Abstract

BACKGROUND

According to the Gambling Commission, in 2018, almost half of the general population aged 16 and over had participated in gambling in the 4 weeks before being surveyed. Such surveys suggest that the proportion of people who are classed as 'problem' gamblers is relatively small; however, this may be related to the ways data are collected and gambling behaviour is classified. Concern about the harms associated with gambling is rising, and in response, Public Health England (PHE) has initiated this review to identify the harms associated with this activity. Harms to the gambler, their close associates and the wider society will all be included.

METHODS

Abbreviated systematic review processes will be employed. Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, Ovid Psycinfo, NICE Evidence and EBSCO SocIndex; a range of websites (for grey literature); and reference lists of included studies will be searched. Experts will be asked to identify other relevant literature. Literature published in years 2005-2019, published in English, from a country within the Organisation for Economic Development (OECD) and following an observational, qualitative or systematic review design will be included. AMSTAR2 (systematic reviews), the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (observational studies) and the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) qualitative checklist (qualitative studies) will be used to assess the risk of bias. A narrative synthesis will be used to summarise the results. The body of evidence will also be assessed according to the principles laid out in the CERQual approach.

DISCUSSION

This protocol provides details of the framework that has been set up to guide this systematic review. The results of this review will provide an extensive assessment of the breadth and magnitude of harms associated with gambling. This will be one of the most comprehensive reviews of gambling-related harms undertaken to date.

摘要

背景

根据赌博委员会的数据，2018 年，在接受调查的 16 岁及以上的普通人群中，有近一半在过去 4 周内参与过赌博。此类调查表明，被归类为“问题”赌徒的比例相对较小；然而，这可能与数据收集方式和赌博行为分类有关。人们对与赌博相关的危害的担忧日益增加，为此，英国公共卫生署（PHE）启动了此项审查，以确定与该活动相关的危害。赌徒、他们的亲密伙伴和更广泛的社会所遭受的危害都将包括在内。

方法

采用简化的系统评价程序。检索 Ovid MEDLINE、Ovid Embase、Ovid Psycinfo、NICE Evidence 和 EBSCO SocIndex；搜索一系列网站（用于检索灰色文献）；并检索纳入研究的参考文献列表。将请专家确定其他相关文献。纳入的文献为 2005 年至 2019 年发表的、发表于英语国家、来自经济合作与发展组织（OECD）国家、采用观察性、定性或系统评价设计的文献。将使用 AMSTAR2（系统评价）、纽卡斯尔-渥太华量表（观察性研究）和批判性评估技能计划（CASP）定性检查表（定性研究）来评估偏倚风险。将采用叙述性综合法来总结结果。根据 CERQual 方法中规定的原则，还将对证据体进行评估。
