To map, organize and analyze the articles published in the last five years about AYAs with cancer.
CAPES database and Google Scholar were searched to identify relevant studies from 2015 to February 2020. Eligible articles included empirical or theoretical research, quantitative and/or qualitative studies, targeted AYAs with cancer, addressed different topics related to AYAs such as unmet needs, hospital challenges, interventions or tools based on evidence, as well as political and socioeconomic aspects.
Of the 161 articles analyzed, 74 (46%) discussed the health system, including hospital dynamics, treatment and interventions during treatment; 63 (39.1%) discussed aspects or interventions that influence the quality of life and mental health of AYAs with cancer; 14 (8.7%) discussed issues related to sexual health; and 10 (6.2%) addressed social, economic and demographic problems of AYAs with cancer. Three types of purposes have been identified in the articles: 118 (73.3%) investigated variables in areas related to AYAs with cancer, aiming to increase the understanding of the phenomenon and the needs of AYAs; 18 (11.2%) intervened on the needs of AYAs with cancer through pilot studies or evidence-based interventions; and 22 (13.7%) aimed to evaluate an intervention previously performed or to evaluate an intervention based on evidence.
There is still much to be researched within the last two categories. In the last three years, these categories have been growing gradually and on a small scale.
绘制、组织和分析过去五年中关于癌症青少年患者的文章。
在 CAPES 数据库和 Google Scholar 上搜索，以确定 2015 年至 2020 年 2 月期间的相关研究。合格的文章包括实证或理论研究、定量和/或定性研究、以癌症青少年患者为目标、涉及与青少年患者相关的不同主题的研究，如未满足的需求、医院面临的挑战、基于证据的干预措施或工具，以及政治和社会经济方面。
在分析的 161 篇文章中，74 篇（46%）讨论了卫生系统，包括医院动态、治疗期间的治疗和干预；63 篇（39.1%）讨论了影响癌症青少年患者生活质量和心理健康的方面或干预措施；14 篇（8.7%）讨论了与性健康相关的问题；10 篇（6.2%）涉及癌症青少年患者的社会、经济和人口问题。文章中确定了三种目的：118 篇（73.3%）调查了与癌症青少年患者相关领域的变量，旨在增加对该现象和癌症青少年患者需求的理解；18 篇（11.2%）通过试点研究或基于证据的干预措施干预癌症青少年患者的需求；22 篇（13.7%）旨在评估先前进行的干预或评估基于证据的干预。
在过去的两类中仍有很多需要研究。在过去的三年中，这两类研究逐渐增加，但规模较小。
