In the midst of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there are many ways to communicate hygiene measures, such as memes and stickers that are widely used on social networks. We carried out a systematic review in order to determine the impact of stickers and memes as tools to face the COVID-19 pandemic, following the PRISMA guide. The search was carried out in scientific databases (MEDLINE / PubMed, ScientiDirect, Scielo, LILACS, and Latindex), and in public pre-publication servers (bioRxiv, SocArXiv, medRxiv and Preprints). The publications were identified using the terms (((meme) OR (sticker)) AND ((COVID-19) OR (SARS-COV-2)) AND (WhatsApp)) and the corresponding translations for Spanish and Portuguese. In the initial search, 8434 studies were obtained, 7749 in Preprints, 446 in SocArXiv, 145 in ScientDirect, 82 in medRxiv, and 12 in PubMed. No studies were found in LILACS, Latindex, Scielo, or bioRxiv. Of the 51 studies included as eligible, all were eliminated for not meeting the study inclusion criteria. The majority (40 studies) were eliminated as studies were publications related to the social aspects related to COVID-19, but did not develop an analysis of stickers or memes. No studies were identified that met the inclusion criteria related to the role of stickers and memes as tools to face the COVID-19 pandemic. More studies are needed to estimate its role as a means of communication in health.
在 2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行期间，有许多方法可以传达卫生措施，例如在社交网络上广泛使用的模因和贴纸。我们按照 PRISMA 指南进行了系统评价，以确定贴纸和模因作为应对 COVID-19 大流行的工具的影响。在科学数据库（MEDLINE / PubMed、ScientiDirect、Scielo、LILACS 和 Latindex）和公共预印本服务器（bioRxiv、SocArXiv、medRxiv 和 Preprints）中进行了搜索。使用术语（（（模因）或（贴纸））和（（COVID-19）或（SARS-COV-2））和（WhatsApp））以及西班牙语和葡萄牙语的相应翻译来识别出版物。在最初的搜索中，获得了 8434 项研究，其中 7749 项在预印本中，446 项在 SocArXiv 中，145 项在 ScientiDirect 中，82 项在 medRxiv 中，12 项在 PubMed 中。在 LILACS、Latindex、Scielo 或 bioRxiv 中没有发现研究。在 51 项符合条件的研究中，所有研究均因不符合研究纳入标准而被排除在外。大多数（40 项）研究因与 COVID-19 相关的社会方面的出版物而被排除在外，但没有对贴纸或模因进行分析。没有发现符合纳入标准的研究，即贴纸和模因作为应对 COVID-19 大流行的工具的作用。需要更多的研究来评估其作为健康传播手段的作用。
