War-related migration may deprive people of access to a regular healthcare system and cause new diseases to be battled. Since refugee women are more vulnerable to diseases during this period, protective healthcare services awareness is critical for early disease diagnosis. Following the civil war that triggered the migration of millions of Syrians, an extensive survey was undertaken in coordination with the World Health Organization Country Office in Turkey to explore the health status of Syrian refugees in Turkey. Employing the survey data, we aimed to investigate the determinants of the awareness of protective health services (Pap smear test, mammogram, HIV test) among female Syrian refugees. Logit regression analysis was applied in order to investigate the determinants of the awareness of protective health services among the female refugee population. The results revealed a notably low rate of awareness of protective health services among female Syrian refugees. Furthermore, the association of explanatory variables, including socioeconomic factors, healthcare use, and health literacy with the protective health services awareness, was found to be significant.
与战争相关的移民可能使人们无法获得常规医疗体系的服务,并引发新的疾病需要应对。由于难民妇女在此期间更容易患病,因此提高保护性医疗服务意识对于疾病的早期诊断至关重要。在引发数百万叙利亚人迁移的内战之后,与世界卫生组织土耳其国家办事处协调开展了一项广泛调查,以探究土耳其境内叙利亚难民的健康状况。利用调查数据,我们旨在调查叙利亚女性难民对保护性医疗服务(巴氏涂片检查、乳房X光检查、艾滋病毒检测)的知晓情况的决定因素。为了调查女性难民群体对保护性医疗服务知晓情况的决定因素,应用了逻辑回归分析。结果显示,叙利亚女性难民对保护性医疗服务的知晓率极低。此外,还发现包括社会经济因素、医疗服务利用情况和健康素养在内的解释变量与保护性医疗服务知晓情况之间存在显著关联。
