Abstract

BACKGROUND

Race-based health information is necessary to address disproportionate barriers racial communities face and to achieve optimal health outcomes. In Canada, Black people are disproportionately affected by HIV. There is an emerging body of literature on this topic, but a concise summary is lacking. There is a need to collectively and critically analyze research on HIV in the Black population in Canada to identify knowledge gaps and address this disproportionate burden.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this scoping review is to summarize the evidence on HIV and Black people in Canada. The main outcomes of interest are HIV prevalence, access to care, HIV prevention and treatment, the HIV care cascade, and related HIV outcomes. Through this scoping review, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the existing literature and highlight topics that need more investigation in future research.

METHODS

We will conduct a scoping review of electronic databases using a systematic search strategy for qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods studies reporting on HIV and Black people in Canada. We will conduct our searches in MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Google Scholar for literature published between 1985 and 2023. Gray literature, including government reports, dissertations, and other reports, will be included. Search results will be screened, and the full text of relevant literature will be retrieved. The extraction of data will be conducted independently by 2 reviewers. Consensus meetings will be held to resolve conflicts. Our results will be reported according to the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for the Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews).

RESULTS

The initial title and abstract review identified 447 articles. These articles will be critically appraised, and relevant information will be extracted. Information from these articles will be compared using charts and tables. Screening will start in November 2023, and we anticipate publishing the scoping review in June 2024.

CONCLUSIONS

The findings from this scoping review will help inform policy, practice, and research on HIV and Black people in Canada.

摘要

背景

基于种族的健康信息对于解决种族社区面临的不成比例的障碍以及实现最佳健康结果至关重要。在加拿大，黑人受艾滋病毒的影响尤为严重。关于这一主题的文献不断涌现，但缺乏简洁的总结。有必要对加拿大黑人人群中艾滋病毒的研究进行综合批判性分析，以找出知识空白并应对这一不成比例的负担。

目的

本范围综述的目的是总结加拿大关于艾滋病毒与黑人的证据。主要关注的结果是艾滋病毒流行率、获得护理的机会、艾滋病毒预防和治疗、艾滋病毒护理流程以及相关的艾滋病毒结果。通过本范围综述，我们旨在全面概述现有文献，并突出未来研究中需要更多调查的主题。

方法

我们将使用系统搜索策略对电子数据库进行范围综述，以查找关于加拿大艾滋病毒与黑人的定性、定量或混合方法研究。我们将在MEDLINE、Embase、CINAHL、科学网、EBSCO和谷歌学术中搜索1985年至2023年发表的文献。灰色文献，包括政府报告、学位论文和其他报告，也将被纳入。将对搜索结果进行筛选，并检索相关文献的全文。数据提取将由两名评审员独立进行。将举行共识会议以解决冲突。我们的结果将根据PRISMA-ScR（系统评价和Meta分析扩展的范围综述的首选报告项目）进行报告。
