On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to abortion in . Minors are a vulnerable population with a high risk of unintended pregnancy who are likely to be disproportionately affected by abortion restrictions. Examining the impact of historical abortion restrictions in minors may provide insight into the anticipated effects of the decision. This study is a systematic review examining the impact of parental involvement (PI) laws on minors seeking abortion services. Our review suggests an association between PI laws and decreased abortion rates. Parental involvement laws also may increase pregnancy and birth rates and out-of-state travel for abortion procedures and lead to later abortions, although effects appear to be heterogenous.
2022年6月24日，美国最高法院推翻了堕胎的宪法权利。未成年人是意外怀孕风险较高的弱势群体，很可能受到堕胎限制的影响尤为严重。研究历史上堕胎限制对未成年人的影响，或许能洞察这一裁决的预期效果。本研究是一项系统性综述，考察父母参与（PI）法对寻求堕胎服务的未成年人的影响。我们的综述表明，PI法与堕胎率下降之间存在关联。父母参与法还可能提高怀孕率和生育率，增加前往州外进行堕胎手术的人数，并导致堕胎时间推迟，尽管影响似乎存在异质性。
