OBJECTIVE: Health disparities contribute significantly to disease, health outcomes, and access to care. Little is known about the state of health disparities in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery (FPRS). This scoping review aims to synthesize the existing disparities research in FPRS and guide future disparities-related efforts. DATA SOURCES: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science. REVIEW METHODS: We conducted a scoping review in adherence with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews checklist. Our search included all years through March 03, 2023. All peer-reviewed primary literature of any design related to disparities in FPRS was eligible for inclusion. RESULTS: Of the 12283 unique abstracts identified, 215 studies underwent full-text review, and 108 remained for final review. The most frequently examined topics were cleft lip and palate (40.7%), facial trauma (29.6%), and gender affirmation (9.3%). There was limited coverage of other areas. Consideration of race/ethnicity (68.5%), socioeconomic status (65.7%), and gender/sex (40.7%) were most common. Social capital (0%), religion, occupation, and features of relationships were least discussed (0.01% each). The majority of studies were published after 2018 (59.2%) and were of nonprospective designs (95.4%). Most studies focused on disparity detection (80.6%) and few focused on understanding (13.9%) or reducing disparities (5.6%). CONCLUSION: This study captures the existing literature on health disparities in FPRS. Studies are concentrated in a few areas of FPRS and are primarily in the detecting phase of public health research. Our review highlights several gaps and opportunities for future disparities-related focus.
目的:健康差异对疾病、健康结果和医疗服务的可及性有重大影响。面部整形和重建外科(FPRS)领域的健康差异状况知之甚少。本范围综述旨在综合 FPRS 中现有的差异研究,并为未来与差异相关的工作提供指导。
资料来源:PubMed、Embase、Web of Science。
研究方法:我们按照系统评价和荟萃分析扩展的首选报告项目清单进行了范围综述。我们的搜索包括截至 2023 年 3 月 03 日的所有年份。所有与 FPRS 差异相关的设计的同行评审原始文献均符合纳入标准。
结果:在 12283 篇独特的摘要中,有 215 篇进行了全文审查,有 108 篇进入最终审查。研究最多的主题是唇腭裂(40.7%)、面部创伤(29.6%)和性别认同(9.3%)。其他领域的研究则有限。种族/民族(68.5%)、社会经济地位(65.7%)和性别/性(40.7%)是最常见的考虑因素。社会资本(0%)、宗教、职业和关系特征(各占 0.01%)讨论得最少。大多数研究是在 2018 年以后发表的(59.2%),并且是非前瞻性设计(95.4%)。大多数研究侧重于差异检测(80.6%),很少关注理解(13.9%)或减少差异(5.6%)。
结论:本研究涵盖了 FPRS 中健康差异的现有文献。研究集中在 FPRS 的几个领域,主要处于公共卫生研究的检测阶段。我们的综述突出了未来与差异相关的重点的几个差距和机会。
