Mental health describes an individual's emotional, psychological, and social well-being. The diagnosis of precancers and cancers may result in different mental health manifestations. This review will examine the existing evidence on the effects of diagnosis, management, and prognosis of the four common gynaecological malignancies (ovarian, endometrial, cervical cancer, and endometrial trophoblastic neoplasia) and two precursor lesions (premalignant lesions of the cervix and hydatidiform mole) on the mental health of affected women in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
MATERIALS & METHODS: Electronic databases will be thoroughly searched, all potentially eligible studies will be downloaded and reviewed, and the data mapping will be done to present the study findings.
The outcome of this scoping review may showcase existing information, gaps in knowledge, and the future direction of research on mental health problems associated with common gynaecological cancers in SSA.
心理健康描述的是一个人的情绪、心理和社会幸福感。癌前病变和癌症的诊断可能会导致不同的心理健康表现。本综述将审视关于撒哈拉以南非洲地区(SSA)四种常见妇科恶性肿瘤(卵巢癌、子宫内膜癌、宫颈癌和妊娠滋养细胞肿瘤)以及两种前驱病变(宫颈的癌前病变和葡萄胎)的诊断、治疗和预后对受影响女性心理健康影响的现有证据。
将全面检索电子数据库,下载并审查所有可能符合条件的研究,并进行数据映射以呈现研究结果。
本范围综述的结果可能会展示关于SSA常见妇科癌症相关心理健康问题的现有信息、知识空白以及未来研究方向。
