With the COVID-19 pandemic driving people into social isolation, causing a financial crisis and creating uncertainty, individuals were at an even greater risk of experiencing negative mental health outcomes. Individuals who identify as women living with diabetes mellitus (DM) of low socioeconomic status (SES) are potentially at increased risk of negative mental health outcomes secondary to health-related risks of COVID-19, as well as financial barriers to access to medications and diabetes-care supplies.
The objective of this scoping review is to investigate how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the mental health of those who identify as women living with DM of low SES including the consequences of public health measures put in place to stop the spread of the virus. The review aims to identify what is known about the impact of COVID-19 on this and identify potential areas for further investigation.
The scoping review protocol was developed with guidance from the framework created by Arksey and O'Malley and refinements from the Joanna Briggs Institute and Levac published studies employing experimental and correlational designs to collect quantitative and/or qualitative data will be considered. Search strategies were developed for the MEDLINE, Embase and PsycINFO databases to identify relevant sources. Article titles and abstracts will be screened for eligibility by two independent reviewers. Full-text review will be conducted by two reviewers with a third reviewer being included if disagreement must be resolved. Data extraction will be conducted by two reviewers, one extraction and one quality check, and a third will resolve conflict if necessary. Data will be synthesised and reported in a narrative structure that provides a thematic analysis of the currently available literature.
As this is a scoping review, there are no ethical approval requirements. There is to be a full publication of findings and analysis in a peer-reviewed journal.
随着新冠疫情导致人们社交隔离、引发金融危机并造成不确定性，个体出现负面心理健康结果的风险更高。那些被认定为患有糖尿病（DM）且社会经济地位（SES）较低的女性，因新冠疫情相关的健康风险，以及获取药物和糖尿病护理用品的经济障碍，其出现负面心理健康结果的风险可能更高。
本范围综述的目的是调查新冠疫情如何影响那些被认定为患有糖尿病且社会经济地位较低的女性的心理健康，包括为阻止病毒传播而采取的公共卫生措施的后果。该综述旨在确定关于新冠疫情对此影响的已知情况，并确定进一步调查的潜在领域。
范围综述方案是在阿克西和奥马利创建的框架指导下制定的，并根据乔安娜·布里格斯研究所和莱瓦克的改进意见进行了完善。将考虑采用实验和相关设计来收集定量和/或定性数据的已发表研究。为MEDLINE、Embase和PsycINFO数据库制定了检索策略，以识别相关来源。文章标题和摘要将由两名独立评审员进行资格筛选。全文评审将由两名评审员进行，如有分歧必须解决，则将第三名评审员纳入。数据提取将由两名评审员进行，一名负责提取，一名负责质量检查，如有必要，第三名评审员将解决冲突。数据将以叙事结构进行综合和报告，对当前可用文献进行主题分析。
由于这是一项范围综述，因此无需伦理批准。研究结果和分析将在同行评审期刊上全文发表。
