A systematic review of randomised controlled trials examining the effectiveness of breast and cervical cancer screening interventions for ethnic minority women
2015, European Journal of Oncology NursingCitation Excerpt :In addition to the above, programmes were carried out in a community setting and used multiple intervention strategies to meet participants' multi-dimensional needs (n = 8), e.g. a combination of access-enhancing strategies and involvement in participants' social networks (Byrd et al., 2013; Hall et al., 2007; Kreuter et al., 2005; Mishra et al., 2009; O'Brien et al., 2010; Taylor et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2012a; Zhu et al., 2002). Outcome measures used to assess programme effectiveness were: knowledge of breast or cervical cancer and screening (n = 5) (Hall et al., 2007; Mishra et al., 2009; O'Brien et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2012b; Zhu et al., 2002) or beliefs about cancer and screening (n = 7) (Byrd et al., 2013; Deavenport et al., 2011; Hall et al., 2007; Mishra et al., 2009; O'Brien et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2012a; Zhu et al., 2002), screening intentions (n = 3) (Deavenport et al., 2011; Taylor et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2012b) and screening uptake (n = 8) (Byrd et al., 2013; Kreuter et al., 2005; Mishra et al., 2009; O'Brien et al., 2010; Taylor et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2012a; Wu and Lin, 2015; Zhu et al., 2002). Age (n = 8), educational level (n = 8) and household income (n = 5) were the common variables reported at baseline (Deavenport et al., 2011; Kreuter et al., 2005; Mishra et al., 2009; O'Brien et al., 2010; Taylor et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2012a; Wu and Lin, 2015; Zhu et al., 2002).
