Cervical cancer screening is credited with dramatically reducing cervical cancer mortality in the United States. There is a lack of consensus on whether women with behavioral health conditions (mental health or substance use) receive cervical cancer screening at rates similar to women without the co...

description Cervical cancer screening is credited with dramatically reducing cervical cancer mortality in the United States. There is a lack of consensus on whether women with behavioral health conditions (mental health or substance use) receive cervical cancer screening at rates similar to women without the conditions.Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, we searched for articles and abstracts of conference proceedings in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and the EBSCO databases: CINAHL, PsycINFO, Psychosocial and Behavioral Science Collection, Academic Search Premier Databases, and the ProQuest database Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts from January 1, 2000 to July 31, 2020. Eligibility criteria included studies conducted in the United States, published in English, and comparing cervical cancer screening rates of women with and without behavioral health conditions. Of 1,242 unique articles screened, 52 were included in the full text review. And after title/abstract/and full-text review, 14 articles met the eligibility criteria. Six studies examined both mental health and substance use conditions, two studies only examined substance use disorders, and six studies examined only mental health conditions. Substance use disorders were associated with a decreased likelihood of receiving screening. This study yeilded inconclusive findings on the relationship between mental health conditions and cervical cancer screening. More research is needed to better understand the relationship between behavioral health conditions and cervical cancer screening.
