A systematic content review 2020-04-15 .txt text/plain 5148 249 37 A scoping content review was performed to determine the relationship between social determinants of health and otitis media in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children as described by peer-reviewed and grey literature. Despite consensus that social determinants play a key role in the high rates of otitis media in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, the majority of intervention studies within the literature are focussed on biomedical approaches such as research on vaccines and antibiotics. [14] The social determinants of health framework identifies three key areas of health for Aboriginal populations, with the literature addressing 'housing, employment, education and income' most frequently (32%) in relation to high rates of OM in Aboriginal children. Although the literature mentions various social determinants that are consistent with the framework (e.g. housing, education, employment, community engagement, culture and history), none of the included articles evaluated these key areas of Aboriginal health with the objective to establish effective social, environmental, political or cultural-focussed interventions for OM. ./cache/cord-009604-pdctikjg.txt ./txt/cord-009604-pdctikjg.txt
