What is Race, Ethnicity, and Clinical Outcome Following Sport-related Concussion: a Systematic Review about?

## Introduction This systematic review examined whether race or ethnicity are associated with clinical outcomes (e.g., time to return to school/sports, symptom duration, vestibular deficits, and neurocognitive functioning) following sport-related concussion among child, adolescent, or college-aged student athletes. Additionally, this review assessed whether the existing literature on this topic incorporated or included broader coverage of social determinants of health. ## Methods The online databases PubMed, MEDLINE^®^, PsycINFO^®^, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched. ## Results A total of 5,118 abstracts were screened and 12 studies met inclusion criteria, including 2,887 youth and young adults. Among the included articles, only 3 studies (25%) examined whether race and ethnicity were associated with outcomes following concussion as a primary objective. None of the studies assessed the association between social determinants of health and outcomes following concussion as a primary objective, although 5 studies (41.7%) addressed a social determinant of health or closely related topic as a secondary objective. ## Discussion Overal
