- Gender is a key social determinant of health inequalities.
- Existing health indicators often lack a gender-sensitive and intersectionality-informed approach.
- Accurate health reporting requires nuanced indicators that capture diverse experiences.
Purpose Of The Study
- To conduct a scoping review of gender-sensitive and intersectionality-informed health indicators.
- To map the existing evidence on such indicators for health reporting.
- To support the development of a comprehensive indicator set for German Federal Health Reporting.
Main Methods
- Scoping review following Arksey and O'Malley's framework, extended by Levac et al.
- Systematic database searches (Medline, PsycINFO, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, Cochrane Library) and grey literature search.
- Data extraction and narrative/descriptive synthesis by two independent reviewers.

- The review identifies and maps existing gender-sensitive and intersectionality-informed health indicators.
- Evidence on the application of these indicators in health reporting is synthesized.
- Gaps in the current indicator sets are highlighted.
Conclusions
- Gender-sensitive and intersectionality-informed indicators are crucial for accurate health reporting and promoting gender equality.
- The findings provide a foundation for developing a robust indicator set for German Federal Health Reporting.
- Further development and implementation of these indicators are recommended for effective health policy.

The factors influencing the health-illness continuum can be internal or external and may or may not be under conscious control. They are related to the following eight human dimensions, and each dimension is interrelated to one other.

Physical health is critical for the overall well-being and can be affected by lifestyle, activity level, diet, and behavior. The highest attainable standard of health is a fundamental and universal human right. Consider Lisa, a fifteen-year-old born with congenital...
The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...
Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...
