الوصف: Patient navigation has served as a useful intervention to reduce cancer disparities among diverse ethnic groups. Previous studies have consistently shown the effectiveness of patient navigation in reducing cancer disparities for ethnic minorities; however, few studies have been conducted for cancer screening behaviors focusing on the Asian population. This study aims to identify the overall effectiveness of patient navigation in cancer screening behaviors among Asian Americans through meta-analyses. In addition, this study examines the moderating effects of the type of cancers on cancer screening behaviors.For data analyses, we selected 15 studies through a systematic review and meta-analyses, searching the databases of PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane Library. Random-effects models were used for meta-analyses.The results showed that Asian Americans who received patient navigation were more likely to participate in cancer screening behaviors than those who did not receive patient navigation regardless of the type of cancer. Publication bias was tested using a funnel plot, meta-regression, and Failsafe-N. No notable publication bias was found.This study can provide comprehensive evidence regarding the overall effectiveness of patient navigation in cancer screening behaviors of Asian Americans.
