Mapping Psychosocial Determinants of Loss to Follow-Up Among Drug-resistant Tuberculosis Patients in South Africa: A Scoping Review Protocol [version 1; peer review: 2 not approved] . F1000Research 2025, 14 :1440 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.171890.1 ) First published: 24 Dec 2025, 14 :1440 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.171890.1 ) Latest published: 24 Dec 2025, 14 :1440 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.171890.1 ) Introduction Despite significant progress towards its eradication, tuberculosis (TB) continues to be the principal cause of death from a single infectious agent globally with 1.25 million fatalities in 2023. 1 In many developing nations, TB, a chronic, airborne infection, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis although treatable and preventable, continues to be a major cause of mortality. 2 – 4 This has become a worrisome trend in resource-constrained nations even with the availability of effective treatment for decades. 2 , 5 The Global TB report of the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 10.8 million people were affected by TB in 2023, with an incidence rate of 134 per 100,000 population and Africa alone reported the highest TB infections, accounting for 24%. 1 , 2 Approximately 5% of incident TB cases develop drug-resistant TB (DR-TB). 6 DR-TB develops either as a result of misuse of anti-TB medications or outright infection with a drug-resistant strain. 4 DR-TB is a significant public health challenge globally recognized by the WHO as a threat to achieving the End TB targets. 7 The DR-TB pandemic is characterized by high rates of morbidity, mortality, and poor treatment outcomes and is mainly concentrated in low and middle-income countries including Africa, where there are resource constraints and low TB treatment coverage. 8 DR-TB infected patients face significant economic and social costs and only 33% access quality care. The remaining proportion represents the missing patients otherwise known as loss to follow up (LTFU) and reaching them is a significant public health challenge. 9 LTFU contributes to poor outcomes, leading to continued disease transmission, development of further drug resistance, and increased mortality. Psychosocial determinants including stigma, depression, poverty, social isolation, and lack of family support are increasingly recognized as critical factors influencing LTFU. While several studies have explored these factors in various contexts, the evidence remains fragmented and scattered, necessitating a comprehensive mapping through a scoping review. Rationale for scoping review Drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) remains a significant public health concern in South Africa, with LTFU both pretreatment and on-treatment posing persistent challenges to treatment success. While recent policy and therapeutic advancements, such as the introduction of short all-oral regimens, aim to ease treatment burden, psychosocial barriers to care remain inadequately addressed. Evidence on factors like stigma, depression, substance use, and socioeconomic stressors is fragmented and inconsistently measured, limiting its utility for programmatic action. Given South Africa’s National TB Program’s call for patient-centered, evidence-based strategies, a scoping review is necessary to systematically map the psychosocial determinants of LTFU, clarify definitions and measurement tools, highlight contextual modifiers, and identify implementation gaps. This will support the development of targeted interventions and inform policy design to enhance retention in DR-TB care. Methodology Study design The proposed scoping review will utilize the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines and checklist to enable us make use of literature across study designs and in both peer-reviewed and grey literature. 10 – 12 The study will be accomplished in six key phases ( Figure 1 ). 1. Defining the research question 2. Developing a search strategy 3. Delineating inclusion and exclusion criteria 4. Charting the data 5. Data extraction, analysis and presentation of the results 6. Consultation Figure 1. Six stages of conducting a scoping review. Stage 1: Defining the research question A well-crafted research question allows the exploration of appropriate literature, identifies gaps in knowledge, and the synthesis of evidence thus ensuring the systematic conduct of a scoping review. Hence, the following research questions will be answered in this scoping review: • What psychosocial determinants are associated with pretreatment and on-treatment LTFU among people with DR-TB in African settings? • How are these determinants defined, measured, and reported across study designs and programmatic eras (e.g., pre- vs. post-“short, all-oral” regimens)? • Where are the evidence gaps and what implementation strategies are suggested to address them? To match the study selection with the research issue, this study will employ the Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcomes, and Timeline (PICOT) framework. As there is no comparator in the proposed scoping review, therefore a PIOT framework will apply. Table 1 displays the PIOT framework to be used in this investigation. The research will run for 8 weeks, from 1 November to 31 December 2025, and studies from 2010 to 2025 will be eligible. In December 2010, WHO convened a global consultation and issued its first policy recommending Xpert MTB/RIF for rapid detection of TB and rifampicin resistance, triggering country adoption and large-scale roll-out. South Africa planned national roll-out from 2011. This shift shortened diagnostic delays and altered patient pathways which are key drivers of pretreatment and on-treatment LTFU. This period captures the programmatic era of DR-TB care in South Africa when diagnostic, treatment, and service-delivery changes reshaped the psychosocial context of LTFU. The period also accounts for COVID-19 disruptions and recovery. The pandemic caused major interruptions to TB diagnosis and treatment in South Africa with partial recovery, thereafter, likely amplifying psychosocial and structural risks for LTFU; extending the window through 2025 allows inclusion of the post-pandemic recovery period and the National TB Recovery Plan trajectory. Table 1. PICOT framework for study selection. Criteria P-Population Adult patients aged 18-60 years undergoing treatment of TB, following diagnosis of TB I-Intervention Psychosocial Determinants of Loss to Follow-Up Among Drug-resistant Tuberculosis Patients C-Comparison No comparison group O-Outcome Primary - Identification of psychosocial determinants (e.g., stigma, depression, substance use, social support) associated with LTFU among DR-TB patients. - Characterization of how LTFU and psychosocial determinants are defined and measured across studies. - Secondary outcomes. - Identification of contextual modifiers (e.g., HIV status, gender/age, geographic setting). - Identification of gaps in evidence and recommendations for future research or interventions. T- Timeline 2010 – 2025 Stage 2: Developing a search strategy The strategy will utilize a research-librarian-led electronic search strategy following reviewers’ careful consideration. A comprehensive search strategy will be developed using PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar electronic databases, an all-inclusive search strategy will be developed for peer-reviewed articles and gray literature search focusing on English-language studies published between 2010 and 2025. To allow for the inclusion of appropriate studies, the review team will ensure that curated combination of Boolean operators, keywords and search terms are employed in electronic databases search ( Table 2 ). Table 2. Initial electronic database search results on 20th September 2025. Electronic database Search strings Results PubMed “tuberculosis” [tw] OR “drug-resistant” [Mesh] OR “loss to follow-up” [tw] OR “default*” OR “treatment interruption” [tw] AND “psychosocial determinants” [tw] OR “stigma” [tw] OR “substance use” [tw] OR “social support” [tw] OR “poverty” [tw] OR “food insecurity” [tw] OR “transportation” [tw] AND “South Africa*” [tw] AND (2010/1/1:2025/9/20[pdat])) 2,744 ScienceDirect “tuberculosis” AND “drug-resistant” OR “psychosocial determinants” AND “South Africa 3 Scopus “tuberculosis” AND “drug-resistant” AND “psychosocial determinants” OR “stigma” AND “loss to follow up” AND “South Africa” 11 Google Scholar “Multi-drug tuberculosis” OR “loss to follow-up” OR default OR “treatment interruption” OR “substance use” OR “social support” AND “South Africa” 17,800 Stage 3: Study selection of eligible studies To ensure a systematic and transparent selection process, the PIOT framework will guide the title and abstract screening, with two reviewers (MCH and OOA) working independently. The selection of eligible studies as indicated in Table 3 is expected to be finalized within 8 weeks, in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR checklist. After retrieving all relevant records from the databases, duplicates will be removed using EndNote V.20 (Clarivate). The entire screening process will be conducted using the Covidence systematic review platform to support collaboration between reviewers and ensure consistency. Discrepancies at any stage will be resolved through discussion and, if necessary, consultation with a third reviewer (OMO) to reach consensus. The PRISMA-ScR flowchart will be used to document the study selection, detailing the number of records identified, screened and included. A blank PRISMA-ScR flowchart is shown in Figure 2 . Table 3. Inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria Exclusion criteria Studies reporting on DR-TB patients in English language. Studies reporting on other types of TB (e.g., drug-susceptible TB) or extrapulmonary TB. Studies exploring psychosocial determinants of LTFU, such as social support, stigma, mental health, housing, socioeconomic factors, and patient-provider relationships. Studies that do not address psychosocial factors or LTFU among DR-TB patients. Studies that report at least one psychosocial determinant linked to LTFU/retention (e.g., stigma, depression/anxiety/stress, substance/alcohol, use, beliefs/knowledge, self-efficacy, social/family/peer support, disclosure, gender norms; plus, closely linked social/structural stressors such as poverty, food insecurity, travel distance/costs, migration, homelessness, incarceration). Purely biomedical or pharmacologic predictors (e.g., mutations, drug levels) with no psychosocial link; studies of adherence proxies without an engagement/retention or LTFU outcome. Studies that report any measure of LTFU or disengagement/attrition/“default,” pretreatment (diagnosed but not initiated) or on-treatment (interruption after initiation); with retention measures clearly defined. Studies that do not report LTFU/retention/disengagement (e.g., only culture conversion, cure, or mortality without engagement outcomes). Studies carried out in any province in South Africa, including prisons, mines, refugee/internally displaced persons (IDP) settings, community-based models, primary/tertiary care. Multi-region studies if a South African subset is extractable. Studies conducted outside South Africa; global analyses without separable South African data. Quantitative (cohort, case-control, cross-sectional, quasi-experimental, RCTs if they report relevant outcomes); Qualitative (interviews/focus group discussions (FGDs)/ethnography); mixed-methods; Implementation/program reports; Theses/dissertations with sufficient methods/results. Editorials, opinion pieces, narrative commentaries without empirical data; single-patient case reports not addressing psychosocial determinants; conference abstracts without sufficient data and no linked full report.

Eligibility criteria Stage 4: Data charting process A standardized data charting form will be developed and pilot-tested to ensure clarity, consistency, and suitability for capturing relevant information across studies. The form will be designed to capture essential information as outlined in Table 4 . Table 4. Data charting form. 1 Author(s) 2 Year of publication 3 Title of study 4 Aim of study 5 Study design 6 Study setting/country 7 Study population 8 Age group 9 Intervention characteristics – (stigma, depression, anxiety, social/family support, poverty, food insecurity, substance use, self-efficacy, health beliefs, gender norms) 10 Study outcomes (Reported outcomes: LTFU rates, retention rates, treatment interruption data) 11 Key findings 12 Recommendations from the study Stage 5: Data assessment, summarizing, and presenting the results A descriptive assessment to assess completeness of reporting; variability in LTFU definitions; presence/quality of measurement tools for psychosocial constructs will be performed. Both quantitative and qualitative methods will be utilized in the evaluation of scoping review results. Qualitative analysis will involve using themes to evaluate the data extraction table and develop overarching themes from the literature using tables and graphs that can assist in addressing the research questions and developing future research questions and frameworks emerging from psychosocial determinants of LTFU among DR-TB patients. The extracted data will be systematically organized into a table for easy comparison and analysis, categorizing information by study characteristics, psychosocial determinants of LTFU, health outcomes, adaptation strategies, and study quality. Secondly, quantitatively, a numerical summary using descriptive statistics will be conducted to explore opportunities for future studies across disciplines that may be under-represented in the publications reviewed. Quality assessment of included studies Quality assessment is not a core component of this scoping review, however, the study designs of included articles, qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods will be documented to enhance transparency and consistency in reporting. This descriptive approach will aid in contextualizing the strength of the evidence base and in highlighting methodological gaps. No formal risk of bias assessment will be conducted as obtained in standard scoping review methodology. Stage 6: Consultation Stakeholders will not be involved in the design of this scoping review however, consultation with relevant actors including researchers, policymakers, and practitioners will be undertaken to validate the findings and support their interpretation for evidence-informed decision-making and practical application. Discussion By applying a PICOT-aligned approach, comprehensive multi-database and grey literature searches, dual-reviewer screening, and a piloted data-charting framework, the scoping review will map existing evidence and clarify how individual, interpersonal, community, and system/structural factors including stigma, mental health, substance use, social support, poverty, food insecurity, and distance/transport costs shape both pretreatment and on-treatment disengagement from care. The synthesis, reported in line with PRISMA-ScR, will prioritize transparency in definitions (especially heterogeneous LTFU thresholds), measurement tools for psychosocial constructs, and contextual modifiers such as HIV co-infection, regimen era (long vs. short all-oral), decentralization, and urban–rural setting. This review will inform National TB Program policies and frontline implementation, guide the design and target of patient-support packages and identify priorities for future research. The scope intentionally emphasizes breadth over causal inference and will not conduct meta-analysis; the review will document methodological limitations and reporting gaps to enable subsequent focused systematic reviews or primary studies. Through an optional stakeholder consultation with program managers, clinicians, community health workers, and patient representatives, the findings will be grounded in operational realities and ready for uptake. A limitation of this review is that the studies are limited to South Africa, given the high TB prevalence and incidence rates and it remains one of the global high-burden countries for TB. Overall, this protocol positions the review to deliver actionable, context-specific intelligence that can reduce LTFU, improve DR-TB treatment success, and accelerate progress toward South Africa’s End TB targets. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval is not required for this scoping review. The findings of this review will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and academic presentations at local, national and international conferences. Policymakers and stakeholders will also benefit from reports generated from this study. Stakeholder consultation including National Tuberculosis Program managers, DR-TB clinicians/nurses, community health workers (CHWs), and patient representatives across provinces in South Africa will be carried out to validate findings and refine recommendations.

Continue reading READ ALL Manuscript Review This report refers to the analysis of the scoping review titled “Mapping Psychosocial Determinants of Loss to Follow-Up Among Drug-resistant Tuberculosis Patients in South Africa: A Scoping Review Protocol,” which aims to map and synthesize the evidence available in the literature regarding the proposed theme, using the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological framework through high sensitivity. The study presents scientific importance by addressing a theme of high relevance to public health; however, important points that compromise its reproducibility need to be revised. Qualitative Analysis of the Manuscript Title: Adequate Abstract: OK Keywords: None Introduction It is observed that the authors present consolidated data regarding the number of tuberculosis deaths in 2023. However, a predictive estimate for the same year is also presented subsequently. Considering that epidemiological bulletins with consolidated data for this period have already been published, the inclusion of estimates becomes redundant. It is recommended to revise this information and verify the adequacy of the bibliographic reference used. Although the introduction presents the general epidemiology of tuberculosis, specific data regarding drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) are not described. It is suggested to include epidemiological information regarding this condition to highlight the magnitude and relevance of the problem within the investigated context. Additionally, drug resistance does not result exclusively from the inadequate use of therapeutic regimens. Other factors, such as reinfection, loss to follow-up, and programmatic failures in disease management, also contribute to the emergence of DR-TB. It is recommended to revise this passage to account for the complexity of the determinants involved. For the conduct of a scoping review, it is essential that the authors present evidence from a preliminary literature search to demonstrate the existence of knowledge gaps that justify the original nature of the investigation. It is suggested to make this gap more explicit in the introduction. After the first definition of an acronym, it is not necessary to repeat its full form throughout the text. Thus, it is recommended to standardize the use of the acronym DR-TB after its first occurrence. The meaning attributed by the authors to the term “pre-treatment period” is also unclear. It is suggested to conceptually clarify this period to avoid interpretative ambiguities. In the sentence where the authors state that “psychosocial barriers to care remain inadequately addressed,” it is important to specify what these barriers are and how they have been neglected in the literature. Such detailing will contribute to clarifying the knowledge gap that underlies the research question. Furthermore, throughout the introduction, statements such as “evidence remains fragmented,” “inconsistently measured,” and “barriers remain inadequately addressed” are used. Such statements are critical in nature and, therefore, must be supported by previously published references or reviews that substantiate these findings. Methodology Study Design Step 6 presented by the authors does not correspond to the methodology for scoping reviews and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). This step actually refers to the sections on synthesis of evidence, limitations, and conclusions. It is recommended to revise the methodological organization to maintain adherence to the methodological frameworks of scoping reviews. Stage 1 – Defining the Research Question The three research questions presented seem to address related aspects, but in a fragmented way. It is recommended to reformulate a more comprehensive research question that encompasses the constituent elements of the three hypotheses raised. Additionally, the PICOT (or PIOT) strategy assumes the presence of an intervention, which does not apply adequately to the design of scoping reviews. For this type of review, it is recommended to use the PCC (Population, Concept, and Context) strategy, according to the methodological guidelines of the Joanna Briggs Institute. Stage 2 – Developing the Search Strategy The search strategy described for the databases must be applied equivalently to grey literature sources. If a preliminary search had been conducted and described in the introduction, the authors would likely have greater clarity regarding the scope of evidence available in the literature, which would contribute to the refinement of the search strategy. Quality Assessment of Included Studies Although methodological quality assessment is not mandatory in scoping reviews, performing it can add robustness to the analysis of the included evidence. In this sense, it is recommended to consider the use of specific instruments for methodological quality assessment, including tools aimed at mixed-methods studies. Discussion Meta-analysis is an analytical technique typical of systematic reviews with quantitative synthesis of results using only one methodology. In scoping reviews, the central objective consists of mapping the existing literature, identifying knowledge gaps, and characterizing the nature of the available evidence, especially in broad or emerging fields of investigation. Therefore, it is recommended to revise this section to align the discussion with the objectives and methodological assumptions of a scoping review, as it is not restricted to documenting methodological limitations and reporting gaps to allow for focused systematic reviews or subsequent primary studies. Overall, the manuscript addresses a relevant theme in the field of drug-resistant tuberculosis control. However, after a detailed analysis of the text, substantial conceptual and methodological limitations are observed that compromise the study's scientific consistency. In particular, inconsistencies are identified in the theoretical foundation of the introduction, an absence of a clear delimitation of the knowledge gap that would justify conducting the review, and inadequacies in the methodological conduct of the scoping review. Among other aspects, the inappropriate use of the PICOT strategy stands out, as it is more suitable for systematic reviews focused on interventions, to the detriment of the PCC strategy recommended for scoping reviews. Additionally, there are inconsistencies in the description of the methodological steps regarding the PRISMA-ScR and Joanna Briggs Institute frameworks, as well as limitations in the search strategy and the delimitation of the research question. Considering the set of these limitations, it is understood that the manuscript, in its current form, presents structural and methodological weaknesses that hinder its alignment with the scientific standards expected for indexing. Therefore, it is recommended that the manuscript not be accepted for indexing at this time. Is the rationale for, and objectives of, the study clearly described? Partly Is the study design appropriate for the research question? Partly Are sufficient details of the methods provided to allow replication by others? Partly Are the datasets clearly presented in a useable and accessible format? Yes Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed. I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to state that I do not consider it to be of an acceptable scientific standard, for reasons outlined above.
