地理流动，即个人或人口的流动，可能会增加个人感染或传播传染病的风险，包括艾滋病毒、结核病、疟疾和新冠肺炎。许多研究通过自我报告的旅行史或使用GPS追踪器收集了关于短期流动性的信息，但在全球卫生研究中还没有对这种地理流动性进行一致的概念化和可操作性。该协议旨在描述和综合衡量短期流动性的不同方法。我们将在三个数据库(PubMed、Embase和Global Health)中搜索同行评议的文章。去掉重复项后，两名评审员将首先筛选标题和摘要，然后进行全文筛选。我们将包括在传染病方面衡量个人流动性的研究，包括临床试验、流行病学研究和登记数据分析。可通过审查选定论文中的参考文献来确定要纳入的其他文章。我们将总结数据收集的方法(GPS追踪器、手机、回溯性自我报告、旅行日记等)和使用的具体措施(过夜旅行、第二居所、区外旅行等)。这项研究包括从公开可获得的材料中审查和提取现有数据，因此不需要伦理批准。这项研究的结果将提交同行评议的出版物，并可能在相关的全球卫生会议上公布。
Geographical mobility, the movement of individuals or populations, may increase an individual’s risk of acquiring or transmitting infectious diseases, including HIV, tuberculosis, malaria and COVID-19. Many studies have collected information on short-term mobility through self-reported travel histories or using GPS trackers, but there has been no consistent conceptualisation and operationalisation of such geographical mobility in global health research. This protocol aims to describe and synthesise different approaches to measuring short-term mobility. We will search three databases (PubMed, Embase and Global Health) for peer-reviewed articles. After removing duplicates, two reviewers will first screen the titles and abstracts and then proceed to full-text screening. We will include studies that measure mobility at the individual level in the context of infectious diseases, including clinical trials, epidemiological studies and analyses of register data. Additional articles for inclusion may be identified through review of references in selected papers. We will summarise the method of data collection (GPS trackers, cellphones, retrospective self-report, travel journal, etc) and the specific measures used (overnight travel, having a secondary residence, travel outside of district, etc). This study consists of reviewing and abstracting existing data from publicly available materials, and therefore does not require ethical approval. The results of this study will be submitted for peer reviewed publication and may be presented at a relevant global health conference.
