在过去二十年中，性少数群体和性别少数群体(SGM)青年的健康不平等现象保持不变或扩大，突出表明需要采取新的办法来促进健康公平。由于以下原因，必须将复杂系统科学(CS)技术加入我们的医疗机构：复杂系统科学技术可以模拟SGM青年健康结果及其多层次原因之间关系中固有的循环反馈环，从而加强现实世界复杂性在科学模型中的整合；复杂系统科学技术可以模拟多种假设干预措施，从而确定未来具有巨大潜在影响的干预措施。我们描述了四种有前景的促进SGM青年健康公平的CSS技术。
Over the past two decades, sexual and gender minority (SGM) youth health inequities have remained the same or widened, highlighting the need for new approaches to foster health equity. Complex systems science (CSS) techniques must be added to our armamentarium because of the following: CSS techniques can model cyclical feedback loops inherent in the relationships between SGM youth health outcomes and their multilevel causes, thereby enhancing the integration of real-world complexity in scientific models; and CSS can simulate multiple hypothetical interventions, thereby identifying future interventions with great potential impact. We describe four promising CSS techniques for advancing SGM youth health equity.
