ABSTRACT
A methodologically robust approach to synthesize relevant knowledge in health literature is the scoping review, which is used to answer broader questions (e.g., "What is known about this concept?") and can be used to map evidence for research and practice decision-making. This paper discussed the importance of scoping reviews as a methodological approach for knowledge synthesis in Brazil's health literature. Definitions and methodological steps were discussed. We examined 45 scoping reviews that were published in Brazil's journals or available as thesis or dissertations to dis-cuss their content and methodological characteristics. Recommendations for authors were presented in order to improve the planning, executing and reporting of further scoping reviews in Brazil. This will help Brazilian researchers and health professionals to understand when and how scoping reviews can be helpful for knowledge synthesis on health topics, including for physical activity and health research area
RESUMO
Uma abordagem metodologicamente robusta para sintetizar a literatura relevante em saúde é a revisão de escopo, a qual é utilizada para responder questões abrangentes (por exemplo, "O que se conhece sobre um de-terminado conceito em saúde?") e pode ser utilizada para mapear evidências para a tomada de decisão prática e em pesquisa. Este artigo discutiu a importância de revisões de escopo como uma abordagem metodológica para síntese de conhecimento da literatura em saúde no Brasil. As definições e as etapas metodológicas foram discutidas. Um sumário das 45 revisões de escopo que foram publicadas em periódicos brasileiros ou como tese/dissertação foi apresentado para discutir seu conteúdo e suas características metodológicas. Recomendações para os autores foram apresentadas para melhorar o planejamento, execução e descrição de revisões de escopo a serem realizadas no Brasil. Este estudo pode ajudar pesquisadores e profissionais de saúde brasileiros a compreender quando e como revisões de escopo podem ser úteis na síntese de evidências, incluindo para o campo de pesquisas em atividade física e saúde
