title = "Reflections on using secondary analyses to investigate intervention-generated-inequalities in systematic reviews",
abstract = "Systematic reviews are used in public health to assess the effectiveness of interventions that may target health outcomes and behaviors. They provide one resource that researchers can use to investigate {\textquoteleft}intervention-generated-inequalities{\textquoteright}, by determining whether interventions are of greater benefit to advantaged groups in the population. This case study reflects on a secondary analysis of studies included in two Cochrane systematic reviews to see if interventions affect the outcomes differently for participants dependent on their socioeconomic background. Through conducting subgroup analyses of a selection of studies, I investigated whether public health interventions increase or decrease inequalities among adolescents. There are a number of challenges to this approach, including accessing the necessary data and lack of reporting of demographic characteristics needed to investigate inequalities. ",
