Description
Summary:Highlights • Tuberculosis (TB) related stigma is an important social determinant of health that can impact health-seeking practices and illness management. • Research on TB stigma has been conducted predominantly in high incidence countries. • This study aimed to map research in low burden settings. • Few studies included stigma as a substantive topic or theorized stigma as a social determinant of health. • Future research on stigma would benefit from a stronger theoretical underpinning including the intersection with the social determinants.
