A total of 91 articles were identified through PubMed, PsycINFO, and CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature) databases. Fifteen articles were selected for data extraction, which met the criteria for including Black\/African American women, discussing breast cancer care among both racial and sexual minorities, and being a peer-reviewed article.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The 15 articles were primarily within urban contexts, and defined sexual minorities as lesbian or bisexual women. Across all the studies, Black sexual minority women were highly under-represented, and key conclusions are not fully applicable to Black sexual minority women. Sexual minority women had a higher prevalence of breast cancer risk factors (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">i.e.<\/jats:italic>\n                      , nulliparity, fewer mammograms, higher alcohol intake, and lower oral contraceptive use).
