We performed a systematic review, and the results were reported according to the PRISMA-S checklist. Relevant studies were searched in health-related electronic databases, and selected according to the inclusion criteria. Sixteen studies with various study designs were identified. The majority (68%) were conducted in India. Lay people, community leaders, and volunteers were the most common groups of community members (12\/16,75%). Overall, the majority (13\/16, 81%) were at the \u2018moderate level\u2019 of engagement in research context mainly by \u2018collaboration\u2019 in \u2018developing methodology\u2019 \u2018collaboration\u2019 in data collection and \u2018collaboration\u2019 for \u2018dissemination of findings. The common barriers to the community engagement were lack of involvement of participating bodies and technology-related issues. In conclusion, the insufficient description of the community engagement process in the studies limits a deeper understanding and analysis of the issue. Future well-designed prospective studies with attention to the description of mechanisms of engagement, facilitating the whole process and reporting the community level outcome are recommended.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pgph.0001226","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,17]],"date-time":"2023-01-17T18:28:18Z","timestamp":1673980098000},"page":"e0001226","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pgph.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Community engagement in health services research on elimination of lymphatic filariasis: A systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"3","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3425-7149","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Cho","family":"Naing","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2143-8629","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Norah Htet","family":"Htet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Htar Htar","family":"Aung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maxine A.","family":"Whittaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"pgph.0001226.ref001","article-title":"Overcoming the global burden of neglected tropical diseases.","author":"D-A Alvarez-Hern\u00e1ndez","year":"2020","journal-title":"Therapeutic Advances in Infectious Disease."},{"journal-title":"Investing to overcome the global impact of neglected tropical diseases: third WHO report on neglected diseases","year":"2015","author":"WHO","key":"pgph.0001226.ref002"},{"key":"pgph.0001226.ref003","unstructured":"WHO.
