Abstract:
Physical inactivity represents a significant public health challenge globally. Mobile applications, particularly those utilizing augmented reality (AR), have emerged as innovative tools for promoting physical activity. However, a systematic evaluation of their efficacy is essential. This systematic review aims to evaluate and synthesize the evidence regarding the effectiveness and benefits of mobile applications with augmented reality in enhancing physical activity and improving health outcomes. A comprehensive search was conducted in Scopus, PubMed, WOS, and the Cochrane Library databases following PRISMA guidelines. Observational and interventional studies evaluating AR mobile applications for physical exercise were included, without restrictions on publication date or language. The search terms included \"Mobile Applications\", \"Augmented Reality\", \"Physical Fitness\", \"Exercise Therapy\", and \"Health Behavior\". The methodological quality was assessed using the ROBINS tool. The review identified twelve eligible studies encompassing 5,534,661 participants. The findings indicated significant increases in physical activity and improvements in mental health associated with the use of AR applications, such as Pokémon GO. However, potential risk behaviors were also noted. The evidence suggests that AR interventions can effectively promote physical activity and enhance health. Nonetheless, further research is needed to address limitations and optimize their efficacy. Future interventions should be tailored to diverse cultural contexts to maximize benefits and mitigate risks. AR mobile applications hold promise for promoting physical activity and improving health outcomes. Strategies to optimize their effectiveness and address identified risks should be explored to fully realize their potential.
摘要:
缺乏身体活动是全球重大的公共卫生挑战。移动应用,特别是那些利用增强现实(AR)的人,已经成为促进体育活动的创新工具。然而,对其功效进行系统评估至关重要。本系统评价旨在评估和综合有关增强现实移动应用程序在增强身体活动和改善健康结果方面的有效性和益处的证据。在Scopus进行了全面搜索,PubMed,WOS,和科克伦图书馆数据库遵循PRISMA指南。包括评估AR移动应用于体育锻炼的观察性和介入性研究,不受发布日期或语言的限制。搜索词包括“移动应用程序”,“增强现实”,“身体健康”,“运动疗法”,和“健康行为”。使用ROBINS工具评估方法学质量。审查确定了12项符合条件的研究,包括5,534,661名参与者。研究结果表明,与使用AR应用相关的体育锻炼和心理健康的改善显着增加,如神奇宝贝GO。然而,还注意到潜在的危险行为。证据表明,AR干预措施可以有效促进身体活动并增进健康。尽管如此,需要进一步的研究来解决局限性并优化其疗效.未来的干预措施应针对不同的文化背景进行调整,以最大限度地提高收益并减轻风险。AR移动应用程序有望促进身体活动和改善健康结果。应探索优化其有效性和解决已识别风险的策略,以充分发挥其潜力。
