Physical activity interventions delivered through digital health technology for improving workers' mental health symptoms: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study aimed to clarify the primary preventive effects of physical activity interventions delivered through digital health technology (DHT) on workers' mental health symptoms, and to examine the conditions of attrition and adherence in these interventions.

Methods

We examined randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that analyzed the effects of physical activity interventions delivered through DHT on workers' health outcomes. We included RCTs published in English or Japanese since 2010 and excluded studies that targeted specific diseases or secondary and tertiary prevention. We conducted the search on July 25, 2023, using Cochrane CENTRAL, Embase, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Ichushi-Web, and citation searches. We assessed risk of bias using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool
