The literature regarding exercise for people with established anxiety disorders is equivocal. To address this issue, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis investigating the benefits of exercise compared to usual treatment or control conditions in people with an anxiety and/or stress-related disorders. Major electronic databases were searched from inception until December/2015 and a random effect meta-analysis conducted. Altogether, six randomized control trials (RCTs) including 262 adults (exercise n=132, 34.74 [9.6] years; control n=130, 37.34 [10.0] years) were included. Exercise significantly decreased anxiety symptoms more than control conditions, with a moderate effect size (Standardized Mean Difference=-0.582, 95%CI -1.0 to -0.76, p=0.02). Our data suggest that exercise is effective in improving anxiety symptoms in people with a current diagnosis of anxiety and/ or stress-related disorders. Taken together with the wider benefits of exercise on wellbeing and cardiovascular health, these findings reinforce exercise as an important treatment option in people with anxiety/stress disorders.
关于已确诊焦虑障碍患者进行运动锻炼的文献尚无定论。为解决这一问题,我们进行了系统综述和荟萃分析,旨在调查与常规治疗或对照条件相比,运动对伴有焦虑和/或应激相关障碍患者的益处。主要电子数据库从建立之初至 2015 年 12 月进行了检索,并开展了随机效应荟萃分析。共有六项随机对照试验(RCT)纳入了 262 名成年人(运动组 n=132,34.74[9.6]岁;对照组 n=130,37.34[10.0]岁)。运动组比对照组更能显著降低焦虑症状,其效果中等(标准化均数差=-0.582,95%置信区间-1.0 至-0.76,p=0.02)。我们的数据表明,运动对伴有当前焦虑和/或应激相关障碍的人群的焦虑症状具有改善作用。鉴于运动对幸福感和心血管健康的广泛益处,这些发现进一步强调了运动是焦虑/应激障碍患者的重要治疗选择。
