Whole Body Vibration (WBV) is a popular and a purported alternative to physical activity to reduce body fat, but reports of efficacy are inconsistent. We aimed to describe the efficacy of WBV therapy for reducing fat mass in the adult general population. A systematic search was conducted using Medline, Embase, Cochrane, CINAHL, and PubMed up to March 27, 2019. Studies, which evaluated the effects of WBV on fat mass (%/kg) as a primary or secondary outcome, were considered for inclusion. Of 2,418 studies, after title and abstract screening, 45 articles underwent full-text screening. Seven controlled trials with a total of 280 subjects were included in the systematic review. The meta-analyses were performed for six studies based on reported fat mass (%/kg) changes in the intervention and control groups. The mean change for total fat mass per kg and % body fat were -0.76 (95% CI: -1.42, -0.09) and -0.61 (95% CI: -1.51, 0.13) respectively. This systematic review and meta-analyses showed a significant effect of WBV on total fat mass (kg), however clinically insignificant effects of 6-24 weeks of WBV therapy on % body fat. Longer duration studies with adequate sample sizes are required to determine the efficacy of WBV therapy.
全身振动（WBV）是一种广受欢迎的、据称可替代体育活动以减少体脂的方法，但关于其功效的报道并不一致。我们旨在描述WBV疗法对成年普通人群减少脂肪量的功效。截至2019年3月27日，使用Medline、Embase、Cochrane、CINAHL和PubMed进行了系统检索。评估WBV对脂肪量（%/kg）影响作为主要或次要结局的研究被纳入考虑。在2418项研究中，经过标题和摘要筛选后，45篇文章进行了全文筛选。系统评价纳入了7项共280名受试者的对照试验。基于干预组和对照组报告的脂肪量（%/kg）变化，对6项研究进行了荟萃分析。每千克总脂肪量和体脂百分比的平均变化分别为-0.76（95%CI：-1.42，-0.09）和-0.61（95%CI：-1.51，0.13）。这项系统评价和荟萃分析表明WBV对总脂肪量（kg）有显著影响，然而，6至24周的WBV疗法对体脂百分比的影响在临床上不显著。需要进行样本量充足的长期研究来确定WBV疗法的功效。
