OBJECTIVE: Self-monitoring is a core component of behavioral obesity treatment, but it is unknown how digital health has been used for self-monitoring, what engagement rates are achieved in these interventions, and how self-monitoring and weight loss are related. METHODS: This systematic review examined digital self-monitoring in behavioral weight loss interventions among adults with overweight or obesity. Six databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, PsycInfo, CINAHL, and ProQuest Dissertations & Theses) were searched for randomized controlled trials with interventions ≥ 12 weeks, weight outcomes ≥ 6 months, and outcomes on self-monitoring engagement and their relationship to weight loss. RESULTS: Thirty-nine studies from 2009 to 2019 met inclusion criteria. Among the 67 interventions with digital self-monitoring, weight was tracked in 72% of them, diet in 81%, and physical activity in 82%. Websites were the most common self-monitoring modality, followed by mobile applications, wearables, electronic scales, and, finally, text messaging. Few interventions had digital self-monitoring engagement rates ≥ 75% of days. Rates were higher in digital- than in paper-based arms in 21 out of 34 comparisons and lower in just 2. Interventions with counseling had similar rates to standalone interventions. Greater digital self-monitoring was linked to weight loss in 74% of occurrences. CONCLUSIONS: Self-monitoring via digital health is consistently associated with weight loss in behavioral obesity treatment.
目的:自我监测是行为肥胖治疗的核心组成部分,但尚不清楚数字健康在自我监测中是如何使用的,这些干预措施的参与率是多少,以及自我监测与体重减轻的关系如何。
方法:本系统评价检查了行为减肥干预中成年人超重或肥胖的数字自我监测。六个数据库(PubMed、Embase、Scopus、PsycInfo、CINAHL 和 ProQuest Dissertations & Theses)中搜索了干预措施≥12 周、体重结果≥6 个月、自我监测参与情况及其与体重减轻关系的随机对照试验。
结果:2009 年至 2019 年的 39 项研究符合纳入标准。在 67 项具有数字自我监测功能的干预措施中,有 72%的研究监测体重,81%的研究监测饮食,82%的研究监测身体活动。网站是最常见的自我监测方式,其次是移动应用程序、可穿戴设备、电子秤,最后是短信。很少有干预措施的数字自我监测参与率≥75%的天数。在 34 项比较中有 21 项数字组的参与率高于纸质组,只有 2 项低于纸质组。有咨询的干预措施与独立干预措施的参与率相似。74%的情况下,更多的数字自我监测与体重减轻有关。
结论:在行为肥胖治疗中,通过数字健康进行自我监测与体重减轻始终相关。
