This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the associations between weather conditions and physical activity (PA) and sedentary time (ST) in children and adolescents. A systematic search of six databases identified 11,816 articles, of which 26 studies were included in the review. Several weather conditions were included, such as rainfall, temperature, wind speed, day length, sunlight, humidity, snowfall, and clouds. Meta-analyses showed that higher temperatures were associated with more moderate-to-vigorous PA, while lower temperature and heavily rainfall was associated with longer ST. Children and adolescents showed more PA and less ST during favorable weather conditions. Future longitudinal and intervention studies on PA and ST should focus on how weather conditions promote or hinder these behaviors.
本系统评价和荟萃分析旨在探讨天气条件与儿童和青少年身体活动(PA)和久坐时间(ST)之间的关联。通过对六个数据库的系统检索,共识别出 11816 篇文章,其中 26 项研究纳入了综述。纳入了多种天气条件,如降雨量、温度、风速、昼长、阳光、湿度、降雪和云层。荟萃分析显示,较高的温度与更多的中等到剧烈的 PA 相关,而较低的温度和大雨与较长的 ST 相关。儿童和青少年在有利的天气条件下表现出更多的 PA 和更少的 ST。未来关于 PA 和 ST 的纵向和干预研究应重点关注天气条件如何促进或阻碍这些行为。
