The recent COVID-19 pandemic has imposed a general lockdown in Italy, one of the most affected countries at the beginning of the outbreak, between 9 March and 3 May 2020. As a consequence, Italian citizens were confined at home for almost two months, an unprecedented situation, which could have negative effects on both psychological and physical health. The aim of this study was to review the published papers concerning the effects of the lockdown on physical activity and the consequences on general health. As expected, most studies highlighted a significant reduction in the amount of performed physical activity compared to before lockdown, in both the general population and in individuals with chronic conditions. This fact had negative consequences on both general health, in terms of increased body mass, and on specific chronic conditions, especially obesity and neurological diseases.
最近的 COVID-19 大流行在意大利实施了全面封锁,意大利是疫情爆发初期受影响最严重的国家之一,封锁时间为 2020 年 3 月 9 日至 5 月 3 日。因此,意大利公民被禁闭在家中将近两个月,这种前所未有的情况可能对心理和身体健康都产生负面影响。本研究旨在综述有关封锁对体育活动的影响以及对一般健康的后果的已发表论文。正如预期的那样,与封锁前相比,大多数研究都表明普通人群和患有慢性疾病的人群的体育活动量明显减少。这一事实对一般健康状况(体重增加)以及对特定的慢性疾病(尤其是肥胖和神经疾病)都产生了负面影响。
