The first Uruguay's Report Card in 2018 based on the Global Matrix initiative showed the lack of information on physical activity in children and adolescents. This study mapped and examined the available evidence on physical activity-related indicators based on Uruguay's 2022 Report Card.
The scoping review was reported using the Joanna Briggs Institute and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. A comprehensive literature search was performed for the period between 2018 and 2021, including electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, LILACS, Scielo, and Latindex), gray literature (Google Scholar, open access thesis, relevant websites of State-agencies and International Organizations), national and regional relevant journals, and reference lists of key texts. Two researchers independently conducted both the selection and data-charting process. Data items from each paper were charted based on the Population, Concept, and Context elements reflected in the objective of the review. A narrative synthesis and network plots were conducted to summarize the evidence.
A total of 20 papers were included in this review, consisting of four peer-reviewed scientific papers, three bachelor's theses, four official documents of State-agencies, four Government reports, of which three included national surveys, and five laws. Strengths, weaknesses, and knowledge gaps were identified from the available evidence. We synthesized main challenges such as publishing scientific studies, establishing cross-national and cross-sectoral collaborations in research projects, generating high-quality data, reporting information on social inequality indicators that influence equitable distribution, or increasing access to public information. Our results support early emerging and growth research on this topic. However, despite existing papers on physical activity-related indicators in Uruguayan youths, the lack of high-quality evidence remains clear.
The findings of this scoping review provide the best available evidence for identifying and overcoming the challenges of physical activity-related indicators research in Uruguay. The methodological framework used could be useful for countries involved in future editions of the Global Matrix initiative.

2018 年，乌拉圭根据全球矩阵倡议发布了第一份报告卡，显示了儿童和青少年身体活动信息的缺乏。本研究根据乌拉圭 2022 年的报告卡，绘制并检查了与身体活动相关指标的现有证据。
本研究采用 Joanna Briggs 研究所和系统评价扩展的首选报告项目进行了范围综述指南。在 2018 年至 2021 年期间进行了全面的文献检索，包括电子数据库（PubMed、Web of Science、LILACS、Scielo 和 Latindex）、灰色文献（Google Scholar、开放获取论文、国家机构和国际组织的相关网站）、国家和地区相关期刊以及关键文本的参考文献列表。两名研究人员独立进行了选择和数据图表制作过程。根据审查目标反映的人口、概念和背景要素，从每篇论文中提取数据项。进行了叙述性综合和网络图分析，以总结证据。
本综述共纳入 20 篇论文，包括 4 篇同行评议的科学论文、3 篇学士论文、4 份国家机构的官方文件、4 份政府报告，其中 3 份报告包括全国性调查，5 份法律。从现有证据中确定了优势、劣势和知识差距。我们综合了主要挑战，例如发表科学研究、在研究项目中建立跨国界和跨部门合作、生成高质量数据、报告影响公平分配的社会不平等指标信息，或增加对公共信息的获取。我们的结果支持该主题的早期新兴和增长研究。然而，尽管乌拉圭青少年身体活动相关指标方面存在现有论文，但高质量证据仍然缺乏。
本范围综述的结果为确定和克服乌拉圭身体活动相关指标研究的挑战提供了最佳现有证据。使用的方法框架对于参与全球矩阵倡议未来版本的国家可能有用。
