Adaptive sports could produce multiple health benefits in people with physical disabilities. The aim is to evaluate if adaptive sports practice has an influence on physical and mental quality of life. A meta-analysis was performed using electronic databases and other sources. A within- and between-group analysis for physical and mental quality of life was conducted. Standardized mean difference (SMD) was used as a measure of the mean size effect. The statistical heterogeneity, the risk of bias, and the quality of evidence were evaluated. Eight studies met the inclusion criteria and four of them were included in the meta-analysis. In mental quality of life, significant differences were observed in the within-group analysis (SMD = 0.71, < 0.001) and between people practicing adaptive sports and those not engaging in them (SMD = 0.62, = 0.009). In physical quality of life, significant differences were also found between pre- and post-practice of adaptive sports (SMD = 1.03, = 0.007). The engagement in adaptive sports showed a positive impact on the mental quality of life among adults with physical disabilities. However, the positive effect of adaptive sports practice on physical quality of life was shown only in the pre-post-test analysis. Further studies are required to validate the obtained findings.
适应性运动对身体残疾者可能产生多种健康益处。目的是评估进行适应性运动是否会对身体和心理生活质量产生影响。使用电子数据库和其他来源进行了一项荟萃分析。对身体和心理生活质量进行了组内和组间分析。标准化均数差（SMD）用作平均效应大小的度量。评估了统计异质性、偏倚风险和证据质量。八项研究符合纳入标准，其中四项纳入了荟萃分析。在心理生活质量方面，组内分析存在显著差异（SMD = 0.71，<0.001），进行适应性运动的人与未进行适应性运动的人之间也存在显著差异（SMD = 0.62，= 0.009）。在身体生活质量方面，适应性运动练习前后也存在显著差异（SMD = 1.03，= 0.007）。参与适应性运动对身体残疾的成年人的心理生活质量产生了积极影响。然而，适应性运动练习对身体生活质量的积极影响仅在前后测试分析中显示。需要进一步的研究来验证所获得的结果。
