Consumer wearable activity tracker-based interventions can improve physical activity and cardiometabolic health in patients with chronic diseases. Physical activity is effective in weight maintenance.
The study systematically evaluated the efficacy of consumer wearable activity trackers-based interventions to promote physical activity levels and cardiometabolic health in populations with chronic diseases. The authors investigated the effects of weight loss maintenance with exercise, liraglutide, or the combination on weight loss-induced changes in people with obesity.
Systematic review and meta-analysis. The study was conducted using a randomized, controlled, double-blind trial.
35 studies conducted using randomized control trial were included in the review and meta-analysis. The study included 130 adults with obesity.
PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and CINAHL. Accelerometer, Danish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire – Short Form (IPAQ-SF), and Leeds Food Preference Questionnaire are the tools that were used in the study.
Data was analyzed using R version 3.6.0 (The R foundation for Statistical Computing, Wien, Austria). Statistical analyses were performed using SAS Enterprise Guide v7.15 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA).
CWAT-based interventions increase physical activity and have beneficial effects on important health-related outcomes such as systolic blood pressure, waist circumference and LDL cholesterol concentration in patients with chronic diseases. The study found that exercise after weight loss improved quality of life of people with obesity and maintain their weight.
The authors recommended that technology should be included in weight-loss programs. The authors recommended that after weight loss, patients with obesity should continue with physical activity programs to maintain their weight.
The article will be used to develop the background of the capstone project. The article supports physical activity as a weight loss intervention.

The tittle of the study is “Effectiveness of behaviorally designed gamification interventions with social incentives for increasing physical activity among overweight and obese adults across the United States: the STEP UP randomized clinical trial.” The article was conducted in 2019.
Research Questions (Qualitative)/Hypothesis (Quantitative) School-based physical activity interventions are effective in reducing weight in obese children. Gamification can improve physical activity among adults with obesity or overweight.
Purposes/Aim of Study The article aimed to systematically review and meta-analyse data on the overall effectiveness of school-based physical activity interventions on accelerometer-assessed daily minutes of MVPA, and investigate if this effect varies by gender or SEP. To assess the effectiveness of support, collaboration, and competition within a behaviorally designed gamification intervention to increase physical activity among overweight and obese adults.
Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative) Systematic review and meta-analysis. The STEP-UP randomized clinical trial.
Setting/Sample Twenty-five trials that met inclusion criteria were included in this review. The sample were 602 adults from 40 states with body mass indexes (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) of 25 or higher.
Methods: Intervention/Instruments The intervention was school-based physical activity. The intervention was the Social incentives to Encourage Physical Activity and Understand Predictors (STEP UP).
Analysis Data was analyzed using descriptive analysis. Data was analyzed using SPSS.
Key Findings School-based physical activities improved health of obese children by helping in reducing their weight. The authors found that gamification interventions with support, collaboration, and competition significantly increased physical activity compared with the control group during the 24-week intervention.
Recommendations Further assessment and maximization of implementation fidelity is required before it can be concluded that these interventions have no contribution to make. The study recommend that social incentives should be used to promote physical activity in people with obesity.
Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone The article supports physical activity as a weight-loss intervention. The findings of the study can be used to promote physical activity in Capstone project participants.

The authors hypothesized that higher levels of PA are associated with more weight loss during an energy-restricted diet and also with less subsequent weight regain. Physical activity reduces weight in pregnant women with obesity.
The authors investigated whether physical activity (PA) contributes to diet-induced weight loss and helps to reduce subsequent regain. This study aimed to summarize and update the evidence on the effect of exercise on maternal gestational weight gain (GWG).
DiOGenes, a large multicenter European DiOGenes (Diet, Obesity and Genes) trial. A meta-analysis was used to conduct the article analysis.
In total 1,121 individuals [men(M) and women(F) with at least one child <18 years in their household] were included in the study. The authors included 23 RCTs including 4462 pregnant women that met the inclusion criteria.
The intervention is physical activity for weight loss. The intervention is physical activity for weight loss.
Data was analyzed using repeated measurements ANOVA. Data was analyzed using SPSS.
The study found that showed that body weight (BW), body fat percentage (%BF) and fat mass (FM) were significantly reduced by physical activity. The analysis supports the notion that self-imposed levels of PA may help to maintain weight loss. Meta-analysis indicated that compared with that in women having conventional medical care, GWG was significantly decreased in pregnant women with physical exercise.
The study recommends that physical activity should be include in weigh loss programs. The article recommended that people should engage in physical exercise 3 times per week and duration of 30 to 45 minutes each time.
The study will be used to support PA for weight loss. The article can be used to develop the background of the project and support the proposed intervention.
