URL: www.healthevidence.org/view-article.aspx?a=digital-interventions-moderate-physical-inactivity-nutrition-young-people-cancer-47766
Summary:

This review identified limited evidence suggesting some potential for digital interventions to increase physical activity and, to a lesser extent, improve nutrition in school-aged children. "However, effects can be small and based on less robust evidence."

Highlights:

Searches for systematic reviews were conducted across relevant databases including KSR Evidence (www.ksrevidence.com), Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR) and Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects (DARE; CRD). Records were independently screened by title and abstract by two reviewers and those deemed eligible were obtained for full text screening. Risk of bias (RoB) was assessed with the Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Systematic Reviews (ROBIS) tool.

 

The review identified limited evidence suggesting some potential for digital interventions to increase physical activity and, to a lesser extent, improve nutrition in school-aged children. "However, effects can be small and based on less robust evidence."
