@DrMJoyner @EricTopol @trishgreenhalgh @PaulGlasziou Agreed! What you say here reminds me of this paper where hi tech monitoring actually led to LESS weight loss than standard intervention. We primarily need structural interventions. https://t.co/TLN5R5gB

Unpopular scientific finding of the day: Among young adults with a BMI between 25 and less than 40, the addition of a wearable technology device to a standard behavioral intervention resulted in less weight loss over 24 months. https://t.co/meBwLUxHtd

According to the IDEA Randomized Clinical Trial, "Devices that monitor and provide feedback on physical activity may not offer an advantage over standard behavioral weight loss approaches" Learn more about step counters and calorie trackers: https://t.co/7

And on the days that they did wear it? They didn’t wear it much! "On days that the device was worn, the median wear time was 241.1 min/d." So on the few days they *did* wear it, they wore it for only about 4 hours, typically. https://t.co/EdrhbCPPdW

לדעתי זה מתחבר ללא מעט מחקרים בפסיכולוגיה שמה שמדיד ונראה אפקטיבי הרבה פעמים פחות פחות אפקטיבי מדיוח סוביקטיבי. (למשל דיוח סוביקטיבי של מצב בריאותי מנבא טוב יותר מדיוח מדדים אוביקטיבים.

הנה מחקר שקצת הפתיע אותי: כשנתנו לאנשים (צעירים, עד 40) טכנולוגיה לבישה לניטור צעדים ופעילות גופנית, הם הורידו *פחות* במשקל מהקבוצה שהייתה צריכה לדווח בעצמה, כחלק מתוכנית דיאטה כוללת. פורסם לפני 3 שנים, ולא יודע כמה משמעותי, אבל מעניין. https://t.co/wNqk5
