论文摘要
众所周知，肥胖可以大大降低生活质量。它通常与糖尿病，心血管疾病，各种癌症等非传染性疾病的机会增加有关。证据表明，与饮食相关的移动应用程序在帮助个人做出更健康的选择和跟踪食物摄入量方面起着至关重要的作用。但是，由于大量的类似应用，在功能，可用性和可能的设计问题方面对它们进行评估是一致的，以真正确定未来的最新解决方案。由于这些应用程序涉及实施多个用户需求和不同营养师的建议，因此评估变得非常复杂。因此，本研究旨在详细审查现有的饮食应用，以突出提高或破坏应用程序可用性的关键特征和问题。为此，我们研究了PubMed，Cinahl（2010年1月至2019年1月）和Science Direct（2010-2019）的各种科学数据库的已发表文献。我们遵循PRISMA指南，从我们的发现中，五十六项基本研究符合我们的纳入标准，鉴定，筛选，资格和全文评估。我们从选定的研究中分析了35个应用程序，并提取了每个已确定的应用程序的数据。遵循我们对自由使用的MHealth应用程序的全面性的详细分析，我们指定了潜在的未来研究挑战，并提出了建议，并提出了建议，以帮助增强临床准确的饮食相关应用。
Obesity is known to lower the quality of life substantially. It is often associated with increased chances of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems, various cancers, etc. Evidence suggests that diet-related mobile applications play a vital role in assisting individuals in making healthier choices and keeping track of food intake. However, due to an abundance of similar applications, it becomes pertinent to evaluate each of them in terms of functionality, usability, and possible design issues to truly determine state-of-the-art solutions for the future. Since these applications involve implementing multiple user requirements and recommendations from different dietitians, the evaluation becomes quite complex. Therefore, this study aims to review existing dietary applications at length to highlight key features and problems that enhance or undermine an application's usability. For this purpose, we have examined the published literature from various scientific databases of the PUBMED, CINAHL (January 2010-December 2019) and Science Direct (2010-2019). We followed PRISMA guidelines, and out of our findings, fifty-six primary studies met our inclusion criteria after identification, screening, eligibility and full-text evaluation. We analyzed 35 apps from the selected studies and extracted the data of each of the identified apps.Following our detailed analysis on the comprehensiveness of freely available mHealth applications, we specified potential future research challenges and stated recommendations to help grow clinically accurate diet-related applications.
