20.500.12556/RUL-138275 The importance of physical activity in improving preconception health Introduction: Preconception care practices include physical activity, which is identified as an important indicator of behavioural preconception health. A scoping review was conducted to examine the association between physical activity in preconception health and its long-term effects on the later life of the offspring. Methods: The literature was searched in databases CINAHL, ScienceDirect and PubMed, using keywords determined by the study objective. In total, 755 published manuscripts were identified. Two additional manuscripts were identified through manual searching. A total of 17 manuscripts was selected for the final analysis. The data were extracted and summarized using thematic analysis. Results: The selected studies were summarized in two categories: (1) studies associated with physical activity and preconception health behaviour (n = 8), and (2) studies associated with preconception physical activity, fertility, and pregnancy outcomes (n = 9). Conclusions: Despite limited evidence, other indirect scientific evidence shows that physical activity positively affects health, and is therefore strongly recommended during the preconception period. Policymakers, researchers, and healthcare professionals should join efforts in examining the impact of physical activity on preconception health, fertility and birth outcomes, and effectively translate the f indings into preconception health guidelines and public policies. fertility health promotion health behaviour physical activity preconception care public health plodnost promocija zdravja vedenje povezano z zdravjem fizična aktivnost predkocepcijsko zdravje javno zdravje true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Članek v reviji 2022-07-14 03:54:40 2022-09-12 15:00:57 2022-09-15 04:16:30 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 Str. 247-255 št. 4 Vol. 23 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2021-12-06 61:796.01 1212-4117 0.32725/kont.2021.051 88967683 knt_knt-202104-0006_(1).pdf knt_knt-202104-0006_(1).pdf 1 9907AF0AC6447BC84B7F34712EBC7566 4b772680f1b26cec2611cb3abb3cd3b67982c5a95693d20a16838dfc89a788d2 a3d49b6b-0335-11ed-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=158564 https://kont.zsf.jcu.cz/artkey/knt-202104-0006_vyznam-fyzicke-aktivity-pro-zlepseni-zdravi-v-obdobi-pred-pocetim.php 1 b4ba1d6b-0317-11ed-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=158550 Zdravstvena fakulteta 0 0 0
