Summary:Background: Symptoms of anxiety and depression are common in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Mobile health (mHealth)-based lifestyle interventions have been shown to be effective in improving glycemic control of these women. Purpose/Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of mHealth-based lifestyle interventions on symptoms of anxiety and depression in women with GDM. Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis or randomized controlled trials. Setting: Clinical or community-based settings. Sample: Nine studies involving 1,168 pregnant women with GDM were included. Intervention: mHealth-based lifestyle interventions. Measures: Symptoms of anxiety and depression quantitatively analyzed in clinical scales.
