Abstract

Background and objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of 12-week somatosensory games on heart rate variability and sleep-related biomarkers in middle-aged women with poor sleep quality.

Research design and methods: Twenty-nine women with poor sleep quality were recruited as participants randomly assigned into ring fit adventure exergame group (RFA, n = 15) and control group (CON, n = 14). The RFA group received ring fit adventure exergame for 60 min each time, 2 times a week, for 12 weeks. The CON group was not allowed to participate in intervention activities during the study period. Heart rate variability, sleep quality, cortisol, serotonin, and high-sensitive C-reactive protein were measured before and after the 12-week intervention.

Results: The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index total score in the RFA group was significantly lower compared with the CON group. The value of the standard deviation of normal NN intervals and the root mean square of the successive RR Differences were significantly increased in the RFA group, when compared with the CON group. The change in the logarithm of high frequency (log HF) was significantly higher and change in the logarithm of low frequency to high frequency ratio (log LF/HF) was significantly lower in the RFA group, when compared to the CON group. The change level of serotonin in the RFA group was significantly higher compared with the CON group.

Discussion and implications: The results suggest that somatosensory games might improve sleep quality, increase serotonin level, and decrease sympathetic nerve activities in middle-aged women with poor sleep quality.

体感游戏对睡眠质量差的更年期妇女心率变异性和睡眠相关生物标志物的影响

背景和目的：本研究旨在调查为期 12 周的体感游戏对睡眠质量差的中年女性的心率变异性和睡眠相关生物标志物的影响：本研究旨在调查为期 12 周的体感游戏对睡眠质量差的中年女性心率变异性和睡眠相关生物标志物的影响：招募 29 名睡眠质量不佳的女性作为参与者，随机分配到环形体感探险游戏组（RFA，n = 15）和对照组（CON，n = 14）。RFA组接受环形健身探险游戏，每次60分钟，每周2次，为期12周。对照组在研究期间不允许参加干预活动。在为期 12 周的干预前后，对心率变异性、睡眠质量、皮质醇、血清素和高敏 C 反应蛋白进行了测量：结果：RFA 组的匹兹堡睡眠质量指数总分明显低于 CON 组。与 CON 组相比，RFA 组的正常 NN 间期标准差和连续 RR 差的均方根值明显增加。与 CON 组相比，RFA 组高频对数（log HF）的变化明显增大，低频与高频比对数（log LF/HF）的变化明显减小。与 CON 组相比，RFA 组的血清素变化水平明显更高：结果表明，体感游戏可改善睡眠质量，提高血清素水平，减少睡眠质量差的中年女性的交感神经活动。

期刊介绍： Innovation in Aging, an interdisciplinary Open Access journal of the Gerontological Society of America (GSA), is dedicated to publishing innovative, conceptually robust, and methodologically rigorous research focused on aging and the life course. The journal aims to present studies with the potential to significantly enhance the health, functionality, and overall well-being of older adults by translating scientific insights into practical applications. Research published in the journal spans a variety of settings, including community, clinical, and laboratory contexts, with a clear emphasis on issues that are directly pertinent to aging and the dynamics of life over time. The content of the journal mirrors the diverse research interests of GSA members and encompasses a range of study types. These include the validation of new conceptual or theoretical models, assessments of factors impacting the health and well-being of older adults, evaluations of interventions and policies, the implementation of groundbreaking research methodologies, interdisciplinary research that adapts concepts and methods from other fields to aging studies, and the use of modeling and simulations to understand factors and processes influencing aging outcomes. The journal welcomes contributions from scholars across various disciplines, such as technology, engineering, architecture, economics, business, law, political science, public policy, education, public health, social and psychological sciences, biomedical and health sciences, and the humanities and arts, reflecting a holistic approach to advancing knowledge in gerontology.
