前所未有的肥胖率正在改变世界范围内的疾病负担，与肥胖相关的健康并发症正在增加医疗保健费用。作为回应，研究人员，临床医生和公共卫生从业人员正在寻求新的和有效的工具，如互联网，以实现减肥。这篇综述强调了关于随机对照试验的同行评议文献，这些试验研究了互联网提供的减肥和维持计划。这次审查的范围比以前的审查更广泛，包括更多的男性和非西班牙裔白色参与者。回顾的研究显示，干预结果从没有体重减轻到平均减轻7.6公斤不等。很难对基于互联网的减肥的潜在影响得出明确的结论，因为论文之间的研究方法差异很大，记录的依从性很低，而且并非所有研究都包括对照组。随着对低成本，有效的干预措施的需求，产生统计学显著和/或临床相关的结果的增长，需要更严格的，特定人群的研究，以确定是否互联网提供的干预措施可能会减缓或逆转体重增加和肥胖以及相关的健康后果。
Unprecedented obesity rates are changing the burden of disease worldwide and obesity-related health complications are increasing health care costs. In response, researchers, clinicians and public health practitioners are seeking new and effective tools such as the internet to effect weight loss. This review highlights peer-reviewed literature on randomized controlled trials that examine internet-delivered weight loss and maintenance programs. The scope of this review is broader than previous reviews, including more males and non-Hispanic white participants. The reviewed studies show intervention results ranging from no weight loss to an average loss of 7.6 kg. It is difficult to draw a definitive conclusion on the potential impact of internet-based weight loss as study methods are highly variable between papers, low adherence was recorded and not all studies include a control group. As the demand for low-cost, efficacious interventions that yield statistically significant and/or clinically relevant results grows, more rigorous, population-specific research is needed to determine if internet-delivered interventions may slow or reverse with weight gain and obesity and the associated health consequences.
