Gamification for family engagement in lifestyle interventions: a systematic review.
This paper is a systematic review of studies on lifestyle interventions involving family members that were reviewed for game design elements using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework. Sixty-one studies met the inclusion criteria. A total of 50 independent interventions were reviewed, with 31 of these interventions addressing lifestyle in those with a chronic condition, and 19 addressed lifestyle in those at high risk for chronic conditions. Overall, there were limited elements utilized together although the majority of the studied lifestyle interventions included at least one game design element.

Design and rationale of the STRIVE trial to improve cardiometabolic health among children and families.
The researchers described the design and rationale for the Study for using Technology to Reach Individual Excellence (STRIVE), which incorporates patient-generated mobile health technology (mHealth) data on health behaviors and provides clinical recommendations to help manage cardiometabolic risk and disease (CMRD) among at-risk families. They concluded that the STRIVE trial will test the use of mHealth to improve health behaviors among families at-risk for or with established CMRD.
