There is very limited evidence for the effectiveness of IDIs on PA and HRQoL in RA and JIA and no evidence for their effectiveness in PsA or AS
The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the evidence from r and omised controlled trials ( RCTs ) evaluating the effectiveness of interactive digital interventions ( IDIs ) for physical activity ( PA )  and  health related quality of life ( HRQoL )  in people with Inflammatory Arthritis [ rheumatoid arthritis ( RA ) , juvenile idiopathic arthritis ( JIA ) axial Spondyloarthritis ( AS ) and psoriatic arthritis ( PsA ) ] .
Predictors of exercise and effects of exercise on symptoms, function, aerobic fitness, and disease outcomes of rheumatoid arthritis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of participation in a low-impact aerobic exercise program on fatigue , pain , and depression ; to examine whether intervention groups compared with a control group differed on functional ( grip strength and walk time ) and disease activity ( total joint count , erythrocyte sedimentation rate , and C-reactive protein ) measures and aerobic fitness at the end of the intervention ; and to test which factors predicted exercise participation . METHODS A convenience sample of 220 adults with rheumatoid arthritis ( RA ) , ages 40 - 70 , was r and omized to 1 of 3 groups : class exercise , home exercise using a videotape , and control group . Measures were obtained at baseline ( T1 ) , after 6 weeks of exercise ( T2 ) , and after 12 weeks of exercise ( T3 ) . RESULTS Using structural equation modeling , overall symptoms ( latent variable for pain , fatigue , and depression ) decreased significantly at T3 ( P < 0.04 ) for the class exercise group compared with the control group . There were significant interaction effects of time and group for the functional measures of walk time and grip strength : the treatment groups improved more than the control group ( P < or= 0.005 ) . There were no significant increases in measures of disease activity . Fatigue and perceptions of benefits and barriers to exercise affected participants ' amount of exercise , supporting previous research . CONCLUSION This study supported the positive effects of exercise on walk time and grip strength , and demonstrated that fatigue and perceived benefits /barriers to exercise influenced exercise participation . Furthermore , overall symptoms of fatigue , pain , and depression were positively influenced in this selective group of patients with RA ages 40 - 70 years
