Hence, understanding the prevalence of SCI and the relationship between physical activity and mental health in individuals with SCI is crucial for informing rehabilitation strategies and optimizing outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objective<\/jats:title>\n This study aims to comprehensively analyze existing research on the link between physical activity and mental health and identify the level of physical activity and mental health status, the barriers to physical activity, and SCI\u2019s impacts on psychological well-being in individuals with SCI.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n An electronic search strategy will be used to identify prevalence studies published since 1993 in health-related databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, COCHRANE Library, and Wiley Library using the following query: \u201cSpinal Cord Injury\u201d OR \u201cParaplegia\u201d OR \u201cTetraplegia\u201d AND \u201cPhysical Activity\u201d OR \u201cExercise\u201d AND \u201cMental Health\u201d OR \u201cMental Illness\u201d OR \u201cMental Disorder.\u201d Bibliographies of primary studies and review articles meeting the inclusion criteria will be searched manually to identify further eligible studies. The risk of bias in the included studies will be appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist for prevalence studies by 2 review authors. Any disagreement will be resolved by reaching a consensus.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Funding was received in October 2023, data collection will commence in July 2024, and the results are expected by 2025. We will summarize the selection of the eligible studies using a flowchart. The data from the studies will be extracted and tabulated. This scoping review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal in accordance with PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n This scoping review underscores the complex relationship between physical activity and mental health among individuals with SCI, highlighting the level of physical activity and mental health status, barriers to physical activity engagement, and psychological implications. Understanding these dynamics is crucial in devising tailored interventions aimed at enhancing mental well-being. This synthesis of evidence emphasizes the need for personalized strategies to promote physical activity, addressing unique challenges faced by this population to foster improved mental health outcomes and overall quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Trial Registration<\/jats:title>\n Open Science Framework osf.io\/ugx7d; https:\/\/osf.io\/ugx7d\/<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n
