Eighty-four adults with StD were randomized using computer-generated permuted blocks with concealed allocation to an intervention group (IG; n=42), which received an 8-week Nintendo Switch\u2013based exergame program (2\u20103 sessions\/week, 50\u201060 minutes\/session), or a control group (CG; n=42), which continued usual activities. Outcome assessors and data analysts were blinded. Depressive symptoms, anxiety, and sleep quality were assessed at baseline (T0), postintervention (T1, Week 8), one-month follow-up (T2, Week 12), and 2-month follow-up (T3, Week 16). Generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to analyze longitudinal changes and time\u00d7group interactions under the intention-to-treat principle. Semistructured interviews were conducted with a purposive subsample of IG participants (n=17) at T1 and analyzed using thematic analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec sec-type=\"results\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Eighty-four participants were randomized; 81 completed the postintervention assessment, with 3 out of 42 (7.1%) CG participants lost to follow-up at T1.
