Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled study in a quasi-experimental design in the pre-test post-test design.The aim of this study is to examine the effect of motivational interview applied to obese adolescents on nutritional exercise behavior, anthropometric measurements and sedentary activity level.The data of this study were collected using a personal information form, Nutrition exercise behavior scale, Adolescent Sedentary Activity Questionnaire and anthropometric measurement form.In this study, nursing initiatives include a MG-based training program that will be given to obese adolescents in the experimental group in the form of 6 sessions after collecting preliminary test data. The final tests will be collected after 3 months of follow-up. Pre-test and post-test will be applied to the adolescents in the control group. Each training will take 30 minutes. Various training methods and techniques such as oral expression, question and answer, brainstorming, feedback and powerpoint presentations will be used within the scope of the training program
This evaluation evaluated Health Education England's NoObesity digital health app's usability and acceptability to undertake activities improving families' diet, physical activity and weight. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the app's influence on self-efficacy and goal setting and to determine what can be learned to improve its design for future studies, should there be evidence of adoption and sustainability.
Pilot study to test the acceptability and feasibility of an intervention aimed to test the effectiveness, in preschool children, of an integrated physical activity intervention in the classroom based on intervallic training (MOVI-HIIT) on improving executive function, body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness.
The objective is to determine if how physical fitness, measured using a treadmill maximal oxidative capacity test, is associated with the capacity to metabolize a high-fat meal in pediatrics (ages 8-17 years). Ability to metabolize the meal will be assessed by profiling mitochondrial and extra-mitochondrial fatty acid metabolites. The investigators will test if fatty acid oxidation mediates the relationship between fitness and markers of metabolic health, such as insulin resistance.
"Matkassen - effekten av tre månaders intensiv kostintervention hos barn med fetma/ Family Meals on Prescription.- a randomized controlled trial : The aim of the study was to explore a novel approach for the treatment of obesity in children and adolescents through an intensive dietary intervention, consisting of receiving a weekly bag of groceries and recipes for five family meals at a reduced price for three months. Data concerning dietary patterns and food habits, weight, BMI and blood markers for metabolic and cardiovascular disease was collected before the study began and again at the end of the study during the patients' one year follow up appointment at the clinics.
The global obesity epidemic presents an unprecedented challenge to the public health worldwide. The factors associated with obesity are complex, and include health behaviours, such as eating habits and daily physical activity, and broader social, environmental and biological determinants that influence these health behaviours. The intestinal microbiota has several beneficial functions related to host health and accumulating evidence indicates that the gut microbiota plays a significant role in the development of obesity, obesity-associated inflammation and insulin resistance. Differences in community composition, functional genes and metabolic activities of the gut microbiota appear to distinguish lean vs obese individuals, suggesting that gut 'dysbiosis' contributes to the development of obesity and/or its complications. Recent studies have suggested some beneficial effects of probiotics and/or prebiotics on obesity and metabolic syndrome in adults; such experience is limited in children and adolescents. There are limited information about the synbiotics in children and adolescent with obesity.The mechanism of action of probotics on obesity are scarce and microbiota restoration/reshaping might be the one. The objective of this study tested the effects of a multispecies synbiotic on anthropometric measurement, glucose metabolism, lipid parameters and intestinal microbiota in children with exogenous obesity.
Objectives To compare oral health (dental caries, periodontal status, and erosive tooth wear (ETW)), diet and oral hygiene habits between obese and normal weight adolescents, and to explore possible risk associations. Materials and Methods In this case-control study, a convenient sample of 81 obese adolescents (age range 11-18) from a rehabilitation centre, and 81 age-sex-matched normal weight adolescents were selected. Groups were defined using the Body Mass Index and growth curves for Flemish. Oral health was measured using DMFT, gingival, plaque and BEWE index. A validated questionnaire was utilized to assess diet and oral hygiene habits.
The main aim of the study is to collect preliminary information on the feasibility and efficacy of a time restricted eating intervention in Spanish children and adolescents with obesity and metabolic comorbidities. Two 8-week interventions will performed in a randomized crossover controlled design: a) reduction of the habitual eating window; b) standard care. Different measurements of body composition and cardiometabolic health markers will be performed along those weeks.
This study will test whether managing the hours during which people eat, called time restricted eating, might help them to lose weight. For this study, one parent and a child will enroll as a group (called a dyad). The dyads will be assigned at random to practice time restricted eating (within 10-12 hours per day) but will be able to eat whatever they would like or to limit portion size and increase fruit, vegetable and lean protein intake and limit sugar sweetened beverages and undergo . Both groups will receive dietary counseling, Bluetooth toothbrushes and scales to help monitor their progress. The study will last for 12 weeks and will have one survey four weeks after the last in person visit. There will be 2 in person visits, 7 virtual visits, 2 phone visits and daily time logs.
Gardner GOALS is a 6 month program for treatment of childhood obesity that consists of twice monthly telehealth meetings with a health educator. Potential participants enter the study using a randomly ordered list of eligible patients based on BMI, age and number of clinic visits in 2020.
