“…In the present study, there was a signi cant improvement in body composition at 12 months of follow-up in the BG, particularly in the fat mass index. In a randomized study with obese children aged seven to nine years old which aimed to compare the impact of a program of 14 group sessions with a program of two routine counselling consultations in body composition and metabolic pro le, the authors found higher decreases of fat mass (kg) in the group program children, with a decrease of BMI z-score greater than or equal to 0,25 [25]. These results corroborate those obtained in the present study, where there was a greater decrease in fat mass (kg) after 12 months follow-up in the BG than in the STG.…”

Abstract Background: The increase in prevalence of pre-obesity and childhood obesity in most European countries led to the need to develop effective interventions to reverse this situation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a behavioral protocol for the treatment of pediatric overweight. Methods: The study sample consisted of overweight children/adolescents between six and eighteen years old. The individuals who were intervened with the application of a behavioral contract belonged to Behavioral Group (BG) and those who received standard treatment belonged to the Standard Treatment Group (STG). The evolution of the Body Mass Index (BMI) z-score and body composition were evaluated. Results: The BG significantly decreased the Body Mass Index (BMI) z-score both in the middle and at the end of the intervention, but the STG only significantly decreased the BMI z-score at the end of the intervention. We were also found that the BG significantly decreased the fat mass index (p< 0,05) compared to the STG (p> 0,05) after twelve months. Conclusion: The use of a behavioral approach for the treatment of pediatric overweight showed an improvement in fat mass index and a decrease in BMI at twelve months when compared to a standard intervention. Thus, the behavioral approach seems to be more effective than a standard long-term nutritional approach . In summary, the child's accountability in its overweight treatment process seems to be effective.

“…Die Reduktion der metabolischen Veränderungen steht dabei in direktem Zusammenhang mit der erreichten Gewichtsreduktion. Eine Verringerung des BMI-SDS um 0,5 Einheiten führt zu einer Verbesserung aller Komponenten des metabolischen Syndroms [33,49]; eine Verringerung um mind. 0,25 BMI-SDS Einheiten bewirkt bereits eine Reduzierung des Nüchterninsulins [33].…”

“…Another intervention had one arm that included an inpatient component [55]. For some approaches, interventions extended beyond clinic walls and involved phone coaching [30–32, 37, 48], text messaging [48], telemedicine [24], home visits [17,47, 48, 57, 58] and communication with families via newsletters, manuals, automated phone, and educational audio tapes [22, 25, 30, 32, 35, 37, 40, 44, 61]. …”

Addressing Pediatric Obesity in Ambulatory Care: Where Are We and Where Are We Going?

Since the “2007 summary report of child and adolescent overweight and obesity treatment” published by Barlow, many obesity intervention studies have been conducted in pediatric ambulatory care. Although several meta-analyses have been published in the interim, many studies were excluded because of the focus and criteria of these meta-analyses. Therefore, the primary goal of this article was to identify randomized case-control trials conducted in the primary care setting and to report on treatment approaches, challenges, and successes. We have developed four themes for our discussion and provide a brief summary of our findings. Finally, we identified major gaps and potential solutions, and describe several urgent key action items.

Impact of childhood obesity treatment on body composition and metabolic profile

Abstract: Obesity-related metabolic risk factors reduced in prepubertal children if BMI-SDS decreased substantially. This result was not dependent on which intervention, family-oriented group program or routine counselling, was used.
