Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effects of lifestyle intervention on diet, physical activities and health outcomes in obese children and adolescents during one year of follow up.Methods:A total of 153 obese children and adolescents with body mass index more than 95th percentage of the same age and sex were recruited consecutively from June 2015 to June 2017 in our hospital whose parents had signed the informed consent forms. The children were followed-up once every three months and their diet and physical activities, anthropometric measurement and metabolic indicators were assessed on research scheme, which lasted for one year.Results:A total of 52 obese children completed four visits plan in 12 months (34.0%, one year group), 101 children (66.0%) dropped from 3 to 9 months (66.0%, less than one year group). The intake of total energy [(8 524.5±2 068.6)kJ vs (6 464.0±1 586.9)kJ, P<0.05], dietary protein [(75.5±20.7)g vs (64.2±16.8)g, P<0.05], fat [(79.0±18.8)g vs (60.3±14.2)g, P<0.05], carbohydrates [(257.1±83.6)g vs (188.9±63.8)g, P<0.05] decreased after one year intervention in one year group. Moreover, the numbers of physical activity of medium to high intensity increased in obese children (0 vs 32.7%, P<0.05). BMI-SDS [(3.15±0.85) vs (2.46±0.81), P<0.05], WHtR [(0.60±0.04) vs (0.56±0.06), P<0.05] and FM% [(39.9±5.4) vs (33.0±7.4), P<0.05] were reduced, while SMM% [(32.1±3.2) vs (36.0±4.3), P<0.05] increased significantly in one year group. The detection rate of insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were reduced in one year group at the end of follow up ( P<0.05). The decrease of body fat and the increase of skeletal muscle were more obvious in one-year follow up group( P<0.05). Conclusion:Children and adolescent have less energy intake, more physical activities, good clinical outcomes and less complications of obesity through lifestyle intervention and follow up for one year, so it is worthy of being promoted.
