Weight loss in young adults
Network diagrams for randomized controlled trials investigating weight loss among diets, categorized by diet class eFigure 3. Difference in mean weight loss at 6 and 12 months across all diet classes with 95% credible intervals when restricted to low risk of bias studies eTable 5. To test the hypothesis that, compared with a standard behavioral weight loss intervention (standard intervention), a technology-enhanced weight loss intervention (enhanced intervention) would result in greater weight loss. GRADE confidence in indirect estimates: 12-month weight loss eTable 12. 9, Author Audio Interview. Numerous wearable technologies specific to physical activity and diet are available, but it is unclear if these are effective at improving weight loss. Difference in mean decrease in BMI at 6 and 12 months across diet brands with 95% credible intervals eTable 15. JAMA 2014-09-02, Vol. Difference in mean decrease in BMI at 6 and 12 months across diet classes with 95% credible intervals eTable 14. Effective long-term treatments are needed to address the obesity epidemic. eMethods. Summary of risk of bias by diet class and brand eTable 3. At 6 months, the interventions added telephone counseling sessions, text message prompts, and access to study materials on a website. GRADE confidence in direct estimates: 12-month weight loss eTable 11. eTable 1.
Supplement. Key differences between this analysis and recent joint guidelines from the American Heart Association (AHA), American College of Cardiology (ACC), and The Obesity Society (TOS) eFigure 1. View Large Download Diet Classes Based on Macronutrient Composition Table 2. Difference in mean weight loss at 6 and 12 months across all diet classes with 95% credible intervals when adjusting for percentage loss to follow-up (continuous measure) eTable 6. Randomized clinical trial conducted at the University of Pittsburgh and enrolling 471 adult participants between October 2010 and October 2012, with data collection completed by December 2014. 312, No. Effect of Wearable Technology Combined With a Lifestyle Intervention on Long-term Weight Loss The IDEA Randomized Clinical Trial. At 6 months, participants randomized to the standard intervention group initiated self-monitoring of diet and physical activity using a website, and those randomized to the enhanced intervention group were provided with a wearable device and accompanying web interface to monitor diet and physical activity. Participants were placed on a low-calorie diet, prescribed increases in physical activity, and had group counseling sessions. GRADE overall confidence in estimates: 12-month weight loss eTable 13. Description of dietary programs eTable 2. Difference in mean weight loss at 6 and 12 months across all diet brands with 95% credible intervals when restricted to low risk of bias studies eTable 10.
