Abstract

Background: Studies have suggested that obesity is linked within families and that successful interventions involve both the parent and child with obesity. However little information exists regarding similarities in adiposity and weight loss between the parent and child, especially in low socio-economic ethnically diverse households.

Methods: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between the changes from baseline over time in adiposity, weight, health behaviors, and self-efficacy in children (n = 184) and parents (n = 184) participating in an 18-month weight loss program. Within the intervention group only and for each post-baseline time point, Pearson correlation coefficients were computed for children's changes (from baseline) in adiposity, weight, health behaviors, and self-efficacy, with their parents' corresponding changes from baseline, to determine how strongly the dyads were correlated.

Results: At the completion of 18 months, the intervention group parents demonstrated strong positive correlations between parent and child change in waist circumference (r = 0.409, p < 0.001), triceps (r = 0.332, p < 0.001), and subscapular (r = 0.292, p = 0.002) skinfolds. There were no significant correlations between weight, health behaviors, eating, and exercise self-efficacy.

Conclusions: The results suggest that in the Southern United States low-income parents and their children with obesity are strongly correlated.

一项针对儿童和家长体重管理的群组随机对照试验:被随机分配到干预组的儿童和家长的肥胖变化具有相关性。
背景:研究表明,肥胖症与家庭有关,成功的干预措施需要肥胖症父母和子女的共同参与。然而,关于父母和子女在肥胖和体重减轻方面的相似性的信息却很少,尤其是在社会经济地位较低的种族多元化家庭中:本研究的目的是研究参加为期 18 个月减肥计划的儿童(184 人)和父母(184 人)的脂肪含量、体重、健康行为和自我效能从基线开始随时间发生的变化之间的关系。仅在干预组内,针对每个基线后时间点,计算儿童在脂肪率、体重、健康行为和自我效能方面的变化(与基线相比)与父母在基线基础上的相应变化的皮尔逊相关系数,以确定二者之间的相关程度:18 个月后,干预组父母与子女在腰围(r = 0.409,p r = 0.332,p r = 0.292,p = 0.002)皮褶方面的变化呈现出很强的正相关性。体重、健康行为、饮食和运动自我效能之间没有明显的相关性:结果表明,在美国南部,低收入父母和他们的肥胖子女密切相关:NCT01378806 2011年6月22日追溯注册。
