Brief summary (registry, in English)
The main objective of this project is to analyze the effect of a tailor-made, one-to-one, exercise program (aiming to treat and handle obesity-related comorbidities in adolescents with severe obesity at high risk of cardiovascular disease development) on BMI z-score, specific comorbidities, and other health-related indicators. This project will further allow to analyze the long-term impact of the exercise program not only on clinical parameters, but also on the interaction with drug-treatment, health-related behaviors, and quality of life, further contributing to the understanding of the individual characteristics associated with a positive exercise response and frequency. The secondary objective of the THOR-X project is to build an educational toolkit, based on project results and relevant literature, addressed to health and exercise professionals, in order to improve management of adolescents with obesity, in particular those with severe obesity.
