ENERGY2MOB STUDY: OBESITY MANAGEMENT IN BERGUEDÀ

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)

Background: Obesity is a prevalent multifactorial disease worldwide and has become a significant public health concern. The latest data from the 2022 Catalonia Health Survey show that 56.2% of men and 43.7% of women are overweight or obese, and 39% of children aged 6 to 12 years have excess weight. Excess adiposity poses a health risk as it is associated with various chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidaemia, all of which affect quality of life and increase mortality risk. Hypothesis: The Energy2MOB obesity management programme in Berguedà is a group-based intervention incorporating nutrition education and physical activity. It aims to reduce excess body weight and the risk of chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia, and hypertension, through a multicomponent approach that enhances dietary habits, physical activity, and emotional eating regulation. Objectives * Assess the effectiveness of the Energy2MOB programme in reducing body weight by 5-10% among adults with obesity in the Berguedà health region. * Measure lifestyle modifications, including dietary habits, physical activity, and emotional eating. Methodology: A randomised clinical trial with two groups (control and intervention) over one year, including individuals aged 18-65 years in the Berguedà health region with overweight grade II (BMI 27-30 kg/m²) or obesity (BMI 30-40 kg/m²). Exclusion criteria include significant language barriers, previous bariatric surgery, moderate to severe cognitive impairment, and severe psychiatric disorders preventing participation in sessions. Participants must attend at least 80% of the programme. Measurements * Sociodemographic factors: sex, age, education level, marital status, employment status. * Lifestyle factors: alcohol and tobacco use, dietary habits, physical activity, emotional eating, health-related quality of life. * Anthropometric parameters: body weight, height, BMI, waist circumference. * Blood pressure, medication use, biochemical parameters (fasting glucose, glycated haemoglobin, lipid profile, liver and kidney function markers, C-reactive protein). Statistical Analysis: Accepting an alpha risk of 0.05 and a statistical power above 0.8 in a bilateral contrast, 68 subjects per group are required to detect a difference of at least 2.5 kg. A common standard deviation of 4.77 is assumed, with an estimated 15% dropout rate. Sample size calculations were performed using GRANMO version 8.0 (https://www.datarus.eu/ca/aplications/granmo/; consulted in November 2024). Expected Outcomes, Applicability, and Relevance: This study aims to generate scientific evidence on the effectiveness of multicomponent group-based interventions focused on improving nutrition, physical activity, and psychological well-being in obesity and chronic disease management. It seeks to create an environment that facilitates behavioural changes, leading to weight reduction and improved quality of life. The findings will also contribute to the development of a practical guide for addressing excess weight in primary healthcare settings. Keywords (maximum 6): Adult obesity, primary health care, group interventions, dietary interventions, multicomponent interventions, Mediterranean diet.
