About this study

Official title: OBESITY IN SCHOOLCHILDREN OF BASIC EDUCATION: a Study Interdisciplinary Intervention - Phase III

The study aims to evaluate the possible effects of an exercise program, nutritional and psychological, postural orientation and guidance of oral health on body composition, physical activity levels and lifestyle, physical fitness and health and motor performance, the factors risk of cardiovascular disease, eating habits, the cognition levels, the psychological profile, the body posture of children and adolescent with overweight and obesity, considering the presence of risk genotype associated with the development of obesity. In addition, identify the effects of orientation for oral health on the quality of life and healthy oral habits.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from body mass index (BMI) at 3 months

    Weight and height will be evaluated early in the morning in a fasting state, with the student wearing light clothing and shoes. The BMI will be classified as normal BMI, overweight or obesity.The BMI will be classified according to the percentage curves of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention / National Center for Health Statistics (CDC/NCHS) (2010) according to gender and age, considering the low weight (<p5), normal weight (p5 and <p85), overweight (p 85 and <p 95) and obesity (p 95).

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change from the percentage of body fat at 3 months

    To measure body fat percentage (BF%), a Lange (Beta Technology Incorporated) compass will be used to measure triceps and subscapular skinfolds. The equation of Slaughter et al. (1998) will be applied, and data will be classified according to Lonman's data, as mentioned by Heyward and Stolarczyk (2000).

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months.

  2. Change from the waist circumference (WC) at 3 months

    Waist circumference (WC) was measured with an inelastic tape, using the narrowest part of the trunk between the ribs and the iliac crest and the hip at the greater trochanter level as references. The subjects were then classified according to Taylor et al. (2000), defining the normal circumference percentile as <80 and obesity percentile as >80 according to gender and age.

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months.
