Predictors of Weight Loss and Weight Loss Maintenance in Children and Adolescents With Obesity After Behavioral Weight Loss Intervention.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Predictors of body weight loss (BWL) and body weight loss maintenance (BWLM) after behavioral weight loss intervention are well-investigated in adults. Less is known for children and adolescents and a systematic overview on the topic for this age group was aim of the review.

Methods

A systematic research according to PRISMA guidelines using several databases was performed. The outcome was the BMI z-Score of longitudinal studies. The extracted predictors were classified in clusters (Physiology, Behavior, Psychology, Environment) and compared with a theory-driven model based on international guidelines and known predictors for adults.

Results

Out of 2,623 articles 24 met the eligibility criteria, 23 investigating BWL and 8 BWLM. The expected key predictor in research for adults "Behavior" was hardly investigated in children. The most examined cluster was "Physiology" with the most significant predictors, in particular genetics (BWL) and blood parameters (BWLM). Factors in the cluster "Psychology" also predicted BWL and BWLM. The cluster "Environment," which was highlighted in most intervention guidelines, was neglected in studies regarding BWLM and hardly investigated in studies with BWL.

Conclusion

The comparison with the theory-driven children model outlined research gaps and differences between predictors for adults and children providing further direction of research.

Project description:ImportanceGenome-wide association studies have identified genetic loci influencing obesity risk in children. However, the importance of these loci in the associations with weight reduction through lifestyle interventions has not been investigated in large intervention trials.ObjectiveTo evaluate the associations between various obesity susceptibility loci and changes in body weight in children during an in-hospital, lifestyle intervention program.Design, setting, and participantsLong-term Effects of Lifestyle Intervention in Obesity and Genetic Influence in Children (LOGIC), an interventional prospective cohort study, enrolled 1429 children with overweight or obesity to participate in an in-hospital lifestyle intervention program. Genotyping of 56 validated obesity single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) was performed, and the associations between the SNVs and body weight reduction during the intervention were evaluated using linear mixed-effects models for each SNV. The LOGIC study was conducted from January 6, 2006, to October 19, 2013; data analysis was performed from July 15, 2015, to November 6, 2016.ExposuresA 4- to 6-week standardized in-hospital lifestyle intervention program (daily physical activity, calorie-restricted diet, and behavioral therapy).Main outcomes and measuresThe association between 56 obesity-relevant SNVs and changes in body weight and body mass index.ResultsOf 1429 individuals enrolled in the LOGIC Study, 1198 individuals (mean [SD] age, 14.0 [2.2] years; 670 [56%] girls) were genotyped. A mean (SD) decrease was noted in body weight of -8.7 (3.6) kg (95% CI, -15.7 to -1.8 kg), and body mass index (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) decreased by -3.3 (1.1) (95% CI, -5.4 to -1.1) (both P < .05). Five of 56 obesity SNVs were statistically significantly associated with a reduction of body weight or body mass index (all P < 8.93 × 10-4 corresponding to Bonferroni correction for 56 tests). Compared with homozygous participants without the risk allele, homozygous carriers of the rs7164727 (LOC100287559: 0.42 kg; 95% CI, 0.31-0.53 kg, P = 4.00 × 10-4) and rs12940622 (RPTOR: 0.35 kg; 95% CI, 0.18-0.52 kg; P = 1.86 × 10-5) risk alleles had a lower reduction of body weight, whereas carriers of the rs13201877 (IFNGR1: 0.65 kg; 95% CI, 0.51-0.79 kg; P = 2.39 × 10-5), rs10733682 (LMX1B: 0.45 kg; 95% CI, 0.27-0.63 kg; P = 6.37 × 10-4), and rs2836754 (ETS2: 0.56 kg; 95% CI, 0.38-0.74 kg; P = 1.51 × 10-4) risk alleles were associated with a greater reduction of body weight after adjustment for age and sex.Conclusions and relevanceGenes appear to play a minor role in weight reduction by lifestyle in children with overweight or obesity. The findings suggest that environmental, social, and behavioral factors are more important to consider in obesity treatment strategies.
