NET ‐Works paediatric obesity prevention trial: 66 month outcomes
ConclusionsEvidence suggests that early intervention with children at highest risk for obesity, using community-based, multicomponent, multisetting interventions, may be effective in reducing excess weight gain and obesity among certain subgroups of children. The intervention appeared to be effective in slowing BMI gain 66 months after randomization among children who were already overweight at ages 2–4 years and among children of Hispanic ethnicity.
