Methodological approaches to the design and analysis of nonrandomized intervention studies for the prevention of child and adolescent obesity.

Future studies should use advanced statistical and causal epidemiology methods, including better control for confounding and clustering, to generate higher quality evidence and certainty regarding which obesity prevention interventions are effective.
