description | Effective interventions for guiding children to change behaviours are needed to tackle obesity. We evaluated the effectiveness of the 'Planning Health in School' programme (PHS-pro) on children's nutritional status. A non-randomised control group pretest-posttest trial was conducted at elementary schools of a sub-urban municipality in Porto's metropolitan area (Portugal). A total of 504 children of grade-6, aged 10-14, were assigned in two groups: children of one school as the intervention group (IG), and three schools as the control group (CG). Anthropometric measures included height, weight, waist circumference (WC), BMI and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), and lifestyle behaviours (self-reported questionnaire) were assessed at baseline and after PHS-pro. IG children grew significantly taller more than CG ones (
< 0.001). WC had reduced significantly in IG (-0.4 cm) whereas in the CG had increased (+0.3 cm;
= 0.015), and WHtR of IG showed a significant reduction (
= 0.002) compared with CG. After PHS-pro, IG children consumed significantly fewer soft drinks (
= 0.043) and ate more fruit and vegetables daily than CG. Physical activity time increased significantly in IG (
= 0.022), while CG maintained the same activity level. The PHS-pro did improve anthropometric outcomes effectively leading to better nutritional status and appears to be promising in reducing overweight and obesity. |
