Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This nonrandomized clinical trial evaluates an office-based obesity prevention program for children aged 3 to 7, utilizing motivational interviewing delivered by pediatricians and dietitians. The study compares control, minimal intervention, and intensive intervention groups to assess changes in body mass index-for-age percentiles over six months. Results indicate that while BMI percentile decreases were observed across all groups, the differences between them were not statistically significant, though most parents reported the intervention prompted reflection on family eating habits.
