Abstract

CRD summary

The authors concluded that lifestyle interventions incorporating dietary, exercise and/or behavioural therapy components were effective in treating childhood obesity under various conditions at least up to one year. This was a generally well-conducted review but variations in intervention durations, settings and components precluded identification of the format likely to work best in practice and in the long-term.
