PICOT QUESTION: In obese, low-income children ages 7 to 17, what is the effect of education on a healthy diet and encouragement to exercise compared to no additional education or exercise on lowering body weight, BMI, and percentage of body fat over one school year?

QUANTITATIVE STUDIES

Study: Poll et al. (2020). Impact of intervention on nutritional status, consumption of processed foods, and quality of life of adolescents with excess weight.

Problem-related to PICOT: There are concerns about the Impact of quality of life on causing an increase in weight in excess to adolescents and children and lack of enough nutritional education on the consumption of beverages which relates to the PICOT question on the effect of education on a healthy diet.

Purpose: The author of this article seeks to describe and extract information on Obesity. The study purposed to evaluate more on nutritional interventions.

Sample/Population: The study conducted a quantitative content analysis on sixty-two adolescents with overweight obesity. A total of 37 were in the intervention, while the remaining 25 were placed in the control group. The ages of the two were 13.2 and 13, respectively.

Data Collection Method: The authors stated that they collected data through quantitative methods; the changes in body mass index were recorded. The quality-of-life data was also recorded for intervention and control groups.

Significant Findings/Conclusions: After study analysis, the findings showed that pre-and post-ultra processed food consumption significantly reduced soft drink consumption in the intervention group. This indicates that quality of life increases the chances of Obesity when nutritional dies are not well taken care of. As a positive aspect of this study, there was a statistically significant variation with a reduction in BMI between the pre-and post-intervention.

Contribution to Review of the Literature: This study is essential in that it helps in providing solutions and contributes to more study content to promote for children to prevent Obesity. It is also an eye-opening study that addresses healthy behavior with changes in quality of life that should be understood and their Impact on weight loss.

Study: Ladenhauf et al. (2020). Association of infra-patellar fat pad size with age and body weight in children and adolescents.

Problem-related to PICOT: There are concerns by authors on low-grade information for children and adolescents. The main problem of the study related to my PICOT question is that it raises issues on potential mediators between Obesity and exercise.

Purpose: The study aimed to investigate the sex-specific growth of the IPFP with age and body weight in healthy children and adolescents.

Sample/Population: The study sample used 30 young where age ranged between 4 to 17 years. The study focused on sex-specific IPFP body weight ratio as dependent and age as an independent variable.

Data Collection Method: The study collected data from secondary sources. The study focused on sex-specific IPFP body weight ratio as dependent and age as an independent variable.

Significant Findings/Conclusions: The author’s findings revealed that the IPFP volume and body weight ratio remains constant between ages four and 17 years in both weight girls and boys and that IPFP volume increases with age for both children and adolescents.

Contribution to Review of the Literature: The article considers the existing studies of adolescents and children IPFP volume weigh changes that are vital obesity interventions that may factor in to help inform policymakers of new ways to develop future interventions. This article may impact other authors to conduct more studies that can improve weight control as children and adolescents grow.
