Residential Neighbourhood Environments and Health Behaviours Among Children and Adolescents Initiating Obesity Management Care: Secondary Analyses of Data From the <scp>CANadian</scp> Paediatric Weight Management Registry ( <scp>CANPWR</scp> )
This study adds to the evidence linking neighbourhood environments to health behaviours in children and adolescents living with obesity and who are initiating obesity management care. Specifically, less social deprivation and greater walkability and greenness were associated with higher PA among boys, while less material deprivation was linked to higher PA among girls.
