Evaluating School‐Based Obesity Prevention Interventions in 6‐ to 12‐Year‐Old Children: A Scoping Review of All Reported Outcomes and Expert Consultation
There is substantial heterogeneity in outcomes reported in studies evaluating school-based overweight/obesity prevention interventions in 6- to 12-year-olds, limiting a synthesis of evidence in meta-analyses. This highlights the need for a consensus-based COS to improve the comparability and relevance of evidence of childhood obesity prevention trials.
