An interventional study of Physical Exercise in Obesity, Overweight and Adolescent Obesity, sponsored by University of Santa Cruz do Sul. Status unknown at 1 site in Brazil. Open to participants aged 10 Years to 17 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-08-31.
Sponsored by University of Santa Cruz do Sul · Not applicable, Interventional, and Basic science
The study aims to evaluate the possible effects of an exercise program, nutritional and psychological, postural orientation and guidance of oral health on body composition, physical activity levels and lifestyle, physical fitness and health and motor performance, the factors risk of cardiovascular disease, eating habits, the cognition levels, the psychological profile, the body posture of children and adolescent with overweight and obesity, considering the presence of risk genotype associated with the development of obesity. In addition, identify the effects of orientation for oral health on the quality of life and healthy oral habits.
1,129 studies on the registry are indexed under Pediatric Obesity; 187 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 60 is below the median of 100 across 870 interventional studies indexed under Pediatric Obesity.

Exclusion Criteria:
Be in possession of any kind of illness, abnormality or health problem such as:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Adolescent Obesity The exercise program, nutritional counseling and oral health will last for five to three months and will be held in the gym and rooms of the University of Santa Cruz do Sul (UNISC). The sessions will last two hours (one hour of physical exercise and the second time divided into nutritional counseling, postural, psychological and oral) with a frequency of three times a week.
Behavioral: Physical Exercise

Change from body mass index (BMI) at 3 months
Weight and height will be evaluated early in the morning in a fasting state, with the student wearing light clothing and shoes. The BMI will be classified as normal BMI, overweight or obesity.The BMI will be classified according to the percentage curves of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention / National Center for Health Statistics (CDC/NCHS) (2010) according to gender and age, considering the low weight (\<p5), normal weight (p5 and \<p85), overweight (p 85 and \<p 95) and obesity (p 95).
Time frame: Baseline and 3 months.
Change from the percentage of body fat at 3 months
To measure body fat percentage (BF%), a Lange (Beta Technology Incorporated) compass will be used to measure triceps and subscapular skinfolds. The equation of Slaughter et al. (1998) will be applied, and data will be classified according to Lonman's data, as mentioned by Heyward and Stolarczyk (2000).
Time frame: Baseline and 3 months.
Change from the waist circumference (WC) at 3 months
Waist circumference (WC) was measured with an inelastic tape, using the narrowest part of the trunk between the ribs and the iliac crest and the hip at the greater trochanter level as references. The subjects were then classified according to Taylor et al. (2000), defining the normal circumference percentile as \<80 and obesity percentile as \>80 according to gender and age.
Time frame: Baseline and 3 months.
Started Aug 2017 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Nov 2017, 3 months after the start.
Of 539 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Pediatric Obesity, half reached primary completion within 25 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 45. This study's planned 3 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 541 studies reached it within 25 months; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 45.
