NCT06379802

Brief Summary

The aim of this pilot randomized controlled trial LI-PAD is to identify whether a 6-month intervention approach to individually optimize lifestyle behavior, physical activity, and diet, is feasible and leads to larger improvements in body weight, cardiovascular disease risk factors, and health-related quality of life compared to simple written lifestyle advice, in individuals with overweight or obesity. The intervention group will be offered individual support for lifestyle behavioral change (precision health) and the control group will be offered written lifestyle advice, following national recommendations. In total, 60 population-based participants and 60 controls from the Gothenburg area, aged 45-65 years, will be recruited.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Change in body weight 1

    Reduction in body weight (kg) in percent will be identified by using Lidén weighing scale.

    From baseline to 6 months

  • Change in body weight 2

    Reduction in body weight (kg) in percent will be identified by using Lidén weighing scale. Less weight at the 1-month follow-up than at baseline is a better outcome than vice versa.

    From baseline to 1 month (intervention group)

  • Change in body weight 3

    Reduction in body weight (kg) in percent will be identified by using Lidén weighing scale. Less weight at the 3-month follow-up than at the 1-month follow-up is a better outcome than vice versa.

    From 1 month to 3 months (intervention group)

  • Change in body weight 4

    Reduction in body weight (kg) in percent will be identified by using Lidén weighing scale. Less weight at the 6-month follow-up than at the 3-month follow-up is a better outcome than vice versa.

    From 3 months to 6 months (intervention group)

Secondary Outcomes (46)

  • Length in cm

    From baseline to 6 months

  • Weight in kilograms

    From baseline to 6 months

  • Cardiovascular disease risk factor change - Body Mass Index (BMI)

    From baseline to 6 months

  • Cardiovascular disease risk factor change - Waist-to-hip ratio 1

    From baseline to 6 months

  • Cardiovascular disease risk factor change - Waist-to-hip ratio 2

    From baseline to 1 month (intervention group)

  • +41 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Individualized physical activity and diet

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention group will receive (offered) an optimal prescription of physical activity and diet based on medical (comorbidities, risk profile, medications, symptoms) and psycho-social (preferences for physical activities and diet, barriers-facilitators, social support, readiness to change, accelerometry and predicted VO2-max data (Ekblom Bak ergometer test), resting energy expenditure and knowledge and skills (lifestyle education school for achieving knowledge and skills in handling change in diet and physical activity in daily life) and support (health promotors, behavioral change app, food diary app, face-to-face, phone/online coaching, physical activity (aerobic training, strength training) in group and nudging.

Behavioral: Individualized physical activity and diet

Standard of care

NO INTERVENTION

The control group will receive (be offered) usual care defined as written lifestyle advices based on the general recommendations for diet (Nordic Nutrition Recommendations, 2012. Integrating nutrition and physical activity. Copenhagen: Nordic Council of Ministers, 2014) and PA (World Health Organization. World Health Organization guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behavior, 2020), including a healthy and varied diet, aiming at 300 mins/week of medium intensity aerobic PA and strength training two times per week.
