Evaluation of the experience of people referred under the NHS enhanced service incentive for obesity to the NHS digital weight management programme
Background Internationally, guidelines recommend clinicians identify patients living with obesity and offer referral to weight management programmes, especially patients with related co-morbidities. In 2021, NHS England introduced the NHS Digital Weight Management Programme for people living with obesity and a diagnosis of hypertension or diabetes or both. The programme is offered at three levels of intensity with people triaged to the appropriat…
Risk factors for eating disorder symptoms at 15 years of age
Eating disorders (EDs) are typically diagnosed in the later stages of puberty, but risk factors for EDs are present in pre-pubertal children. This longitudinal, population-based birth cohort study aimed to examine prospective predictors of eating disorder symptoms in 15-year-olds. Specifically, we sought to test an adapted dual pathway model of disordered eating aetiology in this group. Participants in the Gateshead Millennium Study birth cohort …
Implementation of Universal Infant Free School Meals
Objective: To consider the principal effect of an interaction between year (pre- and post-Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM)) and school on pupil’s dietary intakes. Design: A repeated cross-sectional survey using dietary data from 2008 to 2009 (pre-) and 2017 to 2018 (post-UIFSM) Setting: Two primary schools, NE England. Participants: Pupils aged 4–7 years (2008–2009 n 121; 2017–2018 n 87). Results: At lunchtime, there was a statistically…
Timing of the decline in physical activity in childhood and adolescence
BACKGROUND AND AIM: There is a widely held and influential view that physical activity begins to decline at adolescence. This study aimed to identify the timing of changes in physical activity during childhood and adolescence. METHODS: Longitudinal cohort study (Gateshead Millennium Study) with 8 years of follow-up, from North-East England. Cohort members comprise a socioeconomically representative sample studied at ages 7, 9, 12 and 15 years; 54…
Risk factors for eating disorder symptoms at 12 years of age
Eating disorders pose risks to health and wellbeing in young adolescents, but prospective studies of risk factors are scarce and this has impeded prevention efforts. This longitudinal study aimed to examine risk factors for eating disorder symptoms in a population-based birth cohort of young adolescents at 12 years. Participants from the Gateshead Millennium Study birth cohort (n = 516; 262 girls and 254 boys) completed self-report questionnaire …
Perceptions of nursery staff and parent views of healthy eating promotion in preschool settings
There is a need to further explore nursery staff members' personal perceptions of health and how food policies which promote healthier food in preschool settings can be embedded and implemented. Family friendly healthy eating strategies and activities which utilise nudge theory should be developed and delivered in a manner that is sensitive to parents' concerns. Preschool settings may offer an opportunity for delivery of such activities
Objective measurement of sedentary behavior
Using different non-wear time rules results in significant differences in daily sedentary time and changes in sedentary time. Correcting for wear time appears to be a reasonable approach to limiting these differences and may improve comparability between future studies. Using the 20 min rule, while correcting for wear time, provided the most accurate estimates of sedentary time and changes in sedentary time, compared to the manual reference in 9-…
A cluster randomised trial testing an intervention to improve parents’ recognition of their child’s weight status
Current Controlled Trials ISRCTN91136472. Registered 3 May 2013
To what extent do weight gain and eating avidity during infancy predict later adiposity
Objective To determine the extent to which weight gain and eating behaviours in infancy predict later adiposity. Design Population-based, prospective, longitudinal birth cohort study. Weights collected in infancy were used to calculate Z -scores for weight gain to age 1 year conditional on birth weight (CWG). To avoid multiple significance tests, variables from the parent questionnaire completed at age 1 year describing eating avidity were combin…
Socio-economic differences in exposure to television food advertisements in the UK
Objective To document socio-economic differences in exposure to food advertising, including advertisements for foods high in fat, salt and sugar (HFSS) as defined by the UK Food Standards Agency's Nutrient Profiling Model. Design A cross-sectional survey. Information (including product advertised and viewing figures) on all advertisements broadcast in one UK region over one week (6–12 July 2009) was obtained. Food advertisements were identified a…

Accuracy of estimates of food portion size using food photographs – the importance of using age-appropriate tools
Background In order to obtain a measure of nutrient intake, a measure or estimate of the amount of food consumed is required. Weighing foods imposes a large burden on subjects, often resulting in underreporting. Tools are available to assist subjects in providing an estimate of portion size and these include food photographs. The application of these tools in improving portion size estimation by children has not been investigated systematically. …
Longitudinal dietary change from adolescence to adulthood
Dietary patterns and change in eating habits are influenced by multiple factors from an individual's internal and external environment. A longitudinal dietary survey study provided quantitative evidence of dietary change and investigated factors influencing dietary change from adolescence to adulthood, using sociodemographic data and participants' own perceptions of, and attributions for, their dietary change. Longitudinal dietary data were obtai…
Nutrition interventions by primary care staff
Objective: To undertake a survey to investigate the quality and format of nutrition health promotion in UK primary care. Data from both primary care practitioners – i.e. level of nutritional knowledge and attitude towards nutrition interventions – and patients – i.e. the format and quality of dietary consultations – are presented. Design: A self-completion questionnaire was used to assess nutritional knowledge and attitude of primary care staff t…
