Recruiting now · Not applicable · 1 countries · Registry ID NCT07185789
What this study is about
The aims is to evaluate the effects of an multidimensional intervention on the physical-built and social environment around schools and the nutritional status of the school population, through a randomized community trial, in schools in 3 states of the Mexican Republic, using anthropometric indicators, biological, psychological, behavioral and environmental. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the main risk and protective factors for overweight and obesity in the school environment and in the environments around schools in primary education schools in three states of the Mexican Republic? 2. Is there a relationship between risky eating behaviors and the body mass index of schoolchildren? 3. Are the strategies that are being implemented effective in reducing the presence of risk factors and increasing the presence of protective factors for overweight and obesity in the school environment and in the environments around schools? 4. Are the strategies that are being implemented effective in reducing the presence of risk factors and increasing the protective factors for overweight and obesity in the family environment?

Treatments and study arms
Healthy and Sustainable Eating
Animated projections, snacks that incorporate fruits and/or vegetables, measuring their hydration status through images where they can observe the color of their urine and relate it to the amount of plain water they have consumed, as well as activities through the mobile messaging platform, WhatsApp.
Movement behaviors
Animated projections, snacks that incorporate fruits and/or vegetables, measuring their hydration status through images where they can observe the color of their urine and relate it to the amount of plain water they have consumed, as well as activities through the mobile messaging platform, WhatsApp.
Psychosocial determinants
Workshops on key topics of psychosocial determinants in children, virtual workshops on topics of psychosocial determinants such as obesity and healthy eating.
Primary outcomes
This outcome is designed to provide a fundamental assessment of the participant's cardiometabolic health status at the beginning of the study. It focuses on measuring key circulating molecules that are central to energy metabolism and cardiovascular risk. To achieve this, we will collect blood samples and analyze them for the core analytes that constitute a standard lipid panel and metabolic check: Glucose (mg/dL) Total Cholesterol (mg/dL) HDL-c (%) Triglycerides (mg/dL) The concentration of each of these analytes will be determined using Enzymatic Spectrophotometry.
We will measure the levels of Leptin, Adiponectin, IL-6, Galectin-3, HbA1c. We ELISA for the proteins, HPLC for HbA1c. Units: The results for the proteins will be reported in ng/mL, HbA1c as a percentage (%).
