Our aim was to design and evaluate a weight-loss program, including a partial meal replacement program, point-of-care testing and face-to-face and smartphone app support, appropriate for delivery in a community pharmacy setting. Overweight or obese adults (n = 146, 71.2% female, 48.18 ± 11.75 years old) were recruited to participate in a 24-week weight loss study and randomised to two app conditions. The dietary intervention was consistent regardless of app. Twelve weeks of clinic appointments with a trained consultant were followed by only app support for an additional 12 weeks. By week 24, retention was 57.5%. There were no differences between app conditions. Based on a cohort analysis of the trial, the mean decrease in weight from baseline to week 24 was 6.43 ± 1.06 kg for males (p < 0.001) and 5.66 ± 0.70 kg for females (p < 0.001). Mixed models also revealed decreases for LDL Cholesterol (-0.13 ± 0.08 mmol/L, nonsignificant), triglycerides (-0.08 ± 0.05 mmol/L, nonsignificant) and an increase in HDL cholesterol (+0.08 ± 0.04 mmol/L, ns) were not significant by week 24. Blood glucose (-0.23 ± 0.08 mmol/L, p = 0.040) and blood pressure (Systolic blood pressure -5.77 ± 1.21 Hg/mm, p < 0.001) were significantly lower at week 24 compared to baseline. Weight loss self-efficacy increased and remained significantly higher than baseline at week 24 (16.85 ± 2.93, p < 0.001). Overall, the program supported participants and was successful in achieving significant weight loss and improvements in health outcomes over 24 weeks.
我们的目标是设计并评估一项减肥计划,该计划包括部分代餐计划、即时检测以及面对面和智能手机应用程序支持,适合在社区药房环境中实施。招募了超重或肥胖成年人(n = 146,女性占71.2%,年龄48.18 ± 11.75岁)参与一项为期24周的减肥研究,并随机分为两种应用程序条件组。无论应用程序如何,饮食干预都是一致的。在与经过培训的顾问进行12周的门诊预约后,仅通过应用程序支持再持续12周。到第24周时,保留率为57.5%。两种应用程序条件组之间没有差异。基于该试验的队列分析,从基线到第24周,男性体重平均下降6.43 ± 1.06千克(p < 0.001),女性体重平均下降5.66 ± 0.70千克(p < 0.001)。混合模型还显示,到第24周时,低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(-0.13 ± 0.08毫摩尔/升,无显著差异)、甘油三酯(-0.08 ± 0.05毫摩尔/升,无显著差异)下降,高密度脂蛋白胆固醇升高(+0.08 ± 0.04毫摩尔/升,无显著差异)均无显著意义。与基线相比,第24周时血糖(-0.23 ± 0.08毫摩尔/升,p = 0.040)和血压(收缩压-5.77 ± 1.21毫米汞柱,p < 0.001)显著降低。减肥自我效能感增强,在第24周时仍显著高于基线(16.85 ± 2.93,p < 0.001)。总体而言,该计划为参与者提供了支持,并在为期24周的时间里成功实现了显著的体重减轻和健康结果改善。
