Relationship between Falls and the Use of Medications and Diseases in an Otago Exercise Programme in Old People Living in the Community in Spain.

(1) Background: Falls are a significant health problem among older adults, and can result in severe injuries, disability, and even death.

Weight Loss and Improvement of Metabolic Alterations in Overweight and Obese Children Through the IAO Family Program: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.

Childhood obesity is a major public health concern. We wanted to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary program based on healthy eating, exercise, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and health education to achieve weight loss and improve metabolic parameters in overweight and obese children. A randomized, controlled clinical trial with long-term follow-up (24 months) was conducted at a community care center in overweight and obese individuals aged 6-12 years.

Effectiveness of an Interdisciplinary Program Performed on Obese People Regarding Nutritional Habits and Metabolic Comorbidity: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.

Obesity is an important public health problem. The combined use of different therapies performed by an interdisciplinary group can improve the management of this health issue. The main goal of this research is to determine the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary program based on healthy eating, exercise, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and health education in improving metabolic comorbidity, Body Mass Index (BMI), and nutritional habits among obese adults, at short (12 months) and long term (24 months).

Short-medium-long-term efficacy of interdisciplinary intervention against overweight and obesity: Randomized controlled clinical trial.

Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a nurse-led interdisciplinary programme based on healthy eating, physical exercise, and cognitive behavioural therapy applied to anthropometric and cardiovascular measures, which are related to obesity in short, medium, and long term.

Methods: We conducted a randomised controlled clinical trial with 74 obese and overweight participants (experimental group, n = 37; control group, n = 37). An interdisciplinary programme of 12 months was applied and coordinated by a nurse.

Impact of the IAO interdisciplinary program led by nursing on psychological comorbidity and quality of life: Randomized controlled clinical trial.

Objective: Obesity is an entity of highly prevalent multifactorial origin with associated metabolic and psychological comorbidity, causing a negative impact on the quality of life of those who suffer from it. The objective is to evaluate the impact of an interdisciplinary program for nurse-led obesity on quality of life related to health and anxiety.

Methods: Randomized controlled clinical trial with a sample of 74 subjects diagnosed with obesity (EG: n=37; CG: n=37).
