This sub-study aims to evaluate the intervention by (a) examining changes in dietary intake and nutritional biomarkers and (b) examining predictors of weight loss. Dietary intake was evaluated using four-day food diaries, and analysis of plasma fatty acids and plasma carotenoids as biomarkers of dietary fat intake and fruit and vegetable intake, respectively. Twenty-eight obese COPD subjects (n = 17 males, n = 11 females) with a mean (standard deviation; SD) age of 67.6 (6.3) years completed the 12-week weight loss intervention. Pre-intervention, mean (SD) BMI was 36.3 (4.6) kg/m². Micronutrient intake improved from pre- to post-intervention, with the percentage of subjects meeting the Nutrient Reference Values increased for all micronutrients. Post-intervention, significant decreases in total (p = 0.009) and saturated fat intake (p = 0.037), and corresponding decreases in total (p = 0.007) and saturated plasma fatty acids (p = 0.003) were observed. There was a trend towards higher total carotenoids post-intervention (p = 0.078). Older age (p = 0.025), higher pre-intervention uncontrolled eating (p < 0.001) and plasma carotenoids (p = 0.009) predicted weight loss. This demonstrates the efficacy of a weight loss intervention in improving diet quality of obese COPD adults.]]> Thu 24 Mar 2022 11:34:09 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39780 Mon 25 Jul 2022 11:26:17 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53538 Mon 04 Dec 2023 15:44:36 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33965 Fri 25 Jan 2019 14:42:22 AEDT ]]>
