day care settings https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21228 Romp & Chomp controlled trial, which aimed to prevent obesity in preschool Australian children, was recently found to reduce the prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity and improve children's dietary patterns. The intervention focused on capacity building and policy implementation within various early childhood settings. This paper reports on the process and impact evaluation of this trial and the lessons learned from this complex community intervention. Methods: Process data was collected throughout and audits capturing nutrition and physical activity-related environments and practices were completed postintervention by directors of Long Day Care (LDC) centers (n = 10) and preschools (n = 41) in intervention and comparison (n = 161 LDC and n = 347 preschool) groups. Results: The environmental audits demonstrated positive impacts in both settings on policy, nutrition, physical activity opportunities, and staff capacity and practices, although results varied across settings and were more substantial in the preschool settings. Important lessons were learned in relation to implementation of such community-based interventions, including the significant barriers to implementing health-promotion interventions in early childhood settings, lack of engagement of for-profit LDC centers in the evaluation, and an inability to attribute direct intervention impacts when the intervention components were delivered as part of a health-promotion package integrated with other programs. Conclusions: These results provide confidence that obesity prevention interventions in children's settings can be effective; however, significant efforts must be directed toward developing context-specific strategies that invest in policies, capacity building, staff support, and parent engagement. Recognition by funders and reviewers of the difficulties involved in implementing and evaluating such complex interventions is also critical to strengthening the evidence base on the effectiveness of such public health approaches to obesity prevention.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:53:04 AEDT ]]> Birth territory and midwifery guardianship: theory for practice, education and research https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5718 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:45:30 AEDT ]]> Systematic review and meta-analyses of strategies targeting alcohol problems in emergency departments: interventions reduce alcohol-related injuries https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5226 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:44:19 AEDT ]]> Activities of home-based heart failure nurse specialists: A modified narrative analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:125 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:43:17 AEDT ]]> Clinical management of deliberate self-harm in young people: the need for evidence-based approaches to reduce repetition https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:57 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:42:02 AEDT ]]> ImProving outcomes after STroke (POST): results from the randomized clinical pilot trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28656 n = 100) for five-months following hospital discharge after stroke (plus usual care) and compared with usual care (n = 101).

Results: No significant difference was seen in the proportion of participants with depression in the intervention group (1/88) vs. the control group (3/76) (relative risk 0·29, 95% confidence interval 0·03–2·71) at six-months. No significant differences were seen on Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) depression and anxiety sub-scale scores, quality of life, or activities of daily living; however, many (47/100) responded positively to the postcards. Conclusions: Although this simple postcard intervention did not significantly reduce the proportion of participants experiencing high HADS depression sub-scale scores after stroke, it may be an effective way to engage with people after stroke following hospital discharge.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:37:13 AEDT ]]> Brain imaging correlates of emerging schizophrenia https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23563 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:14:10 AEDT ]]> 'The one that got away': how angling as a culture of practice manifests in the teaching and learning relationship within angling-based intervention programmes https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23954 cultural apprenticeship, socialising young people into an experience-based learning community.

The primary outcome was percentage of lesson time spent in MVPA. Secondary outcomes included students' vigorous activity, counts per minute, perceived autonomy support and motivation for physical education. Accelerometer-based activity measures were taken from a sub-sample of 168 students during lessons 1 to 3 (baseline) and lessons 5 to 7 (treatment phase). Participants self-reported motivation variables at lessons 4 and 8. Teachers allocated to the experimental group included an intervention during treatment phase; those in the control group continued usual practices. The intervention involved a 15-minute rope skipping activity where students completed intervals of skipping with rests in between. Using multilevel modeling, we examined the intervention effects on measured outcomes, and whether effects differed for boys and girls. Overall intervention effects were not found. However, girls in the intervention group spent more time in MVPA (β = 0.25) and had higher counts per minute (β = 0.32) than control group counterparts at treatment phase. Perceived autonomy support and motivation variables were similar across groups. The intervention increased activity levels of girls, but not boys. Implementation of the intervention may reduce differences between boys' and girls' physical education activity levels.]]> Mon 29 Aug 2022 15:03:10 AEST ]]> Impact of scheduling multiple free-play periods in childcare on child moderate-to-vigorous physical activity: a cluster randomised trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32026 Mon 23 Sep 2019 11:59:16 AEST ]]> Physical activity coaching by Australian Exercise Physiologists is cost effective for patients referred from general practice https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32776 Mon 23 Sep 2019 11:07:29 AEST ]]> The effectiveness of a web 2.0 physical activity intervention in older adults - a randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32775 Mon 23 Sep 2019 10:47:46 AEST ]]> Preliminary efficacy and feasibility of embedding high intensity interval training into the school day: a pilot randomized controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22644 Mon 23 Jul 2018 13:24:16 AEST ]]> Indigenous Knowledge-Sharing Interventions in Australia and the Use of Information and Communication Technology: A Scoping Review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53948 Mon 22 Jan 2024 16:57:37 AEDT ]]> The efficacy of a multi-strategy choice architecture intervention on improving the nutritional quality of high school students’ lunch purchases from online canteens (Click & Crunch High Schools): a cluster randomized controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51102 Mon 21 Aug 2023 14:53:16 AEST ]]> The feasibility and acceptability of implementing and evaluating a caregiver group intervention to address child mental health: A pilot study in Iraq https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50938 Mon 14 Aug 2023 12:58:09 AEST ]]> Feasibility and preliminary results of a call centre delivered continuing care intervention following residential alcohol and other drug treatment https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51587 Mon 11 Sep 2023 15:18:01 AEST ]]> Does matching a personally tailored physical activity intervention to participants’ learning style improve intervention effectiveness and engagement? https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54108 Mon 05 Feb 2024 09:56:03 AEDT ]]> Impact of risk of generalizability biases in adult obesity interventions: A meta-epidemiological review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46806 Mon 05 Dec 2022 08:44:41 AEDT ]]> A 12-week commercial web-based weight-loss program for overweight and obese adults: randomized controlled trial comparing basic versus enhanced features https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12881 Mon 03 Sep 2018 12:55:00 AEST ]]> Understanding the role of educational interventions on medication adherence in hypertension: A systematic review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41222 d = 0.18 (95% CI 0.01–0.34, p < 0.04).

Healthcare professionals should adopt innovative ways of ensuring regular follow-ups and making educational sessions more interactive and useful to patients.]]> Fri 29 Jul 2022 09:50:34 AEST ]]> Dietary outcomes of the 'healthy youngsters, healthy dads' randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38991 Healthy Youngsters, Healthy Dads, on change in dietary intake in fathers and their preschool-aged children post-intervention (10 weeks) and at 9 months follow-up compared to a waitlist control group and (ii) investigate associations in father-child dietary intakes. Methods: Linear mixed models estimated group-by-time effects for all dietary outcomes, measured by food frequency questionnaires. Cohen's d determined effect sizes, while correlation tests determined associations in father-child dietary intakes. Results: For children, medium group-by-time effects sizes were identified at 10 weeks for sodium intake (d = 0.38) and percentage energy from core foods (d = 0.43), energy-dense, nutrient-poor (EDNP) foods (d = 0.43) and prepacked snacks (d = 0.45). These findings were sustained at 9 months follow-up. For fathers, medium to large, group-by-time effect sizes were identified at 10 weeks for energy intake (d = 0.55), sodium intake (d = 0.64) and percentage energy from core foods (d = 0.49), EDNP foods (d = 0.49), and confectionary (d = 0.36). For all of these dietary variables, except sodium, effects were sustained at 9 months. Moderate to strong associations existed in father-child dietary intakes for some of the dietary variables. Conclusions: Although further research is required, this study provides preliminary support for targeting fathers as agents of change to improve dietary intakes in their preschool-aged children.]]> Fri 25 Mar 2022 15:52:33 AEDT ]]> Piloting an antenatal tobacco smoking intervention that incorporates financial incentives in women with other substance use problems during pregnancy https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48467 Fri 17 Mar 2023 13:08:29 AEDT ]]> An emotion regulation and impulse control (ERIC) intervention for vulnerable young people: a multi-sectoral pilot study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47231 Fri 16 Dec 2022 12:08:53 AEDT ]]> Identification and evaluation of risk of generalizability biases in pilot versus efficacy/effectiveness trials: A systematic review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41558 Fri 05 Aug 2022 14:31:00 AEST ]]> Using a Mixed-Reality Micro-teaching Program to Support “at Risk” Pre-service Teachers https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52968 Fri 03 Nov 2023 15:23:43 AEDT ]]> Effectiveness of family-based weight management interventions for children with overweight and obesity: an umbrella review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35555 Fri 03 Dec 2021 10:34:27 AEDT ]]> Interventions that Address Institutional Child Maltreatment: An Evidence and Gap Map https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53507 Fri 01 Dec 2023 10:45:41 AEDT ]]>
