Review Meta Analysis[Prevention of overweight in children: Standard setting documents].
The quality of preventive measures is an essential precondition for their success. A current objective of health policy in Germany is to find the criteria for quality, as well as to process and discuss them systematically with relevant stakeholders. ⋯ To develop common standards, mutual recognition is needed between actors of the field, science and politics. The scientific discourse needs to interrelate better studies of primary prevention with overweight research as well as quality assessment.

Meta Analysis[Reduce sedentary behaviour among children - a systematic review].
Sedentary behaviour is itself a health-related behaviour. This systematic review examines whether family-based interventions can reduce sitting time among children and adolescents and which variables moderate potential intervention effects. ⋯ There are many promising opportunities to reduce sitting time using family-based approaches. Statements in terms of replication of interventions and explanations of the effective mechanisms within interventions are limited. Therefore, future interventions should use subjective as well as objective evaluation measures and consider overall sitting time. To strengthen the basis of interventional effort in this research field, a theoretical planning approach is recommended.
