The nutrition and enjoyable activity for teen girls study: a cluster randomized controlled trial.
Obesity prevention among youth of low SES is a public health priority given the higher prevalence of youth obesity in this population subgroup. ⋯ The NEAT Girls intervention did not result in effects on the primary outcome. Further study of youth who are "at risk" of obesity should focus on strategies to improve retention and adherence in prevention programs.
