Our CIHR team grant (also supported by Alberta Innovates, Ontario Ministry of Health, Women & Children's Health Research Institute, Obesity Canada) has ended. We will be sharing summaries of our 8 studies on #severeobesity in Canadian children. To kick things off, check out our team grant as a whole! bit.ly/2IICaZR
Congrats, @SarahCarsley and Alène Toulany!!
Study 2 of our CIHR team grant found that only 37% of children referred to #pediatric #weightmanagement enrolled in care. Conducted by researchers UAlberta Med & Dent, a Women & Children's Health Research Institute supported trainee, and Maryam Kebbe, PhD. bit.ly/3l3GsIB
Our third study showed that many children in #pediatric #weightmanagement have variable phenotypes with individual eating triggers and behaviours. Conducted by researchers The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), including Katherine Morrison and Alène Toulany! bit.ly/33kpMq2
Study 4 of our team grant was led by @AmyCMcpherson and Meaghan Walker Holland Bloorview as well as @JessHainesPhD. They interviewed youth with #AutismSpectrumDisorder about what was important to them about #weight and their bodies 🙌 Blogpost: bit.ly/2JnS8sM
Up next we have study 5 which was led by Katherine Morrison at McMaster University as part of #CANPWR. The study found that the Edmonton Obesity Staging System for #Pediatrics better defines health risks than #obesity class. Blogpost here: bit.ly/39DvozJ
