We sought to examine the effects of the pandemic on weight and weight\u2010related behaviours among children with overweight and obesity participating in an ongoing cluster randomized controlled trial of a paediatric practice\u2010based weight intervention with 2 study arms: nutritionist\u2010delivered coaching telephone calls over 8\u2009weeks with an accompanying workbook on lifestyle changes versus the same workbook in eight mailings without nutritionist coaching calls. In a pooled, secondary analysis of 373 children in central Massachusetts (aged 8\u201312\u2009years, 29% Latinx, 55% White, 8% Black), the monthly rate of BMI increase more than doubled for those children whose 6\u2010month study visit occurred post\u2010pandemic onset (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a091) compared to children whose 6\u2010month study visit occurred pre\u2010pandemic onset (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0282) (0.13\u2009kg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>versus 0.05\u2009kg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>; ratio\u00a0=\u00a02.47,<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.02). The post\u2010pandemic onset group also had a significant decrease in activity levels (<jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\u22128.18 MVPA minutes\/day,<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.01). Caloric intake and screen time did not differ between the pre\u2010 and post\u2010pandemic onset groups. These findings show that after the start of the pandemic, children with overweight and obesity experienced an increase in weight and decrease in activity levels. This data can inform public health strategies to address pandemic\u2010related effects on childhood obesity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ijpo.12959","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,25]],"date-time":"2022-07-25T11:35:15Z","timestamp":1658748915000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Impact
