Résumé
Despite an increasing number of smartphone applications (apps) addressing weight management, data on the effect of app-based multimodal obesity treatment approaches on weight loss is limited. This study aimed to examine the effect of a digital multimodal weight loss intervention program delivered by an app on body weight in persons with obesity. For this single-centre randomized controlled study, 168 adults with a body mass index (BMI) between 30.0 and 40.0 kg/m 64.3% of study participants were women, mean age was 46.8 ± 11.0 years, and mean BMI was 34.2 ± 2.8 kg/m Application of a multimodal app-based weight loss program results in moderate weight loss in persons with obesity. This study was registered in the German Clinical Trials Register (Registration number: DRKS00025291).
