目的探讨男性自我称重减肥6个月的效果。方法54例超重或肥胖男性，平均年龄40.1 ± 11.1岁，随机分为对照组（CG）和干预组（IG），对照组不进行体重自我监测，干预组进行体重自我监测。两组都接受了相同的营养和教育建议，并建立了减肥计划中要达到的体重目标。IG的受试者也有个性化的激励内容，以提高自我管理24周。在基线和每周测量人体测量指数，持续24周。结果当将随机分组后分配的组引入分析时，其对体重减轻（F1.52 = 19.465，+/- 2 = 0.272，p < 0.001）和体脂百分比降低（F1.52 = 8,306，+/- 2 = 0.132，p < 0.01）的影响显著。结论研究结果表明，自我称重可以帮助患者减轻额外的体重。我们的研究结果对正在接受减肥治疗的患者的行为方法以及临床护理过程的新兴领域具有影响。
Objective To examine the effectiveness of self-weighing for weight loss in men for 6 months. Methods In the present study, 54 men, mean age of 40.1 +/- 11.1 years, with overweight or obesity, were recruited and randomly assigned into two groups: control group (CG), without weight self-monitoring and intervention group (IG), with weight self-monitoring. Both groups received the same nutritional and educational advice and the establishment of a weight target to reach in the weight loss program. Subjects of IG also had individualized motivating content to improve self-management for 24 weeks. Anthropometric indices were measured at baseline and weekly for 24 weeks. Results When the group assigned after randomization was introduced in the analysis, its influence was significant in weight loss (F1.52 = 19.465, +/- 2 = 0.272, p < 0.001) and in the decrease in body fat percentage (F1.52 = 8,306, +/- 2 = 0.132, p < 0.01). Conclusion Study results indicate that self-weighing can help patients to lose additional weight. Our findings have implications in the emerging area of the behavioral approach of patients undergoing weight-loss treatment, as well as clinical care processes.
