Energy balance
Both Colorado and Alabama participants lost significant amounts of weight after a 16-week intervention (CO 13.2 ± 4.9 kg, AL 12.5 ± 5.6 kg) with no significant difference between the states (P = 0.9315).
Weight loss interventions can be effective in different regions without significant differences in outcomes.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Both states lost a significant amount of weight (CO 13.2 ± 4.9 kg P = 0.0067; AL 12.5 ± 5.6 kg P = 0.0262) with no differences between states (P = 0.9315).
Why this rating
