The prevalence of type-2 diabetes (T2D) was 1.6 percentage points lower in patients using the digital health application.

Digital health applications may contribute to lower diabetes prevalence and improved health outcomes.

Significant reductions in weight and body mass index (BMI) were observed in participants over 12 weeks.

Practitioners can expect weight loss benefits from low-carbohydrate diets.

Participants on low-carbohydrate diets experienced significant reductions in weight and body mass index, with a mean change of 3.7 kg/m².

Low-carbohydrate diets can effectively promote weight loss in healthy adults.

Treating obesity and T2DM simultaneously is of particular interest in the treatment of T2DM.

Practitioners should consider integrated approaches for treating obesity and T2DM.

There was a strong main effect of time on weight change in the weight loss intervention.

Weight loss interventions should consider the time factor as a significant element in achieving results.

The Ketogenic diet may be one of the most extensively researched and defined dietary regimes for losing weight.

Practitioners can consider the Ketogenic diet as a well-researched option for weight loss.

Participants showed significant improvements in diet score (DS) from a mean of 1.31 at baseline to a mean of 2.36 at week 5 (P=.008).

Practitioners can consider using diet quality tracking apps to improve dietary choices in at-risk populations.

Participants showed significant improvements in Healthy Heart Score (HHS) from a mean of 22.94 at baseline to a mean of 22.15 at week 5 (P=.02).

Practitioners can utilize tools that focus on diet quality to enhance cardiovascular health in at-risk individuals.

Self-monitoring (79.4%) and goal setting (73.7%) are the core behavior change techniques used in DBCIs.

Practitioners should incorporate self-monitoring and goal setting in DBCIs for obesity.

Current DBCIs prioritize behavioral self-regulation and cardiometabolic risk improvement.

Practitioners should focus on self-regulation strategies to improve cardiometabolic health in interventions.

Mean weight loss at 8 weeks in the digital CBT group was significantly higher than in the control group (–3.1%, SD 4.5, vs –0.7%, SD 3.4, P=.04).

Digital CBT can be an effective intervention for weight loss in women with obesity.

The proportion of subjects who attained conventional 5% weight loss from baseline in the digital CBT group was significantly higher than in the control group at 8 weeks (32% vs 4%, P=.02).

A digital CBT program may significantly increase the likelihood of achieving clinically meaningful weight loss.

Mean fat mass reduction in the digital CBT group at 8 weeks was significantly greater than in the control group (–6.3%, SD 8.8, vs –0.8%, SD 8.1, P=.02).

Digital CBT can lead to significant reductions in fat mass in women with obesity.

The European Society of Cardiology provides actionable advice to incorporate UPF-related assessment into routine care.

Cardiologists should integrate UPF assessments into their patient care strategies.

HFLC diets reduced fat mass (FM) compared to MM diets with a mean difference of -2.88 kg.

Practitioners may consider HFLC diets for clients aiming to reduce fat mass.

Long term weight loss maintainers (WLM) had a 10.1 point higher HEI-2015 score compared to controls (70.2 vs 60.1; p=0.0001).

Practitioners should note that WLM demonstrate higher dietary quality as measured by the HEI-2015.

Participants in the wellness group (WG) experienced significant weight loss compared to the control group (P < .001).

Wellness groups can be effective for weight loss in community settings.

The wellness group showed significant improvements in waist circumference compared to the control group (P < .001).

Wellness groups can effectively reduce waist circumference in community settings.

The educational intervention resulted in large improvements in diet and exercise among obese peri- and post-menopausal African-American women.

Practitioners can implement educational programs to enhance diet and exercise in this demographic.

The dissertation evaluates the effectiveness of physical activity promotion in the clinical setting.

Clinicians should assess the effectiveness of their physical activity promotion strategies.

Integrating physical activity as a standard of care can improve patient outcomes.

Healthcare systems should adopt physical activity promotion as a routine part of patient care.
