The study sought to increase water consumption, reduce sugarsweetened beverage (SSB) intake, and prevent unhealthy weight gain via a healthy lifestyle intervention among youth newly started on a second-generation APM for psychiatric treatment. Methods: This randomized controlled trial enrolled 148 Medicaid-insured youth (ages 8–17) recently starting APM. The treatment group received both a biweekly home-delivery of bottled water and parental phone support from a family navigator. Inhome visits conducted at baseline, three months, and six months assessed the participants’height/weight and dietary intake. All participants received basic healthy lifestyle education emphasizing increased water intake and decreased SSB consumption. Longitudinal linear mixed models were conducted to examine between-group and within-group changes in BMI z-scores, and water/SSB intake. Results: No significant between-group differences in BMI z-score were found at three (p = 0.908) and six months (p = 0.919) . However, the within-group increase in BMI z-score in the control group was significant from baseline to three months (p = 0.029) . A between-group comparison found the treatment group significantly increased their water intake at three (p = 0.006) and six months (p = 0.002) . No between-group differences were identified at three and six months for the reduction in SSB, although the treatment group did demonstrate a decrease from baseline to three months (p = 0.004) . Conclusions: Neither group experienced unhealthy increases (>0.5%) in BMI z-score over the six months. Providing a safe/free water supply showed a superior improvement ","cbCaiknNhcOz0mfq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiknNhcOz0mfq","pdf",764622,18,"English","# Abstract\n## Background\n## Methods\n## Results\n## Conclusions\n# Introduction\n## Antipsychotic medication and pediatric obesity risk","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the study address for youth starting second-generation antipsychotic medication?\",\"answer\":\"Second-generation antipsychotic medication can cause weight gain and metabolic complications in youth, increasing risks such as insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes.
