Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, 09/08/06

Clare E. Collins, PhD, BSc, et al. - Conclusion: It is not possible to evaluate the effectiveness of dietary treatment for childhood obesity because of the lack of high-quality studies and the heterogeneity of designs, treatment combinations, outcome measures, and follow-up.
