Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to develop and evaluate a scalable, hybrid intervention model for the co-prevention of myopia, obesity, and mental health issues among children. By integrating cognitive behavioral therapy principles, the model targets key modifiable lifestyle factors-including dietary nutrition, physical activity, screen time, sleep hygiene, light exposure, and psychological adaptation-through coordinated family-school engagement and online-to-offline delivery. Using a cluster randomized controlled trial design in grades 3-4 primary school students, the research will assess the effectiveness of this multi-component strategy in reducing the incidence and burden of these co-occurring conditions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study employs a real-world, cluster randomized controlled trial (cRCT) design conducted in primary school settings. Participants will be provided with a 6-month integrated health education program involving both families and schools, accompanied by sustained environmental modifications to support healthy behaviors. Data will be collected at four time points: baseline, immediately after the intervention, 6 months, and 12 months post-baseline, to evaluate the short- and medium-term effects of the intervention.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Usual Education Control Group

Participants in this group continue with their usual school health education curriculum and do not receive the specific interventions of this study.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Standard School Health Education

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants receive the existing health education curriculum as provided by their school, following the standard national or local guidelines, without the additional components of the study's intervention package.

Comprehensive Lifestyle Intervention Group
