Abstract Objectives: To test the effectiveness of the Whole of Systems Trial of Prevention Strategies for Childhood Obesity (WHOSTOPS) for behavioural, health related quality of life and Body Mass Index (BMI) outcomes.Design :Cluster randomized trial of ten communities randomly allocated (1:1) to start intervention in 2015(step one) or in 2019 (after 4-years).Setting:Community based trial in South West Victoria, Australia, including all major health and local council agencies.Participants: Data were collected from 59 participating primary schools April-June of 2015 (73% school participation rate); 2017 (69%), and 2019 (63%). Student participation rates were 80% in 2015 (1,792/2,516 invited), 81% in 2017 (2,411/2,963), and 79% in 2019 (2,177/2,720).Interventions: Local leaders, organisations and community members developed obesity prevention interventions and implementation measures using a five phase process to change existing conditions that lead to childhood obesity.Main outcome measures: Measured height and weight (Grades two, four and six), self-reported behavioural, and health-related quality of life (Grade four and six).Results: There was an intervention by time interaction in both age and sex standardizedBMI (BMIz) (p=0.031)and obesity/overweight prevalence (p=0.006). The control communities remained unchanged whereas BMIz and overweight/obesity prevalence decreased between 2015 and 2017 and increased between 2017 and 2019 in intervention communities. The intervention reduced take away food consumption (p=0.006) and improved physical (p=0.036) and global (p=0.036) health related quality of life. Water consumption increased among girls (p=0.019)as did energy-dense and nutrient poor snack consumption (p=0.015) and take-away food consumption among boys (p= 0.012). BMIz of the grade two cohort steadily increased.Conclusions: WHOSTOPS had a positive impact on takeaway food intake and health-related quality of life.Trial registration: Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ANZCTR): 12616000980437.Registered 26 July 2016 - Retrospectively registered https://www.anzctr.org.au/Trial/Registration/

Objective: Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is a non-surgical treatment for the arrest and prevention of dental caries that results in irreversible black staining of dental decay. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of SDF treatment on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) relative to a standard package of glass ionomer sealants and atraumatic restorative treatment. Methods: CariedAway is a pragmatic, longitudinal, cluster-randomized non- inferiority trial of non-surgical interventions for caries. Secondary study outcomes included OHRQoL and academic performance. Oral health-related quality of life was measured at each study visit using the Child Oral Health Impact Profile. Change in OHRQoL was assessed using linear regression and non-inferiority was determined using t-tests. Results: Untreated decay at baseline was associated with signifcantly worse ORHQoL and treatment in both groups resulted in incremental improvement. Quality of life in children receiving silver diamine fluoride was non-inferior to those receiving sealants and ART at least six months post-treatment. Additionally, change in OHRQoL did not depend on the severity of baseline decay. Conclusions: ORHQoL is related to untreated dental caries, however no appreciable change was observed following SDF treatment relative to standard preventive therapies.
