| Article Title and Year Published | The tittle of the article is “An open-label randomised clinical trial to compare the efficacy of dietary caloric restriction and physical activity for weight loss in overweight pet dogs.” The article was published on 2019. | The tittle of the article is “Exercise for Weight Loss: Further Evaluating Energy Compensation with Exercise” It was published on 2020. | ||
| Research Questions (Qualitative)/Hypothesis (Quantitative) | The study had two hypotheses. The first hypothesis was: dietary caloric restriction contributes weight loss in overweight pet dogs. The second hypothesis is: physical activity reduces weight in overweight pet dogs. | 12-wk aerobic exercise is effective in reducing weight of obese patients. | ||
| Purposes/Aim of Study | The purpose of the study was to determine the efficacy of dietary caloric restriction and physical activity for weight loss in overweight pet dogs. | This study assessed how individuals compensate for energy expended during a 12-wk aerobic exercise intervention, elucidating potential mechanisms and the role exercise dose plays in the compensatory response. | ||
| Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative) | An open-label randomized-control trial was used to conduct the study. | Three-arm, randomized controlled trial was used to conduct the study. | ||
| Setting/Sample | 13 overweight pet dogs. | A total of 52 sedentary adults age 18 to 40 yr, body mass index of 25 to 35. | ||
| Methods: Intervention/Instruments | Measurements included bodyweight, waist circumference, and BMI. | Instruments include ActiGraph accelerometer (GT3X+ model), GE Lunar iDXA machine, Quark RMR, and VMAX Encore Metabolic Cart. | ||
| Analysis | Data was analyzed statistically using SPSS. | Data was analyzed using SPSS. | ||
| Key Findings | The authors found that physical activity is effective in reducing weight of pet dogs. | Exercising more than 300 minutes per week led to greater fat loss. | ||
| Recommendations | The study should be conducted in human being to investigate if the same results can be recorded. | The authors recommend that people should exercise more than 300 minutes per week to effective weight loss. | ||
| Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone Project | The article supports physical activity as a weight loss intervention.
