Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a planned, actively recruiting interventional trial comparing a cooking skills-enhanced weight management program (Chef-ID) with standard weight loss programming in young adults with intellectual disabilities. No results are yet available in this registry record; the study is designed to follow participants over 24 months with a primary outcome of weight loss at 18 months.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06961591). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: University of Kansas Medical Center. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 114 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Intellectual Disability, Overweight and Obesity. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Weight Loss Plus Cooking; BEHAVIORAL: Traditional Weight Loss. Primary outcome measures: Weight Loss Between Arms , Baseline to 18 months. Brief summary: The goal of this study is to see if adding hands-on cooking classes to a weight management program (called Chef-ID) helps young adults with intellectual disabilities lose more weight and keep it off compared to a standard weight loss program. The study will last 24 months and include three phases: 6 months of active support, 12 months of maintenance, and 6 months with no contact. The investigators will look at how much weight participants lose over the first 18 months. Changes in cooking skills, body fat, health markers (like blood pressure and cholesterol), daily living skills, and caregiver stress will be tracked. Finally, factors that might help or prevent weight loss, and how changes in weight and body fat are linked to overall health will be explored. This research will help inform on how to better support healthy lifestyles for people with intellectual disabilities.
