Obesity / Go NAPSACC / Go NAPSACC Enhanced · Interventional Study
ClinicalTrials.gov · September 9, 2026
Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a planned 12-month cluster trial registered at ClinicalTrials.gov comparing an enhanced provider weight management intervention (Go NAPSACC Enhanced) against standard implementation (Go NAPSACC) in 84 child care centers. No results have been posted to the registry; the study remains active but not recruiting, and the effectiveness of either approach on children's diet quality, physical activity, or teacher weight remains unknown.

This is a registry record with no posted results; no efficacy, safety, or outcome data are available.
Once results are available, this trial will clarify whether training child care providers in weight management alongside environmental changes yields greater improvements in children's dietary and physical activity behaviors compared to environmental intervention alone. The findings could inform evidence-based policies for childhood obesity prevention in early care settings.
This is a registry record for an active cluster trial with no reported results; the study design is sound but outcomes remain unmeasured and unknown.

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 (NCT05656807). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center. Recruitment status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 924 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Obesity. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Go NAPSACC Enhanced; BEHAVIORAL: Go NAPSACC. Primary outcome measures: Change in Children's Diet Quality at Child Care from Baseline to 6 months , Baseline and 6 months post-intervention; Change in Children's Non-sedentary Time at Child Care from Baseline to 6 months , Baseline and 6 months post-intervention. Brief summary: The goal of this 12-month cluster clinical trial is to evaluate if improving child care providers' health behaviors using an online provider weight management program elicits meaningful change in dietary and physical activity behaviors in 2-5-year-old preschool children in their care and the child care environment. The study sample will include 84 child care centers. Including: 84 center directors, 168 2-5-year-old classroom teachers, 672 2-5-year old children. Some centers will do only the online Nutrition and Physical Activity Self-Assessment for Child Care (Go NAPSACC) program. This program works with child care center directors to make changes to their center around child nutrition and physical activity to foster healthier habits for the children enrolled in their care. Other centers will do Go NAPSACC Enhanced. This will include center directors doing Go NAPSACC and 2-5 year old teachers doing an online weight management program with support. Researchers will compare centers in Go NAPSACC with centers in Go NAPSACC Enhanced to see if there are greater improvements in children's diet quality and physical activity, as well as the nutrition and physical activity environment of centers in the Go NAPSACC Enhanced group. Additionally, they will see if there are greater improvements in teachers' weight, diet quality, and physical activity in centers using Go NAPSACC Enhanced.
