This Project Grant award of $403,726 from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) will fund a study by Temple University to assess the use of carbon stable isotope ratio (CIR) from breath samples as an indicator of adherence and effectiveness of a 12-week behavioral intervention to reduce added sugar intake in adolescents. The study will map onto an ongoing randomized controlled trial, examining the feasibility and efficacy of using daily breath CIR measurements to capture intervention adherence, as well as comparing the feasibility, acceptability, and sensitivity to change of breath, blood, and hair CIR samples in assessing changes in added sugar intake over the 12-week intervention period. This award aims to provide robust evidence for objectively measuring intervention adherence and effectiveness, while testing approaches that could reduce participant burden and reliance on self-reported dietary data.
