Brief summary
The RAINBOW study is an NIH R01-funded randomized controlled trial to evaluate the clinical and cost effectiveness and implementation potential of a primary care integrated multicondition intervention program to help improve mood and weight for obese adults with clinically significant depressive symptoms. The ENGAGE study is a mechanistic investigation added to the main trial with funding through the NIH common fund for the Science of Behavior Change roadmap initiative. Beginning Jan 11, 2016, at least 100 of newly enrolled trial participants will be consented to undergo additional assays evaluating neurobiological mechanisms of self-regulation.
Detailed description
The large numbers of primary care patients affected by coexisting obesity and depression and common risk factors for diabetes and heart disease underscore the urgency of developing effective, accessible, and sustainable interventions that use an integrated, multicondition care management approach. The RAINBOW trial will rigorously evaluate the clinical and cost effectiveness and potential for real-world implementation of an innovative intervention that integrates a behavioral weight loss program and a collaborative stepped care program for depression, incorporates conventional clinic- and home-based modes of care delivery (e.g., office visits plus phone consults and take-home DVD), and leverages low-cost, wide-reach health information technologies (e.g., Web, secure email, and mobile texting). Beginning Jan 11, 2016, at least 100 of newly enrolled trial participants will also be consented to undergo additional assays evaluating neurobiological mechanisms of self-regulation, including emotional regulation, cognitive control and self-reflection. Given its focus on transforming primary care management of obesity and depression and common cardiometabolic risk factors to evidence-based, patient-centered care, as well as the likely scalability of the proposed intervention, the study has high potential for significant clinical and public health impact. Furthermore, elucidating the neurobiological mechanisms of self-regulation will significantly advance precision lifestyle medicine by enabling mechanism-targeted individualization of treatment.

| Change in Activation of Left Amygdala From Baseline Functional Magnetic Resonance Scan at 2 Months (Regulation of Emotion) | Baseline, 2 months | Regulation of emotion, specially activation of the amygdala for nonconscious threat-related emotional reactivity, is assessed using fMRI. In the facial emotion viewing paradigm, facial expression stimuli are standardized black and white photographs of 8 identities (4 female, 4 male) with evoked expressions of threat-related emotions (fear, anger), sad-related emotions (sadness) and reward-related emotions (happiness), along with neutral. To assess amygdala activation for the negative affect circuit, our analysis focused on threatening faces only. Threat stimuli included a combination of fear and anger stimuli relative to neutral blocks. A hemodynamic response convolved boxcar function was used to model the BOLD response for each block of emotional expressions to threat and to sadness relative to neutral face blocks. General linear models were then specified for each task to investigate the contrasts of interest. Higher beta-weight indicates higher activation of the amygdala. |

General linear models were then specified for each task to investigate the contrasts of interest. Higher beta-weight indicates higher activation of the amygdala. |
| Leisure Time Physical Activity | 7-day Physical Activity Recall was administered at 12 months | Physical activity was assessed as metabolic equivalent task (MET) minutes per week of leisure-time physical activity of at least moderate intensity based on the sum of the weighted physical activity minutes for moderate (weight: 4 METs), hard (weight: 6 METs), and very hard (weight: 10 METs) activities from the 7-day Physical Activity Recall. |
| Total Energy Expenditure | 7-day Physical Activity Recall was administered at 12 months | Totally energy expenditure was measured using the 7-day Physical Activity Recall and provides estimates of total daily energy expenditures (total energy expenditure = sleep hours × 1 MET + light activity hours × 1.5 METs + moderate activity hours × 4 METs + hard activity hours × 6 METs + very hard activity hours × 10 METs). |

| DASH (Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension) Score | One day's 24-hour dietary recall was administered at 12 months | Using 24-hour diet recalls, DASH scores were calculated based on combining nine nutrient targets (i.e. total fat, saturated fat, protein, cholesterol, fiber, magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium). The intermediate target of each nutrient was half-way between the DASH target and population mean (based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys 2007-2008, latest data available at the inception of the study). For a nutrient, participants reaching the DASH target were assigned one point, those reaching the intermediate target were assigned a half-point, and those not meeting the intermediate target were given 0 points. The DASH score was the sum of points for all nine nutrients and ranged from 0 to 9. DASH score is a measure of diet quality, with higher score indicating higher diet quality |

DASH (Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension) Score

The intermediate target of each nutrient was half-way between the DASH target and population mean (based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys 2007-2008, latest data available at the inception of the study). For a nutrient, participants reaching the DASH target were assigned one point, those reaching the intermediate target were assigned a half-point, and those not meeting the intermediate target were given 0 points. The DASH score was the sum of points for all nine nutrients and ranged from 0 to 9. DASH score is a measure of diet quality, with higher score indicating higher diet quality
