“…The results showed an increase in health knowledge among adolescents after being intervened using webcomics, but statistical analysis stated that there was no significant difference between knowledge before and after being given the intervention. The effectiveness of webcomics is seen in the increase in students' grades and understanding after the intervention (Dublin et al 2019;Rohayati, Iswari, and Pradana 2021). Other research on the use of webcomics has also been conducted (Davi dkk, 2022)stating that the use of webcomics is effective in learning mathematics at SMP Muhammadiyah 13 Surabaya, the use of web comics not only helps students but also helps teachers in the learning process.…”

The use of media following the conditions of the audience or recipient of the message is one of the success factors in giving messages. Comics are one of the most effective media for adolescents. The display of comics with pictures and colours becomes one of their attractions. The simple language and funny stories make adolescents not feel bored when reading the comic. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of comics in increasing health knowledge in adolescents. The research method used is a literature review. Twenty articles have been filtered based on inclusion and exclusion criteria published between 2018-2022. The results show that comics can increase adolescent health knowledge, even for materials that are considered sensitive. Comics are an innovation in health promotion because they are not dull. The language of comics is simple enough for teenagers to analyze. It increases their motivation to learn because they do not pressure them. Comics do not only help teenagers but also help givers of material in facilitating delivery. In addition, acceptance from teenagers also encourages the use of comics as a medium for learning health. Comics are innovations in health media that effectively increase adolescent health knowledge, even for sensitive themes. It is recommended that health agencies use comics as an educational medium to facilitate the delivery of material.

Background Prevention of obesity in children is an international public health priority given the prevalence of the condition (and its significant impact on health, development and well‐being). Interventions that aim to prevent obesity involve behavioural change strategies that promote healthy eating or 'activity' levels (physical activity, sedentary behaviour and/or sleep) or both, and work by reducing energy intake and/or increasing energy expenditure, respectively. There is uncertainty over which approaches are more effective and numerous new studies have been published over the last five years, since the previous version of this Cochrane review. Objectives To assess the effects of interventions that aim to prevent obesity in children by modifying dietary intake or ‘activity’ levels, or a combination of both, on changes in BMI, zBMI score and serious adverse events. Search methods We used standard, extensive Cochrane search methods. The latest search date was February 2023. Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials in children (mean age 5 years and above but less than 12 years), comparing diet or 'activity' interventions (or both) to prevent obesity with no intervention, usual care, or with another eligible intervention, in any setting. Studies had to measure outcomes at a minimum of 12 weeks post baseline. We excluded interventions designed primarily to improve sporting performance. Data collection and analysis We used standard Cochrane methods. Our outcomes were body mass index (BMI), zBMI score and serious adverse events, assessed at short‐ (12 weeks to < 9 months from baseline), medium‐ (9 months to < 15 months) and long‐term (≥ 15 months) follow‐up. We used GRADE to assess the certainty of the evidence for each outcome. Main results This review includes 172 studies (189,707 participants); 149 studies (160,267 participants) were included in meta‐analyses. One hundred forty‐six studies were based in high‐income countries. The main setting for intervention delivery was schools (111 studies), followed by the community (15 studies), the home (eight studies) and a clinical setting (seven studies); one intervention was conducted by telehealth and 31 studies were conducted in more than one setting. Eighty‐six interventions were implemented for less than nine months; the shortest was conducted over one visit and the longest over four years. Non‐industry funding was declared by 132 studies; 24 studies were funded in part or wholly by industry. Dietary interventions versus control Dietary interventions, compared with control, may have little to no effect on BMI at short‐term follow‐up (mean difference (MD) 0, 95% confidence interval (CI) ‐0.10 to 0.10; 5 studies, 2107 participants; low‐certainty evidence) and at medium‐term follow‐up (MD ‐0.01, 95% CI ‐0.15 to 0.12; 9 studies, 6815 participants; low‐cer...
