The quality of life was assessed by the pediatric quality of life inventory™ version 4.0 generic core scales (PedsQL™). This is the universal tool for assessing the health-related quality of life in children [ 24]. The Thai version self-report questionnaire consists of 23 items that measure four-function domains: physical, emotional, social, and school. The psychosocial health summary scores were derived from combined mean scores of emotional, social, and school functioning domains. The mean scores of all functioning domains contribute to the total summary score. The higher mean scores indicate a better quality of life. The previous Thai research evaluated the psychometric properties of PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales - Thai. Most of the domains in this tool had an acceptable level of internal consistency with Cronbach’s α of ≥0.65 [ 25].

A secondary analysis was conducted to evaluate the post-treatment effect on growth parameters measured at 6-month follow-up between two groups using a generalized linear model approach. After adjusting for weight at baseline, the post-treatment weight of the intervention group was lower than the standard care group, but was not statistically significant (mean difference, − 0.53 [95% CI, − 2.43 to 1.37]), as shown in Supplementary Table 1 (See Additional file 2).
