The original publication is available at www.sciencedirect.com ; Objective: To examine the effects of a multi-component overweight intervention on inflammatory markers and adipokines in children. Methods: One hundred and fifteen children were recruited in Odense, Denmark (2011-2014). The participants were randomly allocated to either the day camp intervention arm (DCIA) or the standard intervention arm (SIA). The intervention for the DCIA comprised a 6-week camp intervention and a 46-week family-based intervention. The SIA was offered one weekly physical activity session for 6 weeks and one educational meeting. C-reactive protein (CRP), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP1), leptin, and adiponectin were measured in serum at baseline, 6 weeks and 52 weeks. Results: Compared with the SIA, the reductions in CRP (P=0.003) and leptin (p
