Résumé
Background
The rising prevalence of obesity among preschool children has become a critical public health concern in Suzhou, China. Nevertheless, evidence-based, personalized, and multicomponent intervention strategies tailored to children with overweight or obesity remain inadequately established in current practice.

This study aims to investigate the prevalence and pathogenic factors of obesity among preschool children in Suzhou and to develop a comprehensive and multifaceted integrated intervention program. Through systematic assessment of its short-term effectiveness and long-term sustainability in improving obesity-related indicators and preventing overweight, it provides a scientific basis for obesity prevention and control.
