Scientists probe why Weight-Loss surgery changes blood sugar

NCT ID NCT02823665

Summary

This study aims to understand how two common weight-loss surgeries—gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy—affect the body's blood sugar control after eating. Researchers will compare 200 participants, including people who have had surgery, those with low blood sugar after surgery, and healthy individuals without surgery. The goal is to learn how the gut and nerves influence insulin, which could lead to better diabetes treatments in the future.
