Scientists probe hidden hormone link in obesity surgery success

NCT ID NCT04844684

Summary

This study aims to understand why weight-loss surgery is so effective by examining the relationship between two key body chemicals: cortisol (a stress hormone) and bile acids (digestive chemicals). Researchers will measure these chemicals in 30 obese women before and after they undergo gastric bypass surgery. The goal is to learn how surgery changes these chemicals and whether those changes explain the surgery's benefits for weight loss and metabolism.
