Scientists probe link between weight loss surgery and changes in mouth bacteria
NCT ID NCT05501093
Summary
This study aimed to understand how diabetes changes the bacteria in the mouth, and how weight loss (bariatric) surgery might affect these bacteria. Researchers followed 102 people having this surgery, some with diabetes and some without, collecting blood and mouth samples over about 18 months. The goal was to gather knowledge about the mouth's bacterial environment, not to test a new treatment.
