First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will follow 5,000 adults who have had endoscopic procedures for weight loss, such as stomach stapling through a scope or gastric balloons. Researchers will track weight, blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol for up to 10 years to see how well these procedures work long-term. The goal is to better understand which treatments help people keep weight off and improve related health conditions.
