First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This small study tested a new procedure that uses a special device to stitch the stomach from the inside, aiming to help people with obesity lose weight. Only 3 people took part, and the main goals were to see if the procedure is safe and leads to weight loss over 3 to 12 months. The approach is a less invasive alternative to surgery, but more research is needed.
