Brain surgery may rewire food cravings, study suggests

NCT ID NCT07301554

Summary

This study aims to understand if surgery for a specific brain tumor (craniopharyngioma) changes what foods people like, particularly high-fat and high-sugar items. Researchers will compare food preferences in adults who had this surgery to other patient groups and healthy people. The goal is to learn if these cravings help explain the severe, hard-to-treat weight gain some patients experience after surgery.
