Summary

This study looked at 18 women who had sleeve gastrectomy surgery 2-3 years earlier. Researchers compared stomach emptying rates between those who lost a lot of weight and those who did not. They used MRI and a special camera to measure how fast food leaves the stomach, aiming to understand why some people lose more weight than others.
