Summary
This study follows 300 people having metabolic (weight-loss) surgery to see how their gut bacteria change over time and how those changes relate to improvements in heart health, diabetes, and cholesterol. Participants provide stool, blood, and tissue samples before and up to 3 years after surgery, with follow-up lasting up to 10 years. The goal is to learn how gut microbes affect surgical outcomes, which could lead to better treatments for obesity-related diseases.
