Summary
This study looked at 36 adults with severe obesity who had laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, a type of weight-loss surgery. Researchers measured blood levels of Phoenixin-14, a hormone that may affect appetite, before and after surgery. The goal was to see if the surgery changes this hormone, which could help explain how the procedure reduces hunger.
