Scientists probe Liver's inner workings to predict surgery success
NCT ID NCT03997422
Summary
This study aims to understand how the liver's energy production changes in people with fatty liver disease (NASH) who are undergoing weight loss surgery. Researchers will measure how the liver burns fat and makes sugar in 30 participants before their surgery. The goal is to see if these measurements can predict how well the liver will heal after the procedure.
