Massive study reveals how sleeve gastrectomy holds up over time
NCT ID NCT07280845
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at nearly 20,000 people in Sweden who had sleeve gastrectomy surgery for severe obesity. Researchers analyzed registry data to see how much weight patients lost, how long they kept it off, and whether related health problems like diabetes improved or went away. They also tracked complications and how often patients needed a second surgery. The goal is to give doctors and patients a clearer picture of what to expect in the long run.
