Do stomachs stretch after surgery, causing weight regain?
NCT ID NCT01963637
Summary
This study aimed to understand why some people regain weight after gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy surgery. Researchers followed 45 patients for a year, using a special 3D scan to measure if their new, smaller stomach pouch stretched over time. They wanted to see if this stretching was linked to weight regain, which could help improve future surgical techniques and patient care.
