Scientists probe hidden effects of weight loss surgery
NCT ID NCT03868592
Summary
This study aims to understand how substantial, long-term weight loss after bariatric surgery improves the body's ability to regulate fat breakdown with insulin. Researchers will measure inflammation and fat cell function in 30 adults with severe obesity before and one year after surgery. The goal is to learn the biological changes that occur with major weight loss, not to test a new treatment.
