Surgery vs. ozempic: which saves more muscle?

NCT ID NCT07115069

Summary

This study aims to compare two major weight loss treatments—new injectable medications (like Ozempic or Mounjaro) and gastric bypass surgery—to see how they differently affect the body. Researchers will follow 60 adults with severe obesity for one year, using body scans to measure changes in fat and muscle, and surveys to track side effects like nausea. The goal is to help doctors and patients better understand the trade-offs of each treatment option.
