NCT ID NCT01396096
Summary
This study aimed to understand if a person's genes affect how well they lose weight after bariatric surgery. Researchers collected blood samples and health data from 2,500 people who had already undergone the surgery. The goal was to see if genetic differences could help explain why surgery outcomes vary, especially among people from different ethnic backgrounds.
