Scientists track mystery hormone after stomach surgery
NCT ID NCT07335549
Summary
This study aimed to learn more about obesity by measuring a hormone called isthmin. Researchers checked isthmin levels in the blood of 40 adults with severe obesity before and after they had a common weight-loss surgery (laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy). The goal was to see if the surgery changed this hormone, which is thought to be involved in appetite and metabolism.
