Study factors that predict long-term weight loss success
This study looks for traits (like health measurements or medical factors) that can help predict who will successfully lose weight and keep it off. It may help researchers personalize weight-loss plans in the future.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 15–75 - NCT01055054Enrolling by invitation
Bariatric surgery registry for people with severe weight gain
