Study how gut hormones change after weight-loss surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how gut hormones and blood sugar control change after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. It may help researchers understand what supports healthier glucose levels after bariatric surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re between 18 and 70 years old.
- You have a diagnosed problem with blood sugar or type 2 diabetes, and your diabetes is fairly controlled (HbA1c 9.0% or less).
- You’re considered eligible for weight-loss (bariatric) surgery through the NHS, and you have not had bariatric surgery before.
- You’re not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you can use reliable contraception during the study and for one month after.
- You don’t smoke.
- You can do brain MRI scans (fMRI), and you don’t have metal/implants or severe claustrophobia that would prevent MRI.

This study looks at which people with type 2 diabetes (or prediabetes) are most likely to benefit from bariatric surgery. It compares people who are planning surgery with healthy volunteers to better understand how body changes relate to blood sugar.
This study tests whether bariatric (weight-loss) surgery can improve blood sugar control in people with obesity and either prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. You may be enrolled in one of these glucose groups, and the researchers will monitor changes before and after surgery.
This study measures how people eat and how their gut hormones change after weight loss surgery. It compares different groups to understand differences between men and women.
This study tests whether weight-loss surgery improves how your body uses insulin and energy. It compares insulin sensitivity and related measurements before and after surgery to understand who benefits.
This study tests whether two weight-loss operations (sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) can improve type 2 diabetes. It may help people with higher body weight and diabetes control, but it also requires meeting safety and health criteria.
This study looks at how inflammation affects heart disease and diabetes. It may help find new ways to prevent or treat these conditions.
