Study of fat inflammation in people after gastric bypass
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at “fat inflammation” and diabetes in people who had gastric bypass surgery. It may help doctors understand why some people develop diabetes and how weight-related body changes affect health.

This study looks at how inflammation affects heart disease and diabetes. It may help find new ways to prevent or treat these conditions.
This study looks at how your body’s fat under the skin and inside the abdomen may affect “insulin resistance,” a common problem linked with blood sugar control. It’s for people who are scheduled for bariatric (weight-loss) surgery, to learn more before and after surgery.
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.
This study looks at how weight-loss surgery affects heart health by checking markers of inflammation in the blood and how blood vessels work. It may help understand why surgery lowers heart risk for people with obesity.
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 looks at why some people lose more weight and improve their health more than others after bariatric surgery. It also has a subgroup that specifically studies people who are insulin resistant (a sign of prediabetes) to see how surgery affects their metabolism.
