Compare two weight-loss surgeries for type 2 diabetes control
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This Phase 3 trial compares sleeve gastrectomy versus a different bypass-style operation to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It may help some people lower blood sugar and diabetes medication needs, but you must meet specific safety and health criteria.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
