Metabolism and Digestion After Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how your body processes food and handles digestion after sleeve gastrectomy (a weight-loss surgery). Researchers will measure your metabolism, intestinal health, and stomach symptoms over time to understand how the surgery affects your body.
