This study looks at how eating behavior and appetite hormones change after a type of weight loss surgery called sleeve gastrectomy. It may help understand how the surgery affects hunger and nutrition.
This trial studies a specific type of metabolic (weight-related) surgery for people whose sleeve gastrectomy did not lead to enough weight loss or has caused significant weight regain. It may help improve long-term weight and related health problems.
This study looks at how digestion works after weight-loss surgery. Volunteers may be people with obesity or those who had gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy at least a year ago. The goal is to learn more about gut function after surgery.
This study looks at how sleeve gastrectomy surgery affects bone and muscle health in men and women at different life stages (before and after menopause). It compares people having the surgery with those who qualify but don't have it.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to convert a sleeve gastrectomy into a different type of weight-loss surgery (SASI) in people who have ongoing gastroesophageal reflux or haven't lost enough weight. The goal is to see if this endoscopic procedure can improve reflux and help with weight loss without the need for a traditional surgery.
This study is creating a system to predict how well people do after weight-loss surgery for severe obesity. It focuses on patients getting either a sleeve gastrectomy or a gastric bypass and aims to improve recovery and long-term results.
