Differential Metabolomic Signatures in Patients with Weight Regain and Sustained Weight Loss After Gastric Bypass Surgery: A Pilot Study

While Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is one of the most effective and durable treatment options for obesity and its comorbidities, it is complicated by long-term weight regain in over 20% of patients. We sought to determine the metabolite signatures of serum samples of patients with weight regain (RYGB-WR) after RYGB and features distinguishing these patients from patients with sustained weight loss (RYGB-SWL). We prospectively analyzed serum...
