Weight loss is linked to improved metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors over ten years.
Data indicate that patients maintain significant improvements post-surgery, reducing risks over time.
Longitudinal analysis following bariatric surgery reveals sustained health benefits in metabolic functions and cardiovascular health over the decade, following 100 participants in the study., included in a follow-up study where changes were tracked over 10 years.
Abstract
Weight loss is associated with short-term amelioration and prevention of metabolic and cardiovascular risk, but whether these benefits persist over time is unknown.
