Implication

No clinical results available; leaves open all questions on post-bypass weight loss predictors.

Structured PICO

P
Population
3,215 adult patients with severe obesity undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), 80% female, mean preoperative BMI 49.4 kg/m2, recruited from a large comprehensive rural medical center.
I
Intervention
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB)
O
Outcome
Percent total body weight loss (% TBWL) through 5 years after surgerysurrogate

Weight loss trajectories after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass are not uniform, highlighting the need to identify individual-level characteristics that predict suboptimal long-term weight loss.
