NCT03868592
Brief Summary:
It is not known how much improvement in insulin regulated lipolysis (the breakdown of triglycerides) occurs following substantial, sustained weight loss. Researchers will test the effects of inflammation and lipolysis regulation in people before and after bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) to answer these questions.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the adipose inflammatory cell and cytokine content in Class III obesity is related to lipolysis insulin resistance and, if so, whether sustained, substantial weight loss one year following bariatric surgery reduces inflammation in parallel with improved insulin regulation of lipolysis
