Summary

An original cohort of 43 patients were recruited for analysis of anthropometrics, metabolic profile, skeletal muscle biopsy, echocardiogram at baseline, 3 months and 9 months post bariatric surgery. While all 43 patients reportedly completed 3 and 9 month evaluations, only 15 patients completed 24 month evaluations due to 28 patients unwilling to return.

The overarching purpose appears to have been not only evaluation of weightloss, but normalization of metabolic profile over time.
