Physiological Responses to Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: Focusing on Ghrelin

NCT04055025 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Our hypothesis is that decreased concentration of ghrelin after LSG is important for the decreased appetite and food intake postoperatively. We therefore expect infusion of ghrelin will increase an ad libitum food intake after LSG. We also expect that a decreased postprandial concentration of ghrelin after LSG play a role for increased insulin secretion and decreased postprandial plasma glucose concentrations after surgery.
