The Effect of Adiponectin-Leptin Ratio on Weight Loss in Patients Undergoing Sleeve Gastrectomy Due to Morbid Obesity

Sponsor: Sercan YUKSEL, MD

Summary

Our study aims to find out if a specific blood test, measuring the balance between two hormones (adiponectin and leptin), can predict how much weight a person might lose after sleeve gastrectomy, a surgery for obesity. We want to see if this hormone ratio can help identify who will benefit most from the surgery. If we find that people with a low hormone ratio are less likely to lose weight after surgery, doctors can guide them toward other weight-loss options, like lifestyle changes or different treatments, instead of surgery. This way, patients can get the care that's best for them.
