Trial summary

Bariatric surgery is currently considered the most effective treatment for achieving significant, sustained weight loss and reducing comorbidities associated with obesity. Every year in France, more than 55,000 undergo this surgery and nearly 450 000 French have a history of surgery for obesity. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of Food Preferences After Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery is currently considered the most effective treatment for achieving significant, sustained weight loss and reducing comorbidities associated with obesity. Every year in France, more than 55,000 undergo this surgery and nearly 450 000 French have a history of surgery for obesity. The mechanisms of action of bariatric surgery are multiple and are not limited to caloric restriction. Neuro-hormonal effects, changes in the anatomy of the digestive tract, vagal changes or bile circulation have been identified as contributing factors to weight loss and postoperative improvement of comorbidities. In addition, post-operative changes in dietary preferences have also been described, which could contribute to initial weight loss and its maintenance over time (aversion to lipid and sugar products).

The counterpart of the rapid and durable efficacy of bariatric surgery is the exposure of patients to a significant risk of protein-energy malnutrition. It should be noted that the protein intake, very limited in the first months after surgery, remains well below the recommended intake after the first postoperative year. Spontaneous consumption of meat and vegetable protein is significantly reduced during the first postoperative month and up to one year after surgery. Apart from the limitation of gastric volume induced by surgery, clinical experience indicates that many patients turn away from protein consumption by aversion. A parallel was made between the significant drop in protein consumption during the first months and the initial loss of lean mass. Thus changes in dietary preferences induced by bariatric surgery could also contribute to postoperative nutritional risk (protein aversion).

At the same time, it is noted that olfactory and taste modifications have been reported in previous studies that could be associated with these changes in food preferences.

The hypotheses of the current study are that the type of surgery may affect dietary preferences differently after obesity surgery and that surgical failure may be associated with preferences for high fat, high sweet and low protein foods postoperatively for both types of surgery.

As far as the investigating team is aware, no study compares dietary preferences between sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass using this approach.

Being tested
Food preference questionnaire

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Food preference questionnaireOther

    This is an online questionnaire administrated once to the participants, to assess food preferences after bariatric surgery. The investigating team will also collect data on the type of surgery, anthropometry, nutrition, taste, smell, disgust and intolerance as well as sociodemographic data.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Food preferences

    Food preferences will be measured using liking score for different food groups.The outcome will be assessed in the period following the bariatric surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bariatric Surgery Candidate, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Food preferences (time frame: Day 0). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Dec 2019.
