Read the detailed description

To study the glycemic patterns of patients undergoing bariatric surgery and what are the risk factors capable of predicting episodes of unnoticed hypoglycemia and high glycemic variability, evaluating patients who underwent reduction gastroplasty with Roux-en-Y reconstruction (GRYR) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Methods: Patients of both sexes, aged 18-60 years, submitted to GRYR and SG, for at least one year, under medical follow-up at the Multiuser Clinical Research Center (CePeM). Patients using hypoglycemic drugs (biguanides, sulfonylureas, glinides, acarbose, GLP-1 analogues, SGLT-2 inhibitors, DPP-IV inhibitors and insulin) and hyperglycemic drugs (corticosteroids, high-dose thiazide diuretics, beta-blockers, diazoxide and octreotide), very restrictive diets (intermittent fasting or ketogenic diet), pregnant women, kidney, heart and/or liver failure, history of neurological disorder, visual or hearing impairment, being treated for alcohol or drug abuse, severe psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder), vitamin B12 deficiency, iron deficiency anemia, patients with neurodegenerative diseases of the brain or retina or cerebrovascular diseases and those who do not agree to sign the informed consent form. Eligible patients will undergo a medical consultation, which will consist of anamnesis and physical examination and will wear a flash glucose monitor, model Freestyle Libre by Abbott, which should be used for a period of 7 to 14 days. They will complete the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire R21 (TFEQ-R21), International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Gold Questionnaire, Edinburgh Hypoglycemia Symptom Scale (EHSS), Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Trail Making Test (TMT) and Stroop Test. Will be evaluated as possible predictive factors the time elapsed from surgery, surgical technique, excess weight loss, rate of weight regain, previous diabetes mellitus, age, sex, resting heart rate, history of cholecystectomy, laboratory values of glycated hemoglobin, fasting glycemia, lipidogram and renal, thyroid and hepatic functions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bariatric Surgery, run by Rio de Janeiro State University at 1 site in Brazil.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Apr 2024. 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 Brazil. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

High glucose variability (time frame: 14 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Apr 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
