About this study

The 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. The investigators want to see if this hormone ratio can help identify who will benefit most from the surgery. If the investigators 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.

Read the detailed description

The subject of the research is to investigate whether preoperative adiponectin-leptin ratios are predictive of weight loss in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy for morbid obesity. If the study finds the adiponectin-leptin ratio to be a significant predictor of weight loss, individuals with a low preoperative ratio, which are expected to lose less weight following surgery, can be redirected to more suitable treatment options other than sleeve gastrectomy. This will allow patients less likely to benefit from surgery to be guided toward conservative approaches.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Morbid Obesity Requiring Bariatric Surgery, run by Sercan YUKSEL, MD at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 7 May 2026. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Change in body mass index at 8 months (time frame: 8 months after surgery). 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 7 May 2026.
