Observational Study.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07381140). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Azienda Ospedaliera Specializzata in Gastroenterologia Saverio de Bellis. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Study type: OBSERVATIONAL. Enrollment: 100 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Obese Patients, Obese Patients With Bariatric Surgery, Gut Microbiota, Healthy Participants. Primary outcome measures: Long-Term Changes in Gut Microbiota After Bariatric Surgery , from enrollment up to 12 months of follow-up. Brief summary: The goal of this observational study is to learn how bariatric surgery affects gut bacteria and gut-related metabolic products over time in adults with obesity. The study includes adults aged 18 to 65 years who are undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, as well as adults with obesity treated with diet alone and healthy normal-weight adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: How does bariatric surgery change the composition and diversity of gut bacteria over time? How are these changes related to weight loss and improvement of obesity-related health conditions? Researchers will compare people undergoing bariatric surgery with people with obesity treated with diet alone and with healthy normal-weight individuals to see if surgery leads to specific changes in gut bacteria and stool metabolites that are linked to better clinical outcomes. Participants will: Provide stool samples at scheduled time points over 12 months Provide blood samples and undergo routine clinical assessments Take part in follow-up visits to monitor weight, metabolic health, and gastrointestinal symptoms
