Weight loss in patients with severe obesity after bariatric surgery - the poten...
Rodrigues, Joana; Magalhães, Vânia; Santos, Maria Paula; Reis, Cátia; Pichel, Fernando; Soares, Paulo; Santos, Jorge; Vilela, SofiaBackground Despite the potential effectiveness of bariatric surgery in promoting weight loss, a considerable proportion of patients still face the challenge of achieving optimal post-surgery outcomes. The timing of eating, in addition to the content of what is eaten, as well as chronotype and social jetlag (a marker of circadian misalignment), have been implicated in weight regulation. However, the current unde...

We used data from 117 population-based studies and quantified, in different world regions, the prevalence of diagnosed diabetes, and whether those who were previously undiagnosed and detected as having diabetes in survey screening, had elevated FPG,...
