Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Amy Sanghavi Shah"
- Amy Sanghavi Shah's research primarily focuses on adolescent health, specifically exploring the outcomes of obesity interventions, such as vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), and the implementation of comprehensive care models for youth-onset type 2 diabetes.
- In her studies, Shah identifies key demographic and metabolic factors that differentiate adolescents achieving above-average weight loss from those with below-average weight loss post-VSG, while also assessing metabolic health improvements in both groups.
- Additionally, Shah investigates cardiovascular health through innovative assays for low-density lipoprotein binding in relation to atherosclerosis, and she explores the genetic associations of lipoprotein levels with cardiovascular traits across different ancestries, illustrating a multidisciplinary approach to addressing youth health challenges.
