Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare maternal and offspring health outcomes after different types of prepregnancy weight loss surgeries (bariatric surgery) against a control group that did not have surgery.
- - Conducted from January 2020 to March 2023, the research involved analyzing the growth trajectories of children born to mothers who had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy versus those without surgery, focusing on weight, length, and BMI.
- - Results showed similar gestational weight gain between groups, but increased pregnancy complications for MBS participants; offspring from MBS surgeries had lower birth weights but higher weight gains at 24 months, with notable differences in outcomes based on the type of surgery and child sex. *
