Article Synopsis
- Renal dysfunction is a complication of obesity and can improve after metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS), but factors like body composition need more research, especially in males and females.
- A study of 196 patients showed that after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, men improved their kidney function based on weight loss, while women’s improvement was more related to visceral fat levels.
- The findings suggest that visceral adipose tissue significantly affects kidney function in women, indicating that body composition plays a key role in understanding renal health after weight loss surgery.
