Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess afamin levels following weight loss in obese patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and to explore its relationship with various metabolic markers such as TSH, cholesterol, and insulin levels.
- - Blood samples were collected from 43 patients before and six months after surgery to compare changes in body mass index (BMI) and other metabolic indicators.
- - Results showed a decrease in afamin levels post-surgery that was not statistically significant, but there were significant decreases in BMI, cholesterol, and insulin levels, suggesting afamin could serve as a marker for metabolic syndrome related to obesity.
