Role of GLP1-RA in Optimizing Weight Loss Post-Bariatric Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Bariatric surgery is a widely used intervention for significant weight loss, yet some patients face challenges with insufficient weight loss or weight regain post-surgery. To address this issue, adjunctive treatments like glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) are being explored for their potential to enhance weight loss outcomes. This meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of GLP1-RAs in improving weight loss after bariatric surgery compared to a placebo.
