Title: Weight loss, loss-to-follow-up and adverse events 5 years after Roux-en-y-gastric bypass in young (18-25 y) versus older (≥26 y) adults: a Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry study
Abstract: Young adulthood (18-25 y) is a vulnerable period for weight gain, and young adults with obesity display poor weight loss and high attrition compared to older adults (≥26 y) in behavioral studies. Roux-en-y-gastric bypass (RYGB) provides efficient weight loss for older adults, but effects in young adults are unclear.
