This cohort study examined changes in weight and eating behaviors following early reinitiation of postoperative obesity pharmacotherapy in pediatric patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
Specific outcome data (e.g., BMI change, weight loss percentages) are not available in the published abstract or publisher page text provided.
Full text is not publicly available (PMC embargo until 2027-07-22), so detailed methodology, sample size, comparator groups, and outcome data cannot be assessed. Results rely on a retrospective cohort design, which limits causal inference.
Early reinitiation of anti-obesity medications after sleeve gastrectomy in youth is an active area of study; clinicians managing adolescent bariatric patients should monitor emerging evidence on postoperative pharmacotherapy to optimize weight outcomes.
