Abu Dhabi Diabetes and Obesity Study -2 Bariatric (ADOS-2B)
Study on outcomes on bariatric surgery, particularly in terms of metabolic parameters in the UAE is scant. Also Genetic data from this population is limited and hence a study on genetic determinants of response to bariatric surgery is highly warranted. This study is expected to provide a better understanding of the causes of severe obesity in the UAE population and help us to evaluate the efficacy of Bariatric surgery in patients with genetic forms of obesity. The information generated will allow us to better advise patients regarding the risks and benefits of Bariatric Surgery as a treatment. Objective To investigate the metabolic outcomes of bariatric surgery, to study the prevalence of monogenic forms of obesity among a cohort of patients with morbid obesity who underwent bariatric surgery and to compare the outcomes of Bariatric surgery in patients with and without underlying genetic condition.
