What this study is about

The aim of this study was to identify and quantify microplastics in the stomach, liver, feces, and blood of obese patients to be treated with bariatric surgery by using a variety of advanced analytical techniques to explore the association between obesity and visceral microplastics, and to investigate the effects of microplastics on the visceral microbiota and metabolic profiles of obese patients by combining the macro-genomic and metabolomics approaches.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
