NCT05307133

Brief Summary

Morbid obesity has become a common condition and there is no effective drug that is able to induce a sustained weight loss. Currently bariatric surgery remains the only effective means that is able to lead to long term sustained weight loss. Oxytocin is a hormone secreted by the hypophysis that regulates negatively the adipogenesis and positively the osteogenesis. Oxytocin also regulates appetite and its role in weight loss in humans has not been investigated so far. The aim of the present study is to elucidate whether plasma levels of oxytocin and sleeve gastrectomy induced weight loss are correlated in pre-menopausal morbidly obese women.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • plasma leves of oxytocin

    Correlation between plasma leves of oxytocin (pcgr/ml) and weight loss (BMI Kg/m2) 6 months after sleeve gastrectomy

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • sleeve gastrectomy

    6 months

Study Arms (1)

Pre menopausal women undergoing sleeve gastreexctomy for morbid obesity

OTHER

After the indication for sleeve gastrectomy has been retained by the multidisciplinary committee eligible patients will be contacted and offered to participate in the BARIAXYTOCINE study. At the time of the first outpatient visit (V1), body densitometry and blood sample for estradiol, leptin and oxytocin will be done. Patients will undergo surgery within one month and 6 months after surgery they will undergo the same work-up (V2).

Other: Sleeve Gastreextomy

Interventions

The aim of the present study is to elucidate whether serum levels of oxytocin and sleeve gastrectomy induced weight loss are correlated in pre-menopausal morbidly obese women.
