ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how different amounts of carbohydrates in the diet after gastric bypass surgery can affect weight loss and the risk of serious health issues, such as ketoacidosis (a harmful condition caused by high levels of ketones in the body) and liver failure in patients with a liver condition known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The researchers believe that reducing carbohydrates might help some patients lose weight more effectively, but they also want to understand if it could lead to complications.

To participate in this study, you should be an adult with obesity (a body mass index, or BMI, between 30 and 50) and have NASH. You cannot be actively involved in sports, have diabetes, or cirrhosis (a severe liver condition). If you join the trial, you will be monitored for up to a year to see how different carbohydrate levels in your diet impact your weight loss and health. This trial is currently looking for participants, and all genders are welcome.
