Special Issue on Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric Surgery includes a variety of procedures performed on people who have obesity. Reducing the size of the stomach is the common way to achieve the goal. Long-term studies show the procedures cause significant long-term loss of weight, recovery from diabetes, improvement in cardiovascular risk factors and a reduction in mortality. However, the disadvantages or even adverse effects have been proven by many studies. As larger numbers of people suffer from obesity and diabetes, further research on safe an effective management is of great importance and value.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring bariatric surgery. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

Bariatric surgery

Gastric bypass surgery

Major treatment

Liposuction and lipolysis

Complications

Adverse effects

Obesity and diabetes
