Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Several patients encompass a scarce weight loss after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). As such event is not related to surgical complications, finding markers able to identify "well responders" and to predict weight loss outcome is clinically relevant. Ghrelin regulates appetite and energy balance. Common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in its encoding genes have been associated with body...
