Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Five-year outcome of laparoscopic gastric sleeve

5-year outcome in terms of weight loss, calculated in mean excess weight lost (%EWL).

Time frame
5-year follow-up

Secondary outcomes

1

Five-year outcome of laparoscopic gastric sleeve

5-year outcome of resolution of obesity-related comorbidities (type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, dyslipidemia). Prevalence of comorbidities are presented in percentages. McNemar´s test is employed to analyse significance of resolution of comorbidities.

Time frame
5-year follow-up
2

Five-year outcome of laparoscopic gastric sleeve

5-year risk for cumulative nutritional deficiencies. According to blood analysis results and patient provided information about taking supplementations (eg vitamine B12 or iron), prevalence of nutritional deficiencies are calculated in percetanges. Backward stepwise logistic regression is used to evaluate the risk factors for nutrition.

Time frame
5-year follow-up
