About

This is a prospective, single-center, randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled clinical trial to compare the changes in brain function after intragastric balloon and sleeve gastrectomy.

Full description

To compare the changes in brain function in obese patients after intragastric balloon and sleeve gastrectomy. This clinical trial is a prospective, single-center, randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled study. One group uses intragastric balloon system developed by Changzhou Zhishan Medical Technology Co., Ltd, and the other groups underwent sleeve gastric surgery. Before patients are enrolled in this clinical study, the researchers will do a detailed screening of the subjects based on the inclusion criteria and the exclusion criteria to determine if the patients are appropriate for the clinical study. Patients who meet the conditions of the study will be required to sign an informed consent form. They are divided into different groups according to their own wishes. To evaluate the primary outcome measures and secondary outcome measures and to observe the changes in brain function. Finally, investigators used functional MRI, questionnaire, and laboratory examination to evaluate the weight loss effect and appetite change through the comparison of the data obtained from the different groups during the treatment.
