Evaluation of the Effects of Postsleeve Gastrectomy Exercise on Long-Term Glucose Profile and Weight Loss Among Iranian Females: A Prospective Cohort Study From 2016 to 2020.

Background

Weight regain after surgery is linked to an increased risk of relapse for obesity-related comorbidities, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
