The sequence and timing of semaglutide and metabolic and bariatric surgery affect postoperative outcomes, challenging the concept that any combination of medicine and surgery has additive effectiveness. https://t.co/57IzISszxb
Had a wonderful time presenting at & attending #MassChapterACS Annual Meeting yesterday! Thoroughly enjoyed the panel discussion by @JenniferLaFemi1
Drs. Ford, DiSiena, @Lilian_ChenMD on resident evaluation+mentorship! & ofcourse connecting w mentors & colleagues @BWHSurgMetab!
Another Clinical Congress in the books! #ACS2024 Had a fantastic time presenting our work @BWHSurgMetab on neo adjuvant Semaglutide and Bariatric Surgery and catching up with mentors and friends from @BIDMCSurgery and @bwhgisurgery !
Check out our new paper published @cellhostmicrobe! Lithocholic acid (LCA) is a metabolic toxin decreased by bariatric surgery. Taurodeoxycholic acid, which is increased by surgery, inhibits LCA production by microbes and has metabolic benefits.
