Bariatric Surgery Vs GLP-1 Agonists in Obesity Treatment

JAMA Network

About The Study: The findings of this study suggest that metabolic bariatric surgery was associated with more weight loss at lower ongoing costs compared with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in class II and III obesity. Further study is needed to determine if metabolic bariatric surgery should still be considered the last resort in treating obesity.
