The College of Dentistry at the University of Basra organized a scientific lecture entitled
The Effect of Sleeve Gastrectomy on some Gut Hormones and Liver Functions
In cooperation with the Continuing Education Unit at the College.
The lecture aims to explain the physiological and metabolic changes of the liver after the sleeve gastrectomy operation, as well as the changes in the level of intestinal hormones such as ghrelin and glucagon like peptide.
The lecture, which was given by the lecturer Dr. Rafida Majeed Abdul Hussein, included the results of a practical study in which some physiological changes that occur in patients suffering from obesity after surgery were studied with regard to liver functions and changes in hormone levels.
