Inflammatory responses to dietary and surgical weight loss in male and female mice

ConclusionsThese studies demonstrate that regardless of sex, it is critical to assess an individuals ’ history of obesity rather than just rely on current weight status in medical decision-making. There are long-lasting effects on tissue inflammation in both sexes especially with surgical weight loss. Dietary change is overall most effective to improve meta-inflammation in obese males on its own or in combination with surgical weight loss.
