SUBJECTS: A total of 49 morbid obese female patients with a body mass index (BMI) above 40 kg/m2 were investigated during a study period of 6 months. Of these, 24 patients received a gastric banding (GB) and lost a minimum of 20 kg in 1 y (GB group) and 25 patients maintained their weight (obese group). In sum, 13 normal weight subjects (BMI |
