Several demographic factors including comorbidities, insurance status, and employment may significantly affect weight loss patterns following LSG. Further studies are needed to evaluate whether demographic differences impact long term weight loss. Differences in outcomes based on patient demographics may be beneficial in the planning of the allocation of healthcare resources.
