| Description: | The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of rapid weight loss on static balance and functional mobility among excessively obese patients undergoing Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding (LAGB) surgery. Subjects (8 females; BMI >35 kg/m2) underwent baseline measurements before LAGB surgery, followed by subsequent evaluations at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks during the follow-up appointments. During each evaluation, various assessments were conducted, including measurements of anthropometry such as body weight, height, hip and waist circumference, as well as functional tests for static balance, 10-meter walk, and timed get-up-and-go. There were statistically significant changes in weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, abdominal circumference, waist-hip ratio, static sway eyes open, timed up-and-go, 10-meter walk, and steps in 10-meter walk test values (p |
