Research Experience
Effects od exercise in Post-surgery bariatric surgery
Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de Sao Paulo (FMUSP)
São Paulo, Brasil
2016
- We lead large clinical trial towards understanding the effects of exercise on glucose metabolism, bone mass, and muscle mass and function of patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
- We found that exercise training is an effective strategy to sustain, or even enhance, the cardiometabolic effects of bariatric surgery, and prevent muscle and bone detrimental effects that accompany the surgical procedure.
