The By-Band-Sleeve trial, the UK’s largest study of bariatric surgery, has confirmed that gastric bypass is the most clinically and cost-effective option for people with severe obesity. Findings were showcased at Sense About Science’s Evidence Week in Parliament, where researchers met MPs to discuss evidence-based solutions for major health challenges.
Representing the NIHR Bristol Biomedical Research Centre were Professors Jane Blazeby and Barnaby Reeves, along with Anni King.
The team also produced a policy brief and a video overview to support informed decision-making on future NHS guidelines.
