Parameters for pre- and postsurgery weight loss profiles, duration of weight loss, and late-onset weight regain (means ± sem)

Reference I251L V103I P value (one way ANOVA)
Weight at initial visit (top plateau) (%)a 108 ± 0.1 109 ± 0.7 107 ± 0.7 0.2
Weight at nadir (bottom plateau) (%)a 72 ± 0.1 65 ± 0.5c 73 ± 0.6 <0.0001
Total weight loss (% kilograms at surgery) 36 44 34
Months to weight nadira 10 13 9
Slope from weight nadir (9–13 to 36 months)b 0.018 −0.072 0.158 0.4

Differences were determined using one-way ANOVA.

a

Parametes are from Hill regression global-fitting parameters.

b

Parametes are from linear fit.

c

Significance levels after Bonferroni's multiple comparisons post hoc, P < 0.0001 vs. reference.
