FAHFA concentrations in morbidly obese individuals before and 6 months after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy compared to non-obese volunteers. Wilcoxon matched-pairs test was used to compare obese patient before and after surgery (Obese T1 and Obese T2) and Mann-Whitney test to compare obese patients with non-obese patients. Box plots describe the median and the 25th percentile and 75th percentile. n = 18 per group. Labeled medians without a common superscript letter differ, P < 0.05. t, total (sum of FAHFAs/PAHSAs measured); FAHFA, fatty acid ester of hydroxy fatty acid; OAHSA, oleic acid-hydroxy stearic acid; PAHPA, palmitic acid-hydroxy palmitic acid; PAHSA, palmitic acid-hydroxy stearic acid; SAHSA, stearic acid-hydroxy stearic acid.
