Table 8 Equation for prediction of weight loss in 6 years after bariatric surgery (n = 33)

From: The fatty acid profile of adipose tissue as a predictor of the ponderal and inflammatory response in adult women six years after bariatric surgery

% WL 6 years = − 67.7 + Weight x (− 0.441) + HC × 0.812 + LM% × 0.785

  1. WL weight loss, HC hip circumference, LM% lean body mass percentage. The model above explains 25.63% of the variations occurred in the percentage of weight loss in 6 years after bariatric surgery (r2 = 0.2563; p = 0.0088)
