Study population text

The study population consists of adult patients with obesity managed within established bariatric and metabolic care pathways at participating referral centers. Participants are selected from individuals who initiate tirzepatide therapy as part of routine clinical practice, either for medical optimization prior to planned bariatric surgery or for the management of clinically significant weight regain following prior sleeve gastrectomy. All participants receive standard multidisciplinary care, including medical, nutritional, and metabolic evaluation, and are followed longitudinally through scheduled outpatient visits. The study population reflects a real-world clinical setting and includes patients with a broad range of obesity-related metabolic profiles, representative of routine bariatric practice.

Inclusion criteria

nclusion Criteria

Adult patients aged 18 years or older.
Diagnosis of obesity, defined according to standard clinical criteria, managed within a bariatric and metabolic care pathway.
Initiation of tirzepatide therapy at a starting dose of 5 mg as part of routine clinical practice.
Allocation to one of the following clinical cohorts:
Patients with prior sleeve gastrectomy and clinically significant weight regain, defined as a ≥25% increase in body weight relative to the postoperative nadir weight, with a minimum interval of 36 months from surgery; or
Patients with obesity undergoing preoperative medical optimization prior to planned bariatric surgery.
Availability of complete baseline clinical and anthropometric data at treatment initiation.
Planned clinical follow-up for at least 6 months after initiation of tirzepatide therapy.
Ability to provide written informed consent for the use of clinical data for research purposes, according to local regulations.

Exclusion criteria

Age younger than 18 years.
Prior bariatric procedures other than sleeve gastrectomy (for the weight regain cohort).
Current or previous treatment with tirzepatide before study enrollment.
Use of other anti-obesity pharmacological agents during the observation period.
Contraindications to tirzepatide therapy according to the approved product label.
Pregnancy or breastfeeding at the time of treatment initiation or during follow-up.
Presence of severe medical, psychiatric, or cognitive conditions that, in the investigator's judgment, could interfere with adherence to treatment or follow-up assessments.
Incomplete baseline data or anticipated inability to complete the planned 6-month follow-up.
