Official title
Oculometric Assessment of Dynamic Visual Processing in Patients With Obesity and the Impact of Bariatric Surgery
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Obesity is a condition of chronic low-grade inflammation, thought to be secondary to adipose tissue secretion of cytokines including interleukin 6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF- α) which effect multiple pathways and lead to an increase in C-reactive protein (CRP), a sensitive marker of systemic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is thought to be a major risk factor for the development of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Inflammatory cytokines have also been shown to directly and indirectly interact with the central nervous system influencing behavior and neural activity. Obesity is an independent risk factor for reduced cognitive function including poor attention, executive function and memory. Demonstrating improvement in dynamic visual processing following bariatric surgery could expand our understanding of the impact of obesity on central nervous system (CNS) function.
