Introduction: Obesity and smoking are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, reducedquality life andprematuremortality. The relationship between body weight changes in patients who underwent bariatric surgery is unclear.Objective: We studiedpost-bariatric without any current medical follow-up compared smokers andnon-smokers regard to loss regain. Methodology: Ninety-four post-Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (n=80) or Sleeve gastrectomy (n=14), aged 42±9 years, mass index...
