Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Find out how bariatric endoscopy will influence the clinical course of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study will test and investigate the impact of bariatric endoscopy (various types of intragastric balloons, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty, aspiration therapy) on components of the metabolic syndrome in obese patients, especially on influencing non-alcoholic steatosis and steatohepatitis and signs of liver fibrotization and weight reduction. The method consists of performing a mini-invasive endoscopic procedure and, as a result, reduced food intake.
