Study Summary

Using an observational case-control cohort design, the investigator aims to define the mechanisms underlying microbiome regulation of metabolism in adolescence before and after medically indicated therapies for obesity. The investigator's overarching hypothesis is that gut bacteria control host weight, insulin sensitivity, and response to weight-loss treatments by modifying host metabolism.

Primary Outcome

We will measure weight (in kilograms) and height (in cm) for all subjects at baseline and at 6 months (12 months for the surgery group). The between-group difference in Body Mass Index change will be reported.
