Weight Loss Threshold and Inflection Points for Biochemical Remission of Male Obesity-Associated Secondary Hypogonadism After Sleeve Gastrectomy

These findings provide preliminary reference points that require prospective validation before being considered for clinical guidance and show consistency across age, preoperative BMI, and type 2 diabetes mellitus subgroups in this cohort.

Glucocorticoid receptor signaling protects human mature adipocytes from metabolic stress and is impaired in obesity.
