Multicenter Prospective Study Collaboration Recruitment: External Validation of a Risk Prediction Model for Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) after Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (MBS)
This is an International Obesity Society (IOS) endorsed research project recruiting collaboration centers for external validation of a risk prediction model for Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) after Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (MBS).
Background:
The incidence of IDA after MBS is relatively high
A high - performance nomogram - based prediction model has been developed
Multicenter external validation is urgently needed
Study Design:
Multicenter, prospective study
Participants: Patients undergoing MBS
Outcome: Occurrence of IDA within 1 year after MBS
Collaboration Requirements:
Centers performing MBS
Capability for 1-year postoperative follow-up
Willingness to assist with data collection (using an established clinical scoring system)
Benefits of Collaboration:
Authorship on publications
Shared research outcomes
Registration:
