Özet

Objective and Aim: Most studies have detected impairment of gallbladder motility among obese compared with nonobese people. However, the relationship between gallbladder motility and weight loss is not well defined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between percent of weight loss and gallbladder motility during weight-reducing programs in obese women.
