Intragastric Balloon Treatment Enhances Weight Maintenance Adjunct to Low‐Energy Diet and Group‐Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 8, Page 7300-7311, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Low‐energy diet (LED) plus cognitive‐behavioural therapy (CBT) produces substantial short‐term weight loss in obesity, but long‐term maintenance remains difficult. We evaluated whether adding intragastric balloon (IGB) treatment to group‐based CBT improves weight maintenance after initial weight loss using LED.
