While it would be correct to say that most available studies of various bariatric procedures assess a relatively short interval due to the fact that the procedures have become common only in recent years (i.e., many studies assess weight loss at 1 year post-operatively), I have seen no systematic evidence to support what you have written. If you believe what you have written to be the case, then I would appreciate if you could post references from indexed scientific journals to support your contention, as just saying it doesn't make it so.
