Ethics declarations

Ethical Approval

The present study did not require institutional review board oversight because the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) database is de-identified, and freely accessible to MBSAQIP participant centers. It does not identify hospitals, health care providers, or patients.

Patient Consent

The MBSAQIP database lacks specific patient identifiers. Hence, patient consent was not required.

Conflict of Interest

The authors declare no competing interests.
