Changes in Soluble TWEAK Concentrations, but Not Those in Amyloid-β(1–40), Are Associated with a Decrease in Carotid Intima-Media Thickness after Bariatric Surgery in Obese Women

Background/Aim: Soluble tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (sTWEAK) and amyloid-β(1–40) (Aβ40) emerged as markers of cardiovascular risk because of their actions in the endothelium and their role in atherosclerotic progression.
