Patients with obesity-related comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease were included. Patients with a history of bariatric surgery and those with clinical manifestations of gastroparesis, portal hypertension, liver cirrhosis, and coagulopathies were excluded. Primary study outcomes were technical feasibility and safety, and secondary study outcomes were the percentage of total weight loss, excess weight loss, and the change in gastroparesis clinical symptom index at 1\u00a0month after surgery.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>No serious complications occurred during the endoscopy or immediately after that. All patients experienced epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting for the first 3\u00a0days, with one patient developing mild hematemesis on the second day that stopped spontaneously and revealed no abnormalities on endoscopy. At 1\u00a0month after EBL, the mean percent excess weight loss and total weight loss were 22.3%\u2009\u00b1\u20099.9% and 7.8%\u2009\u00b1\u20092.5%, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>EBL is an effective and safe intervention for obesity management.
