Type of change:
Updated content
Rationale for change
Uworld has a chart which includes teh noted indications for bariatric surgery. Theyre slightly different than the previous version of this card. I also confirmed this with Amboss in the article titled: Obesity & Metabolic syndrome
Here is a "statpearls" article:

Source: UWorld - Step 2 7553
Rejection reason
Bulk discard; see suggestion history on this note. This is a topic of discussion in maintainer Slack. Best solution would be to convert table in extra to compare most up-to-date guidelines to what is currently tested in UWorld imo
