Abstract
A rise in bone turnover markers (BTM) after bariatric surgery predicts poor bone health years later. This study explored factors associated with BTM and changes in BTM after bariatric surgery. Inclusion criteria were subjects 18 to 65 years of age with morbid obesity undergoing bariatric surgery. All data were measured before and 6 and 12 months after surgery. The study included 104 subjects: women/men: 83/21; mean age 43.1 (SD 8.4) years; BMI: 38.8 kg/m2 (SD 3.8). Surgery with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) was performed in 84 (81%) and 20 (19%) subjects, respectively. From before to 6-12 months after surgery, procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptid (P1NP) increased by 45.6 µg/L (95% CI 41.5-50.0, p < 0.001), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) by 10 U/L (95% CI 7-14, p < 0.001). The increases were significantly larger after RYGB than after SG. The APOE- Ɛ3 allele was associated with low levels of BTM and high levels of leptin. There was an unfavourable increase in BTM after bariatric surgery. SG compared to RYGB and the presence of the APOE-Ɛ3 allele were associated with less unfavourable effects. The study emphasises the importance of optimal prophylactic interventions after bariatric surgery to prevent osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Morbid obesity is a complex chronic condition characterized by a body mass index of 40 kg/m2 or higher. The incidence of the condition is on the rise in developed countries, and bariatric surgery has been proposed as a potential solution to address this trend. Nonetheless, bariatric surgery may also result in adverse effects, including a reduction in bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle mass, as well as an increased risk of fractures. The present study aims to elucidate the effects of bariatric surgery and whole-body vibration (WBV) training on body composition, microbiota, physical fitness, quality of life, and cardiometabolic markers. METHODS Twenty-eight participants (14 females), aged 18 to 50 years, will undergo sleeve gastrectomy surgery. They will be randomly allocated into a control group or a WBV training group. The WBV group will train three times per week with increasing intensities and duration ranging from 30 to 45 min over the 4-month training period. Measurements of body composition (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography), physical fitness (muscular strength, agility, cardiorespiratory fitness, and balance), gait biomechanics, cardiometabolic markers, gut microbiota, quality of life, and physical activity levels will be collected at four different time points: (1) prior to the surgery, (2) 45 days post-surgery, (3) 6 months post-surgery, and (4) 18 months post-surgery. DISCUSSION Both groups are expected to experience improvements in most of the aforementioned variables. Nonetheless, we expect the WBV group to show larger improvements proving that the training is effective and safe. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinicaltrials.gov NCT05695599. Registered on January 25, 2023.

Abstract
Context Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has deleterious effects on bone mass, microarchitecture, and strength. Data are lacking on the skeletal effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG), now the most commonly performed bariatric surgical procedure. Objective We examined changes in bone turnover, areal and volumetric bone mineral density (aBMD, vBMD), and appendicular bone microarchitecture and estimated strength after SG. We compared the results to those previously reported after RYGB, hypothesizing lesser effects after SG than RYGB. Design Setting Participants Prospective observational cohort study of 54 adults with obesity undergoing SG at an academic center. Main Outcome Measures Skeletal characterization with biochemical markers of bone turnover, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), quantitative computed tomography (QCT), and high-resolution peripheral QCT (HR-pQCT) was performed preoperatively and 6- and 12-months postoperatively. Results Over 12 months, mean percentage weight loss was 28.8%. Bone turnover marker levels increased, and total hip aBMD decreased -8.0% (95% CI -9.1%, -6.7%, p<0.01). Spinal aBMD and vBMD declines were larger in postmenopausal women than men. Tibial and radial trabecular and cortical microstructure worsened, as did tibial estimated strength, particularly in postmenopausal women. When compared to data from a RYGB cohort with identical design and measurements, some SG biochemical, vBMD, and radial microstructural parameters were smaller, while other changes were not. Conclusions Bone mass, microstructure, and strength decrease after SG. Some skeletal parameters change less after SG than after RYGB, while for others, we find no evidence for smaller effects after SG. Postmenopausal women may be at highest risk of skeletal consequences after SG.

EClinicalMedicine 2024; 69:102462. [PMID: 38333369 PMCID: PMC10850131 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2024.102462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Revised: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Childhood obesity is a pressing health crisis of epidemic proportions. Bariatric surgery (BS) is an effective weight loss solution however its role in the paediatric population is contentious owing to the paucity of weight specific and generalised health outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of paediatric BS on bone health. Methods This prospectively registered systematic review (PROSPERO ID: CRD42023432035) was performed in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. We searched MEDLINE (1946-1928 September 2023), EMBASE (1947-1928 September 2023) via the Ovid platform, and the Cochrane Review Library to identify scientific publications reporting bone outcome measures in patients under the age of 18 years who underwent BS. Meta-analysis was undertaken on post-operative weight and bone parameters in paediatric patients following BS. Outcomes were reported as weighted or standardized mean difference with 95 percent confidence intervals. Subgroup analysis by intervention, quality scoring and risk of bias were assessed. Findings Twelve studies with 681 patients across 5 countries (mean age 17 ± 0.57 years) were included. The quality of included studies was rated as high and there was substantial between-study heterogeneity for most factors included in the meta-analysis (I2 from 0% to 99.1%). Patients underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB, n = 216), sleeve gastrectomy (SG, n = 257), gastric band (n = 184) or intragastric balloon placement (n = 24). BS was associated with significant weight reduction, body mass index (BMI) -12.7 kg/m2 (95% CI -14.5 to -10.9, p < 0.001), with RYGB being most effective, BMI -16.58 kg/m2 (95% CI -19.6 to -13.6, p < 0.001). Patients who underwent SG or RYGB had significantly lower lumbar bone mineral density, -0.96 g/cm2 (95% CI -0.1 to -0.03, p < 0.001), Z score, -1.132 (95% CI -1.8 to -0.45, p < 0.001) and subtotal body bone mineral density, -0.7 g/cm2 (95% CI -1.2 to -0.2, p < 0.001) following surgery. This was accompanied with higher markers of bone resorption, C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen 0.22 ng/ml (95% CI 0.12-0.32, p < 0.001) and osteocalcin, 10.83 ng/ml (95% CI 6.01-15.67, p < 0.001). There was a significant reduction in calcium levels following BS, -3.78 mg/dl (95% CI -6.1 to -1.5, p < 0.001) but no difference in 25-hydroxyvitamin D, phosphate, bone alkaline phosphatase, procollagen type 1 N propeptide or parathyroid hormone. Interpretation BS effectively reduces weight in paediatric patients, but RYGB and SG may have adverse effects on bone health in the medium term. It is crucial to monitor and support bone health through appropriate nutritional supplementation and judicious follow-up. Long-term data is needed to fully understand the clinical implications of these findings on bone outcomes. Funding Medical Research Council (MRC), United Kingdom.

Calcif Tissue Int 2024; 114:86-97. [PMID: 37999750 DOI: 10.1007/s00223-023-01150-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 Receptor agonists (GLP-1Ras) such as liraglutide and semaglutide have been recently approved as medications for chronic weight management in people living with obesity (PwO); GLP-1 may enhance bone metabolism and improve bone quality. However, the effects of GLP-1Ras on skeletal health remain to be determined and that's the purpose of this narrative review. Nevertheless, bone consequences of intentional weight loss interventions in PwO are well known: (i) significant weight loss induced by caloric restriction and bariatric surgery results in accelerated bone turnover and bone loss, and (ii) unlike caloric restriction interventions, PwO experience a substantial deterioration in bone microarchitecture and strength associated with an increased risk of fracture after bariatric surgery especially malabsorptive procedures. Liraglutide seems to have a positive effect on bone material properties despite significant weight loss in several rodent models. However, most of positive effects on bone mineral density and microarchitecture were observed at concentration much higher than approved for obesity care in humans. No data have been reported in preclinical models with semaglutide. The current evidence of the effects of GLP-1Ra on bone health in PwO is limited. Indeed, studies on the use of GLP-1Ra mostly included patients with diabetes who were administered a dose used in this condition, did not have adequate bone parameters as primary endpoints, and had short follow-up periods. Further studies are needed to investigate the bone impact of GLP-1Ra, dual- and triple-receptor agonists for GLP-1, glucose-dependent insulin releasing polypeptide (GIP), and glucagon in PwO.

Abstract
CONTEXT Vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) is an increasingly common tool to achieve weight loss and improve metabolic health in adolescents and young adults with obesity, although it may adversely affect bone health. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to evaluate the effect of VSG on bone health in youth. METHODS An observational 2-year study was conducted at a tertiary care center of 66 patients aged 13 to 24 years with moderate-to-severe obesity meeting criteria for VSG. The patients underwent VSG (n = 30) or nonsurgical (n = 36) management per the decision of patient and clinical team. Main outcome measures included dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT) measures of bone mineral density (BMD), geometry, and microarchitecture. RESULTS VSG patients achieved 25.3 ± 2.0% weight loss at 2 years (P < .001) while control subjects gained 4.0 ± 2.0% (P = .026). Total hip BMD declined 8.5 ± 1.0% following VSG compared with 0.1 ± 1.0% gain in controls (P < .001), with similar results at the femoral neck (P < .001). Total volumetric BMD (vBMD) decreased both at the distal radius and tibia following VSG (P < .001) driven primarily by trabecular vBMD loss (P < .001). Two-year changes in cortical vBMD did not differ between groups, though cortical porosity decreased following VSG both at the radius and tibia (P = .048 and P < .001). Cortical thickness increased in controls but not in VSG (P = .022 and P = .002 for between-group comparisons at the radius and tibia, respectively). Following VSG, estimated failure load decreased at the radius and did not demonstrate the physiologic increases at the tibia observed in controls. CONCLUSION VSG leads to progressive changes in bone health over 2 years, and may lead to increased skeletal fragility in adolescents and young adults.

Intestinal Calcium Absorption Decreases After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy Despite Optimization of Vitamin D Status. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2023; 108:351-360. [PMID: 36196648 PMCID: PMC10091486 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgac579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), now the most commonly performed bariatric operation, is a highly effective treatment for obesity. While Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is known to impair intestinal fractional calcium absorption (FCA) and negatively affect bone metabolism, LSG's effects on calcium homeostasis and bone health have not been well characterized. OBJECTIVE We determined the effect of LSG on FCA, while maintaining robust 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels and recommended calcium intake. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS Prospective pre-post observational cohort study of 35 women and men with severe obesity undergoing LSG. MAIN OUTCOMES FCA was measured preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively with a gold-standard dual stable isotope method. Other measures included calciotropic hormones, bone turnover markers, and bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and quantitative computed tomography. RESULTS Mean ± SD FCA decreased from 31.4 ± 15.4% preoperatively to 16.1 ± 12.3% postoperatively (P < 0.01), while median (interquartile range) 25OHD levels were 39 (32-46) ng/mL and 36 (30-46) ng/mL, respectively. Concurrently, median 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D level increased from 60 (50-82) pg/mL to 86 (72-107) pg/mL (P < 0.01), without significant changes in parathyroid hormone or 24-hour urinary calcium levels. Bone turnover marker levels increased substantially, and areal BMD decreased at the proximal femur. Those with lower postoperative FCA had greater areal BMD loss at the total hip (ρ = 0.45, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS FCA decreases after LSG, with a concurrent rise in bone turnover marker levels and decline in BMD, despite robust 25OHD levels and with recommended calcium intake. Decline in FCA could contribute to negative skeletal effects following LSG.

Bone marrow adipose tissue composition and glycemic improvements after gastric bypass surgery. Bone Rep 2022; 17:101596. [PMID: 35734226 PMCID: PMC9207612 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2022.101596] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Fracture risk is increased in type 2 diabetes, which may in part be due to altered bone marrow adiposity. Cross sectional studies have reported that people with type 2 diabetes have lower unsaturated BMAT lipid levels than people without diabetes, although there are limited data on longitudinal changes. We hypothesized that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), which dramatically improves glycemic status, would have differential effects on BMAT composition, with increases in the unsaturated lipid index in people with diabetes. Given reports that axial BMAT is responsive to metabolic stimuli while appendicular BMAT is stable, we hypothesized that BMAT changes would occur at the spine but not the tibia. We enrolled 30 obese women, stratified by diabetes status, and used magnetic resonance spectroscopy to measure BMAT at the spine in all participants, and the tibia in a subset (n = 19). At baseline, BMAT parameters were similar between those with and without diabetes, except tibial marrow fat content was lower in women with diabetes (97.4 % ± 1.0 % versus 98.2 % ± 0.4 %, p = 0.04). Six months after surgery, both groups experienced similar weight loss of 27 kg ± 7 kg. At the spine, there was a significant interaction between diabetes status and changes in both marrow fat content and the unsaturated lipid index (p = 0.02, p < 0.01 for differences, respectively). Women with diabetes had a trend towards a decline in marrow fat content (-4.3 % ± 8.2 %, p = 0.09) and increase in the unsaturated lipid index (+1.1 % ± 1.5 %, p = 0.02). In contrast, BMAT parameters did not significantly change in women without diabetes. In all women, changes in the unsaturated lipid index inversely correlated with hemoglobin A1c changes (r = -0.47, p = 0.02). At the tibia, there was little BMAT change by diabetes status. Our results suggest that vertebral BMAT composition is responsive to changes in glycemic control after RYGB.

Changes in volumetric bone mineral density and bone quality after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: A meta-analysis with meta-regression. Obes Rev 2022; 23:e13479. [PMID: 35665991 PMCID: PMC9541815 DOI: 10.1111/obr.13479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
This meta-analysis aimed to assess the effect of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on three-dimensionally assessed volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) with the effect of time on these changes, on bone quality, and the agreement of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) with quantitative computed tomography (QCT) or high-resolution peripheral QCT (HR-pQCT) estimates of bone loss. We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, Scopus, and EBSCO. Longitudinal studies on adults undergoing RYGB in which vBMD was assessed by QCT or HR-pQCT with ≥6 months follow-up were included. Total hip (TH) changes were reported in four studies, lumbar spine (LS) in eight, radius in eight, and tibia in seven. Significant post-RYGB vBMD reductions occurred at all skeletal sites analyzed. Meta-regression revealed that time post-RYGB was significantly associated with vBMD deterioration in all skeletal sites except at the TH. RYGB also led to significant deterioration on bone quality. DXA underestimated LS and overestimated TH bone losses post-RYGB. In conclusion, RYGB was associated with significant vBMD loss, which makes screening of bone mass progression by three-dimensional technology a crucial clinical issue to prevent fracture risk and osteoporosis.

Abstract
Obesity is a risk factor for chronic diseases and moderate weight loss is generally recommended. Energy restriction results in the loss of hip bone mineral density (BMD) in older adults, but there is no consistent decline at the lumbar spine (LS), possibly due to vertebral abnormalities although this may also be dependent on the amount of weight loss. In this secondary analysis of weight loss trials investigating BMD and trabecular bone score (TBS) changes over 12-18 months, 92 postmenopausal women (60.8 ± 5.8 years; body mass index 32.7 ± 4.4 kg/m2) without osteoporosis, were divided into two groups: those who lost < 5% body weight (minimal) or ≥ 5% (moderate). Hip and LS-BMD and TBS were measured at baseline, 6 and 12-18 months. Exclusion of vertebral abnormalities (VE) was used to calculate BMD at the spine (LS-BMD-VE) using standard guidelines. Women lost 2.3 ± 2.4% and 8.5 ± 4.7% weight in the minimal and moderate weight loss groups, respectively. Over one third of the women had at least one vertebral abnormality or partially degraded TBS at baseline that worsened after weight loss, increasing to over 50% in this population (p < 0.05). TBS and hip BMD decreased with weight loss (p < 0.05), but LS-BMD did not decrease significantly. However, after excluding vertebral abnormalities, the LS-BMD-VE decreased in the entire population (p < 0.01), and by 1.7 ± 4.3% in the moderate weight loss group. This study suggests that older women without osteoporosis have vertebral abnormalities that obfuscated declines in BMD with weight loss, indicating that bone at the spine is further compromised.

Abstract
It has been increasingly acknowledged that bariatric surgery adversely affects skeletal health. After bariatric surgery, the extent of high-turnover bone loss is much greater than what would be expected in the absence of a severe skeletal insult. Patients also experience a significant deterioration in bone microarchitecture and strength. There is now a growing body of evidence that suggests an association between bariatric surgery and higher fracture risk. Although the mechanisms underlying the high-turnover bone loss and increase in fracture risk after bariatric surgery are not fully understood, many factors seem to be involved. The usual suspects are nutritional factors and mechanical unloading, and the roles of gut hormones, adipokines, and bone marrow adiposity should be investigated further. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) was once the most commonly performed bariatric procedure worldwide, but sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has now become the predominant bariatric procedure. Accumulating evidence suggests that RYGB is associated with a greater reduction in BMD, a greater increase in markers of bone turnover, and a higher risk of fracture than SG. These findings should be taken into consideration in determining the most appropriate bariatric procedure for patients, especially those at higher fracture risk. Before and after all bariatric procedures, sufficient calcium, vitamin D and protein intake, and adequate physical activity, are needed to counteract negative impacts on bone. There are no studies to date that have evaluated the effect of osteoporosis treatment on high-turnover bone loss after bariatric surgery. However, in patients with a diagnosis of osteoporosis, anti-resorptive agents may be considered.

Abstract
Patients who undergo bariatric surgery (BS) have an increased risk of falls. Our aim was to determine if a multicomponent exercise intervention after BS improves balance. Eighty-four patients with obesity enrolled for BS were recruited and 1 month after BS randomly allocated to a control (CG; standard medical care) or exercise group (EG; exercise plus standard medical care) consisting of a supervised multicomponent training program (3d/week; 75 min/session; 5 months). Anthropometry, lower limb muscle strength (isokinetic dynamometer), vitamin D (ELISA) and balance in bipedal stance (force platform) were assessed pre-BS, 1 month and 6 months post-BS. One month post-BS, significant balance improvements were observed, namely in antero-posterior center of gravity (CoG) displacement and velocity, and medio-lateral and total CoG velocity. Between 1- and 6-months post-BS, improvements in balance were observed only in the EG, with a significant treatment effect on CoG displacement area and antero-posterior CoG displacement. No significant differences were observed between EG and CG over time in any of the anthropometric, muscle strength, and vitamin D variables assayed. In conclusion, a multicomponent exercise intervention program improves some balance parameters in patients with severe obesity following BS and therefore should be part of post-BS follow-up care as a potential strategy to reduce falls and associated injuries.

Abstract
Roux-en Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an effective treatment for obesity; however, it may negatively impact skeletal health by increasing fracture risk. This increase may be the result not only of decreased bone mineral density but also of changes in bone microstructure, for example, increased cortical porosity. Increased tibial and radial cortical porosity of patients undergoing RYGB surgery has been observed as early as 6 months postoperatively; however, local microstructural changes and associated biological mechanisms driving this increase remain unclear. To provide insight, we studied the spatial distribution of cortical porosity in 42 women and men (aged 46 ± 12 years) after RYGB surgery. Distal tibias and radii were evaluated with high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively. Laminar analysis was used to determine cortical pore number and size within the endosteal, midcortical, and periosteal layers of the cortex. Paired t tests were used to compare baseline versus follow-up porosity parameters in each layer. Mixed models were used to compare longitudinal changes in laminar analysis outcomes between layers. We found that the midcortical (0.927 ± 0.607 mm-2 to 1.069 ± 0.654 mm-2 , p = 0.004; 0.439 ± 0.293 mm-2 to 0.509 ± 0.343 mm-2 , p = 0.03) and periosteal (0.642 ± 0.412 mm-2 to 0.843 ± 0.452 mm-2 , p < 0.0001; 0.171 ± 0.101 mm-2 to 0.230 ± 0.160 mm-2 , p = 0.003) layers underwent the greatest increases in porosity over the 12-month period at the distal tibia and radius, respectively. The endosteal layer, which had the greatest porosity at baseline, did not undergo significant porosity increase over the same period (1.234 ± 0.402 mm-2 to 1.259 ± 0.413 mm-2 , p = 0.49; 0.584 ± 0.290 mm-2 to 0.620 ± 0.299 mm-2 , p = 0.35) at the distal tibia and radius, respectively. An alternative baseline-mapping approach for endosteal boundary definition confirmed that cortical bone loss was not primarily endosteal. These findings indicate that increases in cortical porosity happen in regions distant from the endosteal surface, suggesting that the underlying mechanism driving the increase in cortical porosity is not merely endosteal trabecularization. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
CONTEXT The adverse skeletal effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are partly caused by intestinal calcium absorption decline. Prebiotics, such as soluble corn fiber (SCF), augment colonic calcium absorption in healthy individuals. OBJECTIVE We tested the effects of SCF on fractional calcium absorption (FCA), biochemical parameters, and the fecal microbiome in a post-RYGB population. METHODS Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 20 postmenopausal women with history of RYGB a mean 5 years prior; a 2-month course of 20 g/day SCF or maltodextrin placebo was taken orally. The main outcome measure was between-group difference in absolute change in FCA (primary outcome) and was measured with a gold standard dual stable isotope method. Other measures included tolerability, adherence, serum calciotropic hormones and bone turnover markers, and fecal microbial composition via 16S rRNA gene sequencing. RESULTS Mean FCA ± SD at baseline was low at 5.5 ± 5.1%. Comparing SCF to placebo, there was no between-group difference in mean (95% CI) change in FCA (+3.4 [-6.7, +13.6]%), nor in calciotropic hormones or bone turnover markers. The SCF group had a wider variation in FCA change than placebo (SD 13.4% vs 7.0%). Those with greater change in microbial composition following SCF treatment had greater increase in FCA (r2 = 0.72, P = 0.05). SCF adherence was high, and gastrointestinal symptoms were similar between groups. CONCLUSION No between-group differences were observed in changes in FCA or calciotropic hormones, but wide CIs suggest a variable impact of SCF that may be due to the degree of gut microbiome alteration. Daily SCF consumption was well tolerated. Larger and longer-term studies are warranted.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a global public health problem, with fractures contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. Although postmenopausal osteoporosis is most common, up to 30% of postmenopausal women, > 50% of premenopausal women, and between 50% and 80% of men have secondary osteoporosis. Exclusion of secondary causes is important, as treatment of such patients often commences by treating the underlying condition. These are varied but often neglected, ranging from endocrine to chronic inflammatory and genetic conditions. General screening is recommended for all patients with osteoporosis, with advanced investigations reserved for premenopausal women and men aged < 50 years, for older patients in whom classical risk factors for osteoporosis are absent, and for all patients with the lowest bone mass (Z-score ≤ -2). The response of secondary osteoporosis to conventional anti-osteoporosis therapy may be inadequate if the underlying condition is unrecognized and untreated. Bone densitometry, using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, may underestimate fracture risk in some chronic diseases, including glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, and obesity, and may overestimate fracture risk in others (eg, Turner syndrome). FRAX and trabecular bone score may provide additional information regarding fracture risk in secondary osteoporosis, but their use is limited to adults aged ≥ 40 years and ≥ 50 years, respectively. In addition, FRAX requires adjustment in some chronic conditions, such as glucocorticoid use, type 2 diabetes, and HIV. In most conditions, evidence for antiresorptive or anabolic therapy is limited to increases in bone mass. Current osteoporosis management guidelines also neglect secondary osteoporosis and these existing evidence gaps are discussed.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery (BS) is the most effective therapy for severe obesity, which improves several comorbidities (such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, among others) and results in marked weight loss. Despite these consensual beneficial effects, sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (the two main bariatric techniques) have also been associated with changes in bone metabolism and progressive bone loss. The objective of this literature review is to examine the impact of bariatric surgery on bone and its main metabolic links, and to analyze the latest findings regarding the risk of fracture among patients submitted to bariatric surgery.

Abstract
We aimed to assess if exercise applied after bariatric surgery (BS) improves bone mineral density (BMD) compared to usual care. Systematic search was conducted up to January 2021. Effect measures were determined using standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Certainty evidence was assessed according to GRADE. Four clinical trials encompassing 340 patients were included. Exercise induced a positive BMD effect at total hip (SMD = 0.37 [95% CI 0.02, 0.71]; very low certainty evidence), femoral neck (SMD = 0.63 [95% CI 0.19, 1.06]; low certainty evidence), lumbar spine (SMD = 0.41 [95% CI 0.19, 0.62]; low certainty evidence), and 1/3 radius (SMD = 0.58 [95% CI 0.19, 0.97]; low certainty evidence). Exercise undertaken after BS seems to induce a positive effect on BMD.

Abstract
Obesity is a global health challenge that warrants effective treatments to avoid its multiple comorbidities. Bariatric surgery, a cornerstone treatment to control bodyweight excess and relieve the health-related burdens of obesity, can promote accelerated bone loss and affect skeletal strength, particularly after malabsorptive and mixed surgical procedures, and probably after restrictive surgeries. The increase in bone resorption markers occurs early and persist for up to 12 months or longer after bariatric surgery, while bone formation markers increase but to a lesser extent, suggesting a potential uncoupling process between resorption and formation. The skeletal response to bariatric surgery, as investigated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), has shown significant loss in bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip with less consistent results for the lumbar spine. Supporting DXA studies, analyses by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) showed lower cortical density and thickness, higher cortical porosity, and lower trabecular density and number for up to 5 years after bariatric surgery. These alterations translate into an increased risk of fall injury, which contributes to increase the fracture risk in patients who have been subjected to bariatric surgery procedures. As bone deterioration continues for years following bariatric surgery, the fracture risk does not seem to be dependent on acute weight loss but, rather, is a chronic condition with an increasing impact over time. Among the post-bariatric surgery mechanisms that have been claimed to act globally on bone health, there is evidence that micro- and macro-nutrient malabsorptive factors, mechanical unloading and changes in molecules partaking in the crosstalk between adipose tissue, bone and muscle may play a determining role. Given these circumstances, it is conceivable that bone health should be adequately investigated in candidates to bariatric surgery through bone-specific work-up and dedicated postsurgical follow-up. Specific protocols of nutrients supplementation, motor activity, structured rehabilitative programs and, when needed, targeted therapeutic strategies should be deemed as an integral part of post-bariatric surgery clinical support.

Bariatric surgery and skeletal health: A narrative review and position statement for management by the European Calcified Tissue Society (ECTS). Bone 2022; 154:116236. [PMID: 34688942 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2021.116236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Revised: 10/02/2021] [Accepted: 10/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
CONTEXT Numerous studies have demonstrated detrimental skeletal consequences following bariatric surgery. METHODS A working group of the European Calcified Tissue Society (ECTS) performed an updated review of existing literature on changes of bone turnover markers (BTMs), bone mineral density (BMD), and fracture risk following bariatric surgery and provided advice on management based on expert opinion. LITERATURE REVIEW Based on observational studies, bariatric surgery is associated with a 21-44% higher risk of all fractures. Fracture risk is time-dependent and increases approximately 3 years after bariatric surgery. The bariatric procedures that have a malabsorptive component (including Roux-en-Y Gastric bypass (RYGB) and biliopancreatic diversion (BPD)) have clearly been associated with the highest risk of fracture. The extent of high-turnover bone loss suggests a severe skeletal insult. This is associated with diminished bone strength and compromised microarchitecture. RYGB was the most performed bariatric procedure worldwide until very recently, when sleeve gastrectomy (SG) became more prominent. There is growing evidence that RYGB is associated with greater reduction in BMD, greater increase in BTMs, and higher risk of fractures compared with SG but RCTs on optimal management are still lacking. EXPERT OPINION In all patients, it is mandatory to treat vitamin D deficiency, to achieve adequate daily calcium and protein intake and to promote physical activity before and following bariatric surgery. In post-menopausal women and men older than 50 years, osteoporosis treatment would be reasonable in the presence of any of the following criteria: i) history of recent fragility fracture after 40 years of age, ii) BMD T-score ≤ -2 at hip or spine, iii) FRAX score with femoral neck BMD exceeding 20% for the 10-year major osteoporotic fracture probability or exceeding 3% for hip fracture. Zoledronate as first choice should be preferred due to intolerance of oral formulations and malabsorption. Zoledronate should be used with caution due to hypocemia risk. It is recommended to ensure adequate 25-OH vitamin D level and calcium supplementation before administering zoledronate. CONCLUSIONS The bariatric procedures that have a malabsorptive component have been associated with the highest turnover bone loss and risk of fracture. There is a knowledge gap on osteoporosis treatment in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. More research is necessary to direct and support guidelines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still debated whether differences in bone turnover markers (BTMs) exist between the 2 most popular bariatric surgery procedures (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass [RYGB] and sleeve gastrectomy [SG]). OBJECTIVES To compare changes in BTMs after RYGB and SG, and to investigate their association with predefined markers of interest. SETTING University hospital, Lille, France. METHODS An ancillary investigation of a prospective cohort was conducted. SG patients with severe obesity ≥40 years were matched one-to-one to RYGB patients for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and menopausal status. BTMs, as well as predefined markers of interest, were measured at baseline, 12, and 24 months after bariatric surgery. RESULTS Sixty-four patients (66% women) had a mean (standard deviation [SD]) age of 49.6 years (5.1) and a mean (SD) BMI of 45.0 kg/m2 (6.0). From baseline to 12 months, a significant increase in BTMs was observed in both groups (P < .001). Moreover, RYGB was associated with a greater increase in C-terminal telopeptide (β-CTX) and procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (PINP) compared with SG (P < .0001). From 12 to 24 months, a significant decrease in BTMs was observed in both groups, but no significant differences were found between RYGB and SG. However, BTMs did not return to baseline levels. The changes in PINP and β-CTX at 12 months were independently associated with the type of surgical procedure, after adjusting for weight or each predefined marker of interest (all P < .0001). CONCLUSION RYGB was associated with a greater increase in BTMs than SG at 12 and 24 months.

The effect of bariatric surgery on gravitational loading and its impact on bone mass. Bone 2021; 153:116153.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mechanical unloading associated with weight loss might be one of the main causes for bariatric surgery (BS) induced bone loss. However, no study has tested this hypothesis through objectively measured accelerometry-derived gravitational loading. We aimed to assess how gravitational loading changes following BS and how this correlates with bone mass losses. METHODS Twenty-one patients submitted to gastric bypass were assessed before, 1, 6 and 12 months after BS for areal bone mineral density (BMD), calciotropic hormones, sclerostin, body composition and daily physical activity. Gravitational loading was determined as the sum of ground reaction forces assessed by accelerometer which considered the interaction between weight and daily ambulation. RESULTS Mechanical stimuli promoted through the significant increase in steps number counterbalanced the gravitational loading decreases derived from the significant weight loss after BS. Gravitational loading volume decreased between pre-BS and 1 month post-BS (-2215 kN·d-1; p = .023), but remained stable between 6 and 12 months post-BS, despite decreases on hip (-7.0%; p < .001), femoral neck (-8.8%; p < .001) and lumbar spine (-5.2%; p < .001) BMD. Serum sclerostin increased from pre-BS to 1 month post-BS (+0.118 ng·mL-1; p = .021), returning to pre-BS levels 6 months after surgery. Neither vitamin D nor parathyroid hormone were affected by BS. Weight variation was a predictor of BMD decreases at total hip (R2 = 0.06; p = .026) and femoral neck (R2 = 0.12; p = .022), whereas daily gravitational loading volume was not. Fat and lean mass changes were also predictors of BMD decrease at total hip (R2 = 0.05; p = .031) and femoral neck (R2 = 0.14; p = .010), respectively. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that gravitational loading only decreased during the first month after surgery remaining stable thereafter, and these changes do not seem to explain BS-induced bone loss. The association between weight and bone loss seems to result from other physiological aspects, fat and lean mass loss, rather than from gravitational loading decrease.

Bone Mineral Density Trends During the First Year After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy-a Cohort Study on 241 Patients. Obes Surg 2021; 31:4885-4892. [PMID: 34449028 PMCID: PMC8490210 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-021-05661-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2021] [Revised: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is an effective weight loss procedure, but detrimental effects on bone health have been described. We aimed to assess the dynamics of regional and total bone mineral density (BMD) in a cohort of patients undergoing LSG and to capture gender differences in terms of evolution. Materials and Methods We conducted a retrospective study on 241 patients who underwent LSG to determine the regional and total BMD changes at 6 and 12 months after the intervention. Results One hundred ten males and 140 females (97 pre-, 43 postmenopausal) were included. Mean baseline body mass index (BMI) was 44.16 ± 6.11 kg/m2 in males and 41.60 ± 5.54 kg/m2 in females, reaching 28.62 ± 4.26 kg/m2 and 27.39 ± 4.2 kg/m2, respectively, at 12 months. BMD showed a continuous decline, with significant loss from 6 months postoperatively. There was a positive correlation between BMD and BMI decline at 12 months (r = 0.134, p < 0.05). Total BMD loss at 12 months was significantly greater in males than premenopausal females, independent of BMI variation and age. During the first 6 months, men lost significantly more bone mass than premenopausal and postmenopausal women (BMD variation was 2.62%, 0.27%, 1.58%, respectively). The second period (6–12 months) was similar in all three groups, revealing a further steady (~ 1.4%) BMD decline. Conclusions Our results are consistent with previous findings that LSG negatively impacts BMD, stressing the importance of bone health-oriented measures in postoperative care. Moreover, the impact that seems more significant in males warrants future exploration, as it might change clinical practice. Graphical abstract ![]()

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone mineral density (BMD) declines in the initial years after bariatric surgery, but long-term skeletal effects are unclear and comparisons between sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are rare. DESIGN AND METHODS An observational longitudinal study of obese patients undergoing SG or RYGB was performed. Whole-body (WB) BMD, along with BMD of the total hip (TH), femoral neck (FN), and lumbar spine (LS), was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) before surgery and yearly thereafter for 4 years. Calciotropic hormones were also measured. RESULTS Forty-seven patients undergoing RYGB surgery and 28 patients undergoing SG were included. Four years after RYGB, BMD declined by 2.8 ± 5.8% in LS, 8.6 ± 5% in FN, 10.9 ± 6.3% in TH, and 4.2 ± 6.2% in WB, relative to baseline. For SG, BMD declined by 8.1 ± 5.5% in FN, 7.7 ± 6% in TH, 2.0 ± 7.2% in LS, and 2.5 ± 6.4% in WB after 4 years, relative to baseline. Vitamin D levels increased with supplementation in both groups. Whereas parathyroid hormone levels increased slightly in the RYGB group, they decreased modestly in the SG group (P < 0.05 in both groups). CONCLUSIONS Bone loss after 4 years was comparable between the two procedures, although RYGB was associated with a slightly greater decrease at the TH than SG. Bone health should therefore be monitored after both RYGB and SG.

Abstract
CONTEXT The prevalence of obesity is burgeoning among African American and Latina women; however, few studies investigating the skeletal effects of bariatric surgery have focused on these groups. OBJECTIVE To investigate long-term skeletal changes following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in African American and Latina women. DESIGN Four-year prospective cohort study. PATIENTS African American and Latina women presenting for RYGB (n = 17, mean age 44, body mass index 44 kg/m2) were followed annually for 4 years postoperatively. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measured areal bone mineral density (aBMD) at the spine, hip, and forearm, and body composition. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography measured volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and microarchitecture. Individual trabecula segmentation-based morphological analysis assessed trabecular morphology and connectivity. RESULTS Baseline DXA Z-Scores were normal. Weight decreased ~30% at Year 1, then stabilized. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) increased by 50% and 25-hydroxyvitamin D was stable. By Year 4, aBMD had declined at all sites, most substantially in the hip. There was significant, progressive loss of cortical and trabecular vBMD, deterioration of microarchitecture, and increased cortical porosity at both the radius and tibia over 4 years. There was loss of trabecular plates, loss of axially aligned trabeculae, and decreased trabecular connectivity. Whole bone stiffness and failure load declined. Risk factors for bone loss included greater weight loss, rise in PTH, and older age. CONCLUSIONS African American and Latina women had substantial and progressive bone loss, deterioration of microarchitecture, and trabecular morphology following RYGB. Further studies are critical to understand the long-term skeletal consequences of bariatric surgery in this population.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2021; 12:599316.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetic bone disease is characterized by an increased fracture risk which may be partly attributed to deficits in cortical bone quality such as higher cortical porosity. However, the temporal evolution of bone microarchitecture, strength, and particularly of cortical porosity in diabetic bone disease is still unknown. Here, we aimed to prospectively characterize the 5-year changes in bone microarchitecture, strength, and cortical porosity in type 2 diabetic (T2D) postmenopausal women with (DMFx) and without history of fragility fractures (DM) and to compare those to nondiabetic fracture free controls (Co) using high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT). Methods Thirty-two women underwent baseline HR-pQCT scanning of the ultradistal tibia and radius and a FU-scan 5 years later. Bone microarchitectural parameters, including cortical porosity, and bone strength estimates via µFEA were calculated for each timepoint and annualized. Linear regression models (adjusted for race and change in BMI) were used to compare the annualized percent changes in microarchitectural parameters between groups. Results At baseline at the tibia, DMFx subjects exhibited the highest porosity of the three groups (66.3% greater Ct.Po, 71.9% higher Ct.Po.Volume than DM subjects, p < 0.022). Longitudinally, porosity increased significantly over time in all three groups and at similar annual rates, while DMFx exhibited the greatest annual decreases in bone strength indices (compared to DM 4.7× and 6.7× greater decreases in failure load [F] and stiffness [K], p < 0.025; compared to Co 14.1× and 22.2× greater decreases in F and K, p < 0.020). Conclusion Our data suggest that despite different baseline levels in cortical porosity, T2D women with and without fractures experienced long-term porosity increases at a rate similar to non-diabetics. However, the annual loss in bone strength was greatest in T2D women with a history of a fragility fractures. This suggests a potentially non-linear course of cortical porosity development in T2D bone disease: major porosity may develop early in the course of disease, followed by a smaller steady annual increase in porosity which in turn can still have a detrimental effect on bone strength-depending on the amount of early cortical pre-damage.

Zoledronic acid for prevention of bone loss in patients receiving bariatric surgery. Bone Rep 2021; 14:100760. [PMID: 33816718 PMCID: PMC8005765 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2021.100760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2021] [Accepted: 02/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for severe obesity but causes substantial bone loss and increased risk of fractures. To date, there have been no studies examining whether pharmacologic treatments can prevent bone loss after bariatric surgery. We performed an exploratory study to examine the preliminary safety and efficacy of zoledronic acid (ZOL), a potent anti-resorptive bisphosphonate, to suppress bone turnover markers (BTM) and prevent declines in bone mineral density (BMD) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. Methods We performed an open-label pilot study of pre-operative ZOL in postmenopausal women with obesity who were planning RYGB (n = 4). A single dose of zoledronic acid 5 mg was given intravenously prior to RYGB. Serum bone biochemistries including C-telopeptide (CTX) and procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) were measured at multiple timepoints throughout the 24-week study. BMD was also obtained at the spine and hip by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and at the trabecular spine by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) at pre-operative baseline and 24 weeks. Results were compared against pre-operative baseline and against changes among RYGB historical controls (n = 10). Results At 2 weeks after RYGB, there was a nonsignificant trend for CTX and P1NP levels to be lower than baseline levels in the ZOL group. By 24 weeks after RYGB, however, participants who received ZOL had a significant increase in CTX above pre-operative baseline (+0.228 ± 0.117 ng/dL, p = 0.030) but this CTX rise was less than that observed in the controls (+0.601 ± 0.307 ng/dL, p = 0.042 between groups). Despite ZOL use, participants had significant areal BMD loss at the total hip as compared to pre-operative baseline (-4.2 ± 1.5%, p = 0.012) that was similar in magnitude to total hip BMD loss in the controls (-5.5 ± 3.9%, p = 0.005). There was a suggestion that the ZOL group might be protected against trabecular spine volumetric bone loss as compared to the control group (+4.8 ± 8.0% vs. -5.9 ± 7.0%, p = 0.075 between groups). Serum calcium, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and parathyroid hormone did not change in either group. No hypocalcemia or serious adverse events were reported after ZOL. Conclusion In this proof of concept study, a single dose of ZOL prior to RYGB appeared to transiently mitigate but not fully prevent high bone turnover in the acute postoperative period. At 24 weeks after RYGB, our preliminary data suggest that ZOL was not sufficient to prevent bone loss at the hip, although it may preserve bone density at the trabecular spine. Further prospective, controlled studies are needed to confirm our findings and to identify the best strategies for preventing bone loss in bariatric patients receiving RYGB.

The Effect of an Exercise Intervention Program on Bone Health After Bariatric Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial. J Bone Miner Res 2021; 36:489-499.

Abstract
Exercise has been suggested as a therapeutic approach to attenuate bone loss induced by bariatric surgery (BS), but its effectiveness remains unclear. Our aim was to determine if an exercise-training program could induce benefits on bone mass after BS. Eighty-four patients, submitted to gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, were randomized to either exercise (EG) or control group (CG). One month post-BS, EG underwent a 11-month supervised multicomponent exercise program, while CG received only standard medical care. Patients were assessed before BS and at 1, 6, and 12 months post-BS for body composition, areal bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover markers, calciotropic hormones, sclerostin, bone material strength index, muscle strength, and daily physical activity. A primary analysis was conducted according to intention-to-treat principles and the primary outcome was the between-group difference on lumbar spine BMD at 12 months post-BS. A secondary analysis was also performed to analyze if the exercise effect depended on training attendance. Twelve months post-BS, primary analysis results revealed that EG had a higher BMD at lumbar spine (+0.024 g∙cm-2 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.004, 0.044]; p = .015) compared with CG. Among total hip, femoral neck, and 1/3 radius secondary outcomes, only 1/3 radius BMD improved in EG compared with CG (+0.013 g∙cm-2 [95% CI 0.003, 0.023]; p = .020). No significant exercise effects were observed on bone biochemical markers or bone material strength index. EG also had a higher lean mass (+1.5 kg [95% CI 0.1, 2.9]; p = .037) and higher number of high impacts (+51.4 [95% CI 6.6, 96.1]; p = .026) compared with CG. In addition, secondary analysis results suggest that exercise-induced benefits may be obtained on femoral neck BMD but only on those participants with ≥50% exercise attendance compared with CG (+5.3% [95% CI 2.0, 8.6]; p = .006). Our findings suggest that an exercise program is an effective strategy to ameliorate bone health in post-BS patients. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) instigates high-turnover bone loss in the initial 5 years after surgery, whereas skeletal changes after adjustable gastric banding (AGB) are less pronounced. Long-term skeletal data are scarce, and the mechanisms of bone loss remain unclear. We sought to examine bone density and microarchitecture in RYGB and AGB patients a decade after surgery and to determine whether prior published reports of bone loss represent an appropriate adaptation to new postsurgical weight. In this cross-sectional study, 25 RYGB and 25 AGB subjects who had bariatric surgery ≥10 years ago were matched 1:1 with nonsurgical controls for age, sex, and current body mass index (BMI). We obtained bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), volumetric BMD and microarchitecture by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), trabecular morphology by individual trabecular segmentation, and metabolic bone laboratory results. As compared with BMI-matched controls, RYGB subjects had significantly lower hip BMD, and lower total volumetric BMD at the distal radius and tibia. Substantial deficits in cortical and trabecular microarchitecture were observed in the RYGB group compared to controls, with reduced trabecular plate bone volume fraction and estimated failure load at both the radius and tibia, respectively. Bone turnover markers CTX and P1NP were 99% and 77% higher in the RYGB group than controls, respectively, with no differences in serum calcium, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, or parathyroid hormone. In contrast, the AGB group did not differ from their BMI-matched controls in any measured bone density, microarchitecture, or laboratory parameter. Thus, RYGB, but not AGB, is associated with lower than expected hip and peripheral BMD for the new weight setpoint, as well as deleterious changes in bone microarchitecture. These findings suggest that pathophysiologic processes other than mechanical unloading or secondary hyperparathyroidism contribute to bone loss after RYGB, and have important clinical implications for the long-term care of RYGB patients. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Sleeve gastrectomy-induced endocrine changes in the remnant stomachs of premenopausal and postmenopausal rats: role of the estrogen receptors. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2020; 17:193-207. [PMID: 33011072 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2020.08.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2020] [Revised: 08/02/2020] [Accepted: 08/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although alterations in the plasma levels of leptin, glucagon-like peptide-1, and gastrin were linked with bariatric surgery outcomes, gastric production of these peptides was not elucidated before. OBJECTIVE The aim was to evaluate the impact of estrogen depletion and estrogen receptors (ERs) on sleeve gastrectomy (SG)-induced alterations in gastric hormone production, gastric mucosal integrity, and bone mass. SETTING Physiology Research Lab at the University. METHODS Female Sprague-Dawley rats underwent ovariectomy or sham operation (control), and 2 months later SG or sham SG was performed. Rats received either nonselective agonist 17 β, ER-α agonist, ER-β agonist, or vehicle for 3 weeks. Trunk blood and gastric tissues were collected for biochemical measurements, while histopathologic examination was performed in gastric and femur samples. RESULTS In the presence of intact ovaries, SG-induced weight loss was accompanied by reductions in the gastric synthesis of leptin and gastrin, while gastric glucagon-like peptide-1 was additionally decreased when SG was performed at the postmenopausal state. SG elevated the depleted serum estradiol levels of menopause, implicating a beneficial effect, but the occurrence of severe gastric mucosal injury was triggered. On the other hand, using ER agonists upregulated gastrin-expressing cells, ameliorated gastric injury, and improved bone loss. CONCLUSIONS SG, either at premenopausal or postmenopausal state, resulted in considerable loss in bone mass, along with reductions in the gastric levels of gastrin and leptin. Functional status of the ovaries needs to be taken into consideration when monitoring the outcomes of SG, and ER agonists could be of value in controlling SG-induced complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Significant weight loss following treatments for obesity undermines bone metabolism and increases bone turnover and fracture incidence. High resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) is widely used in skeletal heath assessment research to provide noninvasive bone parameter measurement (e.g. volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD)) with minimal radiation exposure. However, variation in body composition among study groups or longitudinal variations within individuals undergoing significant weight change will generate artifacts and errors in HR-pQCT data. The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of these artifacts on the measurement of vBMD. METHODS We designed a custom-made hydroxyapatite (HA)-polymer phantom surrounded by layers of reusable gel pack and hydrogenated fat to mimic the distal tibia and the surrounding lean and fat tissue. Four different thicknesses of fat were used to mimic the soft tissue of increasingly overweight individuals. We then evaluated how a change in soft tissue thickness influenced image quality and vBMD quantification within total, trabecular, and cortical bone compartments. Based on these data, we applied a data correction to previously acquired clinical data in a cohort of gastric bypass patients. RESULTS In the phantom measurements, total, trabecular, and cortical vBMD increased as soft tissue thickness decreased. The impact of soft tissue thickness on vBMD varied by anatomic quadrant. When applying the soft tissue data correction to a set of clinical data, we found that soft tissue reduction following bariatric surgery can lead to a clinically significant underestimation of bone loss in longitudinal data, and that the effect is most severe in the cortical compartment. CONCLUSION HR-pQCT-based vBMD measurement accuracy is influenced by soft tissue thickness and is spatially inhomogeneous. Our results suggest that variations in soft tissue thickness must be considered in HR-pQCT studies, particularly in studies enrolling cohorts with differing body composition or in studies of longitudinal weight change.

Gastric Bypass But Not Sleeve Gastrectomy Increases Risk of Major Osteoporotic Fracture: French Population-Based Cohort Study. J Bone Miner Res 2020; 35:1415-1423. [PMID: 32187759 DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2019] [Revised: 02/14/2020] [Accepted: 03/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this work was to investigate the risk of major osteoporotic fracture (MOF; hip, proximal humerus, wrist and distal forearm, and clinical spine) in bariatric surgery patients versus matched controls. Bariatric surgery is associated with an increase in fracture risk. However, it remains unclear whether the same degree of fracture risk is associated with sleeve gastrectomy, which has recently surpassed gastric bypass. Records from the French National Inpatient database were used from 2008 to 2018. Bariatric surgery patients, aged 40 to 65 years, with BMI ≥40 kg/m2 , hospitalized between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2014, were matched to one control (1:1) by age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, year of inclusion, and class of obesity (40 to 49.9 kg/m2 versus ≥50 kg/m2 ). We performed a Cox regression analysis to assess the association between the risk of any MOF and, respectively, (i) bariatric surgery (yes/no) and (ii) type of surgical procedure (gastric bypass, gastric banding, vertical banded gastroplasty, and sleeve gastrectomy) versus no surgery. A total of 81,984 patients were included in the study (40,992 in the bariatric surgery group, and 40,992 matched controls). There were 585 MOFs in the surgical group (2.30 cases per 1000 patient-year [PY]) and 416 MOFs in the matched controls (1.93 cases per 1000 PY). The risk of MOF was significantly higher in the surgical group (hazard ratio [HR] 1.22; 95% CI, 1.08-1.39). We observed an increase in risk of MOF for gastric bypass only (HR 1.70; 95% CI, 1.46-1.98) compared with the matched controls. In patients aged 40 to 65 years, gastric bypass but not sleeve gastrectomy or the other procedures increased risk of major osteoporotic fractures. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Importance Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is associated with significant bone loss and may increase fracture risk, whereas substantial bone loss and increased fracture risk have not been reported after adjustable gastric banding (AGB). Previous studies have had little representation of patients aged 65 years or older, and it is currently unknown how age modifies fracture risk. Objective To compare fracture risk after RYGB and AGB procedures in a large, nationally representative cohort enriched for older adults. Design, Setting, and Participants This population-based retrospective cohort analysis used Medicare claims data from January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2014, from 42 345 severely obese adults, of whom 29 624 received RYGB and 12 721 received AGB. Data analysis was performed from April 2017 to November 2018. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was incident nonvertebral (ie, wrist, humerus, pelvis, and hip) fractures after RYGB and AGB surgery defined using a combination of International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Edition and Current Procedural Terminology 4 codes. Results Of 42 345 participants, 33 254 (78.5%) were women. With a mean (SD) age of 51 (12) years, recipients of RYGB were younger than AGB recipients (55 [12] years). Both groups had similar comorbidities, medication use, and health care utilization in the 365 days before surgery. Over a mean (SD) follow-up of 3.5 (2.1) years, 658 nonvertebral fractures were documented. The fracture incidence rate was 6.6 (95% CI, 6.0-7.2) after RYGB and 4.6 (95% CI, 3.9-5.3) after AGB, which translated to a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.73 (95% CI, 1.45-2.08) after multivariable adjustment. Site-specific analyses demonstrated an increased fracture risk at the hip (HR, 2.81; 95% CI, 1.82-4.49), wrist (HR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.33-2.14), and pelvis (HR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.08-2.07) among RYGB recipients. No significant interactions of fracture risk with age, sex, diabetes status, or race were found. In particular, adults 65 years and older showed similar patterns of fracture risk to younger adults. Sensitivity analyses using propensity score matching showed similar results (nonvertebral fracture: HR 1.75; 95% CI, 1.22-2.52). Conclusions and Relevance This study of a large, US population-based cohort including a substantial population of older adults found a 73% increased risk of nonvertebral fracture after RYGB compared with AGB, including increased risk of hip, wrist, and pelvis fractures. Fracture risk was consistently increased among RYGB patients vs AGB across different subgroups, and to a similar degree among older and younger adults. Increased fracture risk appears to be an important unintended consequence of RYGB.

Abstract
Obesity affects one-third of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) patients and is the most common modifiable risk factor for increased complications in the TJA population. The authors' institution implemented a body mass index (BMI) cutoff of 40 kg/m2 to define appropriate TJA candidates. Patients above the cutoff were referred for nutritional counseling. The study objective was to evaluate the efficacy of this protocol in optimizing patient BMI for safe and successful TJA. Between 2016 and 2018, the authors examined 133 patients (mean age, 62.6 years) with a BMI greater than 40 kg/m2 seeking TJA (94 knee, 39 hip) seen by an arthroplasty surgeon and then a dietitian. Outcomes included weight loss, change in BMI, duration of counseling, and surgical status. For postoperative patients, 90-day complications were recorded. A total of 102 (92%) patients achieved weight loss during a mean 154 days (range, 8-601 days). Patients lost a mean of 17 lb, lowering their BMI by 2.7 points (range, +6.3 to -17.7 points). Twenty-two patients discontinued nutritional counseling after 1 visit, most commonly secondary to cost when not covered by insurance. Seventy-one patients successfully underwent TJA, representing 64% of those patients who participated in nutritional counseling. Complications included delayed wound healing (n=2), periprosthetic fracture (n=2), infection (n=1), cellulitis (n=1), and peroneal nerve palsy (n=1). Surgeons must actively counsel obese patients about weight optimization as part of the preoperative standard of care. Nutritional counseling with a dietitian and follow-up with the surgeon translated to safe and successful TJA in a majority of patients. [Orthopedics. 2020;43(4):e316-e322.].

Abstract
Calorie restriction (CR), the reduction of dietary intake below energy requirements while maintaining optimal nutrition, is the only known nutritional intervention with the potential to attenuate aging. Evidence from observational, preclinical, and clinical trials suggests the ability to increase life span by 1-5 years with an improvement in health span and quality of life. CR moderates intrinsic processes of aging through cellular and metabolic adaptations and reducing risk for the development of many cardiometabolic diseases. Yet, implementation of CR may require unique considerations for the elderly and other specific populations. The objectives of this review are to summarize the evidence for CR to modify primary and secondary aging; present caveats for implementation in special populations; describe newer, alternative approaches that have comparative effectiveness and fewer deleterious effects; and provide thoughts on the future of this important field of study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone loss and increased fracture risk following bariatric surgery has been reported. We investigated whether the two most commonly performed surgeries, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), lead to bone loss. In addition, we examined whether fortification of the diet with calcium citrate prevents bone loss. METHODS We used mouse models for SG and RYGB and compared bone loss with a group of sham mice with similar weight loss. All groups were switched at the time of surgery to a low-fat diet (LFD). We also examined whether fortification of the diet with calcium citrate and vitamin D was able to prevent bone loss. RESULTS At 2 weeks we observed no major bone effects. However, at 8 weeks, both trabecular and cortical bone were lost to the same extent after SG and RYGB, despite increased calcium absorption and adequate serum levels of calcium, vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Diet fortification with calcium citrate and vitamin D was able to partially prevent bone loss. CONCLUSIONS Both SG and RYGB lead to excess bone loss, despite intestinal adaptations to increase calcium absorption. Fortifying the diet with calcium citrate and vitamin D partly prevented the observed bone loss. This finding emphasizes the importance of nutritional support strategies after bariatric surgery, but also affirms that the exact mechanisms leading to bone loss after bariatric surgery remain elusive and thus warrant further research.

Bone outcomes following sleeve gastrectomy in adolescents and young adults with obesity versus non-surgical controls. Bone 2020; 134:115290. [PMID: 32084562 PMCID: PMC7138705 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2020.115290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2019] [Revised: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleeve gastrectomy is the most commonly performed weight loss surgery in adolescents with moderate-to-severe obesity. While studies in adults have reported on the deleterious effects of gastric bypass surgery on bone structure and strength estimates, data are lacking for the impact of sleeve gastrectomy on these measures in adolescents. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of sleeve gastrectomy on bone outcomes in adolescents and young adults over 12 months using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT). PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS We enrolled 44 youth 14-22 years old with moderate to severe obesity; 22 underwent sleeve gastrectomy and 22 were followed without surgery (16 females and 6 males in each group). At baseline and 12 months, DXA was used to assess areal bone mineral density (aBMD), HRpQCT of the distal radius and tibia was performed to assess bone geometry, microarchitecture and volumetric BMD (vBMD), and finite element analysis to assess strength estimates (stiffness and failure load). These analyses were adjusted for age, sex, race and the bone measure at baseline. Fasting blood samples were assessed for calcium, phosphorus, and 25(OH) vitamin D (25OHD) levels. RESULTS Over 12-months, the surgical group lost 27.2% of body weight compared to 0.1% in the non-surgical (control) group. Groups did not differ for changes in 25OHD levels (p = 0.186). Compared to controls, the surgical group had reductions in femoral neck and total hip aBMD Z-scores (p ≤ 0.0006). At the distal tibia, compared to controls, the surgical group had reductions in cortical area and thickness and trabecular number, and increases in trabecular area and separation (p ≤ 0.026). At the distal radius, the surgical group had greater reductions in trabecular vBMD, than controls (p = 0.010). The surgical group had an increase in cortical vBMD at both sites (p ≤ 0.040), possibly from a decrease in cortical porosity (p ≤ 0.024). Most, but not all, differences were attenuated after adjusting for 12-month change in BMI. Groups did not differ for changes in strength estimates over time, except that increases in tibial stiffness were lower in the surgical group (p = 0.044) after adjusting for 12-month change in BMI. CONCLUSIONS Over 12 months, weight loss associated with sleeve gastrectomy in adolescents had negative effects on areal BMD and certain HRpQCT parameters. However, bone strength estimates remained stable, possibly because of a simultaneous decrease in cortical porosity and increase in cortical volumetric BMD. Additional research is necessary to determine the relative contribution(s) of weight loss and the metabolic effects of surgery on bone outcomes, and whether the observed effects on bone stabilize or progress over time.

Nutritional Risks in Adolescents After Bariatric Surgery. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2020; 18:1070-1081.e5.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Little is known about prevalence and risk factors for nutritional deficiencies in adolescents after metabolic bariatric surgery. We performed a 5-year prospective cohort study of these. METHODS Adolescents who had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB, n = 161) or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG, n = 67) were enrolled at 5 tertiary-care centers from March 2007 through February 2012. The final analysis cohort included 226 participants (161 who had RYGB and 65 who had VSG). We measured serum levels of ferritin; red blood cell folate; vitamins A, D, B1, B12; and parathyroid hormone at baseline and annually for 5 years. General linear mixed models were used to examine changes over time and identify factors associated with nutritional deficiencies. RESULTS The participants were 75% female and 72% white, with a mean age of 16.5 ± 1.6 years and mean body mass index of 52.7 ± 9.4 kg/m2 at surgery. Mean body mass index decreased 23% at 5 years, and did not differ significantly between procedures. After RYGB, but not VSG, serum concentrations of vitamin B12 significantly decreased whereas serum levels of transferrin and parathyroid hormone increased. Ferritin levels decreased significantly after both procedures. Hypo-ferritinemia was observed in 2.5% of patients before RYGB and 71% at 5 y after RYGB (P < .0001), and 11% of patients before VSG and 45% 5 y after VSG (P = .002). No significant changes in serum levels of folate or vitamins A, B1, or D were found between baseline and 5 y after either procedure. By 5 y, 59% of RYGB and 27% of VSG recipients had 2 or more nutritional deficiencies. Risk factors associated with specific deficiencies included surgery type, female sex, black race, supplementation intake, weight regain, and for females, pregnancy. CONCLUSIONS In a prospective study of adolescents who underwent RYGB or VSG, we observed nutritional deficiencies by 5 y after the procedures-particularly in iron and B12 after RYGB. Ongoing nutrient monitoring and supplementation are recommended for all patients, but surgery type, supplementation intake, sex, and race might affect risk.

Abstract
Obesity rates are increasing rapidly, and bariatric surgery is currently the most effective tool for weight loss. Recently, bariatric surgery induced bone loss has gained attention. Such detrimental effect on bone is multifactorial and causes may include nutrient deficiencies, gut and gonadal hormonal changes, mechanical unloading, loss of lean mass, increased bone marrow fat, and increased risk of fall. This review describes the available evidence on bone loss and fracture risk following bariatric surgery and summarizes the guidelines on the topic. Increased bone resorption starts early postsurgery, and bone markers peak at 1-2 yr. Across studies, the drop in areal bone mineral density is inconsistent at the lumbar spine, while a 2%-5% drop at 6 mo and a 6%-10.5% at 9-12 mo are observed at the total hip. Conversely, studies using quantitative CT showed a 6%-7% decrease in volumetric bone mineral density at the lumbar spine at 6-12 mo postsurgery. These studies also report significant bone loss at the radius and tibia, in addition to alteration in bone microarchitecture. Fracture risk increases 2 yr after surgery, more so following malabsorptive procedures. Fractures were reported at axial, weight bearing sites and at appendicular sites. The available evidence is very heterogeneous, and mostly derived from studies on Roux-en-y gastric bypass in premenopausal women. Data on restrictive procedures is scarce. Our findings suggest that the early postoperative phase represents the "golden window" to intervene and promote bone health. More research is needed to determine the effect of different bariatric procedures on bone, to identify optimal interventions to prevent bone loss and to characterize high risk individuals who should be targeted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The development of these updated clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) was commissioned by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE), The Obesity Society (TOS), American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS), Obesity Medicine Association (OMA), and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Boards of Directors in adherence with the AACE 2017 protocol for standardized production of CPGs, algorithms, and checklists. METHODS Each recommendation was evaluated and updated based on new evidence from 2013 to the present and subjective factors provided by experts. RESULTS New or updated topics in this CPG include: contextualization in an adiposity-based chronic disease complications-centric model, nuance-based and algorithm/checklist-assisted clinical decision-making about procedure selection, novel bariatric procedures, enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery protocols, and logistical concerns (including cost factors) in the current health care arena. There are 85 numbered recommendations that have updated supporting evidence, of which 61 are revised and 12 are new. Noting that there can be multiple recommendation statements within a single numbered recommendation, there are 31 (13%) Grade A, 42 (17%) Grade B, 72 (29%) Grade C, and 101 (41%) Grade D recommendations. There are 858 citations, of which 81 (9.4%) are evidence level (EL) 1 (highest), 562 (65.5%) are EL 2, 72 (8.4%) are EL 3, and 143 (16.7%) are EL 4 (lowest). CONCLUSIONS Bariatric procedures remain a safe and effective intervention for higher-risk patients with obesity. Clinical decision-making should be evidence based within the context of a chronic disease. A team approach to perioperative care is mandatory, with special attention to nutritional and metabolic issues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Roux-en-Y-gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an effective treatment for morbid obesity. A possible overlooked side effect is negative bone metabolic consequences. DESIGN A seven-year prospective study following ten women and seven men after RYGB (baseline mean age 43 ± 8 years, BMI 42 ± 6 kg/m2). METHODS Lumbar spine and total hip bone mineral density (BMD) using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, distal radius and tibia bone geometry, volumetric BMD, microarchitecture and finite element estimated bone strength using high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT and biochemical markers of bone remodelling were assessed at baseline, 2 and 7 years. RESULTS Compared to baseline, body weight was 24 ± 10% lower after 2 years and 21 ± 11% after 7 years. During the 7 years of follow-up, radius and tibia vBMD had declined 13 ± 8% and 8 ± 7% from baseline to 2 years and further 10 ± 7% and 7 ± 8% from 2 to 7 years (all P < 0.001). At both radius and tibia, cortical thickness declined and cortical porosity increased. From baseline to 7 years, there were clear indications of deteriorations of the trabecular network with fewer, more widely spaced and more in-homogeneously distributed trabeculae in both radius and tibia. Overall, declines in estimated bone strength of 16 ± 9% in radius and 16 ± 7% in tibia were observed (both P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Seven years after RYGB, evidence of continuous declines in BMD and ongoing deterioration of bone microarchitecture and reduced estimated bone strength compared to baseline and 2 years post-surgery results were found. These findings emphasize the need for regular assessment of bone health in patients with prior RYGB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight loss interventions for obesity, such as bariatric surgery, are associated with reductions in bone mineral density and may increase the risk of fractures. We undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis of bariatric surgery and lifestyle weight management programs (WMPs) with fracture outcomes. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from 1966 to 2018, and our trial registry of WMP randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We included RCTs, non-randomized trials, and observational studies of bariatric surgery, and RCTs of WMPs. Studies had follow-up ≥ 12 months, mean group body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2. The primary outcome measure was incidence of any type of fracture in participants, and the secondary outcome was weight change. We used random effects meta-analysis for trial data. RESULTS Fifteen studies were included. Three small trials provided short-term evidence of the association between bariatric surgery and participants with any fracture (365 participants; RR 0.82; 95% CI 0.29 to 2.35). Four out of six observational studies of bariatric surgery demonstrated significantly increased fracture risk. Six RCTs of WMPs with 6214 participants, the longest follow-up 11.3 years, showed no clear effect on any type of fracture (RR 1.04; 95% CI 0.91 to 1.18), although authors of the largest RCT reported an increased risk of frailty fracture by their definition (RR 1.40; 95% CI 1.04 to 1.90). CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery appears to increase the risk of any fracture; however, longer-term trial data are needed. The effect of lifestyle WMPs on the risk of any fracture is currently unclear.

Abstract
CONTEXT The gut hormones peptide YY (PYY) and ghrelin mediate in part the metabolic benefits of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. However, preclinical data suggest these hormones also affect the skeleton and could contribute to postoperative bone loss. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether changes in fasting serum total PYY and ghrelin were associated with bone turnover marker levels and loss of bone mineral density (BMD) after RYGB. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS Prospective cohort of adults undergoing RYGB (n=44) at San Francisco academic hospitals. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We analyzed 6-month changes in PYY, ghrelin, bone turnover markers, and BMD by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT). We calculated the uncoupling index (UI), reflecting the relative balance of bone resorption and formation. RESULTS Postoperatively, there was a trend for an increase in PYY (+25pg/mL, p=0.07) and a significant increase in ghrelin (+192pg/mL, p<0.01). PYY changes negatively correlated with changes in spine BMD by QCT (r=-0.36, p=0.02) and bone formation marker P1NP (r=-0.30, p=0.05). Relationships were significant after adjustments for age, sex, and weight loss. No consistent relationships were found between ghrelin and skeletal outcomes. Mean 6-month UI was -3.3; UI correlated with spine BMD loss by QCT (r=0.40, p=0.01). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative PYY increases were associated with attenuated increases in P1NP and greater declines in spine BMD by QCT. Uncoupling of bone turnover correlated with BMD loss. These findings suggest a role for PYY in loss of bone mass after RYGB and highlight the relationship between intestinal and skeletal metabolism.

Effectiveness of intramuscular ergocalciferol treatment in a patient with osteomalacia and insufficiency fractures due to severe vitamin D deficiency after bariatric surgery. JOURNAL OF MUSCULOSKELETAL & NEURONAL INTERACTIONS 2020; 20:291-296. [PMID: 32481245 PMCID: PMC7288392] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 10/30/2022]
Abstract
Vitamin D (vitD) deficiency and bone loss may occur after bariatric surgery and hence, supplementation with high oral doses of vitD may be required. Alternatively, intramuscular depot ergocalciferol, which slowly releases vitD and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract, could be administrated. We present a case of severe vitD deficiency-osteomalacia after gastric bypass operation for morbid obesity, treated with ergocalciferol intramuscularly. A 45-year-old woman was presented with hip pain and muscle weakness, which led ultimately to immobilization in a wheelchair. Fifteen years ago, she underwent roux-en-Y gastric by-pass for morbid obesity. Occasionally, she was treated with multivitamin supplements. On admission, iron deficiency anaemia, vitD deficiency (25OHD: 3.7 ng/ml) and secondary hyperparathyroidism were revealed. Bone turnover markers (BTM) were elevated. Radiological evaluation demonstrated insufficiency fractures on the pubic and left femur and reduced BMD. Osteomalacia due to vitD deficiency and calcium malabsorption were diagnosed. Calcium citrate 500 mg qid and intramuscular ergocalciferol 600,000 IU every 20 days were initiated. One month later, musculoskeletal pain and weakness were resolved and the patient was mobilized. Few months later, vitD, BTM and BMD showed substantial improvement. Intramuscular ergocalciferol administration can improve the clinical and biochemical status and thus, is suggested to prevent and/or treat osteomalacia in such patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are associated with an increased risk of skeletal fractures despite a normal areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and low bone turnover, possibly due to reduced bone material strength. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) enables a substantial and persistent weight loss and resolution of obesity related comorbidities such as T2D. However, the procedure induces a decrease in aBMD and increased bone turnover and fracture rate. To our knowledge, changes in bone material strength after RYGB have not been explored. This study aimed to evaluate changes in factors influencing bone quality; bone material strength, aBMD and bone turnover markers, in a population with morbid obesity undergoing RYGB and whether these changes differed in participants with and without T2D. We also sought to assess factors associated with bone material strength and bone mineral density in obese subjects before and after RYGB. METHODS We examined 34 participants before and one year after RYGB, of whom 13 had T2D. Bone material strength index (BMSi) was evaluated by impact microindentation, aBMD and body composition by Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, levels of bone turnover markers and calciotropic hormones were estimated from fasting serum samples. Participants with and without T2D were comparable before surgery, with the exception of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). RESULTS Preoperatively, BMSi was inversely associated with BMI, βunadjusted -1.1 (-1.9 to -0.28), R2=0.19, p=0.010, and this association remained significant after adjusting for age and gender. After RYGB the participants had lost a mean±SD of 33.9±10.9kg, 48.7±14.2 % of total body fat, increased physical activity, unchanged vitamin D levels, and all but one of the 13 participants with T2D were in diabetes remission. BMSi increased from 78.1±8.5 preoperatively to 82.0±6.4 one year after RYGB, corresponding to an increase of 4.0±9.8 in absolute units or 6.3±14.0 %, p=0.037. The increase was comparable in participants with and without T2D. In subjects with T2D, a larger decrease in HbA1c was associated with a larger increase in BMSi βunadjusted -9.2 (-16.5 to -1.9), R2=0.47, p=0.019. Bone turnover markers (CTX-1 and PINP) increased by 195.1±133.5 % and 109.5±70.6 %, respectively. aBMD decreased by 3.9±5.5 % in the lumbar spine, 8.2±4.6 % in the femoral neck, 11.6±4.9 % in total hip and 9.4±3.8 % in total body. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that bone material strength improves despite an increase in bone turnover and a decrease in aBMD one year after RYGB. Trends were statistically comparable in participants with and without T2D. However, improved glucose control was associated with improved bone material strength in participants with T2D.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article summarizes recent literature concerning vitamin deficiency and required supplementation post-bariatric surgery, focusing on vitamin D (and associated clinical adverse effect on bone loss) and on the potential implication of the gut microbiota. RECENT FINDINGS Bariatric surgery induces weight loss and metabolic improvements yet with major inter-individual variability. If it is efficient in most patients, some display poor response (i.e. patients with the lowest weight loss at 1 year or weight regain afterwards, or patients without metabolic disease remission). Despite systematic vitamin supplementation, some patients develop vitamin deficiencies leading to poor clinical outcomes, among which vitamin D deficiency associated with observed bone mass loss and fractures. Recent mechanistic studies led to understand better the involved physiopathology. Furthermore, different intervention studies tested on top of bariatric surgery (using vitamin, diet, or nutrients acting as functional food) have evaluated whether nutritional adverse outcomes could be improved. Importantly, gut microbiota involved in food digestion and metabolization and vitamin synthesis is largely perturbed during severe obesity and is partially restored post-surgery, yet again with large interindividual variability. Whether differential gut microbiota modification could be associated with vitamin deficiencies is an open question. SUMMARY Future clinical research studies will need to evaluate whether add-on intervention to bariatric surgery using vitamin, diet, or specific food items could help prevent nutritional deficiencies and improve clinical response observed post-surgery. Importantly, personalizing the add-on intervention post-surgery upon gut microbiota composition should be tested in predicted poor-responders to surgery as already performed during diet intervention to further improve metabolic health.
