Abstract
Obesity has been long recognized as a risk factor for the development of heart failure, but recent evidence suggests obesity is more typically associated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction as opposed to heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Nevertheless, numerous studies have found that obesity modulates the presentation and progression of HFrEF and may contribute to the development of HFrEF in some patients. Although obesity has definite negative effects in HFrEF patients, the effects of intentional weight loss in HFrEF patients with obesity have been poorly studied.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally and is closely associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This review examines the interplay between obesity, T2DM, and CVD, highlighting the increasing prevalence and economic burden of these conditions. RECENT FINDINGS Pharmacologic therapies, particularly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, show promise in substantial weight loss and subsequent reduction of adverse cardiovascular events in obese individuals with and without diabetes. Obesity significantly contributes to the development of insulin resistance and T2DM, further escalating CVD risk. The common co-occurrence of these three conditions may involve several other pathophysiological mechanisms, such as chronic inflammation, increased visceral adiposity, and endothelial dysfunction. Until recently, lifestyle modifications and bariatric surgery had been the primary methods for weight loss and mitigating obesity-associated cardiovascular risk. Newer pharmacological options have led to a paradigm shift in our approach to obesity management as they provide substantial benefits in weight loss, glycemic control, and cardiovascular risk reduction.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the most recent clinical trials and data regarding epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with an emphasis on the recent trends in cardiometabolic interventions. RECENT FINDINGS Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction makes up approximately half of overall heart failure and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and overall burden on the healthcare system. It is a complex, heterogenous syndrome and clinical trials, to this point, have not revealed quite as many effective treatment options when compared to heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Nevertheless, there is an expanding amount of data insight into the pathogenesis of this disease and the potential for newer therapies and management strategies. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction pathology has been found to be linked to abnormal energetics, myocyte hypertrophy, cell signaling, inflammation, ischemia, and fibrosis. These mechanisms also intricately overlap with the significant comorbidities often associated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction including, but not limited to, atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, obesity and coronary artery disease. Treatment of this disease, therefore, should focus on the management and strict regulation of these comorbidities by pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic means. In this review, a clinical update is provided reviewing the most recent clinical trials and data regarding epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with an emphasis on the recent trend in cardiometabolic interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) not only leads to a durable weight loss but also lowers mortality, and reduces cardiovascular risks. OBJECTIVES The current study aims to investigate the association of bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) with admissions for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), including ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), as well as, coronary revascularization procedures, including percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), and thrombolysis. SETTING The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. METHODS The NIS data from 2016 to 2020 were analyzed. A propensity score matching in a 1:1 ratio was performed to match patients with history of MBS with non-MBS group. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-three thousand seven hundred twenty-nine patients from the non-MBS group were matched with 233,729 patients with history of MBS. The MBS group had about 52% reduced odds of admission for AMI compared to the non-MBS group (adjusted odd ratio: .477, 95% confidence interval: .454-.502, P value <.001). In addition, the odds of STEMI and NSEMI were significantly lower in the MBS group in comparison to the non-MBS group. Also, the MBS group had significantly lower odds of CABG, PCI, and thrombolysis compared to the non-MBS group. In addition, in patients with AMI, MBS was associated with lower in-hospital mortality (adjusted odd ratio: .627, 95% confidence interval: .469-.839, P value = .004), length of hospital stays, and total charges. CONCLUSIONS History of MBS is significantly associated with reduced risk of admission for AMI including STEMI and NSTEMI, as well as the, need for coronary revascularization such as PCI and CABG.

Abstract
The beneficial impacts of metabolic surgery (MS) on patients with heart failure (HF) are incompletely characterized. We aimed to describe the cardiac and metabolic effects of MS in patients with HF and hypothesized that patients with HF would experience both improved metabolic and HF profiles using glycemic control and diuretic dependency as surrogate markers. In this single-center, university-affiliated academic study in the United States, a review of 2,342 hospital records of patients who underwent MS (2017 to 2023) identified 63 patients with a medical history of HF. Preoperative characteristics, 30-day outcomes, and up to 2-year biometric and metabolic outcomes, medication usage, and emergency department utilization were collected. At 24 months, mean body mass index change was -16 kg/m2 (p <0.001) that corresponded to a mean percentage total body weight loss of 29% (p <0.001). Weight loss was accompanied by significant reductions in hemoglobin A1c (p <0.001) and a 65% decrease in diuretic use at 24 months after surgery (p <0.001). Similarly, emergency visits for cardiac conditions (p = 0.06) and intravenous diuresis (p = 0.07) trended favorably at 1 year after surgery compared with 1 year before surgery but were not statistically significant. In conclusion, in patients with HF who were carefully selected, MS appears to provide significant reduction in oral diuretic dependency, and metabolic improvements with trends toward lower rates of emergency department utilization.

Abstract
The global prevalence of obesity has risen sharply during the past half-century, reaching pandemic proportions and creating a public health crisis. Obesity is a recognized risk factor for the development of diabetes, atherosclerosis, hypertension, hepatic steatosis, and many other cardiometabolic disorders with significant resultant morbidity and mortality. Though treatment of obesity can prevent or slow the progression of the aforementioned illnesses, efforts to help patients achieve reliable and sustainable weight loss have had limited success. Improving nutrition and increasing physical activity results in a host of health benefits; however, the weight loss achieved with lifestyle interventions alone is modest and difficult to sustain. Early attempts at medical and surgical treatment of obesity were plagued with adverse effects and complications. Moreover, these approaches failed to demonstrate long-term health benefits, even when weight loss was achieved. Recently, novel incretin-based therapies targeting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors have gained popularity because of their effectiveness in achieving substantial weight loss in patients both with and without diabetes. Following many successful clinical trials, there are now multiple GLP-1 receptor agonists and one dual GLP-1-GIP receptor agonist approved by the Food and Drug Administration for chronic weight management. Advancements in laparoscopic surgical technique and refinements in procedure selection have similarly improved the safety and efficacy of bariatric metabolic surgery for patients with obesity. In this review, we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of contemporary pharmacologic and surgical weight management strategies. We review the data regarding expected weight loss, glycemic control, cardiometabolic benefits, and potential adverse effects of various treatment approaches. As obesity rates continue to rise worldwide, it is imperative that clinicians keep these considerations in mind in order to better care for patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies have reported strongly protective effects of bariatric surgery on cardiovascular disease, but with oversimplified definitions of the intervention, eligibility criteria, and follow-up, which deviate from those in a randomized trial. We describe an attempt to estimate the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiovascular disease without introducing these sources of bias, which may not be entirely possible with existing observational data. METHODS We propose two target trials among persons with diabetes: (1) bariatric operation (vs. no operation) among individuals who have undergone preoperative preparation (lifestyle modifications and screening) and (2) preoperative preparation and a bariatric operation (vs. neither preoperative nor operative component). We emulated both target trials using observational data of US veterans. RESULTS Comparing bariatric surgery with no surgery (target trial #1; 8,087 individuals), the 7-year cardiovascular risk was 18.0% (95% CI = 6.9, 32.7) in the surgery group and 18.9% (95% CI = 17.7, 20.1) in the no-surgery group (risk difference -0.9, 95% CI = -12.0, 14.0). Comparing preoperative components plus surgery vs. neither (target trial #2; 10,065 individuals), the 7-year cardiovascular risk was 17.4% (95% CI = 13.6, 22.0) in the surgery group and 18.8% (95% CI = 17.8, 19.9) in the no-surgery group (risk difference -1.4, 95% CI = -5.1, 3.2). Body mass index and hemoglobin A1c were reduced with bariatric interventions in both emulations. CONCLUSIONS Within limitations of available observational data, our estimates do not provide evidence that bariatric surgery reduces cardiovascular disease and support equipoise for a randomized trial of bariatric surgery for cardiovascular disease prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the increasing prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes, the availability of different treatment options remains essential. Studies comparing the outcomes of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists with those of metabolic bariatric surgery in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity are lacking. METHODS Using propensity score matching, based on data from several nationwide clinical registries, patients who underwent primary metabolic bariatric surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy) were matched with patients who received glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists. Outcome measures included the occurrence of major cardiovascular events, microvascular complications, and potential side effects (alcohol/substance abuse, self-harm, and fractures). RESULTS Over a mean follow-up of 7 years, major cardiovascular events occurred in 191 of 2039 patients (cumulative incidence 14.5%) in the surgery group compared with 247 of 2039 patients (19.6%) in the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist group (HR 0.75 (95% c.i. 0.62 to 0.91), P = 0.003). Patients in the surgery group had lower haemoglobin A1c values 5 years after treatment (mean difference 9.82 (95% c.i. 8.51 to 11.14) mmol/mol, P < 0.001) and fewer microvascular complications (retinopathy HR 0.88 (95% c.i. 0.79 to 0.99), P = 0.039; nephropathy HR 0.72 (95% c.i. 0.66 to 0.80), P < 0.001; and neuropathy or leg ulcers HR 0.82 (95% c.i. 0.74 to 0.92), P < 0.001), but a higher risk of alcohol/substance abuse (HR 2.56 (95% c.i. 1.87 to 3.50), P < 0.001), self-harm (HR 1.41 (95% c.i. 1.17 to 1.71), P < 0.001), and fractures (HR 1.86 (95% c.i. 1.11 to 3.12), P = 0.019). CONCLUSION Compared with glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist treatment, metabolic bariatric surgery is associated with superior metabolic outcomes and a lower risk of major cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity, but a higher risk of alcohol/substance abuse, self-harm, and fractures.

Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for nearly half of all heart failure cases and has a prevalence that is expected to rise with the growing ageing population. HFpEF is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Specific HFpEF risk factors include age, diabetes, hypertension, obesity and atrial fibrillation. Haemodynamic contributions to HFpEF include changes in left ventricular structure, diastolic and systolic dysfunction, left atrial myopathy, pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular dysfunction, chronotropic incompetence, and vascular dysfunction. Inflammation, fibrosis, impaired nitric oxide signalling, sarcomere dysfunction, and mitochondrial and metabolic defects contribute to the cellular and molecular changes observed in HFpEF. HFpEF impacts multiple organ systems beyond the heart, including the skeletal muscle, peripheral vasculature, lungs, kidneys and brain. The diagnosis of HFpEF can be made in individuals with signs and symptoms of heart failure with abnormality in natriuretic peptide levels or evidence of cardiopulmonary congestion, facilitated by the use of HFpEF risk scores and additional imaging and testing with the exclusion of HFpEF mimics. Management includes initiation of guideline-directed medical therapy and management of comorbidities. Given the significant impact of HFpEF on quality of life, future research efforts should include a particular focus on how patients can live better with this disease.

Abstract
Individuals with excessive adipose tissue and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) face a heightened risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Metabolic surgery is an effective therapy for people with severe obesity to achieve significant weight loss. Additionally, metabolic surgery improves blood glucose levels and can lead to T2DM remission, reducing major adverse cardiovascular outcomes (MACE). Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are a class of medication that effectively reduce body weight and MACE in patients with T2DM. This review explores the potential mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective benefits of metabolic surgery and GLP-1RA-based therapies and discusses recent evidence and emerging therapies in this dynamic area of research.

Validation of the Individualized Metabolic Surgery score in predicting long-term remission of diabetes after duodenal switch-type procedures. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:3200-3206. [PMID: 38725101 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15647] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 04/13/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
AIM To validate the Individualized Metabolic Surgery (IMS) score and assess long-term remission of type 2 diabetes (T2D) after duodenal switch (DS)-type procedures in patients with obesity. In addition, to help guide metabolic procedure selection for those patients categorized as having severe T2D. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective single cohort study of all patients with T2D and severe obesity, who underwent DS-type procedures at a single institution from December 2010 to December 2018. Study endpoints included validating the IMS score in our cohort and evaluating the impact of DS-type procedures on long-term (≥ 5 years) remission of T2D, especially in patients with severe disease. A receiver operator characteristic curve was used to assess the accuracy of the IMS score using the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS The study cohort included 30 patients with complete baseline and long-term glycaemic data after their index DS-type surgery. Twelve patients (40%) were classified with severe T2D, and the distribution of IMS-based severity groups was similar between our cohort and the original IMS study (P = .42). IMS scores predicted long-term T2D remission with AUC = 0.77. Patients with IMS-based severe diabetes achieved significantly higher long-term remission after DS-type procedures compared with gastric bypass and/or sleeve gastrectomy from the original IMS study (42% vs. 12%; P < .05). CONCLUSIONS The IMS score properly classifies the severity of T2D in our study cohort and adequately predicts its long-term remission after DS-type procedures. While T2D remission decreases with more severe IMS scores, long-term remission remains high after DS-type procedures among patients with severe disease.

Abstract
Background An international panel of obesity medicine experts from multiple professional organizations examined patterns of obesity care and current obesity treatment guidelines to identify areas requiring updating in response to emerging science and clinical evidence. Aims The panel focused on multiple medical health and societal issues influencing effective treatment of obesity and identified several unmet needs in the definition, assessment, and care of obesity. Methods The panel was held in Leesburg, Virginia in September 2019. Results The panelists recommended addressing these unmet needs in obesity medicine through research, education, evaluation of delivery and payment of care, and updating clinical practice guidelines (CPG) to better reflect obesity's pathophysiological basis and heterogeneity, as well as the disease's health, sociocultural, and economic complications; effects on quality of life; need for standards for quantitative comparison of treatment benefits, risks, and costs; and the need to more effectively integrate obesity treatment guidelines into routine clinical practice and to facilitate more direct clinician participation to improve public understanding of obesity as a disease with a pathophysiological basis. The panel also recommended that professional organizations working to improve the care of people with obesity collaborate via a working group to develop an updated, patient-focused, comprehensive CPG establishing standards of care, addressing identified needs, and providing for routine, periodic review and updating. Conclusions Unmet needs in the definition, assessment and treatment of obesity were identified and a blueprint to address these needs developed via a clinical practice guideline that can be utilized worldwide to respond to the increasing prevalence of obesity.

Abstract
Background Obesity is a global health crisis with profound implications on various body systems, contributing to a series of comorbidities. Metabolic Bariatric Surgery (MBS) has emerged as an effective treatment option for severe obesity, with significant weight reduction and potential systemic physiological alterations. Objectives This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the long-term effects of MBS on a wide array of body systems, including the heart, liver, kidneys, reproductive system, skin, lungs, digestive tract, pancreas, and blood, as well as related cancers of these organs. Methods A systematic search was conducted in academic databases (PubMed, ISI Web of Science, and Scopus) for observational studies and reviews published between July 2000 and December 2023, investigating the association between MBS and the subsequent function of different organ systems. High-quality studies were prioritized to ensure reliable evidence synthesis. Results MBS has demonstrated favorable outcomes in reducing cardiovascular disease risk, improving cardiac function, and alleviating heart failure symptoms. It has also been associated with improved respiratory function, remission of obstructive sleep apnea, and reduced cancer incidence and mortality. Additionally, MBS has shown benefits in managing gastrointestinal disorders, enhancing glycemic control, and promoting pancreatic beta-cell regeneration in type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, some methods of MBS are associated with a higher risk of cholelithiasis, GERD, and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. Conclusion MBS has far-reaching systemic effects beyond weight loss, offering potential long-term benefits for various organ systems and comorbidities associated with obesity. For many patients with severe obesity, the potential benefits of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (MBS) can outweigh the associated risks. However, careful evaluation by a qualified healthcare professional is crucial to determine candidacy and ensure a successful outcome. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the long-term impacts and tailor personalized treatment approaches.

Abstract
AIM Non-randomized studies on bariatric surgery have reported large reductions in mortality within 6-12 months after surgery compared with non-surgical patients. It is unclear whether these findings are the result of bias. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING We searched PubMed to identify all non-randomized studies investigating the effect of bariatric surgery on all-cause mortality compared with non-surgical patients. We assessed these studies for potential confounding and time-related biases. We conducted bias analyses to quantify the effect of these biases. RESULTS We identified 21 cohort studies that met our inclusion criteria. Among those, 11 were affected by immortal time bias resulting from the misclassification or exclusion of relevant follow-up time. Five studies were subject to potential confounding bias because of a lack of adjustment for body mass index (BMI). All studies used an inadequate comparator group that lacked indications for bariatric surgery. Bias analyses to correct for potential confounding from BMI shifted the effect estimates towards the null [reported hazard ratio (HR): 0.78 vs. bias-adjusted HR: 0.92]. Bias analyses to correct for the presence of immortal time also shifted the effect estimates towards the null (adjustment for 2-year wait time: reported HR: 0.57 vs. bias-adjusted HR: 0.81). CONCLUSION Several important sources of bias were identified in non-randomized studies of the effectiveness of bariatric surgery versus non-surgical comparators on mortality. Future studies should ensure that confounding by BMI is accounted for, considering the choice of the comparator group, and that the design or analysis avoids immortal time bias from the misclassification or exclusion.

Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2024; 40:e3830. [PMID: 38873748 DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.3830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
Metabolic/bariatric surgery as a treatment for obesity and related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), has been increasingly recognised in recent years. However, compared with conventional pharmacologic therapy, the long-term effect (≥ 5 years) of metabolic surgery in T2DM patients is still unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the diabetes remission rate, incidence of diabetic microvascular complications, incidence of macrovascular complications, and mortality in T2DM patients who received metabolic surgery versus pharmacologic therapy more than 5 years after the surgery. Searching the database, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library from the inception to recent (2024), for randomised clinical trials (RCTs) or cohort studies comparing T2DM patients treated with metabolic surgery versus pharmacologic therapy reporting on the outcomes of the diabetes remission rate, diabetic microvascular complications, macrovascular complications, or mortality over 5 years or more. A total of 15 articles with a total of 85,473 patients with T2DM were eligible for review and meta-analysis in this study. There is a significant long-term increase in diabetes remission for metabolic surgery compared with conventional medical therapy in the overall pooled estimation and RCT studies or cohort studies separately (overall: OR = 4.58, 95% CI: 1.89-11.07, P < 0.001). Significant long-term decreases were found in the pooled results of microvascular complications incidence (HR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.41-0.78, P < 0.001), macrovascular complications incidence (HR = 0.59, 95% CI: 0.50-0.70, P < 0.001) and mortality (HR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.53-0.79, P = 0.0018). Metabolic surgery showed more significant long-term effects than pharmacologic therapy on diabetes remission, macrovascular complications, microvascular complications incidence, and all-cause mortality in patients with T2DM using currently available evidence. More high-quality evidence is needed to validate the long-term effects of metabolic surgery versus conventional treatment in diabetes management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the test-retest reliability in lower limb muscle strength and rate of torque development (RTD) using isokinetic dynamometry in adults with obesity, with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m2. METHOD Thirty-two adults with a BMI of 43.8 ± 6.6 kg/m2 eligible for bariatric surgery were enroled in the study. Isokinetic and isometric knee extensor (KE) and flexor (KF) strength were assessed in an isokinetic dynamometer (Biodex 4) during three test sessions separated by 3-7 days. RESULTS There were no statistical differences in peak KE and KF torque for any test modalities between sessions. Intraclass correlation (ICC) was 0.91-0.94 between sessions 1 and 2 and 0.94-0.97 between sessions 2 and 3. Standard error of measurement (SEM%) and coefficient of variation (CV) ranged across test sessions from 4.3% to 7.3%. KE RTD showed high test-retest reliability following familiarization, with ICC, CV and SEM% values ranging from 0.84 to 0.90, 13.3%-20.3% and 14.6%-24.9%, respectively. CONCLUSION Maximal lower limb muscle strength measured by isokinetic dynamometry showed excellent test-retest reliability manifested by small measurement errors and low CV. Reliability was slightly improved by including a familiarization session. KE RTD but not KF RTD demonstrated high test-retest reliability following familiarization. The present data indicate that isokinetic dynamometry can be used to detect even small changes in lower limb muscle strength in adults with obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No therapy has been shown to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and death in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OBJECTIVES The authors sought to investigate the long-term relationship between metabolic surgery and incident MACE in patients with OSA and obesity. METHODS Adult patients with a body mass index 35 to 70 kg/m2 and moderate-to-severe OSA at a U.S. health system (2004-2018) were identified. Baseline characteristics of patients who underwent metabolic surgery were balanced with a nonsurgical control group using overlap-weighting methods. Multivariable Cox regression analysis estimated time-to-incident MACE. Follow-up ended in September 2022. RESULTS A total of 13,657 patients (7,496 [54.9%] men; mean age 52.0 ± 12.4 years; median body mass index 41.0 kg/m2 [Q1-Q3: 37.6-46.2 kg/m2]), including 970 patients in the metabolic surgery group and 12,687 patients in the nonsurgical group, with a median follow-up of 5.3 years (Q1-Q3: 3.1-8.4 years) were analyzed. The mean between-group difference in body weight at 10 years was 26.6 kg (95% CI: 25.6-27.6 kg) or 19.3% (95% CI: 18.6%-19.9%). The 10-year cumulative incidence of MACE was 27.0% (95% CI: 21.6%-32.0%) in the metabolic surgery group and 35.6% (95% CI: 33.8%-37.4%) in the nonsurgical group (adjusted HR: 0.58 [95% CI: 0.48-0.71]; P < 0.001). The 10-year cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was 9.1% (95% CI: 5.7%-12.4%) in the metabolic surgery group and 12.5% (95% CI: 11.2%-13.8%) in the nonsurgical group (adjusted HR: 0.63 [95% CI: 0.45-0.89]; P = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with moderate-to-severe OSA and obesity, metabolic surgery, compared with nonsurgical management, was associated with a significantly lower risk of incident MACE and death.

Abstract
For adults with advanced heart failure, class II/III obesity (body mass index ≥35 kg/m2) represents major challenges, and it is even considered a contraindication for heart transplantation (HT) at many centers. This has led to growing interest in preventing and treating obesity to help patients with advanced heart failure become HT candidates. Among all weight-loss strategies, bariatric surgery (BSx) has the greatest weight loss efficacy and has shown value in enabling select patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) and obesity to lose sufficient weight to access HT. Nevertheless, both BSx and antiobesity medications warrant caution in the LVAD population. In this review, the authors describe and interpret the available published reports on the impact of obesity and weight-loss strategies for patients with LVADs from general and HT candidacy standpoints. The authors also provide an overview of the journey of LVAD recipients who undergo BSx and review major aspects of perioperative protocols.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a highly heterogeneous syndrome, making it challenging to improve prognosis with pharmacotherapy. Obesity is one of the leading phenotypes of HFpEF, and its prevalence continues to grow worldwide. Consequently, obesity-targeted interventions have attracted attention as a novel treatment strategy for HFpEF. AREAS COVERED The authors review the association between the pathogenesis of obesity and HFpEF and the potential for obesity-targeted pharmacotherapeutic strategies in HFpEF, together with the latest evidence. The literature search was conducted in PubMed up to April 2024. EXPERT OPINION The STEP HFpEF (Semaglutide Treatment Effect in People with obesity and HFpEF) and SELECT (Semaglutide Effects on Cardiovascular Outcomes in People with Overweight or Obesity) trials recently demonstrated that the glucagon-like peptide 1 analogue, semaglutide, improves various aspects of clinical outcomes in obese HFpEF patients and significantly reduces cardiovascular and heart failure events in non-diabetic obese patients, along with a substantial weight loss. Future clinical trials with other incretin mimetics with more potent weight loss and sub-analyses of the SELECT trial may further emphasize the importance of the obesity phenotype-based approach in the treatment of HFpEF.

Abstract
This joint ASGE-ESGE guideline provides an evidence-based summary and recommendations regarding the role of endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) in the management of obesity. The document was developed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework. It evaluates the efficacy and safety of EBMT devices and procedures that currently have CE mark or FDA-clearance/approval, or that had been approved within five years of document development. The guideline suggests the use of EBMTs plus lifestyle modification in patients with a BMI of ≥ 30 kg/m2, or with a BMI of 27.0-29.9 kg/m2 with at least 1 obesity-related comorbidity. Furthermore, it suggests the utilization of intragastric balloons and devices for endoscopic gastric remodeling (EGR) in conjunction with lifestyle modification for this patient population.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW What is new? Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes (T2D) individuals. Of the major risk factors for CVD, less than 10% of T2D people meet the American Diabetes Association/American Heart Association recommended goals of therapy. The present review examines how much of the absolute cardiovascular (CV) risk in type 2 diabetes patients can be explained by major CV intervention trials. RECENT FINDINGS Multiple long-term cardiovascular (CV) intervention trials have examined the effect of specific target-directed therapies on the MACE endpoint. Only one prospective study, STENO-2, has employed a multifactorial intervention comparing intensified versus conventional treatment of modifiable risk factors in T2D patients, and demonstrated a 20% absolute CV risk reduction. If the absolute CV risk reduction in these trials is added to that in the only prospective multifactorial intervention trial (STENO-2), the unexplained CV risk is 44.1%. What are the clinical implications? Potential explanations for the unaccounted-for reduction in absolute CV risk in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients are discussed. HYPOTHESIS failure to take into account synergistic interactions between major cardiovascular risk factors is responsible for the unexplained CV risk in T2D patients. Simultaneous treatment of all major CV risk factors to recommended AHA/ADA guideline goals is required to achieve the maximum reduction in CV risk.

Abstract
The metabolic syndrome, characterized by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, collectively increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prominent manifestation, affecting over a third of the global population with a concerning annual increase in prevalence. Nearly 70 % of overweight individuals have NAFLD, and NAFLD-related deaths are predicted to rise, especially among young adults. The association of T2DM and NAFLD has led to the proposal of "metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease" (MASLD) terminology, encompassing individuals with T2DM, overweight/obesity, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, or low HDL-cholesterol. Patients with MASLD will likely have double the risk of developing T2DM, and the combination of insulin resistance, overweight/obesity, and MASLD significantly elevates the risk of T2DM. Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of mortality in the MASLD and T2DM population, with MASLD directly associated with coronary artery disease, compounded by coexisting insulin resistance and T2DM. Urgency lies in early detection of subclinical cardiovascular diseases among patients with T2DM and MASLD. Novel strategies targeting multiple pathways offer hope for effectively improving cardiometabolic health. Understanding and addressing the intertwined factors contributing to these disorders can pave the way towards better management and prevention of cardiometabolic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controversy regarding the timing of pregnancy and its implications is present in the literature. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the midterm outcome of weight loss in women who have undergone laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) followed by pregnancy at two different times. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 53 women who matched the inclusion criteria and included them in the analysis. Demographics and anthropometric measurements were collected. Women who conceived within 12 months of LSG were labeled as early group (EG), and who conceived after 12 months were noted as late group (LG). RESULTS There were no differences between the groups regarding obesity-associated disease and number of pregnancies before. EG had higher weight (P = 0.0001) and body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.002) at LSG. The mean interval time for EG was 6.7 ± 3.2 months, and LG was 20 ± 5.2 months. Gestational weight gain (GWG) was lower in the EG (P = 0.001). There were no differences in the number of small for gestational age (SGA) births or gestational weight. In the first 2 years after LSG, LG had a higher percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and percentage of body mass index loss (%EBMIL) (P < 0.0001). After 5 years of follow-up, %TWL (P = 0.4) and %EBMIL (P = 0.1) were not statistically significant between both groups. CONCLUSION Conception within 12 months from LSG might hinder the weight loss process in the short term but have no significant effect over 5 years of follow-up.

Abstract
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is the most common form of chronic liver disease. It exists as either simple steatosis or its more progressive form, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), formerly, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The global prevalence of MASLD is estimated to be 32% among adults and is projected to continue to rise with increasing rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. While simple steatosis is often considered benign and reversible, MASH is progressive, potentially leading to the development of cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Treatment of MASH is therefore directed at slowing, stopping, or reversing the progression of disease. Evidence points to improved liver histology with therapies that result in sustained body weight reduction. Incretin-based molecules, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), alone or in combination with glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and/or glucagon receptor agonists, have shown benefit here, and several are under investigation for MASLD/MASH treatment. In this review, we discuss current published data on GLP-1, GIP/GLP-1, GLP-1/glucagon, and GLP-1/GIP/glucagon RAs in MASLD/MASH, focusing on their efficacy on liver histology, liver fat, and MASH biomarkers.

Obes Surg 2024; 34:1590-1599. [PMID: 38478194 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-024-07156-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is a widely used and effective treatment for patients with obesity and comorbid metabolic abnormalities. No specialized tool is available to predict metabolic syndrome (MS) remission after SG. We presented a nomogram that evaluated the probability of MS remission in obese patients 1 year after SG. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with preoperative MS who underwent SG were enrolled in this retrospective study. They were divided into a training set and a validation set. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of MS remission, and these predictors were included in the nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate discrimination. Calibration was performed with the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test. The net benefits of the nomogram were evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS Three hundred and eighteen patients with a median age of 34.0 years were analyzed. A training set and a validation set with 159 individuals each were established. A combination of age, preoperative high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, elevated triglycerides and glycated hemoglobin level independently and accurately predicted MS remission. The nomogram included these factors. The discriminative ability was moderate in training and validation sets (Area under curve 0.800 and 0.727, respectively). The Hosmer-Lemeshow X2 value of the nomogram was 8.477 (P = 0.388) for the training set and 5.361 (P = 0.718) for the validation set, indicating good calibration. DCA showed the nomogram had clinical benefits in both datasets. CONCLUSION Our nomogram could accurately predict MS remission in Chinese patients with obesity 1 year after SG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio are recognized as simple non-insulin-based insulin resistance indices. Our study aimed to explore the relationship between these two indicators and heart failure (HF) in overweight or obesity individuals without diabetes. METHODS This cross-sectional study selected 13,473 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001-2018 dataset. Weighted multivariable logistic regression and subgroup analysis were employed to evaluate the relationships between TyG index, TG/HDL-C ratio, and HF prevalence, respectively. Additionally, smooth curve fitting was utilized to analyze the dose-response relationships. RESULTS A total of 13,473 obesity or overweight people without diabetes were included in this study through screening, among whom 291 (2.16%) had comorbid HF. The results of multivariable logistic regression suggested that the highest TyG index (OR = 2.4, 95% CI = 1.4-4.2, p = 0.002) and the highest TG/HDL-C ratio (OR = 1.2, 95% CI = 1.1-1.3, p < 0.001) both increased the prevalence of HF, especially in the non-Hispanic population. Dose-response relationships suggested nonlinear relationships between these two indicators and HF. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that elevated TyG index and TG/HDL-C ratio were closely associated with the prevalence of HF, and both exhibited nonlinear relationships with HF prevalence in overweight/obesity adults without diabetes. Based on these findings, additional prospective studies are needed for further validation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bariatric surgery the reduces risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes in individuals with obesity, but it is unclear whether the benefit varies by sex, age, or socioeconomic status. The aim was to assess the risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes after metabolic bariatric surgery in these subgroups. METHODS The Finnish Public Sector study, a follow-up study with matched controls nested in a large employee cohort, included patients without type 2 diabetes and with a diagnosis of obesity or self-reported BMI of at least 35 kg/m2. For each patient who had laparoscopic metabolic bariatric surgery (2008-2016), two propensity-score matched controls were selected. New-onset type 2 diabetes was ascertained from linked records from national health registries. RESULTS The study included a total of 917 patients and 1811 matched controls with obesity. New-onset type 2 diabetes was diagnosed in 15 of the patients who had metabolic bariatric surgery (4.1 per 1000 person-years) and 164 controls (20.2 per 1000 person-years). The corresponding rate ratio (RR) was 0.20 (95% c.i. 0.12 to 0.35) and the rate difference (RD) was -16.1 (-19.8 to -12.3) per 1000 person-years. The risk reduction was more marked in individuals of low socioeconomic status (RR 0.10 (0.04 to 0.26) and RD -20.6 (-25.6 to -15.5) per 1000 person-years) than in those with higher socioeconomic status (RR 0.35 (0.18 to 0.66) and RD -11.5 (-16.9 to -6.0) per 1000 person-years) (Pinteraction = 0.017). No differences were observed between sexes or age groups. CONCLUSION Metabolic bariatric surgery was associated with a reduced risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes in men and women and in all age groups. The greatest benefit was observed in individuals of low socioeconomic status.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic and relapsing disease characterized by the interaction between individual predispositions and an obesogenic environment. Recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of energetic homoeostasis paved the way to more effective therapeutic approaches compared with traditional treatments. Since obesity is a complex disease, it necessitates a multi-disciplinary approach whose implementation remains challenging. Nonetheless, emerging pharmacological interventions appear promising. Currently, therapeutic success is discreet in the short term but often fails to maintain long-term weight loss due to a high likelihood of weight regain. Cardiologists play a key role in managing patients with obesity, yet often lack familiarity with its comprehensive management. The aim of this document is to summarize knowledge to consolidate essential knowledge for clinicians to effectively treat patients living with obesity. The paper emphasizes the pivotal role of a strong patient-clinician relationship in navigating successful treatment. We analyse the criteria commonly used to diagnose obesity and point out the strengths and limitations of different criteria. Furthermore, we discuss the role of obesiologists and the contributions of cardiologists. In addition, we detail key components of effective therapeutic strategies, including educational aspects and pharmacological options.

Abstract
After bariatric surgery, patients with obesity achieve sustainable weight loss, gain in mobility, quality of life and life expectancy. Bariatric surgery can lead to remission of type 2 diabetes or to long term glycaemic control for patients with type 2 diabetes, while medical treatment has a preventive efficacy on micro and macrovascular complications. This has led to the concept of metabolic surgery to treat type 2 diabetes. Despite the benefits, only a small proportion of eligible patients undergo bariatric/metabolic surgery. Powerful antidiabetic medications, self-estimated lack of knowledge by medical professionals and fear of surgical complications are some of the arguments to prefer medical treatment of type 2 diabetes obesity versus metabolic surgery. We have reviewed in this paper the barriers which explain the low referral rate to metabolic surgery. With the point of view of the diabetologist, the general practitioner and the patient, we have addressed them to help clinicians and patients model an evidenced-based patient-oriented medical plan.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease associated with serious complications and increased mortality. Weight loss (WL) through lifestyle changes results in modest WL long-term possibly due to compensatory biological adaptations (increased appetite and reduced energy expenditure) promoting weight gain. Bariatric surgery was until recently the only intervention that consistently resulted in ≥ 15% WL and maintenance. Our better understanding of the endocrine regulation of appetite has led to the development of new medications over the last decade for the treatment of obesity with main target the reduction of appetite. The efficacy of semaglutide 2.4 mg/week-the latest glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogue-on WL for people with obesity suggests that we are entering a new era in obesity pharmacotherapy where ≥15% WL is feasible. Moreover, the WL achieved with the dual agonist tirzepatide (GLP-1/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) for people with type 2 diabetes and most recently also obesity, indicate that combining the GLP-1 with other gut hormones may lead to additional WL compared with GLP-1 receptor analogues alone and in the future, multi-agonist molecules may offer the potential to bridge further the efficacy gap between bariatric surgery and the currently available pharmacotherapies.

Abstract
Traditional approaches to prevention of the complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity have focused on reduction of blood glucose and body weight. The development of new classes of medications, together with evidence from dietary weight loss and bariatric surgery trials, provides new options for prevention of heart failure, chronic kidney disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, metabolic liver disease, cancer, T2D, and neurodegenerative disorders. Here I review evidence for use of lifestyle modification, SGLT-2 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and bariatric surgery, for prevention of cardiorenal and metabolic complications in people with T2D or obesity, highlighting the contributions of weight loss, as well as weight loss-independent mechanisms of action. Collectively, the evidence supports a tailored approach to selection of therapeutic interventions for T2D and obesity based on the likelihood of developing specific complications, rather than a stepwise approach focused exclusively on glycemic or weight control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare histologic outcomes in patients with fibrotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and obesity after metabolic surgery versus nonsurgical care. BACKGROUND There are no published data comparing the effects of metabolic surgery versus nonsurgical care on histologic progression of NASH. METHODS Repeat liver biopsies were performed in patients with body mass index >30 kg/m 2 at a US health system whose baseline liver biopsy between 2004 and 2016 confirmed a histologic diagnosis of NASH including the presence of liver fibrosis, but without cirrhosis. Baseline characteristics of liver histology for patients who underwent simultaneous liver biopsy at the time of metabolic surgery were balanced with a nonsurgical control group using overlap weighting methods. The primary composite endpoint required both resolution of NASH and improvement of at least 1 fibrosis stage in the repeat liver biopsy. RESULTS A total of 133 patients (42 metabolic surgery and 91 nonsurgical controls) had a repeat liver biopsy with a median interval of 2 years. Overlap weighting provided balance for baseline histologic disease activity, fibrosis stage, and time interval between liver biopsies. In overlap-weighted patients, 50.1% in the surgical and 12.1% in the nonsurgical group met the primary endpoint (odds ratio=7.3; 95% CI, 2.8-19.2, P <0.001). NASH resolution and fibrosis improvement occurred in 68.5% and 64.1% of surgical patients, respectively. Surgical and nonsurgical patients who met the primary endpoint lost more weight than their counterparts who did not meet the primary endpoint [mean weight loss difference in the surgical group: 12.2% (95% CI, 7.3%-17.2%) and in the nonsurgical group: 11.6% (95% CI, 6.2%-16.9%)]. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with fibrotic noncirrhotic NASH, metabolic surgery resulted in simultaneous NASH resolution and fibrosis improvement in half of patients.

Surg Obes Relat Dis 2024; 20:146-152. [PMID: 38030456 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2023.10.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND While considered standard of care for obesity management, bariatric surgery is uncommon in patients with co-morbid inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to assess the association of IBD with postoperative outcomes and resource use following bariatric surgery. SETTING Academic, university-affiliated; United States. METHODS All elective adult hospitalizations for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) were identified in the 2016-2019 Nationwide Readmissions Database. Patients were classified based on diagnosis of ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). Multivariable regression models were developed to evaluate the association of IBD with outcomes of interest. RESULTS Of an estimated 719,270 eligible patients, 860 and 1214 comprised the UC and CD cohorts, respectively. Compared to non-IBD, UC and CD had a higher Elixhauser comorbidity index (UC: 3.0 ± 1.4; CD: 3.1 ± 1.5; non-IBD: 2.7 ± 1.4, P < .001) and more frequently underwent sleeve gastrectomy (UC: 77.5%; CD: 83.2%; non-IBD: 68.8%, P < .001). All IBD patients survived to discharge. After adjustment, IBD was not associated with significant differences in most clinical outcomes analyzed. UC (adjusted odds ratio: 2.86; 95% confidence interval: 1.14-7.13) and CD (adjusted odds ratio: 4.40; 95% confidence interval: 2.20-8.80) were associated with increased odds of gastric outlet obstruction after RYGB but not sleeve gastrectomy. CD, but not UC, was linked to significantly higher odds of small bowel obstruction following RYGB (adjusted odds ratio: 4.50; 95% confidence interval: 1.76-11.49). There was no difference in index LOS, hospitalization costs, or odds of 30-day readmission based on IBD. CONCLUSIONS Patients with obesity and IBD faced low rates of adverse outcomes following bariatric surgery. There is an increased risk of gastrointestinal obstruction for patients with IBD undergoing RYGB. Given its safety profile, bariatric surgery can be utilized as a weight loss intervention for the growing proportion of patients with obesity and co-morbid IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Utilization patterns of bariatric surgery among older patients with heart failure (HF), and the associations with cardiovascular outcomes, are not well known. METHODS Medicare beneficiaries with HF and at least class II obesity from 2013 to 2020 were identified with Medicare Provider Analysis and Review 100% inpatient files and Medicare 5% outpatient files. Patients who underwent bariatric surgery were matched to controls in a 1:2 ratio (matched on exact age, sex, race, body mass index, HF encounter year, and HF hospitalization rate pre-surgery/matched period). In an exploratory analysis, patients prescribed pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects (semaglutide, liraglutide, naltrexone-bupropion, or orlistat) were identified and matched to controls with a similar strategy in addition to HF medical therapy data. Cox models evaluated associations between weight loss therapies (as a time-varying covariate) and mortality risk and HF hospitalization rate (calculated as the rate of HF hospitalizations following index HF encounter per 100 person-months) during follow-up. RESULTS Of 298 101 patients with HF and body mass index ≥35 kg/m2, 2594 (0.9%) underwent bariatric surgery (45% men; mean age, 56.2 years; mean body mass index, 51.5 kg/m2). In propensity-matched analyses over a median follow-up of 4.7 years, bariatric surgery was associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 0.55 [95% CI, 0.49-0.63]; P<0.001), greater reduction in HF hospitalization rate (rate ratio, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.67-0.77]; P<0.001), and lower atrial fibrillation risk (HR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.65-0.93]; P=0.006). Use of pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects was low (4.8%), with 96.3% prescribed GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonists (semaglutide, 23.6%; liraglutide, 72.7%). In propensity-matched analysis over a median follow-up of 2.8 years, patients receiving pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects (versus matched controls) had a lower risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 0.82 [95% CI, 0.71-0.95]; P=0.007) and HF hospitalization rate (rate ratio, 0.87 [95% CI, 0.77-0.99]; P=0.04). CONCLUSIONS Bariatric surgery and pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects are associated with a lower risk of adverse outcomes among older patients with HF and obesity; however, overall utilization remains low.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a chronic and complex disease characterized by the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue, which has detrimental effects on health. Evaluating the changes in quality of life (QoL) after bariatric surgery complements the medical benefits which are documented by healthcare professionals. PURPOSE To study the perceived health benefits 1 year after substantial weight loss induced by bariatric surgery. METHODS This pilot study evaluated patients 1 year after bariatric surgery using 13 questions related to the health domains of the KOSS: airway, body mass, cardiovascular risk, diabetes, economic impact, functional, gonadal impact, health status perceived, image, junction of the gastro-esophagus, kidney, liver, and medication. In addition, the patients were asked to score the most significant benefit as "1," while the least beneficial benefit was scored as "13." RESULTS One hundred fourteen consecutive patients were evaluated (men = 37 and women = 77). The responses were divided into functional, metabolic, and mental/social benefits. Patients ranked the functional question, "I became more active, and I can do more things" as the most important (average score of 3.7 ± 0.2), followed by a question related to metabolic status: "I am less worried about my risk of heart disease" (4.5 ± 0.3), and then a social/mental question, "My clothes fit better" (5.4 ± 0.3). The three least valuable benefits for the cohort were sexual life improvements (8.9 ± 0.3), heartburn improvements (9.0 ± 0.3), and urinary incontinence improvements (9.8 ± 0.3). CONCLUSIONS Our observational pilot study demonstrated that patients value functional benefits after substantial weight loss the most, but that metabolic benefits and social/mental health benefits are also considered important.

Abstract
Background Secondary prevention lifestyle and pharmacological treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) reduce a high proportion of recurrent events and mortality. However, significant gaps exist between guideline recommendations and usual clinical practice. Objectives Describe the state of the art, the roadblocks, and successful strategies to overcome them in ASCVD secondary prevention management. Methods A writing group reviewed guidelines and research papers and received inputs from an international committee composed of cardiovascular prevention and health systems experts about the article's structure, content, and draft. Finally, an external expert group reviewed the paper. Results Smoking cessation, physical activity, diet and weight management, antiplatelets, statins, beta-blockers, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, and cardiac rehabilitation reduce events and mortality. Potential roadblocks may occur at the individual, healthcare provider, and health system levels and include lack of access to healthcare and medicines, clinical inertia, lack of primary care infrastructure or built environments that support preventive cardiovascular health behaviours. Possible solutions include improving health literacy, self-management strategies, national policies to improve lifestyle and access to secondary prevention medication (including fix-dose combination therapy), implementing rehabilitation programs, and incorporating digital health interventions. Digital tools are being examined in a range of settings from enhancing self-management, risk factor control, and cardiac rehab. Conclusions Effective strategies for secondary prevention management exist, but there are barriers to their implementation. WHF roadmaps can facilitate the development of a strategic plan to identify and implement local and national level approaches for improving secondary prevention.

Abstract
Bile acids play important roles in lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. Limited research exist on the association between serum total bile acid (TBA) levels and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), particularly those with comorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study was conducted to examine the relationship between baseline serum TBA level and T2DM status in patients with ACS after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to identify the predictive value of TBA levels for a 2-year risk of MACEs. 425 ACS patients underwent PCI were recruited and divided into three groups based on baseline serum TBA concentration. An analysis of the association between the T2DM status and baseline serum TBA levels was conducted using univariate linear regression and multivariate linear regression. The predictive relevance of serum TBA levels was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Cox regression. Kaplan-Meier curves were employed to analyze the differences among groups in predicting MACEs over a 2-year follow-up period. Baseline serum TBA levels were higher in ACS patients who were diagnosed with T2DM (the median 3.6 µmol/L) than those without T2DM (the median 3.0 µmol/L). T2DM status in ACS patients was positively correlated with baseline serum TBA concentrations (β: 1.7, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.3-3.0), particularly in the male (β: 2.0, 95% CI 0.3-3.6) and 50-69-year-old (β: 2.5, 95% CI 0.6-4.4) populations. The areas under the ROC curve of baseline serum TBA levels predicted MACEs in ACS and ACS-T2DM patients following PCI were 0.649 (95% CI 0.595-0.703) and 0.783 (95% CI 0.685-0.881), respectively. Furthermore, Cox regression analysis showed that baseline serum TBA level was associated with the occurrence of MACEs in patients with ACS after PCI over a 2-year follow-up period, especially in those diagnosed with T2DM, whose baseline TBA concentration was lower than 10.0 µmol/L. ACS Patients with T2DM had higher serum TBA levels. TBA level at baseline was an independent predictor of MACEs in ACS patients who underwent PCI, especially with comorbid T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease morbidity and death, including heart failure. Bariatric surgery has been proven to be the most effective long-term weight management treatment. This study investigated the changes in cardiac structure and function after bariatric surgery, including left ventricular global longitudinal strain. METHODS AND RESULTS There were 398 consecutive patients who underwent bariatric surgery with pre- and postoperative transthoracic echocardiographic imaging at a US health system between 2004 and 2019. We compared cardiovascular risk factors and echocardiographic parameters between baseline and follow-up at least 6 months postoperatively. Along with decreases in weight postoperatively, there were significant improvements in cardiovascular risk factors, including reduction in systolic blood pressure levels from 132 mm Hg (25th-75th percentile: 120-148 mm Hg) to 127 mm Hg (115-140 mm Hg; P=0.003), glycated hemoglobin levels from 6.5% (5.9%-7.6%) to 5.7% (5.4%-6.3%; P<0.001), and low-density lipoprotein levels from 97 mg/dL (74-121 mg/dL) to 86 mg/dL (63-106 mg/dL; P<0.001). Left ventricular mass decreased from 205 g (165-261 g) to 190 g (151-236 g; P<0.001), left ventricular ejection fraction increased from 58% (55%-61%) to 60% (55%-64%; P<0.001), and left ventricular global longitudinal strain improved from -15.7% (-14.3% to -17.5%) to -18.6% (-16.0% to -20.3%; P<0.001) postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS This study has shown the long-term impact of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and function, with reductions in left ventricular mass and improvement in left ventricular global longitudinal strain. These findings support the cardiovascular benefits of bariatric surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is linked with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events. Studies have suggested an association between the reduction of incident cardiovascular events in patients with MASLD after bariatric surgery. This systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to assess the influence of bariatric surgery on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diagnosed MASLD by identifying all available cohort studies and pooling their data. METHODS PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched till July 2023 for published studies that assessed the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiovascular outcomes in MASLD patients. Using a random effects model, hazard ratios (HRs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled. RESULTS The systematic review identified three cohort studies. The analysis of 240,516 MASLD patients found a significantly reduced incidence of cardiovascular events. (HR 0.51; 95 % CI 0.48 to 0.54, P value <0.00001). CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery in MASLD patients significantly reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events, suggesting that bariatric surgery is an effective therapeutic tool among MASLD patients compared to non-surgical interventions.

Chumakova-Orin M, Ingram JL, Que LG, Pagidipati N, Gordee A, Kuchibhatla M, Seymour KA. Short-term cardiovascular events after bariatric surgery in patients with metabolic syndrome. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2024; 20:18-28. [PMID: 37659898 PMCID: PMC10838346 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2023.07.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease along with other adverse events after bariatric surgery. OBJECTIVES The incidence of short-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with MetS undergoing bariatric surgery is not well characterized. SETTING Accredited bariatric surgery centers in the United States and Canada. METHODS A total of 760,076 patients aged ≥18 years with body mass index ≥35 kg/m2 who underwent primary bariatric surgery between 2015 and 2018 were included. Patients with both diabetes and hypertension were described as the MetS cohort. Patient characteristics, operative technique, and 30-day outcomes were compared. The primary outcome was incidence of MACE, a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, and all-cause mortality. Unadjusted and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed and included an interaction between MetS and hyperlipidemia (HLD). RESULTS Of the 577,882 patients included, 111,128 (19.2%) exhibited MetS. Patients with MetS more frequently experienced MACE compared with patients without MetS (.3% versus .1%; P < .001). The odds of MACE were greater for patients with MetS versus Non-MetS (odds ratio [OR] 2.87; 95% CI, 2.49-3.32) in the unadjusted analysis. MetS without HLD, MetS with HLD, and Non-MetS with HLD are significantly associated with MACE when compared with those with non-MetS without HLD. CONCLUSIONS Patients with MetS have an increased frequency of cardiac events following bariatric surgery. Future studies should determine if optimization of 1 or more components of MetS or other related co-morbidities reduces the cardiovascular risk for patients.

Abstract
Background Bariatric surgery is a common procedure worldwide for the treatment of severe obesity and associated comorbid conditions but there is a lack of evidence as to medium-term safety and effectiveness outcomes in a United Kingdom setting. Objective To establish the clinical outcomes and adverse events of different bariatric surgical procedures, their impact on quality of life and the effect on comorbidities. Design Prospective observational cohort study. Setting National Health Service secondary care and private practice in Scotland, United Kingdom. Participants Adults (age >16 years) undergoing their first bariatric surgery procedure. Main outcome measures Change in weight, hospital length of stay, readmission and reoperation rate, mortality, diabetes outcomes (HbA1c, medications), quality of life, anxiety, depression. Data sources Patient-reported outcome measures, hospital records, national electronic health records (Scottish Morbidity Record 01, Scottish Care Information Diabetes, National Records Scotland, Prescription Information System). Results Between December 2013 and February 2017, 548 eligible patients were approached and 445 participants were enrolled in the study. Of those, 335 had bariatric surgery and 1 withdrew from the study. Mean age was 46.0 (9.2) years, 74.7% were female and the median body mass index was 46.4 (42.4; 52.0) kg/m2. Weight was available for 128 participants at 3 years: mean change was -19.0% (±14.1) from the operation and -24.2% (±12.8) from the start of the preoperative weight-management programme. One hundred and thirty-nine (41.4%) participants were readmitted to hospital in the same or subsequent 35 months post surgery, 18 (5.4% of the operated cohort) had a reoperation or procedure considered to be related to bariatric surgery gastrointestinal complications or revisions. Fewer than five participants (<2%) died during follow-up. HbA1c was available for 93/182 and diabetes medications for 139/182 participants who had type 2 diabetes prior to surgery; HbA1c mean change was -5.72 (±16.71) (p = 0.001) mmol/mol and 65.5% required no diabetes medications (p < 0.001) at 3 years post surgery. Physical quality of life, available for 101/335 participants, improved in the 3 years post surgery, mean change in Rand 12-item Short Form Survey physical component score 8.32 (±8.95) (p < 0.001); however, there was no change in the prevalence of anxiety or depression. Limitations Due to low numbers of bariatric surgery procedures in Scotland, recruitment was stopped before achieving the intended 2000 participants and follow-up was reduced from 10 years to 3 years. Conclusions Bariatric surgery is a safe and effective treatment for obesity. Patients in Scotland, UK, appear to be older and have higher body mass than international comparators, which may be due to the small number of procedures performed. Future work Intervention studies are required to identify the optimal pre- and post surgery pathway to maximise safety and cost-effectiveness.

IFSO Consensus on Definitions and Clinical Practice Guidelines for Obesity Management-an International Delphi Study. Obes Surg 2024; 34:30-42. [PMID: 37999891 PMCID: PMC10781804 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-023-06913-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This survey of international experts in obesity management was conducted to achieve consensus on standardized definitions and to identify areas of consensus and non-consensus in metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) to assist in an algorithm of clinical practice guidelines for the management of obesity. METHODS A three-round Delphi survey with 136 statements was conducted by 43 experts in obesity management comprising 26 bariatric surgeons, 4 endoscopists, 8 endocrinologists, 2 nutritionists, 2 counsellors, an internist, and a pediatrician spanning six continents over a 2-day meeting in Hamburg, Germany. To reduce bias, voting was unanimous, and the statements were neither favorable nor unfavorable to the issue voted or evenly balanced between favorable and unfavorable. Consensus was defined as ≥ 70% inter-voter agreement. RESULTS Consensus was reached on all 15 essential definitional and reporting statements, including initial suboptimal clinical response, baseline weight, recurrent weight gain, conversion, and revision surgery. Consensus was reached on 95/121 statements on the type of surgical procedures favoring Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty. Moderate consensus was reached for sleeve gastrectomy single-anastomosis duodenoileostomy and none on the role of intra-gastric balloons. Consensus was reached for MBS in patients > 65 and < 18 years old, with a BMI > 50 kg/m2, and with various obesity-related complications such as type 2 diabetes, liver, and kidney disease. CONCLUSIONS In this survey of 43 multi-disciplinary experts, consensus was reached on standardized definitions and reporting standards applicable to the whole medical community. An algorithm for treating patients with obesity was explored utilizing a thoughtful multimodal approach.
