Int J Obes (Lond) 2024:10.1038/s41366-024-01615-2. [PMID: 39174748 DOI: 10.1038/s41366-024-01615-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 08/24/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study reports the development and pilot application of the Bariatric Surgery Assessment and Prioritisation Tool (BAPT) for use in a public health system. The BAPT was designed as a patient prioritisation instrument to assess patients with excessive weight and type 2 diabetes suitable for bariatric surgery. We assessed whether the instrument successfully identified those who gained the greatest benefits including weight loss, diabetes remission, reduction in comorbidities, and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). METHODS The BAPT instrument was applied to score 292 patients referred for bariatric surgery in Queensland between 2017 and 2020 based on their, body mass index, diabetes status, surgical risk (e.g. pulmonary embolism) and comorbidities (e.g. non-alcoholic steatohepatitis). These data were collected at referral and at 12-months post-surgery for 130 patients and stratified by BAPT scores. Outcomes included clinical and HR-QoL. RESULTS Patients' BAPT scores ranged from 12 to 78 (possible range 2-98). Those with higher scores tended to be younger (p < 0.001), have higher BMI (p < 0.001) or require insulin to manage diabetes (p < 0.01). All patients lost similar percentages of body weight (20-25%, p = 0.73) but higher-scoring patients were more likely to discontinue oral diabetes medications (p < 0.001) and the improvement in glycated haemoglobin was four times greater in patients scoring 70-79 points compared to those scoring 20-29 (p < 0.05). Those who scored ≥ 50 on the BAPT were substantially more likely to obtain diabetes remission (57% vs 31%). BAPT scores of 40 and above tended to have greater improvement in HR-QoL. CONCLUSIONS The BAPT prioritised younger patients with higher BMIs who realised greater improvements in their diabetes after bariatric surgery. Higher-scoring BAPT patients should be prioritised for bariatric surgery as they have a greater likelihood of attaining diabetes remission.

Abstract
Background We applied the novel Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease EVENTs (PREVENT) equations to evaluate cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) health and estimated CVD risk, including heart failure (HF), after bariatric surgery. Methods Among 7804 patients (20-79 years) undergoing bariatric surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center during 1999-2022, CVD risk factors at pre-surgery, 1-year, and 2-year post-surgery were extracted from electronic health records. The 10- and 30-year risks of total CVD, atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD), coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and HF were estimated for patients without a history of CVD or its subtypes at each time point, using the social deprivation index-enhanced PREVENT equations. Paired t-tests or McNemar tests were used to compare pre- with post-surgery CKM health and CVD risk. Two-sample t-tests were used to compare CVD risk reduction between patient subgroups defined by age, sex, race, operation type, weight loss, and history of diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Results CKM health was significantly improved after surgery with lower systolic blood pressure, non-high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL), and diabetes prevalence, but higher HDL and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The 10-year total CVD risk decreased from 6.51% at pre-surgery to 4.81% and 5.08% at 1- and 2-year post-surgery (relative reduction: 25.9% and 16.8%), respectively. Significant risk reductions were seen for all CVD subtypes (i.e., ASCVD, CHD, stroke, and HF), with the largest reduction for HF (relative reduction: 55.7% and 44.8% at 1- and 2-year post-surgery, respectively). Younger age, White race, >30% weight loss, diabetes history, and no dyslipidemia history were associated with greater HF risk reductions. Similar results were found for the 30-year risk estimates. Conclusions Bariatric surgery significantly improves CKM health and reduces estimated CVD risk, particularly HF, by 45-56% within 1-2 years post-surgery. HF risk reduction may vary by patient's demographics, weight loss, and disease history, which warrants further research.

Abstract
Context Metabolic surgery remains the most effective and durable treatment for severe obesity and related metabolic diseases. Objective We examined cardiometabolic improvements after metabolic surgery and associated presurgery demographic and clinical factors in a large multiracial cohort. Methods Included were 7804 patients (20-79 years) undergoing first-time metabolic surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center from 1999 to 2022. Pre- and 1-year postsurgery cardiometabolic profiles were extracted from medical records, including body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, blood lipids, glucose, and hemoglobin A1c. The 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk was estimated per American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association equations. Pre- to postsurgery cardiometabolic profiles were compared by paired t-test, and associated factors were identified by multivariable linear and logistic regression. Results Among 7804 patients, most were women and White, while 1618 were men and 1271 were Black; median age and BMI were 45 years [interquartile range (IQR): 37-53] and 46.4 kg/m2 (IQR: 42.1-52.4). At 1-year postsurgery, patients showed significant decreases in systolic blood pressure (10.5 [95% confidence interval: 10.1, 10.9] mmHg), total cholesterol (13.5 [10.3, 16.7] mg/dL), glucose (13.6 [12.9, 14.4] mg/dL), hemoglobin A1c (1.13% [1.06, 1.20]), and 10-year ASCVD risk (absolute reduction: 1.58% [1.22, 1.94]; relative reduction: 34.4% [29.4, 39.3]); all P < .0001. Older, male, or Black patients showed less reduction in 10-year ASCVD risk and lower odds of diabetes/hypertension/dyslipidemia remission than younger, female, or White patients. Patients with a history of diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, or cardiovascular disease showed less cardiometabolic improvements than those without. Results were similar with or without further adjusting for weight loss and largely sustained at 2-year postsurgery. Conclusion Metabolic surgery results in significant cardiometabolic improvements, particularly among younger, female, or White patients and those without comorbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery leads to weight loss and to cardiometabolic risk improvement. Although prediabetes remission after bariatric surgery is biologically plausible, data on this topic is scarce. We aimed to assess prediabetes remission rate and clinical predictors of remission in a 4 year follow up period. METHODS Observational longitudinal study including patients with obesity and prediabetes who had undergone bariatric surgery in our centre. Prediabetes was defined as having a baseline glycated haemoglobin (A1c) between 5.7% and 6.4% and absence of anti-diabetic drug treatment. We used logistic regression models to evaluate the association between the predictors and prediabetes remission rate. RESULTS A total of 669 patients were included, 84% being female. The population had a mean age of 45.4 ± 10.1 years-old, body mass index of 43.8 ± 5.7 kg/m2, and median A1c of 5.9 [5.8, 6.1]%. After bariatric surgery, prediabetes remission rate was 82%, 73%, 66%, and 58%, respectively in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years of follow-up. Gastric sleeve (GS) surgery was associated with higher prediabetes remission rate than Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in the 3rd year of follow-up. Men had a higher remission rate than women, in the 1st and 3nd years of follow-up in the unadjusted analysis. Younger patients presented a higher remission rate comparing to older patients in the 3rd year of follow-up. CONCLUSION We showed a high prediabetes remission rate after bariatric surgery. The remission rate decreases over the follow-up period, although most of the patients maintain the normoglycemia. Prediabetes remission seems to be more significant in patients who had undergone GS, in male and in younger patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: This study aims to compare the predictive capacity of ABCD, DiaRem2, Ad-DiaRem, and DiaBetter scoring systems for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission in Turkish adult morbidly obese patients who underwent SG.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 80 patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG) operation, were diagnosed with T2DM preoperatively, and had at least one-year follow-up after surgery. Because bariatric surgery is performed on patients with class III obesity (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2) or class II obesity (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2) with obesity releated comorbid conditions in our hospital, our study cohort consisted of these patients.
Results: The diagnostic performance of the DiaBetter, DiaRem2, Ad-DiaRem and ABCD for identifying diabetes remission, assessed by the AUC was 0.882 (95% CI, 0.807-0.958, p < 0.001), 0.862 (95% CI, 0.779-0.945, p < 0.001), 0.849 (95% CI, 0.766-0.932, p < 0.001) and 0.726 (95% CI, 0.601-0.851, p = 0.002), respectively. The AUCs of the Ad-Diarem, DiaBetter and DiaRem2 were statistically higher than AUC of the ABCD (all p-value < 0.001). Besides, there was no statistically significant difference in AUCs of the Ad-Diarem, DiaBetter and DiaRem scores (all p-value > 0.05).
Conclusion: Ad-Dairem, DiaBetter and DaiRem scoring systems were found to provide a successful prediction for diabetes remission in sleeve gastrectomy patients. It was observed that the predictive power of the ABCD scoring system was lower than the other systems. We think that the use of scoring systems for diabetes remission, which have a simple use, will become widespread.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although racial inequalities in referral and access to bariatric surgical care have been well reported, racial difference in the selection of surgical techniques is understudied. This study examined factors associated with the utilization of the two main bariatric surgical techniques: laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). MATERIALS AND METHODS The National Inpatient Sample database was queried for patients who underwent elective LSG or LRYGB for the treatment of severe obesity. Chi-square tests and multivariable logistic regression assessed associations of surgical approach with patient and facility characteristics. Sensitivity analyses examined the following body mass index (BMI) subgroups: < 40.0 kg/m2, 40.0-44.9 kg/m2, 45.0-49.9 kg/m2, and ≥ 50.0 kg/m2. RESULTS Within the final cohort (N = 86,053), 73.0% (N = 62,779) underwent LSG, and 27.0% (N = 23,274) underwent LRYGB. Patients with BMI 45.0-49.9 kg/m2 (OR = 0.85) and BMI ≥ 50.0 kg/m2 (OR = 0.80) were less likely to undergo LSG than patients with BMI 40.0-45.0 kg/m2 (all p < 0.001). However, Black (OR = 1.74) and White Hispanic patients (OR = 1.30) were more likely to undergo LSG than White non-Hispanic patients (all p < 0.005). In the BMI ≥ 50.0 kg/m2 group, Black patients were still more likely to undergo LSG compared to White non-Hispanic patients (OR = 1.69, p < 0.001), while Asians/Pacific Islanders were less likely to receive LSG than White non-Hispanic patients (OR = 0.41, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION In this observational study, we identified racial differences in the selection of common bariatric surgical approaches across various BMI categories. Future investigations are warranted to study and to promote awareness of the racial/ethnic influence in attitudes on obesity, weight loss, financial support, and surgical risks during bariatric discussions with minorities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate microRNAs (miRNAs) as predictive biomarkers for type 2 diabetes (T2D) remission 12 months after sleeve gastrectomy (SG). METHODS A total of 179 serum miRNAs were profiled, and 26 clinical variables were collected from 46 patients. Two patients were later excluded because of hemolysis, and six patients with unclear remission status were set aside to evaluate the prediction models. The remaining 38 patients were included for model building. Variable selection was done using different approaches, including Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO). Prediction models were then developed using LASSO and assessed in the validation set. RESULTS A total of 26 out of 38 patients achieved T2D remission 12 months after SG. The prediction model with only clinical variables misclassified two patients, which were correctly classified using miRNAs. Two miRNA-only models achieved an accuracy of one but performed poorly for the validation set. The best miRNA model was a mixed model (accuracy: 0.974) containing four miRNAs (hsa-miR-32-5p, hsa-miR-382-5p, hsa-miR-1-3p, and hsa-miR-21-5p) and four clinical variables (T2D medication, sex, age, and fasting blood glucose). These miRNAs are involved in pathways related to obesity and insulin resistance. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that four serum miRNAs might be predictive biomarkers for T2D remission 12 months after SG, but further validation studies are needed.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery has been shown to have a variety of metabolically beneficial effects for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and is now also called metabolic surgery. At the 2nd Diabetes Surgery Summit held in 2015 in London, the indication for bariatric and metabolic surgery was included in the “algorithm for patients with type T2D”. With this background, the Japanese Society for Treatment of Obesity (JSTO), the Japan Diabetes Society (JDS) and the Japan Society for the Study of Obesity (JASSO) have formed a joint committee to develop a consensus statement regarding bariatric and metabolic surgery for the treatment of Japanese patients with T2D. Eventually, the consensus statement was announced at the joint meeting of the 38th Annual Meeting of JSTO and the 41st Annual Meeting of JASSO convened in Toyama on March 21, 2021. In preparing the consensus statement, we used Japanese data as much as possible as scientific evidence to consider the indication criteria, and set two types of recommendation grades, “recommendation” and “consideration”, for items for which recommendations are possible. We hope that this statement will be helpful in providing evidence-based high-quality care through bariatric and metabolic surgery for the treatment of obese Japanese patients with T2D.

Prognostic Models for Predicting Remission of Diabetes Following Bariatric Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Diabetes Care 2021; 44:2626-2641. [PMID: 34670787 DOI: 10.2337/dc21-0166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/15/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Remission of type 2 diabetes following bariatric surgery is well established, but identifying patients who will go into remission is challenging. PURPOSE To perform a systematic review of currently available diabetes remission prediction models, compare their performance, and evaluate their applicability in clinical settings. DATA SOURCES A comprehensive systematic literature search of MEDLINE, MEDLINE In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) was undertaken. The search was restricted to studies published in the last 15 years and in the English language. STUDY SELECTION All studies developing or validating a prediction model for diabetes remission in adults after bariatric surgery were included. DATA EXTRACTION The search identified 4,165 references, of which 38 were included for data extraction. We identified 16 model development and 22 validation studies. DATA SYNTHESIS Of the 16 model development studies, 11 developed scoring systems and 5 proposed logistic regression models. In model development studies, 10 models showed excellent discrimination with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ≥0.800. Two of these prediction models, ABCD and DiaRem, were widely externally validated in different populations, in a variety of bariatric procedures, and for both short- and long-term diabetes remission. Newer prediction models showed excellent discrimination in test studies, but external validation was limited. LIMITATIONS While the key messages were consistent, a large proportion of the studies were conducted in small cohorts of patients with short duration of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Among the prediction models identified, the ABCD and DiaRem models were the most widely validated and showed acceptable to excellent discrimination. More studies validating newer models and focusing on long-term diabetes remission are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The alarming rise in the worldwide prevalence of obesity is paralleled by an increasing burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Metabolic surgery is the most effective means of obtaining substantial and durable weight loss in individual obese patients with T2DM. There are randomized trials that justify the inclusion of metabolic surgery into the treatment algorithm for patients with T2DM, but remission rates of T2DM after metabolic surgery can display great variability.
AIM To discuss the most commonly used surgical options including vertical sleeve gastrectomy, adjustable gastric banding, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch.
METHODS We also report from observational and randomized controlled studies on rate of remission of T2DM after the surgical procedures.
RESULTS In light of the recent findings, metabolic surgery is a safe and effective treatment option for obese patient with T2DM, but further studies are needed to clarify better the rate of diabetes remission.
CONCLUSION In light of the recent findings, metabolic surgery is a safe and effective treatment option for obese patients with T2DM, but further studies are needed to clarify better the rate of diabetes remission.

The Choice of Gastric Bypass or Sleeve Gastrectomy for Patients Stratified by Diabetes Duration and Body Mass Index (BMI) level: Results from a National Registry and Meta-analysis. Obes Surg 2021; 31:3975-3989. [PMID: 34132996 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-021-05459-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2021] [Revised: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) should be the optimal choice in patients stratified by diabetes duration and body mass index (BMI) level. METHODS Classification tree analysis was performed to identify the influential factors for surgical procedure selection in real setting. Meta-analyses stratified by influential factors were conducted to compare the complete diabetes remission rates between SG and RYGB. The cost-effectiveness analysis was performed when results from meta-analysis remain uncertain. RESULTS Among 3198 bariatric procedures in China, 824 (73%) SGs and 191 (17%) RYGBs were performed in patients with T2DM. Diabetes duration with a cutoff value of 5 years and BMI level with 35.5 kg/m2 were identified as the influential factors. For patients with diabetes duration > 5 years, RYGB showed a significant higher complete diabetes remission rate than SG at 1 year: 0.52 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.46-0.58) versus 0.36 (95% CI: 0.30-0.42). For patients with diabetes duration ≤ 5 years and BMI ≥ 35.5 kg/m2, there was no significant difference between 2 procedures: 0.57 (95% CI: 0.43-0.71) for SG versus 0.66 (95% CI: 0.62-0.70) for RYGB. The cost-effectiveness ratios of SG and RYGB were 244.58 and 276.97 dollars per QALY, respectively. CONCLUSIONS For patients with diabetes duration > 5 years, RYGB was the optimal choice with regard to achieving complete diabetes remission at 1 year after surgery. However, for patients with diabetes duration ≤ 5 years and BMI ≥ 35.5 kg/m2, SG appeared to provide a cost-effective choice.

Prediction of Long-Term Diabetes Remission After Metabolic Surgery in Obese East Asian Patients: a Comparison Between ABCD and IMS Scores. Obes Surg 2021; 31:1485-1495.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recently, more than 10 models have been developed to predict remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after metabolic surgery. The ABCD score was compared to the individualized metabolic surgery (IMS) score in terms of prediction of T2DM remission, but which of the two scoring systems is better remains controversial. METHODS Patient data from 463 obese East Asian patients who underwent laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), or SG with duodenojejunal bypass (SG-DJB) as a primary operation and were followed for at least 3 years were retrospectively collected from 24 institutions. The correlation between the ABCD and IMS scoring systems and the discrimination power of the models was evaluated. The cut-off point for the IMS stage of T2DM severity was also revised to adjust the scoring system to obese East Asian patients. RESULTS The two scoring systems were significantly well correlated. The IMS scoring system showed significant differences in T2DM remission rates between the procedures in the moderate stage, but the ABCD score showed no significant differences in each category. The discrimination power of the IMS score was comparable to that of the ABCD score at both 3 and 5 years. The revised IMS scoring system showed that SG-DJB had significantly higher T2DM remission rates in the moderate stage at 5 years than RYGB or SG. CONCLUSION IMS score may be comparable to ABCD score to predict T2DM remission in obese East Asian patients. The revised IMS scoring system may also select candidates for SG or SG-DJB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric/metabolic surgery has been incorporated into the therapeutic treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Among many bariatric/metabolic procedures, one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is one of the most effective procedures but long-term data about T2DM recurrence after OAGB are lacking. METHODS Outcomes of 134 patients who had undergone OAGB for the treatment of T2DM with long-term (5 years) follow-up were assessed in a retrospective cohort study. The remission of T2DM after OAGB surgery was evaluated in different groups using a scoring system composed of the age, BMI, C-peptide level, duration of T2DM (ABCD score), and percent of total weight loss (%TWL). RESULTS The %TWL and percent of excess weight loss (%EWL) of the OAGB patients at 5 years after surgery were 29.2 (10.6) and 72.1(27.5), respectively. The mean BMI decreased from 39.5(7.9) to 27.6(5.3) kg/m2 and mean glycated hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) decreased from 8.9 to 5.9% in OAGB patients at 5 years after OAGB. The complete T2DM remission rate of OAGB was 76.1% at 1 year and 64.2% at 5 years after surgery. Forty-one (57.8%) out of 71 patients who completed a 10-year follow-up remained in complete T2DM remission. The T2DM recurrence rate of OAGB patients was 15.7% at 5 years after surgery. CONCLUSIONS OAGB is highly effective in inducing T2DM remission but a significant number of patients will still have T2DM recurrence. To select patient with an ABCD score > 5 and maintaining a weight loss greater than 30% is important for durable T2DM remission after OAGB.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many risk prediction models of diabetes remission after bariatric and metabolic surgery have been proposed. Most models have been created using Roux-en-Y gastric bypass cohorts. However, validation of these models in sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is limited. The objective of our study is to validate the performance of risk prediction models of diabetes remission in obese patients with diabetes who underwent SG. METHOD This retrospective cohort study included 128 patients who underwent SG with at least 1 year follow-up from Dec 2011 to Sep 2016 as the validation cohort. A literature review revealed total 11 models with 2 categories (scoring system and logistic regression), which were validated by our study dataset. Discrimination was evaluated by area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) while calibration by Hosmer-Lemeshow test and predicted versus observed remission ratio. RESULTS At 1 year after surgery, 71.9% diabetes remission (HbA1c < 6.0 off medication) and 61.4% excess weight loss were observed. Individual metabolic surgery, ABCD, DiaRem, Advanced-DiaRem, DiaBetter, Ana et al., and Dixon et al. models showed excellent discrimination power (AUC > 0.8). In calibration, all models overestimated diabetes remission from 5 to 30% but did not lose their goodness of fit. CONCLUSION This is the first comprehensive external validation of current risk prediction models of diabetes remission at 1 year after SG. Seven models showed excellent predicting power, and scoring models were recommended more because of their easy utility.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is an efficient treatment for weight loss in obese patients and for resolving obesity comorbidities. However, the mechanisms behind these outcomes are unclear. Recent studies have indicated significant alterations in the transcriptome after surgery, specifically in the differential expression of microRNAs. In order to summarize the recent findings, we conducted a systematic summary of studies comparing microRNA expression levels before and after surgery. We identified 17 animal model and human studies from four databases (Ovid, Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed) to be enrolled in this meta-analysis. From these studies, we identified 14 miRNAs which had the same direction of modulation of their expression after surgery in at least two studies (downregulated: hsa-miR-93-5p, hsa-miR-106b-5p, hsa-let-7b-5p, hsa-let-7i-5p, hsa-miR-16-5p, hsa-miR-19b-3p, hsa-miR-92a-3p, hsa-miR-222-3p, hsa-miR-142-3p, hsa-miR-140-5p, hsa-miR-155-5p, rno-miR-320-3p; upregulated: hsa-miR-7-5p, hsa-miR-320c). Pathway analysis for these miRNAs was done using database resources (DIANA-TarBase and KEGG pathway database) and their predicted target genes were discussed in relation with obesity and its comorbidities. Discrepancies in study design, such as miRNA source, bariatric surgery type, time of observation after surgery, and miRNA profiling methods, were also discussed.

Preoperative Fasting C-Peptide Predicts Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Remission in Low-BMI Chinese Patients After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass. J Gastrointest Surg 2018; 22:1672-1678. [PMID: 29845572 DOI: 10.1007/s11605-018-3818-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2017] [Accepted: 05/15/2018] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the role of preoperative fasting C-peptide (FCP) levels in predicting diabetic outcomes in low-BMI Chinese patients following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) by comparing the metabolic outcomes of patients with FCP > 1 ng/ml versus FCP ≤ 1 ng/ml. METHODS The study sample included 78 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with an average BMI < 30 kg/m2 at baseline. Patients' parameters were analyzed before and after surgery, with a 2-year follow-up. A univariate logistic regression analysis and multivariate analysis of variance between the remission and improvement group were performed to determine factors that were associated with type 2 diabetes remission after RYGB. Linear correlation analyses between FCP and metabolic parameters were performed. Patients were divided into two groups: FCP > 1 ng/ml and FCP ≤ 1 ng/ml, with measured parameters compared between the groups. RESULTS Patients' fasting plasma glucose, 2-h postprandial plasma glucose, FCP, and HbA1c improved significantly after surgery (p < 0.05). Factors associated with type 2 diabetes remission were BMI, 2hINS, and FCP at the univariate logistic regression analysis (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed then showed the results were more related to FCP (OR = 2.39). FCP showed a significant linear correlation with fasting insulin and BMI (p < 0.05). There was a significant difference in remission rate between the FCP > 1 ng/ml and FCP ≤ 1 ng/ml groups (p = 0.01). The parameters of patients with FCP > 1 ng/ml, including BMI, plasma glucose, HbA1c, and plasma insulin, decreased markedly after surgery (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION FCP level is a significant predictor of diabetes outcomes after RYGB in low-BMI Chinese patients. An FCP level of 1 ng/ml may be a useful threshold for predicting surgical prognosis, with FCP > 1 ng/ml predicting better clinical outcomes following RYGB.

Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is as safe as laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Results of a comparative cohort study. Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2018; 35:38-43. [PMID: 30275949 PMCID: PMC6161416 DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2018.09.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2018] [Revised: 08/19/2018] [Accepted: 09/10/2018] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background A meta-analysis and six randomized controlled trials show higher 30-day complication rates with laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) than with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Aim To identify any difference in 30-day outcomes of patients treated with LRYGB or LSG when a standardized technique and identical post-operative protocol was followed with all procedures being conducted either by or under the supervision of a single consultant surgeon who had significant experience in bariatric surgery prior to commencing independent practice. Methods A prospectively collected database of all patients under primary LRYGB or LSG, between March 2010 and February 2017, was analyzed. Data on demographics, length-of-stay (LOS), conversion to open, 30-day complications and mortality were reviewed. Results Over a seven-year period, 485 patients (LRYGB-279 and LSG-206) were included. There were no significant demographic differences and no difference in the pre-operative risk scoring [American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and obesity surgery mortality risk score (OSMRS)] between the groups. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of LOS (p = 0.275), complications (p = 0.920), re-admissions (p = 0.593) or re-operations (p = 0.366) within 30-days. There were no conversions to open or in-patient mortality in either group. Conclusions Unlike previous studies, we found no difference in early complication rates between LRYGB and LSG in a comparable cohort when performed by a surgeon with sufficient experience in bariatric surgery. Low complication rates with both procedures. Most complications were minor (Clavien-Dindo ≤ IIIa). LRYGB is as safe as SG in the early post-operative period when performed by a surgeon with adequate experience. Bariatric fellowships play an important role in ensuring optimal outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleeve gastrectomy is currently the most frequently performed bariatric procedure worldwide; however, with respect to a certain need for revisional surgery (due to reflux disease or weight regain) there is an ongoing discussion about the value of sleeve gastrectomy in terms of a stand-alone procedure. OBJECTIVE The aim of this article is to critically discuss whether sleeve gastrectomy can still be considered a stand-alone procedure. MATERIAL AND METHODS The current literature was searched for results after sleeve gastrectomy and the recommendations regarding this procedure are discussed. RESULTS Currently approximately 50% of primary bariatric procedures are sleeve gastrectomies, which has become a well-established stand-alone procedure. Sleeve gastrectomy leads to good mid-term results; however, the results of the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass are comparatively superior in terms of type 2 diabetes remission, control of preexisting or de novo reflux disease and weight loss. The mortality is comparable; however, the morbidity is lower after sleeve gastrectomy but there is a relevant rate of fistulas of the stapler suture. CONCLUSION Patients considered for sleeve gastrectomy must be informed of the procedure-specific risks, including the unforeseeable need for revision or redo surgery firstly due to weight regain or failing to reach the individual therapy target and secondly for worsening of a preexisting or de novo reflux disease.

Abstract
Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are currently two pan‐endemic health problems worldwide and are associated with considerable increase in morbidity and mortality. Both diseases are closely related and very difficult to control by current medical treatment, including diet, drug therapy and behavioral modification. Bariatric surgery has proven successful in treating not just obesity but also in significantly decreasing overall obesity‐associated morbidities as well as improving quality of life in severely obese patients (body mass index [BMI] >35 kg/m2). A rapid increase in bariatric surgery started in the 2000s when the laparoscopic surgical technique was introduced into this field. Many new procedures had been developed and changed the face of modern bariatric surgery. Recently, bariatric surgery played as gastrointestinal metabolic surgery has been proposed as a new treatment modality for obesity‐related T2DM for patients with BMI >35 kg/m2. Strong evidence has demonstrated that bariatric/metabolic surgery is an effective and durable treatment for obese T2DM patients. Bariatric/metabolic surgery is now becoming an important surgical division. The present article examines and discusses recent advancements in bariatric/metabolic surgery and covers four major fields: (i) the rapid increase in numbers and better safety; (ii) new procedures with better outcomes; (iii) from bariatric to metabolic surgery; and (iv) understanding the mechanisms and personalized treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight regain and type-2 diabetes relapse has been reported in a significant proportion of vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) patients in some studies, but definitive conclusions regarding the long-term comparative effectiveness of VSG and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery are lacking both in humans and rodent models. This study's objective was to compare the effects of murine models of VSG and RYGB surgery on body weight, body composition, food intake, energy expenditure, and glycemic control. METHODS VSG, RYGB, and sham surgery was performed in high-fat diet-induced obese mice, and the effects on body weight and glycemic control were observed for a period of 12 weeks. RESULTS After the initial weight loss, VSG mice regained significant amounts of body weight and fat mass that were only marginally lower than in sham-operated mice. In contrast, RYGB produced sustained loss of body weight and fat mass up to 12 weeks and drastically improved fasting insulin and HOMA-IR compared with sham-operated mice. Using weight-matched control groups, we also found that the adaptive hypometabolic response to weight loss was blunted by both VSG and RYGB, and that despite large weight/fat regain, fasting insulin and HOMA-IR were markedly improved, but not reversed, in VSG mice. CONCLUSIONS VSG is less effective to lastingly suppress body weight and improve glycemic control compared with RYGB in mice. Given similar observations in many human studies, the run towards replacing RYGB with VSG is premature and should await carefully controlled randomized long-term trials with VSG and RYGB.

Abstract
As lifestyle and diet patterns have become westernized in East Asia, the prevalence of obesity has rapidly increased. Bariatric surgeries, such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), are considered the first-line treatment option in patients with severe obesity. However, postoperative complications have increased and the proper management of these complications, including the use of endoscopic procedures, has become important. The most serious complications, such as leaks and fistulas, can be treated with endoscopic stent placement and injection of fibrin glue, and a novel full-thickness closure over-the-scope clip (OTSC) has been used for treatment of postoperative leaks. Stricture at the gastrojejunal (GJ) anastomosis site after RYGB or incisura angularis in SG can be managed using stents or endoscopic balloon dilation. Dilation of the GJ anastomosis or gastric pouch may lead to failure of weight loss, and the use of endoscopic sclerotherapy, novel endoscopic suturing devices, and OTSCs have been attempted. Intragastric migration of the gastric band can be successfully treated using various endoscopic tools. Endoscopy plays a pivotal role in the management of post-bariatric complications, and close cooperation between endoscopists and bariatric surgeons may further increase the success rate of endoscopic procedures.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a current global health priority and Asia is the epicenter of this epidemic disease. Unlike in the west, where older population is most affected, the burden of diabetes in Asian countries is disproportionately high in young to middle-age adults. The incidence of diabetic nephropathy is alarmingly high in patients with early onset T2DM, especially in those with poor glycemic control. How to control this chronic and debilitating disease is currently a very important health issue in Asia. Bariatric surgery has proven successful in treating not just obesity but also T2DM in morbid obese patients (body mass index [BMI] >35 kg/m²). Gastrointestinal metabolic surgery recently has been proposed as a new treatment modality for obesity related T2DM for patients with BMI <35 kg/m². Many studies from Asia reported promising results of metabolic surgery to treat obese patients with T2DM which is not well controlled. It has been demonstrated that changes in gastrointestinal hormone secretion after gastrointestinal surgery would favor an early improvement of T2DM in Asians. New procedures have also been designed and proposed specifically for the treatment of diabetes in Asia. This article examines clinical trial data and accepted algorithms with a view toward elucidating the application of metabolic surgery for the treatment of T2DM in the Asia. We propose a systematic approach to surgical treatment, addressing current evidences, patient selection, procedure of choice, and timing and guideline for new procedures.
