Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a serious complication of obesity with type 2 diabetes and is a major cause of mortality. Metabolic surgery, such as duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB), can effectively improve diabetic cardiomyopathy; however, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Oxidative stress is one of the pivotal mechanisms of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Our objective was to investigate the effect and potential mechanisms of DJB on oxidative stress in the heart of diabetic cardiomyopathy rats. METHODS High-fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin was used to establish diabetic cardiomyopathy rats. DJB was performed on diabetic cardiomyopathy rats, and high glucose and palmitate were used to simulate diabetic cardiomyopathy in H9C2 cells in vitro. Sera from different groups of rats were used for experiments in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS DJB effectively improved oxidative stress and activated the adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway to increase endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) phosphorylation level and the expression of antioxidative system-related proteins and genes in the heart of diabetic cardiomyopathy rats. AMPK agonists and serum from DJB rats activated the AMPK pathway to increase eNOS phosphorylation level and the expression of antioxidative system-related proteins and genes and decreased the content of reactive oxygen species in H9C2 cells, but this improvement was almost eliminated by the addition of AMPK inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS DJB activates eNOS and enhances the antioxidant system by activating the AMPK pathway-and not solely by improving blood glucose-to improve oxidative stress in the heart of diabetic cardiomyopathy rats.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity is associated with alterations in cardiac structure and haemodynamics leading to cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Culminating evidence suggests improvement of cardiac structure and function following bariatric surgery. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and function in patients before and after bariatric surgery. METHODS Systematic review and meta-analysis of studies reporting pre- and postoperative cardiac structure and function parameters on cardiac imaging in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. RESULTS Eighty studies of 3332 patients were included. Bariatric surgery is associated with a statistically significant improvement in cardiac geometry and function including a decrease of 12.2% (95% CI 0.096-0.149; p < 0.001) in left ventricular (LV) mass index, an increase of 0.155 (95% CI 0.106-0.205; p < 0.001) in E/A ratio, a decrease of 2.012 mm (95% CI 1.356-2.699; p < 0.001) in left atrial diameter, a decrease of 1.16 mm (95% CI 0.62-1.69; p < 0.001) in LV diastolic dimension, and an increase of 1.636% (95% CI 0.706-2.566; p < 0.001) in LV ejection fraction after surgery. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery led to reverse remodelling and improvement in cardiac geometry and function driven by metabolic and haemodynamic factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This meta-analysis was performed to investigate how cardiac structures and functions change in the very early stage after bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS We thoroughly searched the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases for articles including patients who underwent bariatric surgery and examined the changes of their cardiac indices. Results were pooled by using Review Manager 5.1 and Stata 12.0. Weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were obtained. The I-squared (I2) test was used to determine the heterogeneity between studies. To identify publication bias, funnel plots and Egger's test were utilized. The leave-one-out method was used to conduct sensitivity analysis. RESULTS In this meta-analysis, 24 research including 942 patients were considered. According to our findings, most cardiac indices changed 3-6 months following bariatric surgery. An improvement in cardiac geometry was reflected by a reduction in left ventricular mass (LVM) (WMD = - 22.06, 95% CI = (- 27.97, - 16.16)). The left ventricular diastolic function improved, as reflected by the decrease in the E/e' ratio (WMD = - 0.90, 95% CI = (- 1.83, - 0.16)). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) did not show an obvious change (WMD = 0.94, 95% CI = (- 0.19, 2.07)), while a more sensitive indicator of left ventricular systolic function, left ventricular longitudinal strain (LV LS), increased (WMD = - 2.43, 95% CI = (- 3.96, - 0.89)). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis includes the newest and most comprehensive cardiac indices to prove that cardiac structures and functions are improved early after bariatric surgery, which has not been reported by any other studies.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to provide pooled data from all studies on the impact of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure, and systolic and diastolic function evaluated by either echocardiography or cardiac magnetic resonance. PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched. Almost all of cardiac left-side structural indices improved significantly after bariatric surgery. However, right-side structural indices did not change significantly. Left ventricular ejection fraction and most of the diastolic function indices improved significantly after the bariatric surgery. The subgroup analysis showed that the left ventricular mass index decreased more in long-term follow-up (≥ 12 months). In addition, subgroup analysis of studies based on surgery type did not reveal any difference in outcomes between gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy groups.

Parallel improvement of systolic function with surgical weight loss in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction: a systematic review and patient-level meta-analysis. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2021; 18:433-438. [PMID: 35058131 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2021.12.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 12/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Morbid obesity (MO) is an increasingly common condition in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Although substantial weight loss in morbidly obese patients has proved to slow the progression of heart failure, parallel alteration of ejection fraction (EF) and New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class along with post-bariatric surgery weight loss is yet to be determined. OBJECTIVES This systematic review aimed to measure the effect of bariatric weight loss on EF and NYHA functional class in patients with HFrEF. METHODS A systematic literature review was performed in Medline/PubMed to identify studies in patients with MO and pre-existing HFrEF, who underwent bariatric surgery. RESULTS A total of 11 studies encompassing 136 patients with HFrEF undergoing bariatric surgery for MO were included. Six studies provided patient-level data on 37 cases. Patients lost an average body mass index (BMI) of 12.9 ± 4.2 kg/m2 (5.1 to 23 kg/m2) after an average follow up of 22.43 ± 18.6 months (2-89 mo). There was a direct correlation between BMI loss and EF improvement (r = 0.61, P < .0001), but not between BMI loss and NYHA functional class changes (r = 0.17, P = .4). CONCLUSION Weight loss induced by bariatric surgery results in parallel EF increase in patients with MO and HFrEF. However, current data does not indicate a parallel improvement of clinical symptoms (NYHA functional class) along with such an increase in EF in this population of patients.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) increases significantly in postmenopausal women. Although obesity is a risk factor for left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD), the mechanisms that link the cessation of ovarian hormone production, and particularly estrogens, to the development of obesity, LVDD, and HFpEF in aging females are unclear. Clinical, and epidemiologic studies show that postmenopausal women with abdominal obesity (defined by waist circumference) are at greater risk for developing HFpEF than men or women without abdominal obesity. The study presents a review of clinical data that support a mechanistic link between estrogen loss plus obesity and left ventricular remodeling with LVDD. It also seeks to discuss potential cell and molecular mechanisms for estrogen-mediated protection against adverse adipocyte cell types, tissue depots, function, and metabolism that may contribute to LVDD and HFpEF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity increases and surgical weight reduction decreases the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF). We hypothesized that surgically induced weight loss may favorably affect left atrial (LA) mechanical function measured by longitudinal strain, which has recently emerged as an independent imaging biomarker of increased AF and HF risk. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated echocardiograms performed before and 12.2 ± 2.2 months after bariatric surgery in 65 patients with severe obesity (mean age 39 [36; 47] years, 72% of females) with no known cardiac disease or arrhythmia. The LA mechanical function was measured by the longitudinal strain using the semi-automatic speckle tracking method. RESULTS After surgery, body mass index decreased from 43.72 ± 4.34 to 30.04 ± 4.33 kg/m2. We observed a significant improvement in all components of the LA strain. LA reservoir strain (LASR) and LA conduit strain (LASCD) significantly increased (35.7% vs 38.95%, p = 0.0005 and - 19.6% vs - 24.4%, p < 0.0001) and LA contraction strain (LASCT) significantly decreased (- 16% vs - 14%, p = 0.0075). There was a significant correlation between an increase in LASR and LASCD and the improvement in parameters of left ventricular diastolic and longitudinal systolic function (increase in E' and MAPSE). Another significant correlation was identified between the decrease in LASCT and an improvement in LA function (decrease in A'). CONCLUSIONS The left atrial mechanical function improves after bariatric surgery. It is partially explained by the beneficial effect of weight reduction on the left ventricular diastolic and longitudinal systolic function. This effect may contribute to decreased risk of AF and HF after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate the short-term effects of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on cardiac functions. METHODS Forty-four morbidly obese patients who underwent LSG were included in the study. The aortic systolic and diastolic diameters, left ventricular (LV) diameter, LV cardiac output and cardiac index, LV ejection fraction, LV septal and lateral wall velocities, deceleration time of the E wave, the LA volume index and atrial mechanic functions, and atrial conduction times were evaluated. RESULTS The patients' aortic stiffness index showed a significant improvement at postoperative control: 3.23 ± 0.58, 2.49 ± 0.36; p<0.001 for preoperative and postoperative aortic stiffness index, respectively. A significant reduction was observed in the LV mass and relative wall thickness (RWT) of the patients: 182.41 ± 36.87 g, 154.85 ± 24.32 g; p<0.001 and 0.42 ± 0.07, 0.39 ± 0.05; p=0.010 for the preoperative and postoperative LV mass and RWT, respectively. A statistically significant decrease was observed in total atrial conduction time and interatrial and intraatrial conduction time in the postoperative period: 120.95 ± 22.27 ms, 106.57 ± 20.46 ms; p=0.001; 13.82 ± 8.21 ms, 10.66 ± 6.78 ms; p=0.038, and 29.64 ± 14.18 ms, 24.09 ± 10.95 ms; p=0.047 for preoperative and postoperative total atrial conduction time, intraatrial electromechanical delay, and interatrial electromechanical delay, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Weight loss reduced aortic stiffness, IVS and posterior wall thickness, LAV, LAVi, LA passive emptying fraction, and atrial electromechanical delays in morbidly obese patients.

Abstract
Arterial stiffness has been identified as a powerful and independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Obesity is associated with an increased risk of aortic stiffness (AS) and adverse cardiovascular events. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the effects of weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on AS in individuals with morbid obesity by using the transthoracic echocardiography (TTE).A total of 53 patients with obesity (17 males, 36 females) who underwent LSG and did not have any known heart disease were included in the study. The AS parameters were measured with TTE. The demographic and echocardiographic data of the patients were studied before, at 1 month and 12 months after surgery.The mean age of the study group was 34.41±11.62, 68% of whom were female. There were no significant differences in terms of the standard echocardiography and Doppler measurements as compared with preoperative values (all p>0.05). When the elastic parameters of the aorta were compared, no significant differences were detected regarding aortic strain (%) ((16.28±4.11) vs (16.68±4.56), p=(0.998)), distensibility (cm2/dyn) ((6.74±1.78) vs (7.03±2.31), p=(0.997)) and Aortic Stiffness Index values ((10.73±3.84) vs (10.63±3.34), p=0.998) between baseline and first month after surgery. In the 12-month follow-up, it was determined that the aortic strain ((16.28±4.11) vs (22.74±5.79), p≤0.001) and distensibility ((6.74±1.78) vs (10.34±3.059), p<0.001)) values increased at significant levels.Weight loss by LSG improves arterial stiffness parameters in patients with obesity over a 1-year follow-up.

Abstract
There is limited information on the association of overweight and obesity with cardiac remodeling in elderly population. Therefore, we investigated whether overweight and obesity are associated with cardiac geometric structures and function in Chinese elderly. A total of 1183 hospitalized patients (aged 65–99 years) with primary hypertension were collected retrospectively in a cross-sectional study, and divided into underweight, normal weight, overweight and obesity patient groups according to their body mass index (BMI). Cardiac echocardiographic parameters were compared between the groups. BMI was 17.2 ± 1.2, 21.4 ± 1.2, 25.1 ± 1.2, 30.2 ± 2.6 kg/m2 in underweight, normal weight, overweight and obesity groups respectively. Aortic and left atrial diameter, interventricular septal and left ventricular (LV) posterior wall thickness, LV end-diastolic and end-systolic diameter, and indexed LV mass, and prevalence of E/A reversal were higher, while LV ejection fraction and fractional shortening were lower in elderly with overweight or obesity, as compared with whose with underweight or normal weight separately (All P < 0.05). However, multivariable regression analysis showed that overweight and obesity are independently related to increased LV wall thickness, end-diastolic diameter and mass (All P < 0.05). In conclusions, this study demonstrates that overweight and obesity are associated with increased LV wall thickness, end-diastolic diameter and mass in Asian elderly.

Abstract
Introduction: Obesity is associated with various diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular diseases. It affects several organ systems, including the pulmonary and cardiac systems. Furthermore, it induces pulmonary and cardiac changes that can result in right and/or left heart failure.Areas covered: In this review, authors provide an overview of obesity and cardiovascular remodeling, the individual actions of the gut hormones (like GLP-1 and PYY), the effects after bariatric/metabolic surgery and its influence on cardiac remodeling. In this review, we focussed and searched for literature in Pubmed and The Cochrane library (from the earliest date until April 2019), regarding cardiac function changes before and after bariatric surgery and literature regarding changes in gastrointestinal hormones.Expert opinion: Regarding the surgical treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases there is recognition of the importance of both weight loss (bariatric surgery) and improvement in metabolic milieu (metabolic surgery). A growing body of evidence further suggests that bariatric surgical procedures [like the Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB), or One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB)] have can improve outcomes of patients suffering from a number of cardiovascular diseases, including heart failure.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate left ventricular functions of obese patients with no known heart disease who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy by speckle tracking echocardiography in their early and medium-term postoperative follow-up. PATIENTS AND METHOD Thirty-seven obese patients (10 M, 27 F) without coronary artery disease or heart failure who had undergone LSG were included in the study. Apical four-, three-, and two-chamber images were analyzed longitudinally by conventional methods and speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) for left ventricle functions preoperatively, at the postoperative Month 1 and at the postoperative Month 6 (QLAB 6.0), using current software. RESULTS No difference was found between standard echocardiography and Doppler parameters in terms of the 1-month versus 6-month follow-up values compared to baseline. Left ventricular STE longitudinal measurements demonstrated significantly higher longitudinal strain and strain velocity parameters in the follow-up values at Month 6 compared to the values at Month 1 and at baseline. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) was -17.48 ± 1.09% in 6-month follow-up, -16.16 ± 1.26% in 1-month follow-up, and -16.06 ± 1.25% at baseline (P < .001). A significant correlation was found between delta GLS, which represents patients' GLS change in 6 months, and delta weight, which represents patients' body weight change in 6 months. CONCLUSION Obese patients who had undergone LSG were observed to have improved left ventricular function in the mid-term.

Abstract
AIMS Microvascular dysfunction is a potential factor explaining the association of obesity, insulin resistance, and vascular damage in morbidly obese subjects. The purpose of the study was to evaluate possible determinants of microcirculatory improvement 1 year after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) intervention. METHODS Thirty-seven morbidly obese subjects eligible for bariatric surgery were included in the study. Post-occlusive reactive hyperemia (PORH) of the forearm skin was measured as area of hyperemia (AH) by laser-Doppler flowmetry before LSG and after a 1-year follow-up. RESULTS After intervention, we observed a significant reduction in BMI, HOMA index, HbA1c, and a significant increase of AH in all patients after surgery; this variation was significant only in those patients having insulin resistance or prediabetes/diabetes. Although significant correlation between the increase of AH and the reduction of both BMI, HOMA index, and HbA1c was observed, BMI was the only independent predictor of AH variation after LSG at the linear regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that LSG intervention is correlated with a significant improvement in the microvascular function of morbidly obese subjects; this improvement seems to be related to the baseline degree of insulin-resistance and to the retrieval of insulin-sensitivity post-intervention.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB) surgery has been reported to effectively relieve diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, the specific mechanisms remain largely unknown. The present study was designed to determine the alterations of myocardial glucose uptake (MGU) after DJB and their effects on DCM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Duodenal-jejunal bypass and sham surgeries were carried out in diabetic rats induced by a high-fat diet and a low dose of streptozotocin, with chow-diet fed rats as controls. Bodyweight, food intake, glucose homeostasis and lipid profiles were measured at indicated time-points. Cardiac function was evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography and hemodynamic measurement. Cardiac remodeling was assessed by a series of morphometric analyses along with transmission electron microscopy. Positron-emission tomography with fluorine-18 labeled fluorodeoxyglucose was carried out to evaluate the MGU in vivo. Furthermore, myocardial glucose transporters (GLUT; GLUT1 and GLUT4), myocardial insulin signaling and GLUT-4 translocation-related proteins were investigated to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. RESULTS The DJB group showed restored systolic and diastolic cardiac function, along with significant remission in cardiac hypertrophy, cardiac fibrosis, lipid deposit and ultrastructural disorder independent of weight loss compared with the sham group. Furthermore, the DJB group showed upregulated myocardial insulin signaling, hyperphosphorylation of AKT substrate of 160 kDa (AS160) and TBC1D1, along with preserved soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor proteins, facilitating the GLUT-4 translocation to the myocardial cell surface and restoration of MGU. CONCLUSIONS The present findings provide evidence that restoration of MGU is implicated in the alleviation of DCM after DJB through facilitating GLUT-4 translocation, suggesting a potential choice for treatment of human DCM if properly implemented.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the change in the body mass index following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on the vascular morphology structure and biochemical and hemocytic parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective evaluation of 60 patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy was conducted. The relationship was evaluated between the vascular morphological parameters and biochemical and hemocytic inflammatory variables of the patients preoperatively and at 6, 12, and 18 months postoperatively. RESULTS Compared to the baseline values, a significant decrease was determined in the carotid intima media thickness at 6, 12, and 18 months (p<0.001, p<0.001, p<0.001, respectively). The compliance and distensibility values were observed to increase over time (p<0.05, p<0.001, p<0.001, respectively). A statistically significant difference was determined in the carotid intima media thickness values according to gender, with males (n:7) measuring 0.618±0.123 mm and females (n:53) measuring 0.506±0.113 mm (p<0.01). When patients were grouped as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ≤2.54 (n:41) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio>2.55 (n:19), the increasing neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio values were observed to be in proportion to the carotid intima media thickness, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). When factors affecting the vascular morphology parameters measured at baseline and throughout the study were evaluated with the correlation analysis, there was observed to be a positive correlation between the baseline carotid intima media thickness thickness and neutrophil percentage (r=0.736, p<0.001) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (r=0.676, p<0.001), and between the negative correlation and lymphocyte percentage (r=-0.628, p<0.001). CONCLUSION Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is not only a cosmetic procedure reducing the body mass index values, but it also has a beneficiary effect on vascular morphology, biochemical, and hemocytic parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Compared to healthy individuals, obese have significantly higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and cardiac output. The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiovascular hemodynamic changes before and 3 months after bariatric surgery. METHODS Patients scheduled for bariatric surgery between the 29th of September 2016 and 24th of March 2016 were included and compared with 24 healthy individuals. Hemodynamic measurements were performed preoperatively and 3 months after surgery, using the Nexfin® non-invasive continuous hemodynamic monitoring device (Edwards Lifesciences/BMEYE B.V., Amsterdam, the Netherlands). RESULTS Eighty subjects were included in this study, respectively, 56 obese patients scheduled for bariatric surgery and 24 healthy individuals. Baseline hemodynamic measurements showed significant differences in cardiac output (6.5 ± 1.6 versus 5.7 ± 1.6 l/min, p = 0.046), mean arterial pressure (107 ± 19 versus 89 ± 11 mmHg, p = 0.001), systolic (134 ± 24 versus 116 ± 18 mmHg, p = 0.001) and diastolic blood pressure (89 ± 17 versus 74 ± 10 mmHg, p = 0.001), and heart rate (87 ± 12 versus 76 ± 14 bpm, p = 0.02) between obese and healthy subjects. Three months after surgery, significant changes occurred in mean arterial pressure (89 ± 17 mmHg, p = 0.001), systolic (117 ± 24 mmHg, p = 0.001) and diastolic blood pressure (71 ± 15 mmHg, p = 0.001), stroke volume (82.2 ± 22.4 ml, p = 0.03), and heart rate (79 ± 17 bpm, p = 0.02) CONCLUSIONS: Three months after bariatric surgery, significant improvements occur in hemodynamic variables except cardiac output and cardiac index, in the patient group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study evaluated the early postoperative benefits of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on the left ventricular (LV) function and left atrial (LA) structural, mechanical, and electrical functions in severely obese patients. METHODS Thirty-two patients with severe obesity who were consecutively scheduled for LSG and 30 healthy controls were included in the study. LV global longitudinal strain (LGS), peak atrial longitudinal strain (PALS), and strain rates (S-Sr, E-Sr, and A-Sr) of the lateral and septal LA walls, and intra- and interatrial dyssynchrony periods for all subjects were evaluated using strain echocardiography. The measurements were repeated in patients 1 month after surgery. RESULTS LGS of the LV was significantly depressed in the patient group compared with the control group (p < 0.001). LA peak septal and lateral wall strain values were significantly lower in patients than in controls (both p values <0.001). LA intra- and interatrial dyssynchrony periods were longer in patients than in controls (p = 0.012 and p = 0.004, respectively). LGS significantly improved after LSG (p < 0.001). Significant reductions were noted in the LA antero-posterior diameter (p < 0.001), LA volume index (LAVI, p = 0.001), and in the mitral velocity to the early diastolic velocity of the mitral annulus ratio (E/e' ratio, p = 0.046). The PALS of the septal and lateral LA walls significantly increased (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). S-Sr, E-Sr, and A-Sr values of the septal LA wall (p = 0.049, p < 0.001, and p = 0.001, respectively) and the lateral LA wall (p = 0.009, p = 0.007, and p = 0.002, respectively) significantly improved postoperatively. Intra- and interatrial dyssynchrony significantly decreased (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). Weight loss positively correlated with changes in LGS (R = 0.39, p = 0.039), LAVI (R = 0.39, p = 0.034), intra-atrial dyssynchrony (R = 0.45, p = 0.021), interatrial dyssynchrony (R = 0.42, p = 0.038), septal LA wall peak strain (R = 0.44, p = 0.027), lateral LA wall peak strain (R = 0.46, p = 0.017), septal LA wall A-Sr (R = 0.43, p = 0.028), and lateral LA wall A-Sr (R = 0.46, p = 0.019). The comparison of postoperative findings of the patients with controls revealed that the LA diameter, both LA volume and volume index (LAVI), E/e' ratio, S-Sr and E-Sr of both lateral and septal LA walls, intra- and interatrial LA dyssynchrony of the patient group became similar to the control group (all p value >0.05). Postoperative A-Sr values of both LA walls (both p value <0.001) were higher in patients than controls. CONCLUSION The benefits of LSG on LV and LA function may be observed even in the early postoperative phase. The resulting weight loss correlates with LV and LA reverse remodeling in severely obese patients.

Abstract
Heart failure due to severe obesity is a complex disease due to multiple mechanisms, including increased body mass, inflammation, and impaired cardiac metabolism that is complicated by obesity-associated co-morbidities, such as type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea. Bariatric surgery significantly improves cardiac geometry, function, and symptoms related to obesity cardiomyopathy. There is a consistently positive impact of bariatric surgery on diastolic function with the potential to significantly improve systolic function as measured by ejection fraction in patients with advanced heart failure. For end-stage heart failure patients, including those requiring mechanical circulatory support who are ineligible for organ transplant due to morbid obesity, bariatric surgery has been successfully used for weight loss as a bridge to cardiac transplantation.

Abstract
Background—
The different effects of total body weight (TBW), fat-free mass (FFM), and fat mass (FM) on left ventricular (LV) geometry and function are complex. We investigated the associations of changes over time in TBW, FM, and FFM with changes in LV geometry and function.
Methods and Results—
We analyzed data from 1189 subjects (694 women), aged 44 to 86 years, from the baseline and the 5-year follow-up examination of the population-based SHIP (Study of Health in Pomerania). TBW was measured, and FFM and FM were calculated based on height-weight models derived from bioelectrical impedance studies. Echocardiographic measurements of LV geometry and function were performed according to the guidelines of the American Society of Echocardiography. Changes in body composition measures were associated with changes in LV geometry and function by multivariable-adjusted linear regression models. A 1-kg increase/decrease in TBW or FM was associated, respectively, with an increase/decrease of 0.89 g or 1.84 g in LV mass, whereas there was no such association on changes in FFM. Moreover, an increase in FM was associated with LV concentric remodeling and impairment of systolic and diastolic function parameters, whereas an increase in FFM was associated with LV eccentric remodeling and improved systolic and diastolic functional variables.
Conclusions—
Our findings indicate that changes in LV morphology and function depend on the type of body mass composition. Prospective data need to address whether specific changes in body composition over time may affect the risk for heart dysfunction more precisely than the change in TBW.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity in pregnancy (MO) is a risk factor for maternal and/or fetal cardiovascular system disorders. This study evaluated maternal CVS expression of microRNA-29 family and its target molecules in MO to test the hypotheses: CVS miR-29 concentrations are increased in pregnancy and decreased in MO. METHODS Non-pregnant (n=4), pregnant obese (POb, n=4), and pregnant non-obese (PnOb, n=4) baboons (Papio spp.) were studied. Maternal left ventricle (LV), left atrium (LA), and aortic arch (AA) were collected at the end of gestation. Expression of MiR-29 and elastin (ELN) mRNA were quantified. RESULTS LA miR-29 (a, c) expression was highest in PnOb. In the LV, miR-29b expression trended lower (P=.059) for PnOb animals. ELN mRNA expression correlated positively with miR-29b expression in AA (r=.76, P=.03). CONCLUSION Maternal obesity diminishes miR-29 adaptation to pregnancy. Pharmacologic, tissue-specific targeting of miRNA-29 may represent a strategy for prevention and treatment of MO complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease and has become a major concern in healthcare due to its high prevalence worldwide. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of BMI on central blood pressure (BP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) in normotensive and hypertensive patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Normotensive and hypertensive adult patients who attended the outpatient clinic of cardiovascular risk were included. Peripheral BP was obtained in the brachial artery by using an oscillometric device (OMRON M-6). Central aortic BP waveform was reconstructed from the radial artery pressure waveforms (SphygmoCor, AtCor Medical, Sydney, Australia) and central BP was calculated. Carotid-femoral PWV was measured by an automatic device (Complior, Artech, France). RESULTS We examined a total of 351 patients [50.7% women; 77 patients normal-weight (BMI < 25 kg/m)], 274 patients overweight or obese (BMI ≥25 kg/m). Central SBP showed a positive association with male sex and mean BP, but a negative association with overweight/obesity. PWV was positively associated with age, male sex, central BP, peripheral BP and BP treatment, whereas BMI of at least 25 kg/m led to a decrease in PWV in patients with the same central SBP levels. Likewise, PWV was lower in the overweight/obese group compared to the normal-weight group at the same central SBP. CONCLUSION Overweight and obesity tend to have lower central SBP as compared to lean patients, mainly in women. Further research is required to assess the interaction between body weight and vascular dynamics and their clinical implications.
