Abstract
Objectives To determine the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and associated factors. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in different regions around the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between 2022 and 2023. The questionnaire was distributed among patients who underwent LSG at different periods, ranging from six months to more than two years. The questionnaire comprised a risk factor assessment and the GERD-Health-Related Quality of Life (GERD-HRQL) questionnaire. Results A total of 387 participants with a mean age of 35.7±10.95 were included. The study included 225 females (58.1%) and 162 males (41.9%). The mean preoperative body mass index (BMI) was 44.36±8.07 kg/m2, which decreased to 28.78±6.31 kg/m2 postoperatively. Notably, dissatisfaction with general health surged from 17 (24.6%) preoperatively to 165 (42.6%) postoperatively. Despite no significant difference in GERD-HRQL scores in the group who had preoperative symptoms, 282 (72.9%) reported experiencing heartburn, and 289 (74.7%) reported bloating postoperatively. Postoperatively, 203 (52.5%) reported improved quality of life. Moreover, changes in BMI were strongly correlated with heartburn, dysphagia, odynophagia, and bloating. The postoperative prevalence of GERD was 355 (91.7%), with 318 (82.2%) of participants reporting new-onset symptoms. Sex (P=0.013), age (P=0.024), and hypercholesterolemia (P=0.046) were significantly associated with postoperative GERD severity. Conclusions The majority of participants developed GERD symptoms following surgery, with a significant proportion reporting new-onset symptoms. Sex, age, and hypercholesterolemia have emerged as significant factors for postoperative GERD severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of protein and vitamin deficiencies after bariatric surgery has been well studied, but the change in mineral status has not gotten enough attention. This study aimed to perform a meta-analysis regarding the change in mineral levels after bariatric surgery and the prevalence of postoperative mineral deficiency, with subgroup analyses of different surgical procedures, study regions, and follow-up time. METHODS CENTRAL, PubMed, and EMBASE were searched for related articles. Meta-analysis, subgroup analysis, and sensitivity analysis were performed if necessary. RESULTS A total of 107 articles with 47,432 patients were included. The most severe mineral deficiency after bariatric surgery was iron (20.1%), followed by zinc (18.3%), copper (14.4%), chlorine (12.2%), phosphorus (7.5%), and calcium (7.4%). Serum concentrations of potassium, sodium, selenium, manganese, and molybdenum showed no significant change before and after surgery. Subgroup analyses revealed that SG had fewer deficiencies in serum iron, calcium, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, and selenium than RYGB. OAGB showed a higher incidence of serum iron and zinc deficiencies than RYGB. Studies conducted in different regions also found various mineral statuses after surgery. Studies with follow-up ≥ 5 years had a lower prevalence of zinc, copper, and selenium deficiencies than follow-up < 5 years. CONCLUSION A high deficiency rate of serum iron, zinc, copper, chlorine, phosphorus, and calcium was seen after bariatric surgery. The difference in surgical procedures, study regions, and follow-up time may affect postoperative mineral status; more targeted mineral supplement programs are needed considering these influencing factors.

Abstract
Obesity is a pathology that is increasing in incidence globally and threatens public health. Currently, one of its most effective treatments is bariatric surgery, which has shown the best long-term results. One of the most frequently performed surgical procedures in this area is laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) or vertical sleeve. It is a restrictive technique that has had positive results in weight loss. Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a strange condition with a low incidence in which thoracic and abdominal organs are on the opposite side of the already-known anatomic site, seen on a sagittal plane. The high demand for laparoscopic bariatric surgeries predisposes surgeons to find rare congenital anomalies in patients. Low prevalence and the anatomic mirror image condition may be challenging even for expert surgeons. Medical teams need to have knowledge of these cases and adjust the technique and procedure to complete the surgery without complications. We present a SIT case successfully treated with LSG in a male patient in Mexico.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) continues to be one of the most popular bariatric procedures all over the world. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) frequently shows a slight elevation in patients with obesity. The effect of SG on thyroid hormones has been rarely investigated. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to assess the short-term effect of SG on thyroid functions in Egyptian patients with morbid obesity and the potential predictors of the postoperative thyroid functions. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included patients undergoing SG at kasr al ainy hospitals. The patients underwent preoperative 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative analyses of the thyroid functions and other biochemical markers. RESULTS The study included 106 patients who showed significant improvement in thyroid functions at the follow-up assessment. Twelve-month TSH positively correlated with the 12-month measures of LDL and HbA1c. TSH change at 12-month follow-up (TSH) was inversely correlated to 12-month BMI and positively correlated to preoperative TSH and 12-month percentage of total weight loss (TWL%). Univariable linear regression analysis demonstrated that preoperative TSH (p < 0.001), 12-month TWL% (p = 0.042), 12-month HbA1c (p = 0.001), and 12-month LDL (p = 0.049) were significant predictors for the 12-month TSH levels. Multivariable analysis showed that only preoperative TSH levels (p < 0.001) and 12-month HbA1c levels (p = 0.021) could affect the 12-month TSH levels. CONCLUSION The current study supports the evidence of thyroid function improvement after sleeve gastrectomy. This improvement was affected by the amount of weight loss after surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases in parallel with the increasing incidence of obesity. Hence, bariatric surgery is potentially curative in obese patients with MetS. We aim to measure the effect of bariatric surgery as well as the potential factors leading to MetS resolution in the Saudi population. METHODS A retrospective review of three tertiary care centers in Saudi Arabia was done. We identified 386 patients who have MetS and underwent bariatric surgery during the period between January 2016 and December 2018. After exclusion of patients with insufficient follow-up, data from 275 patients was analyzed. MetS diagnosis, persistence, and resolution were determined using the International Diabetes Federation consensus worldwide definition. RESULTS MetS resolution was achieved in 78%, 79%, 73%, and 82% at 1, 2, 3, and 4 years after bariatric surgery, respectively. Accumulatively, 80% achieved MetS resolution with an average follow-up period of two and a half years. Patients who experienced resolution had younger age, lower BMI, lower systolic blood pressure, lower triglycerides, lower fasting plasma glucose, and lower HbA1c preoperatively in addition to a higher percentage of excess weight loss after bariatric surgery when compared to those who had persistence of MetS. CONCLUSION More than three fourths of patients with MetS achieved resolution after bariatric surgery. Certain patient characteristics, such as young age and higher excess weight loss postoperatively, were associated with a higher chance of MetS resolution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Today, Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has recently become the most common bariatric procedure among various bariatric surgical procedures due to its advantages. The aim of this study is to investigate nutritional status, body composition and biochemical parameters following SG. METHODS This was a prospective study, the subjects were patients who underwent SG at a special obesity clinic in İstanbul, Turkey, between 01.05.2017 and 01.11.2017. The mean body mass index (BMI) of the participants was 42.15 ± 4.84 kg/m2 for men and 41.44 ± 4.34 kg/m2 for women, preoperatively. Nutritional status, some anthropometric measurements and blood sampling were taken at each visit. Data were collected and analyzed for the present study at the following periods: pre-operation (pre-op), 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after surgery. RESULTS A total of 47 SG patients (20 men, 27 women) were evaluated. The mean BMI was 30.23 ± 3.56 kg/m2 for men and 30.35 ± 4.36 kg/m2 for women after 6 months and the amount of excess weight loss (EWL) increased in the 3 months (p < .001). Mean energy, fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B1, niacin, vitamin B12, folate, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, phosphorus and iodine were above the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) recommendations. A significant association was found between protein intake and fat free mass loss in both genders after SG at 6 months (p < .05). CONCLUSION Nutrition deficiencies are common for patients after SG. Therefore, it is important to routinely monitor these patients with a professional team.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the impact of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms and to determine factors associated with the occurrence of post-LSG GERD symptoms. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a retrospective study that included all obese patients who underwent LSG in Aseer Central Hospital, during the period from August 2017 to August 2019. GERD-Health-Related Quality of Life questionnaire was used to assess the patients' pre- and postoperative GERD symptoms and their satisfaction toward their general health. RESULTS The study included 326 patients (195 males and 131 females) with a mean age of 39.43 ± 11.17 years. Postoperatively, GERD symptoms newly developed in 105 patients (32.2%), while 25 patients out of 127 with preoperative GERD symptoms (19.69%) showed resolution of symptoms. There were significant associations (p < 0.001) between the old age, smoking and existence of comorbidities, and the occurrence of postoperative heartburn and regurgitation symptoms. Postoperatively, excess weight loss (EWL) was significantly associated with postoperative regurgitation (p = 0.045) and patients showed significant improvement in their satisfaction toward their health condition even those who developed GERD symptoms. CONCLUSIONS After LSG, GERD symptoms developed in about one-third of the patients while symptoms improved in only one-fifth of patients. Older patients, smokers, patients with comorbidities, and patients with more EWL had significantly worse GERD symptoms postoperatively. Weight loss rather than GERD symptoms significantly influenced patients' satisfaction toward their general health. Further prospective studies are needed to determine the relationship between weight loss and other factors associated with post-LSG reflux and overall quality of life.

Abstract
The inverse relationship of plasma bilirubin levels with liver fat accumulation has prompted the possibility of bilirubin as a therapeutic for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Here, we used diet-induced obese mice with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease treated with pegylated bilirubin (bilirubin nanoparticles) or vehicle control to determine the impact on hepatic lipid accumulation. The bilirubin nanoparticles significantly reduced hepatic fat, triglyceride accumulation, de novo lipogenesis, and serum levels of liver dysfunction marker aspartate transaminase and ApoB100 containing very-low-density lipoprotein. The bilirubin nanoparticles improved liver function and activated the hepatic β-oxidation pathway by increasing PPARα and acyl-coenzyme A oxidase 1. The bilirubin nanoparticles also significantly elevated plasma levels of the ketone β-hydroxybutyrate and lowered liver fat accumulation. This study demonstrates that bilirubin nanoparticles induce hepatic fat utilization, raise plasma ketones, and reduce hepatic steatosis, opening new therapeutic avenues for NAFLD.

Abstract
Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare genetic autosomal recessive disorder; however, in identical twins, it may be misinterpreted as X-linked disorder. SIT describes a 270° counterclockwise rotation of the intra-abdominal organs. Laparoscopic surgery in patients with SIT may be more difficult than in normal patients due to its mirror image anatomy. We report a case of a morbidly obese patient (body mass index 36 kg/m2) with SIT who underwent successful laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. This article describes all technical details and difficulties of this operation due to the presence of SIT. When performed by an expert laparoscopic surgeon, however, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy appears to be a feasible, effective, and safe procedure to treat morbidly obese patients with SIT.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery may increase the risk of iron, vitamin B12, folate and copper deficiencies, which can cause anaemia. This review aims to critique the evidence on the prevalence of these nutritional deficiencies and the impact on anaemia in the first 12 months after surgery. PRISMA and MOOSE frameworks, the NHMRC evidence hierarchy and The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics bias tool were used to systematically critique current literature. Seventeen studies reported on deficiency prevalence with the majority being of low quality. Important confounders to serum micronutrient levels were not adequately considered. Results on the prevalence of nutritional anaemias were also lacking. Further investigation into the prevalence of iron, vitamin B12, folate and copper deficiency and its impact on anaemia in bariatric surgery is needed.

Abstract
Being overweight or obese represents an important health issue in humans and pets. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in the salivary proteome of overweight beagles after induced weight loss to better understand the physiological changes involved in this process. Five overweight/obese neutered males of pure breed beagles were evaluated. During the 3-mo period of weight loss, each animal received a strictly controlled amount of a low fat commercial diet per day. Body condition scores (BCS), body weight (BW), and serum biochemical parameters (total cholesterol, triglycerides, and C-reactive protein) were assessed weekly. Quantitative proteomics analysis by SWATH was used to evaluate the salivary proteome changes induced by weight loss treatment. BCS, BW, serum total cholesterol concentration, and abundances of 23 salivary proteins differed significantly between before and after treatment. Some of the altered protein amounts, namely of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase, fructose-bisphosphate aldolase C, and 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein, increased after weight loss. These proteins are related with the immune system, inflammatory status, oxidative stress, and glucose metabolism. The results obtained suggest a potential use of salivary proteins in monitoring physiological changes in dogs subjected to weight loss. Moreover, the type of changes identified reinforces the postulated physiological improvements, which weight loss induces. Further research is needed to determine whether the changes observed in this study are due to weight loss, dietary changes, or a combination of both.

Relationship between Serum Indirect Bilirubin Level and Insulin Sensitivity: Results from Two Independent Cohorts of Obese Patients with Impaired Glucose Regulation and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in China. Int J Endocrinol 2020; 2020:5681296. [PMID: 32802055 PMCID: PMC7411450 DOI: 10.1155/2020/5681296] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2020] [Revised: 06/01/2020] [Accepted: 06/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum bilirubin is an endogenous antioxidant that has protective effects against obesity-related metabolic diseases. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL), and indirect bilirubin (IBIL) and their relationships with insulin sensitivity in obese patients with impaired glucose regulation and type 2 diabetes mellitus (IGR/T2DM) in China. Patients and Methods. Cohort 1 comprised obese patients (n = 71) was divided into the IGR/T2DM group (n = 38, obesity with IGR/T2DM) and control group (n = 33, obesity without IGR/T2DM). Insulin sensitivity was evaluated using the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique (HEC) with glucose disposal rate (GDR, M value). Cohort 2 comprised obese patients with IGR/T2DM who underwent metabolic surgery (n = 109) as complementary to cohort 1. Insulin sensitivity was evaluated with the Matsuda Index and homeostatic model assessment of insulin sensitivity (HOMA-IS). RESULTS In cohort 1, TBIL, DBIL, and IBIL were higher within the physiological range in the IGR/T2DM group compared with the control group; IBIL was positively correlated with M value (r = 0.342, p=0.044) in the IGR/T2DM group, and multivariate logistic regression showed that IBIL might be independent protective factors against insulin resistance (odds ratio (OR) = 0.602; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.413-0.878; p=0.008). In cohort 2, at 1 month after metabolic surgery, serum bilirubin levels (TBIL, DBIL, and IBIL) increased, and the percentage change in IBIL was positively correlated with the change of the Matsuda Index (r = 0.195, p=0.045). CONCLUSIONS The relationships between different types of bilirubin and insulin sensitivity varied. Serum indirect bilirubin might be a protective factor that enhances insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of hair loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). The effects of variables on the likelihood that patients developed hair loss were also examined. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty patients who underwent LSG were enrolled in this prospective study. Demographics, hematocrit, iron, zinc, folic acid, vitamin B12, total proteins, and albumin were evaluated preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively. RESULTS Hair loss was observed in 56% of patients and particularly in 46% in females and in 10% in males. Analysis of variance indicated statistical differences for hair loss among the groups with and without hair loss concerning preoperative zinc (p < 0.001), postoperative zinc (p < 0.001), preoperative B12 (p < 0.001), postoperative B12 (p < 0.001), postoperative folic acid (p = 0.039), and postoperative use of supplements (p < 0.001). Patients with hair loss had lower values of zinc preoperatively and postoperatively compared to patients without hair loss (0.61 vs 0.81 mcg/ml) (0.46 vs 0.73 mcg/ml) and also lower values of vitamin B12 preoperatively and postoperatively compared to patients without hair loss (243.04 vs 337.41 pg/ml) (261.54 vs 325.68 pg/ml). Interestingly, the zinc levels were normal preoperatively and lower to normal levels postoperatively and the levels of vitamin B12 were lower than normal values preoperatively in patients with hair loss. Patients with hair loss had mean lower levels of postoperative folic acid of 8 ng/ml. CONCLUSION The prevalence of hair loss was 56% 6 months after LSG. Preoperative monitoring and counseling of these micronutrients may be a preventive and therapeutic measure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Altered brain volume and metabolic variables have been found in subjects with obesity. However, the role of metabolic parameters in gray matter volume (GMV) has been poorly investigated. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the metabolic parameters and brain volume in subjects with obesity. METHODS Thirty-seven subjects with obesity and 39 age and sex matched normal-weight controls were included in this study. Eighteen of the 37 participants who underwent sleeve gastrectomy were included in the longitudinal analysis. Blood samples and high-resolution 3T T1-weighted magnetic resonance images were collected. Metabolic parameters in plasma and GMV were measured. RESULTS Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gray matter reduction in several cognition-related cortices including right angular gyrus, superior occipital cortex, superior parietal cortex, and cerebellum was related to decreased creatinine, as well as increased triglyceride, HbA1c, and low-density lipoprotein in plasma in subjects with obesity. Weight loss after the surgery induced significant recovery of altered metabolic parameters and decreased gray matter volume. Furthermore, changes in the four metabolic parameters before and after the surgery were associated with changes in gray matter volume. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the gray matter reduction is related to decreased creatinine as well as increased triglyceride, HbA1c, and low-density lipoprotein in plasma in subjects with obesity.

Abstract
We aimed to make a meta-analysis regarding the effect of bariatric surgery on thyroid function in obese patients. PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL, and four Chinese databases were searched for clinical studies. Data were pooled using Review Manager 5.3, and subgroup and sensitivity analyses were performed if necessary and feasible. As a result, 24 articles were included into meta-analysis. Bariatric surgery was associated with significant decrease in TSH, FT3, and T3 levels. However, FT4, T4, and rT3 levels were not significantly changed postoperatively. In addition, bariatric surgery had a favorable effect on overt and subclinical hypothyroid, with reduction of thyroid hormone requirements postoperatively. In conclusion, TSH, FT3, and T3 decrease are expected following bariatric surgery, as well as non-significant change of T4, FT4, and rT3 levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the frequency of surgical weight loss interventions has increased in Saudi Arabia, literature describing the clinical outcomes of bariatric surgery in Saudi Arabia is limited. This study aimed to assess whether weight loss intervention improves hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in obese patients and to identify its associated factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study was carried out on 318 patients with obesity class 1 or higher (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30 kg/m2) who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass at King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between January 1, 2001 and March 31, 2017. Preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively, characteristics of patients were collected. BMI reduction was calculated, based on which patients were divided into three groups (0-9, 10-14, and >14 kg/m2). RESULTS The postoperative HbA1c was 5.83±0.9, while the baseline level was 6.74±2.1 (P=0.001). Fifty-eight of the 318 patients had diabetes. We observed significantly higher HbA1c in diabetic than in non-diabetic patients preoperatively, whereas an insignificantly different HbA1c was observed postoperatively. Among those who had minimal reduction in BMI (0-9 kg/m2), we observed significantly higher HbA1c in diabetic than in non-diabetic patients, whereas among those who had large reduction in BMI (10-14 kg/m2) and (>14 kg/m2), we observed insignificant differences in HbA1c in diabetic than in non-diabetic patients. CONCLUSION Being a diabetic patient was related to a significant reduction in HbA1c levels postoperatively. The study suggests that the reduction in HbA1c levels could be modified by BMI, wherein greater reduction in BMI leads to greater reduction in HbA1c levels.
