Yu Y, Lyo V, Groth SW. The impact of maternal bariatric surgery on long-term health of offspring: a scoping review. Pediatr Res 2023; 94:1619-1630. [PMID: 37340100 DOI: 10.1038/s41390-023-02698-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/22/2023]
Abstract
While pregnancy post-bariatric surgery has become increasingly common, little is known about whether and how maternal bariatric surgery affects the next generation. This scoping review aimed to collate available evidence about the long-term health of offspring following maternal bariatric surgery. A literature search was conducted using three databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, EMBASE) to obtain relevant human and animal studies. A total of 26 studies were included: 17 were ancillary reports from five "primary" studies (three human, two animal studies) and the remaining nine were "independent" studies (eight human, one animal studies). The human studies adopted sibling-comparison, case-control, and single-group descriptive designs. Despite limited data and inconsistent results across studies, findings suggested that maternal bariatric surgery appeared to (1) modify epigenetics (especially genes involved in immune, glucose, and obesity regulation); (2) alter weight status (unclear direction of alteration); (3) impair cardiometabolic, immune, inflammatory, and appetite regulation markers (primarily based on animal studies); and (4) not affect the neurodevelopment in offspring. In conclusion, this review supports that maternal bariatric surgery has an effect on the health of offspring. However, the scarcity of studies and heterogenous findings highlight that more research is required to determine the scope and degree of such effects. IMPACT: There is evidence that bariatric surgery modifies epigenetics in offspring, especially genes involved in immune, glucose, and obesity regulation. Bariatric surgery appears to alter weight status in offspring, although the direction of alteration is unclear. There is preliminary evidence that bariatric surgery impairs offspring's cardiometabolic, immune, inflammatory, and appetite regulation markers. Therefore, extra care may be needed to ensure optimal growth in children born to mothers with previous bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery (BS) is escalating as the most efficient and endurable therapy for severe obesity. Women's reproductive health is essential to women's quality of life and is receiving increasing attention. However, despite the high prevalence of BS among women, the effect of BS on reproductive health remains underemphasis. The purpose of this narrative review is to provide an overview of BS on women's reproductive health, including their reproductive health before, during, and after pregnancy. Although limited attention has been given, current evidence highlights the substantial implications of bariatric surgery on reproductive health and reminds us of the importance of adopting decision-making conversations about reproductive health before bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Mothers that underwent bariatric surgery are at higher risk for delivering a small-for-gestational age (SGA) infant. This phenomenon is attributed to malabsorption and rapid weight loss following surgery. We compared pregnancy outcomes in lean mice that underwent sham surgery or sleeve gastrectomy (SG). SG led to a reduction in glucose levels and an increase in postprandial levels of glucagon-like peptide 1 (Glp1) without affecting mice weight during pregnancy. Pups of SG-operated mice (SG pups) were born SGA. The placenta and pancreas of the pups were not affected by SG, although a high-fat diet caused hepatic steatosis and glucose intolerance in male SG pups. Treatment with a Glp1 receptor antagonist during pregnancy normalized the birth weight of SG pups and diminished the adverse response to a high-fat diet without affecting glucose levels of pregnant mice. The antagonist did not affect the birth weight of pups of sham-operated mice. Our findings link elevated Glp1 signaling, rather than weight loss, to the increased prevalence of SGA births following bariatric surgery with metabolic consequences for the offspring. The long-term effects of bariatric surgery on the metabolic health of offspring of patients require further investigation.

Abstract
Obesity in childbearing women leads to pregnancy-related complications such as gestational diabetes mellitus, pregnancy-associated hypertensive disorders, and macrosomia. Weight loss helps reduce these complications. Studies show bariatric surgery reduces obesity-related complications during and after pregnancy. However, bariatric surgery might be associated with adverse outcomes, such as low birth weight and small-for-gestational-age infants. In addition, several studies suggest pregnancy occurring less than a year post-bariatric surgery adversely affects pregnancy outcomes and causes micronutrients deficiency since the dramatic weight loss occurs in the first year. These adverse outcomes may lead to nutritional malabsorption, such as anemia and low vitamin B12 and folic acid levels. The review aims to overview obesity-related complications during pregnancy and the benefits and risks of bariatric surgery on pregnancy outcomes and maternal nutrition status.

Abstract
Metabolic and bariatric surgery helps women achieve a healthier weight, reduce co-morbid conditions, increase fertility rates, and improve pregnancy outcomes compared with counterparts who are obese. Breastfeeding is known to provide both infant and maternal health benefits as well. Less is known about the impact of bariatric surgery on breastfeeding. The objective of this study was to review the impact of bariatric surgery on breastfeeding following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses guidelines. PubMed and Medline databases were searched using terms such as "bariatric surgery," "postnatal care," "lactation," and "breastfeeding." Reference lists were also used to find relevant articles. A total of 49 records were identified. Abstracts were screened, and 11 observational studies were identified after meeting inclusion criteria, which included the use of original research on breastfeeding and women who have had bariatric surgery. The available research shows that breast milk after bariatric surgery is adequate in nutrients and that no long-term effects were reported in cases studies when nutrient deficiencies were corrected. Limitations include observational study design and small sample sizes. This systematic review suggests that breastfeeding after bariatric surgery should be recommended along with monitoring and micronutrient supplementation. However, additional research and increased sample sizes are needed to further examine the relationship, and such studies should be conducted to strengthen the evidence and explore ways to improve breastfeeding rates in this population.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is the most effective and durable means of treating obesity and its comorbidities. Women make up 80% of those receiving weight loss surgery and they experience improvements in fertility. Unfortunately, bariatric surgery in the context of pregnancy is associated with complications, including growth restriction and small-for-gestational age offspring (SGA). SGA offspring have a greater risk for obesity in adulthood, although the mechanism for this SGA-induced obesity is unknown. In a rat model of vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), we previously identified reductions during pregnancy in ghrelin, a stomach-derived hormone that increases appetite and induces growth hormone secretion. Here, we hypothesise that VSG offspring will have altered ghrelin signalling compared to offspring of Sham dams as a result of reduced in utero ghrelin. At postnatal day (PND)21, male and female offspring of dams that have previously received VSG have an increase in mRNA expression for the ghrelin receptor in the hypothalamus compared to Sham offspring, and the expression of GOAT is lower in females compared to males. Liver expression of endogenous ghrelin antagonist, LEAP2, is elevated at PND60 in VSG offspring. Expression of other genes in the growth hormone system (growth hormone-releasing hormone and growth hormone) were not altered. Plasma levels of total ghrelin at PND21 are also not different between VSG and Sham pups. In adult pups, 1-hour chow intake of male but not female VSG offspring given is less than Sham offspring when given 50 µg kg-1 of exogenous ghrelin by i.p. injection. These results indicate that maternal VSG surgery has an impact on ghrelin signalling in offspring and that, as adults, male VSG offspring may be functionally less responsive to ghrelin than controls.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery produces significant positive benefits to recipients such as resolution of various obesity-related comorbidities, including improved reproductive function. Females of childbearing age seek bariatric surgical remedies to improve their chance of successful pregnancy; however, limited knowledge exists on the impact of surgical weight loss to subsequently born offspring. We previously reported that circulating leptin levels were reduced in pregnant females having previously received vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) in comparison to control dams having received Sham surgery. Furthermore, the levels of leptin receptors in the VSG placenta were also reduced in comparison to controls in. These data suggest there may be a significant difference in leptin signaling during pregnancy that may produce an altered developmental environment for the offspring. Here, we investigate the adult offspring of dams having received VSG or Sham-VSG prior to pregnancy. Endogenous fasting plasma leptin levels were not different between Sham and VSG offspring. Fasting leptin receptor mRNA in the medial basal hypothalamus (MBH) was elevated in VSG offspring in comparison to Sham. Intraperitoneal administration of exogenous leptin produced reductions in acute food intake in male Sham offspring, but did not reduce food intake at any time point measured in male VSG offspring. Using Western blot, we identified elevated pSTAT3 and pSTAT3/STAT3 ratios in the MBH of post-VSG offspring in comparison to controls. Using immunohistochemistry, we found an increased number of pSTAT positive cells in the arcuate nucleus in the Sham offspring in comparison to VSG. In contrast, within the paraventricular and ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei the VSG offspring had elevated numbers of pSTAT-positive cells in comparison to controls. Collectively, these data support our hypothesis that leptin signaling is dysregulated in VSG offspring and may be partially responsible for the long-term impact of maternal bariatric surgery on the metabolic health of offspring. Pregnancies following bariatric surgeries have reduced circulating leptin and increased leptin receptors in placenta. Offspring of dams having previously received bariatric surgery have altered growth trajectories during postnatal life. The male offspring experience have elevated expression of hypothalamic leptin receptors. The bariatric offspring are non-responsive to the anorexigenic effects of exogenous leptin administration. pSTAT in the hypothalamus of post-bariatric offspring is elevated without a change in food intake. Leptin signaling may be responsible for long-term metabolic changes in post-bariatric offspring.

Abstract
In order to develop evidence-based recommendations and expert consensus for nutrition management of patients undergoing bariatric surgery and postoperative follow-up, we conducted a systematic literature search using PRISMA methodology plus critical appraisal following the SIGN and AGREE-II procedures. The results were discussed among all members of the GARIN group, and all members answered a Likert scale questionnaire to assess the degree of support for every recommendation. Patients undergoing bariatric surgery should be screened preoperatively for some micronutrient deficiencies and treated accordingly. A VLCD (Very Low-Calorie Diet) should be used for 4–8 weeks prior to surgery. Postoperatively, a liquid diet should be maintained for a month, followed by a semi-solid diet also for one month. Protein requirements (1–1.5 g/kg) should be estimated using adjusted weight. Systematic use of specific multivitamin supplements is encouraged. Calcium citrate and vitamin D supplements should be used at higher doses than are currently recommended. The use of proton-pump inhibitors should be individualised, and vitamin B12 and iron should be supplemented in case of deficit. All patients, especially pregnant women, teenagers, and elderly patients require a multidisciplinary approach and specialised follow-up. These recommendations and suggestions regarding nutrition management when undergoing bariatric surgery and postoperative follow-up have direct clinical applicability.

Abstract
Approximately 250,000 individuals seek bariatric surgery each year in the USA for the long-term resolution of obesity-related comorbidities. Greater than 80% of these individuals are women and approximately half are of child-bearing age. Although there are many positive metabolic benefits that are realized through surgical weight loss for both men and women, the various long-term hormonal, molecular, nutrient, and epigenetic changes following bariatric surgery have not been evaluated for the surgical recipient or in the context of pregnancy and the offspring. Pregnancy may be a vulnerable period of time for the bariatric surgery recipient, and thoughtful consideration of pregnancy management should be taken by health care providers and recipients alike. The purpose of this review is to explore potential etiologies of some of the gestation-specific outcomes for the mother and offspring.

Abstract
Obesity represents a major public health issue and a potential threat for people health. Moreover, the incidence of obesity has been increasing and therefore, the incidence of women with an history of bariatric surgery with a pregnancy desire has been also increased. Although the weight loss after bariatric surgery has positive effects on pregnancy outcomes, these surgical procedures may be associated with adverse outcomes as well, for example micronutrient deficiencies, dumping syndrome, surgical complications such as internal hernias, and obstetrical complications such as small for gestational age as instance. Nevertheless, physician knowledge about pregnancy management after bariatric surgery is currently insufficient and a multidisciplinary approach is therefore mandatory. The aim of this article is to provide to readers general and recent data regarding the management of pregnancy after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pregnant women who have undergone bariatric surgery must be followed to ensure healthy mother-child nutritional status. This study aimed to compare weight status of mother-child dyad after maternal bariatric surgery in public and private Brazilian healthcare system units. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective matched case-control included 19 women who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery performed by the same private clinical surgical team and 19 age- and preoperative body mass index (BMI) matched patients from a public hospital. All 38 female patients reported a postoperative spontaneous pregnancy. The T test of independent samples and Pearson chi-square test were used to investigate inter-group differences. RESULTS Patients in the private system were more frequently married (94.7% versus 68.4%, p = 0.036) and had a higher educational level (94.7% versus 36.8%, p = 0.01 for tertiary education) but lower BMI, compared with those in the public system (pre-gestational = 25.7 ± 3.2 versus 28.5 ± 5.0 kg/m2, p = 0.049; post-gestational = 24.6 ± 1.6 versus 29.0 ± 6.0 kg/m2, p = 0.040). The interval from bariatric surgery to conception was shorter among public system patients (21.1 ± 13.9 versus 43.4 ± 31.2 months, p = 0.009). In both groups, almost 90% of children were born at full term and with adequate weights. CONCLUSION Despite differences in the characteristics of public and private systems, the mother-child dyads in both groups achieved satisfactory post-bariatric surgery gestation outcomes. The type of medical system does not appear to influence pregnancy outcomes or neonatal weight status conditions.

Jäger P, Wolicki A, Spohnholz J, Senkal M. Review: Sex-Specific Aspects in the Bariatric Treatment of Severely Obese Women. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:E2734. [PMID: 32326591 PMCID: PMC7216185 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17082734] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2020] [Revised: 04/03/2020] [Accepted: 04/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
This systematic literature review aims to point out sex-specific special features that are important in the bariatric treatment of women suffering from severe obesity. A systematic literature search was carried out according to Cochrane and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines. After the literature selection, the following categories were determined: sexuality and sexual function; contraception; fertility; sex hormones and polycystic ovary syndrome; menopause and osteoporosis; pregnancy and breastfeeding; pelvic floor disorders and urinary incontinence; female-specific cancer; and metabolism, outcome, and quality of life. For each category, the current status of research is illuminated and implications for bariatric treatment are determined. A summary that includes key messages is given for each subsection. An overall result of this paper is an understanding that sex-specific risks that follow or result from bariatric surgery should be considered more in aftercare. In order to increase the evidence, further research focusing on sex-specific differences in the outcome of bariatric surgery and promising treatment approaches to female-specific diseases is needed. Nevertheless, bariatric surgery shows good potential in the treatment of sex-specific aspects for severely obese women that goes far beyond mere weight loss and reduction of metabolic risks.

Pregnancy after bariatric surgery: Consensus recommendations for periconception, antenatal and postnatal care. Obes Rev 2019; 20:1507-1522.

Abstract
The objective of the study is to provide evidence-based guidance on nutritional management and optimal care for pregnancy after bariatric surgery. A consensus meeting of international and multidisciplinary experts was held to identify relevant research questions in relation to pregnancy after bariatric surgery. A systematic search of available literature was performed, and the ADAPTE protocol for guideline development followed. All available evidence was graded and further discussed during group meetings to formulate recommendations. Where evidence of sufficient quality was lacking, the group made consensus recommendations based on expert clinical experience. The main outcome measures are timing of pregnancy, contraceptive choice, nutritional advice and supplementation, clinical follow-up of pregnancy, and breastfeeding. We provide recommendations for periconception, antenatal, and postnatal care for women following surgery. These recommendations are summarized in a table and print-friendly format. Women of reproductive age with a history of bariatric surgery should receive specialized care regarding their reproductive health. Many recommendations are not supported by high-quality evidence and warrant further research. These areas are highlighted in the paper.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity is growing worldwide, and strategies to overcome this epidemic need to be developed urgently. Bariatric surgery is a very effective treatment option to reduce excess weight and often performed in women of reproductive age. Weight loss influences fertility positively and can resolve hormonal imbalance. So far, guidelines suggest conceiving after losing maximum weight and thus recommend conception at least 12-24 months after surgery. As limited data of these suggestions exist, further evidence is urgently needed as well for weight gain in pregnancy. Oral glucose tolerance tests for the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) should not be performed after bariatric procedures due to potential hypoglycaemic adverse events and high variability of glucose levels after glucose load. This challenges the utility of the usual diagnostic criteria for GDM in accurate prediction of complications. Furthermore, recommendations on essential nutrient supplementation in pregnancy and lactation in women after bariatric surgery are scarce. In addition, nutritional deficiencies or daily intake recommendations in pregnant women after bariatric surgery are not well investigated. This review summarizes current evidence, proposes clinical recommendations in pregnant women after bariatric surgery, and highlights areas of lack of evidence and the resulting urgent need for more clinical investigations.
