Abstract
Bariatric surgery therapy (BST) is an effective treatment for obesity; however, little is known about its impacts on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and related factors. This study aimed to evaluate changes in HRQoL and its relationship with weight loss, depression status, physical activity (PA), and nutritional habits after BST. Data were obtained before and 18 months postprocedure from 56 obese patients who underwent BST. We administered four questionnaires: Short Form-36 health survey for HRQoL, 14-item MedDiet adherence questionnaire, Rapid Assessment of PA (RAPA) questionnaire, and Beck's Depression Inventory-II. Multivariable linear regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with improvement in HRQoL. After the surgery, MedDiet adherence and HRQoL improved significantly, especially in the physical component. No changes in PA were found. Patients without previous depression have better mental quality of life, and patients who lost more than 25% of %TBWL have better results in physical and mental quality of life. In the multivariable analysis, we found that %TBWL and initial PCS (inversely) were related to the improvement in PCS and initial MCS (inversely) with the MCS change. In conclusion, BST is an effective intervention for obesity, resulting in significant weight loss and improvements in HRQoL and nutritional habits.

Abstract
Patients undergoing metabolic surgery have factors ranging from anatomo-surgical, endocrine metabolic, eating patterns and physical activity, mental health and psychological factors. Some of the latter can explain the possible pathophysiological neuroendocrine, metabolic, and adaptive mechanisms that cause the high prevalence of weight regain in postbariatric patients. Even metabolic surgery has proven to be effective in reducing excess weight in patients with obesity; some of them regain weight after this intervention. In this vein, several studies have been conducted to search factors and mechanisms involved in weight regain, to stablish strategies to manage this complication by combining metabolic surgery with either lifestyle changes, behavioral therapies, pharmacotherapy, endoscopic interventions, or finally, surgical revision. The aim of this revision is to describe certain aspects and mechanisms behind weight regain after metabolic surgery, along with preventive and therapeutic strategies for this complication.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Physical activity (PA) after metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) can influence weight loss, health status, and quality of life. Known mediators to participate in PA are enjoyment, self-efficacy, and social support. Little is known about PA behavior in MBS individuals. The aim of this study was to explore levels of PA and the PA mediators enjoyment, self-efficacy, and social support before and after MBS and to investigate changes over time. METHODS Adults scheduled to undergo MBS were recruited from a Swedish university hospital. Accelerometer-measured and self-reported PA, body weight, and PA mediators were collected at baseline and at 12 to 18 months post-surgery. RESULTS Among 90 individuals included, 50 completed the follow-up assessment and had valid accelerometer data. Sedentary time (minutes/day) was unchanged, but sedentary time as percentage of wear time decreased significantly from 67.2% to 64.5% (p<0.05). Time spent in light PA and total PA increased significantly from 259.3 to 288.7 min/day (p < 0.05) and from 270.5 to 303.5 min/day (p < 0.01), respectively. Step counts increased significantly from 6013 to 7460 steps/day (p < 0.01). There was a significant increase in self-reported PA, enjoyment, self-efficacy for exercise, and positive social support from family. The increase in PA mediators did not lead to a significant change in time spent in moderate to vigorous PA. CONCLUSION The increase in PA-mediators was not associated with an increase in moderate to vigorous PA, but the strengthened PA mediators suggest potential for an increase in moderate to vigorous PA in patients undergoing MBS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The behavior of patients undergoing metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) has been widely investigated to better understand their attitudes and to formulate effective advisory strategies. Although these elements have been studied separately, the magnitude of these behaviors still needs to be determined from a combined factors approach. This study aimed to identify the lifestyle patterns of patients who underwent MBS 5 or more years ago. METHODS In this observational study, 123 patients who underwent MBS at least 5 years ago were included. Anthropometric data, sociodemographic profile, dietary intake, physical activity level, sleeping, smoking, and alcohol consumption were collected for all participants. Lifestyle pattern was evaluated using principal component analysis (PCA) and the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) index was applied to evaluate data factorability. RESULTS PCA identified two patterns of behavior adopted by the participants in the late postoperative (PO) period (more than 5 years PO) of MBS. In the first pattern, a positive correlation was found between consumption of ultra-processed foods (r = 0.459), risky consumption of alcoholic beverages (r = 0.630), and tobacco use (r = 0.584). In the second, a positive correlation was observed between the consumption of unprocessed or minimally processed foods (r = 0.692) and more sleep time per day (r = 0.654). CONCLUSION After 5 years of PO, combined behavior analysis revealed healthy and unhealthy lifestyle patterns, which points to the relevance of permanent clinical follow-up of these patients to ensure the best health status.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Weight loss prior to bariatric-metabolic surgery (BMS) is recommended in most bariatric centers. However, there is limited high-quality evidence to support mandatory preoperative weight loss. In this study, we will evaluate whether weight gain prior to primary BMS is related to lower postoperative weight loss. METHODS A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data was performed. Preoperative weight loss (weight loss from start of program to day of surgery), postoperative weight loss (weight loss from day of surgery to follow-up), and total weight loss (weight loss from start of program to follow-up) were calculated. Five groups were defined based on patients' preoperative weight change: preoperative weight loss of >5 kg (group I), 3-5 kg (group II), 1-3 kg (group III), preoperative stable weight (group IV), and preoperative weight gain >1 kg (group V). Linear mixed models were used to compare the postoperative weight loss between group V and the other four groups (I-IV). RESULTS A total of 1928 patients were included. Mean age was 44 years, 78.6% were female, and preoperative BMI was 43.7 kg/m2. Analysis showed significantly higher postoperative weight loss in group V, compared to all other groups at 12, 24, and 36 months follow-up. Up to three years follow-up, highest total weight loss was observed in group I. CONCLUSION Weight gain before surgery should not be a reason to withhold a bariatric-metabolic operation. However, patients with higher preoperative weight loss have higher total weight loss. Therefore, preoperative weight loss should be encouraged prior to bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Background Multidisciplinary lifestyle interventions are recommended as a first step in treating weight recurrence after bariatric-metabolic surgery (BMS). However, little is known about the experience of patients and healthcare professionals (HCP) with these interventions and how they should be tailored to the patients' needs. The aim of this study was to gain more insight into the experiences and needs of patients and HCP regarding weight recurrence after BMS and an intervention to get Back on Track. In addition, attitudes towards integrating e-Health into the care program were explored. Methods A qualitative process evaluation of an intervention for weight recurrence, the Back on Track (BoT), was conducted by means of in-depth interviews and focus groups with 19 stakeholders, including patients and HCP involved in BoT. Interviews were transcribed verbatim. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis. Results Patients and HCP reported a wide array of causes of weight recurrence. Patients found it difficult to decide when weight recurrence is problematic and when they should ask for help. Patients reported feeling like the exception and ashamed, therefore experiencing a high threshold to seek help. E-Health was seen as a promising way to improve tailoring, screening, autonomy for the patient, and accessible contact. Conclusion Patients should be adequately counselled on weight recurrence after BMS and the importance of intervening early. It is important to lower the threshold for seeking help. For example by offering more long-term standard care or by adding e-Health to the intervention.

Abstract
Only in the USA, 315 billion dollars are spent annually on the medical cost of obesity in adult patients. Till now, bariatric surgery is the most effective method for treating obesity and can play an essential role in reducing the direct and indirect costs of obesity treatment. Nonetheless, there are few comprehensive guidelines which include nutrition, physical activity, and supplements, before and after surgery. The purpose of the present narrative review is to provide an updated and comprehensive practical guideline to help multidisciplinary teams. The core keywords include nutrition, diet, physical activity, exercise, supplements, macronutrients, micronutrients, weight reduction, bariatric surgery, Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, Sleeve Gastrostomy, Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding, and Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch which were searched in databases including PubMed/Medline, Cochrane, and some other sources such as Google Scholar. We answered questions in five important areas: (a) nutritional strategies before bariatric surgery, (b) nutrition after bariatric surgery, (c) physical activity before and after bariatric surgery, (d) weight regain after bariatric surgery, and (e) micronutrient assessments and recommendations before and after bariatric surgery. Some new items were added in this updated guideline including "weight regain" and "pregnancy after bariatric surgery." Other fields were updated based on new evidence and guidelines.

Abstract
PURPOSE Large inter-individual variations in post-bariatric fat-free mass loss (FFML) are observed, which might relate to differences in protein intake and physical activity across patients. We performed repetitive assessments of protein intake and physical activity before and after banded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, and examined its relations to FFML during 6 months of follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS FFML (bio-impedance analyses), protein intake (24-h dietary recalls) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA; activPAL) were assessed in 28 patients (4 males, age 42 ± 12 years) before surgery and at 1-, 3- and 6-months post-surgery. Changes in protein intake and MVPA were evaluated with mixed model analysis, whereas associations with FFML were assessed by univariate regression analysis. RESULTS Six-month FFML was -7.3 ± 3.6 kg. Protein intake decreased from 80 ± 29 g/day (pre-surgery) to 45 ± 26 g/day (1 month post-surgery (P < 0.001)) and did not improve thereafter (51 ± 21 g/day; P > 0.05). Seven participants (25%) consumed ≥ 60 g protein/day at 6 months post-surgery. Participants performed 7394 ± 2420 steps/day in 54 ± 20 min/day of MVPA, which did not change from pre- to post-surgery (P > 0.05). A higher step count (B = -0.002; 95%CI = [-0.004 - 0.000]; P = 0.048) and higher level of MVPA (B = -0.29; 95%CI = [-0.54 - -0.03]; P = 0.018) were related to a lower FFML. CONCLUSION A lower post-surgery FFML was attributable to higher MVPA levels but not protein intake. This may be due to the low total protein intake and the observation that only a minority of patients achieved a protein intake ≥ 60 g/day. Future studies should focus on interventions to increase post-bariatric protein intake and MVPA levels.

Abstract
Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is an effective treatment for patients with morbid obesity and its comorbidities. However, many patients experience weight regain (WR) after achieving their nadir weight. Establishing the definition of WR is challenging as postoperative WR has various definitions. Risk factors for WR after MBS include anatomical, racial, hormonal, metabolic, behavioral, and psychological factors, and evaluating such factors preoperatively is necessary. Long-term regular follow-up and timely treatment by a multidisciplinary team are important because WR after surgery is multi-factorial. Although lifestyle interventions that focus on appropriate dietary education, physical activity education or interventions, and behavioral psychological interventions are suggested, more well-designed studies are needed because studies evaluating intervention methods and the effectiveness of WR prevention are lacking. Anti-obesity drugs can be used to prevent and manage patients with WR after MBS; however, more research is needed to determine the timing, duration, and type of anti-obesity drugs used to prevent WR.

Bite by byte: can fitness wearables help bariatric patients lose more weight after surgery? Surg Endosc 2023:10.1007/s00464-023-10157-z. [PMID: 37286749 PMCID: PMC10338384 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-023-10157-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Multidisciplinary approaches to weight loss have been shown to improve outcomes in bariatric patients. Few studies have been performed assessing the utility and compliance of fitness tracking devices after bariatric surgery. We aim to determine whether use of an activity tracking device assists bariatric patients in improving postoperative weight loss behaviors. METHODS A fitness wearable was offered to patients undergoing bariatric surgery from 2019 to 2022. A telephone survey was conducted to elucidate the impact of the device on the patient's postoperative weight loss efforts 6 to 12 months after surgery. Weight loss outcomes of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) patients receiving the fitness wearable (FW) were compared to those of a group of SG patients who did not receive one (non-FW). RESULTS Thirty-seven patients were given a fitness wearable, 20 of whom responded to our telephone survey. Five patients reported not using the device and were excluded. 88.2% reported that using the device had a positive impact on their overall lifestyle. Patients felt that using the fitness wearable to keeping track of their progress helped them both to achieve short-term fitness goals and sustain them in the long run. From the patients that utilized the device, 44.4% of those that discontinued felt like it helped them build a routine that they maintained even after they were no longer using it. Demographic data between FW and non-FW groups (age, sex, CCI, initial BMI, and surgery BMI) did not differ significantly. The FW group trended towards greater %EWL at 1 year post-operation (65.2% versus 52.4%, p = 0.066) and had significantly greater %TWL at 1 year post-operation (30.3% versus 22.3%, p = 0.02). CONCLUSION The use of an activity tracking device enhances a patient's post-bariatric surgery experience, serving to keep patients informed and motivated, and leading to improved activity that may translate to better weight loss outcomes.

Definitions of Weight Regain After Bariatric Surgery and Their Associations with Patient Characteristics and Clinical Outcomes - A Need for a Revisit? Obes Surg 2023; 33:1390-1400. [PMID: 36995562 PMCID: PMC10156838 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-023-06528-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Definitions and prevalence of weight regain (WR) after bariatric surgery remains inconsistent and their clinical significance unclear. OBJECTIVES To assess WR five years after sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), employing six definitions; and appraise their association with patient characteristics/clinical outcomes. METHODS Consecutive patients (N = 589) who underwent LSG were followed up for 5 years. WR prevalence was calculated yearly employing six definitions. Regression analysis assessed associations between WR at 5 years, and patient characteristics (age, sex, preop BMI, number of follow-up visits, number of comorbidities) and remission of comorbidities (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia). RESULTS Sample's mean age and BMI were 34 ± 11.6 years and 43.13 ± 5.77 kg/m2, and 64% were females. Percentage of patients with WR at 2, 3, 4, and 5 years fluctuated between 2.53% and 94.18%, subject to definition, and time point. The definition "Any WR" generated the highest prevalence of WR (86-94%) across all time points. At 5 years, for patient characteristics, preoperative BMI was associated with three definitions (P 0.49 to < 0.001), sex was associated with two (P < 0.026-0.032), and number of comorbidities was associated with one definition (P = 0.01). In terms of comorbidities, only hypertension was associated with WR (one definition, P = 0.025). No other definitions of WR were associated with any of the variables under examination. CONCLUSION Weight regain is reasonably expected after BMS. WR definitions were of minor clinical significance due to weak associations with limited comorbidities. Dichotomous definitions might offer some guidance while managing individual patients. However, its utility as a comparator metric across patients/procedures requires refinements.

Short-Term Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Cardiorespiratory Response at Submaximal, Ventilatory Threshold, and Maximal Exercise in Women with Severe Obesity. Obes Surg 2023; 33:1528-1535. [PMID: 36952099 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-023-06550-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2022] [Revised: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/24/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE People with obesity have varying degrees of cardiovascular, pulmonary, and musculoskeletal dysfunction that affect aerobic exercise testing variables. Short time after bariatric surgery, these dysfunctions could affect both peak oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text] O2 peak), the gold standard for assessing cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and aerobic capacity evaluated with ventilatory threshold (VT1). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the short-term effect of bariatric surgery, i.e. before the resumption of physical activity, on submaximal, at VT1 and maximal cardiorespiratory responses in middle-aged women with severe obesity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirteen middle-aged women with severe obesity (age: 36.7 ± 2.3 years; weight: 110.5 ± 3.6 kg, BMI: 41.8 ± 1.1 kg/m2) awaiting bariatric surgery participated in the study. Four weeks before and 6 to 8 weeks after surgery, body composition was determined by bioelectrical impedance. The participants performed an incremental cycling test to [Formula: see text] O2 peak. RESULTS After bariatric surgery, all body composition parameters were reduced, absolute [Formula: see text] O2 peak and peak workload decline with a lower VT1. Relative [Formula: see text] O2 at peak and at VT1 (ml/min/kg or ml/min/kg of FFM) remained unchanged. Ventilation was lower after bariatric surgery during exercise with no change in cardiac response. CONCLUSION Our results showed that weight loss alone at short-term after bariatric surgery decreased CRF as seen by a decrease in absolute [Formula: see text] O2 peak, and peak workload with lower VT1, whereas relative [Formula: see text] O2 (ml/min/kg or ml/min/kg of FFM) during exercise remained unchanged in women with obesity. Rapid FFM loss affects cardiorespiratory responses at submaximal and maximal.

Associations of changes in physical activity and sedentary time with weight recurrence after bariatric surgery: a 5-year prospective study. Int J Obes (Lond) 2023; 47:463-470. [PMID: 36828898 PMCID: PMC9951836 DOI: 10.1038/s41366-023-01284-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing physical activity and limiting sedentary time may minimize weight recurrence after bariatric surgery. However, few studies have evaluated potential associations of objectively-measured physical activity and sedentary time with post-surgical weight recurrence over time. AIMS To evaluate associations of change in physical activity and sedentary time with weight recurrence after bariatric surgery. METHODS Participants from the Oslo Bariatric Surgery Study, a prospective cohort study, wore an ActiGraph monitor for seven days at 1- and 5 years after surgery to assess daily physical activity and sedentary time. Participants' weight was measured at in-person clinic visits. Chi-square Test and Paired-samples T-test evaluated group differences and change over time, while Pearson's Correlation, multiple logistic and linear regression investigated associations between variables. RESULTS Five years after surgery 79 participants (70.5% response rate, 81% female) (mean (sd) age: 54.0 (±9.3), BMI: 32.1 (±4.7)) had valid monitor data. Participants increased their sedentary time (71.4 minutes/day (95% CI: 54.2-88.6, p = <0.001)) and reduced daily steps (-1411.1 (95% CI: 737.8-208.4), p = <0.001), light physical activity (-54.1 min/day (95% CI: 40.9-67.2, p = <0.001)), and total physical activity (-48.2 (95% CI: 34.6-63.3), p = <0.001) from 1- to 5 years after surgery. No change was found for moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity. No associations were found between changes in steps, physical activity or sedentary time and weight recurrence. CONCLUSION Participants increased sedentary time and decreased light- and total physical activity between 1- and 5 years post-surgery. Overall, changes in physical activity and sedentary time were not associated with weight recurrence. Interventions to help patients increase physical activity and limit sedentary time after bariatric surgery are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate usual dietary intake (UDI), physical activity (PA), and their association with weight loss and body composition in patients who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) after five years in the Federal District, Brazil. METHODS We assessed anthropometry and body composition using bioimpedance, and dietary intake and PA with three nonconsecutive 24-h recalls. PC-Side was used to estimate UDI. Dietary patterns (DPs) were identified through principal component analysis, and association between UDI and PA with percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and fat-free mass (FFM) through multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS Sample (n = 124) presented mean (SD) age of 48.9 (9.4) years, median (IQR) of 9 years (7-10) post RYGB, current BMI = 32.3 kg/m² (28.8-35.7), %TWL = 24.7% (10.9), and FFM = 45.1 kg (41.1-51.9). Mean usual energy intake of 1556 kcal/d, with adequate protein intake, poor fiber intake, and excessive carbohydrate, total fat, and added sugar intake, compared to dietary guidelines. Calcium, vitamins C, D, and E presented the greatest inadequacy (15%, 24%, 32%, and 49% of individuals, respectively, reported usual intake below EAR); 83 participants were considered active/very active, according PA. DP with high energy, protein, total fat, saturated fat, and sodium intake, was negatively associated with %TWL (OR = 0.545, p = 0.037). Protein intake was positively associated with FFM (OR = 1.091, p = 0.004). PA was not associated with %TWL or FFM. CONCLUSION Participants demonstrated intake of carbohydrate, fat, fiber, added sugar not in accordance with guidelines. A DP rich in energy, protein, total fat, saturated fat, and sodium appears to decrease TWL. However, protein intake appears to increase FFM.

Abstract
This study investigated a novel technique to improve body image among women who have undergone bariatric surgery-namely, by having them focus on their body functionality (everything the body can do, rather than how it looks). Participants were 103 women (Mage = 46.61) who had undergone bariatric surgery 5-7 months prior to the study. They were randomized to the 1-week online intervention, comprising three functionality-focused writing exercises (Expand Your Horizon; Alleva et al., 2015), or to a wait-list control group. Body appreciation, appearance and functionality satisfaction, body awareness, self-objectification, self-esteem, and self-kindness were assessed at pretest, posttest, and at 1-week and 3-month follow-up. Multilevel modeling analyses showed that, compared to the control, the intervention group experienced improved body appreciation at posttest, and these improvements persisted at both follow-ups. These findings were nonsignificant when intent-to-treat analyses were performed. Both available case and intent-to-treat analyses showed that all participants experienced improvements in facets of body image across time. Qualitative analyses of participants' responses to the intervention writing exercises provided more insight. Via coding reliability thematic analysis, we identified 11 themes that together provide evidence that intervention participants experienced facets of a more positive body image, while also facing challenges to their body image and well-being. Together, findings suggest that focusing on body functionality may contribute to improved body image among women who have undergone bariatric surgery, but effects may be nuanced compared to prior functionality research among general samples of women. The study was registered retrospectively (ClinicalTrials.gov; identifier NCT04883268).

Abstract
Background During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of bariatric surgeries was decreased to ensure patient safety. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of such delays on the psychological status and weight management behaviors of waitlisted pre-bariatric surgery patients in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Materials and methods A web-based cross-sectional survey was conducted. Results were then evaluated with simple descriptive statistics and inferential analyses through the Chi-square test, one-way ANOVA, and the general linear regression model. Results Of 437 patients, 208 successfully completed the survey. Approximately half of the participants reported weight change (46.6%, n = 97), while other weight management behaviors remained unchanged. The mean Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) total score of the respondents was 8.29 ± 6.3, indicating mild depression. Higher PHQ-9 scores were associated with being a student, unhealthy dietary habits, physical inactivity, worsened psychological status, and weight gain. Among these factors, being a student was the strongest predictor of the total PHQ-9 score. Conclusion The COVID-19 pandemic significantly affected the psychological status of patients with obesity on the bariatric surgery waitlist. Since delays in bariatric surgeries could worsen patients’ psychological status, as substantiated in this study, the provision of virtual care through telemedicine and the development of policies for reintroducing bariatric surgeries for future lockdowns are highly recommended. The mean PHQ-9 score of our subjects was 8.29 ± 6.3, indicating mild depression. Higher PHQ-9 scores were linked with poor weight-management behaviors. Being a student was the strongest predictor of the total PHQ-9 score.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Bariatric surgery is the most effective and durable treatment for severe obesity. Postoperative behavioral weight management approaches are available for optimizing weight change for both short- and long-term outcomes. Recent Findings Varying settings such as groups and telemedicine along with techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy have been assessed in the post-bariatric surgery population. The assessment and application of these programs have been limited due to methodological, financial, and attrition-related constraints. Summary This review aims to summarize the current evidence for different postoperative behavioral interventions on postoperative outcomes, specifically highlighting weight loss. Future opportunities for study include mechanisms for overcoming some of the barriers to implementing these programs in clinical, non-research settings.

Abstract
Living with morbid obesity is challenging since it affects various dimensions of life. Sustainable weight loss via bariatric surgery helps people suffering from morbid obesity to lead a healthy and meaningful life. This study highlights the challenges before bariatric surgery and the impact on one’s life. A phenomenological approach was employed using in-depth interviews with 21 participants (15 females and 6 males) who had undergone surgery at least 6 months prior to the study with the mean age of 42.6 years. Due to excess body weight, the physical limitation had a serious negative impact on their social life, making them targets of bias and stigmatisation. Surgery was the best option for them to attain sustainable weight loss and to lead a new life. However, a few participants struggled with the side effects of surgery. Five themes were discovered, namely, (1) social restraint; (2) experiencing bias and stigmatisation; (3) bringing new life; (4) boosting self-esteem; and (5) facing the negative side of surgery. This study serves as a platform to explore the difficulties faced by people with morbid obesity and the changes that the participants experienced after the surgery for future intervention to curb the rising number of people with morbid obesity.

[PMID: 35501637 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-022-06049-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2021] [Revised: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this scoping review is to highlight current trends in the emerging field of technology-based physical activity interventions (TbPAI) in pre- and post-bariatric surgery. Original articles published between 2000 and 2020 on eHealth, bariatric surgery, and physical activity were identified through electronic searches of eight databases. Screening, data extraction, and charting were performed independently by two authors and disagreements were resolved by consensus. Nine full-text articles were included in this review. The studies reported that the physical activity outcomes had improved and the interventions were positively perceived by the target population. We highlight some consistent findings, as well as knowledge gaps, and suggest how future studies could be improved.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review and meta-analysis is based on randomized controlled trials evaluating the effect of physical activity on weight loss in adults undergoing bariatric surgery. The study compared certain biomarkers for individuals with and without physical activity after bariatric surgery. Secondary, the study identified potential successful interventions for the target population. METHOD PubMed, Embase, OVID, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library were searched from January 2000 to December 2020. Intervention studies on the effect of physical activity in adults after bariatric surgery were selected, included, and analyzed following the PRISMA guidelines. The primary outcome was weight loss followed by selected biomarkers. RESULTS Two independent reviewers extracted data and conducted quality assessments. Of the 11 studies included, six reported BMI, two reported fat-free mass, three reported fat mass, two reported waist-hip ratio, and two reported waist circumference. Six studies measuring change from baseline BMI reported a significant intervention effect: SMD = -0.93 (-1.65;-0.20) with high heterogeneity of included trials (I2 = 72%). There was no significant difference between control and intervention groups for other outcomes. CONCLUSION BMI as a measure of physical activity positively impacts the target population. Large-scale studies with better criteria and a longer evaluation follow-up may finalize pronounced outcomes.

Effects of bariatric surgery on cardiorespiratory fitness: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Obes Rev 2022; 23:e13408.

Abstract
Although bariatric surgery (BS) is recognized as an effective strategy for body weight loss, its impact on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is still unclear. We aimed to examine postoperative changes in CRF (VO2max/peak ) and its relationship with weight loss among adults undergoing BS. We systematically searched the WoS, PubMed, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases. Observational and intervention studies were selected reporting the presurgery and postsurgery CRF, measured by breath-by-breath VO2 or its estimation. Eleven articles (312 patients) revealed that BS leads to a reduction in absolute VO2max/peak in the short term (effect size, ES = -0.539; 95%CI = -0.708, -0.369; p < 0.001), and those patients who suffered a more significant decrease in BMI after BS also had a greater loss of absolute VO2max/peak . However, VO2max/peak relative to body weight increased after surgery (ES = 0.658; 95%CI = 0.473, 0.842; p < 0.001). An insufficient number of studies were found investigating medium and long-term changes in CRF after BS. This study provides moderate-quality evidence that the weight loss induced by BS can reduce CRF in the short term, which represents a therapeutic target to optimize BS outcomes. More high-quality studies are needed to evaluate the impact of BS on VO2max/peak in the short, medium, and long term including normalized values for fat-free mass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for patients with severe obesity, but success rates vary substantially. Exercise is recommended after bariatric surgery to reduce weight regain but the effectiveness remains undetermined on weight loss due to conflicting results. It is also unclear what should be the optimal exercise prescription for these patients. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials on the effects of exercise on body weight (BW), anthropometric measures, and body composition after bariatric surgery was performed. METHODS PubMed/MEDLINE®, EBSCO®, Web of Science® and Scopus® databases were searched to identify studies evaluating exercise effectiveness. RESULTS The analysis comprised 10 studies (n = 487 participants). Exercise favored BW (-2.51kg; p = 0.02), waist circumference (-4.14cm; p = 0.04) and body mass index (-0.84kg·m-2; p = 0.02) reduction but no improvements in body composition. Combined exercise interventions were the most effective in reducing BW (-5.50kg; p < 0.01) and body mass index (-1.86kg·m-2; p < 0.01). Interventions starting >6-months after bariatric surgery were more successful in reducing BW (-5.02kg; p < 0.01) and body mass index (-1.62kg·m-2; p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Exercise, combined exercise regimens and interventions starting >6-months after bariatric surgery were effective in promoting BW, waist circumference and body mass index reduction. Exercise following bariatric surgery does not seem to favor body composition improvements.

Abstract
Obesity is an expanding disease responsible for significant deterioration in the Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) of those who suffer from it. Bariatric Endoscopy (BE) therapies have proven to be an effective treatment for this pathology. A multidisciplinary approach is essential for the successful therapeutic management of BE. This article addresses the multidisciplinary treatment of BE by considering the possible variables that can influence treatment. In particular, the variables that can facilitate or hinder changes in patients’ habits are discussed. These include the neuropsychological, emotional, and social implications that may influence the formation of healthy habits necessary for improvement in a patient’s quality of life; the individual and environmental psychological factors that influence the monitoring of nutritional and physical activity indications; and different psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, or disorders related to eating. The main objective of BE treatment, except in certain special biological situations, must be to establish a long-term sustainable change in habits such that patients, once they reach a healthy weight, do not revert to the lifestyle that caused their obesity, as well as identifying and addressing major problems that may exist prior to, or arise during, treatment.

Is the RAND-36 an Adequate Patient-reported Outcome Measure to Assess Health-related Quality of Life in Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery? Obes Surg 2022; 32:48-54. [PMID: 34729711 PMCID: PMC8752557 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-021-05736-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2021] [Revised: 09/23/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The RAND-36 is the most frequently used patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) to evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in bariatric surgery. However, the RAND-36 has never been adequately validated in bariatric surgery. The purpose of this study was to validate the RAND-36 in Dutch patients undergoing bariatric surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS To validate the RAND-36, the following measurement properties were assessed in bariatric surgery patients: validity (the degree to which the RAND-36 measures what it purports to measure (HRQoL)), reliability (the extent to which the scores of the RAND-36 are the same for repeated measurement for patients who have not changed in HRQoL), responsiveness (the ability of the RAND-36 to detect changes in HRQoL over time). RESULTS Two thousand one hundred thirty-seven patients were included. Validity was not adequate due to the irrelevance of some items and response options, the lack of items relevant to patients undergoing bariatric surgery, and the RAND-36 did not actually measure what it was intended to measure in this study (HRQoL in bariatric surgery patients). Reliability was insufficient for the majority of the scales (the scores of patients who had not changed in HRQoL were different when the RAND was completed a second time (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) values 0.10-0.69)). Responsiveness was insufficient. CONCLUSION The RAND-36 was not supported by sufficient validation evidence in patients undergoing bariatric surgery, which means that the RAND-36 does not adequately measure HRQoL in this patient population. Future research studies should use PROMs that are specifically designed for assessing HRQoL in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bariatric surgery is effective in controlling severe obesity. However, studies investigating the impact of surgically induced weight loss on cardiorespiratory and metabolic responses during maximal effort are controversial. The aim of this study was to assess cardiorespiratory and metabolic responses in women with obesity after bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a secondary analysis on data from a pilot study with women with obesity submitted to bariatric surgery and who did not participate in a controlled physical training program. Anthropometry, pulmonary function (spirometry), and cardiorespiratory fitness (cardiopulmonary exercise testing [CPX]) were assessed before and after bariatric surgery. RESULTS Thirty-four women were included (38.7 ± 9.6 years, body mass index = 44.1 ± 6.3 kg/m2). Postoperative assessment was conducted 9.4 ± 2.7 months after surgery. After surgery, we observed a reduction in all anthropometric measurements (mean loss of 28.6 kg, p < 0.001), and improvement in spirometry values (p < 0.001). Relative VO2peak (mL/kg/min) increased slightly (Δ = 1.7; p = 0.06); however, absolute VO2peak (L/min) reduced significantly (Δ = - 0.398; p < 0.001). We also observed an increase of 1.3 min (p < 0.001) in CPX duration, a reduction of 11.3 bpm (p < 0.001) in resting heart rate, and a decrease of systolic (p = 0.02) and diastolic (p < 0.001) blood pressures at peak effort. CONCLUSION Surgically induced weight loss without exercise training improved cardiac reserve, ventilatory response, blood pressure, and resting heart rate. Cardiorespiratory fitness reflected by relative VO2peak increased slightly, despite increased tolerance to CPX.

Abstract
Background The majority of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients are not sufficiently physically active post-surgery, yet little support from the Swedish healthcare system is offered. We investigated if a dissonance-based group intervention, aiming to increase health-related quality of life after surgery, had any effect on patients’ physical activity two years post-RYGB. Methods Women undergoing RYGB surgery were recruited from five Swedish hospitals and randomized to intervention or control group (standard post-surgery care). The dissonance-based intervention was conducted three months post-RYGB and consisted of four group sessions, each with a specific topic, of which one addressed physical activity. ActiGraph GT3X+ accelerometers were used to measure physical activity at pre-RYGB, one- and two-years post-surgery. Results At pre-RYGB, 259 women were recruited and randomized (intervention n = 156 and control n = 103). Participants had a mean age of 44.7 years (SD 10.3) and pre-RYGB body mass index of 40.8 (SD 4.5) kg/m2. At two-years follow-up, 99 participants (63.5%) in intervention group and 68 (66.0%) in control group had valid accelerometer-measurements. Pre- to post-surgery increases were seen in all physical activity outcomes, but no statistically significant differences between the groups were observed at the two-years follow-up, and intervention effects were poor (d = 0.02–0.35). Conclusion To our knowledge, this is the first dissonance-based intervention targeting women undergoing RYGB surgery. At two-years follow-up, we did not observe any differences in physical activity levels between the intervention group and control group. Trial registration number: ISRCTN16417174.

Abstract
Introduction COVID-19 pandemic has lead to lockdown of population in many countries. In Spain, the state of alarm was established from March 15 to June 20, 2020. Usually this fact decreased people's mobility and physical activity, in addition to producing or exacerbating psychological disorders. Our aim was to determine the influence that this condition had over the short-term ponderal results of patients undergoing laparoscopic vertical gastrectomy from May 2019 to May 2020. Methods Case–control study for comparing the percentage of excess weight lost (%EWL) and the percentage of total weight lost (%TWL) of patients that underwent a VG during the last year, so they were affected by lockdown in April and part of March 2020 (group 1), to the %EWL and %TWL of a control group (group 2), obtained from our previous series. Results The mean %EWL in group 1 is 47.37 ± 18.59 and in group 2 is 51.13 ± 17.59, being P=.438. Meanwhile, the mean %TWL in group 1 is 21.14 ± 8.17 and in group 2 is 24.67 ± 8.01, with P=.115. Conclusions Population lockdown by COVID-19 did not get worse short-term results of vertical gastrectomy. More studies with a larger number of patients are necessary to draw firm conclusions.

Food Addiction Disorder 2 Years After Sleeve Gastrectomy; Association with Physical Activity, Body Composition, and Weight Loss Outcomes. Obes Surg 2021; 31:3444-3452. [PMID: 33934295 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-021-05420-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 04/07/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Food addiction (FA) following bariatric surgery (BS) has received a burst of attention in recent years due to its important contribution to obesity. Therefore, this study was conducted to explore the prevalence of FA disorder and its predictors 2 years after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and assess its relationship with physical activity (PA), body composition, and weight outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four hundred fifty individuals who had undergone LSG 2 years prior to the study were enrolled. FA was diagnosed using the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS). The collected data included body composition (fat mass (FM), fat-free mass (FFM)), PA, and nutritional intakes. RESULTS Eighty-nine subjects (about 20%) met the criteria for FA disorder. FA patients had significantly lower PA (p = 0.04) and higher weight (p < 0.001), BMI (p < 0.001), FM, and FFM (p = 0.01) compared to those without FA. Regarding weight and body composition changes, the finding reveals that FA patients (vs. non-FA) had a significantly less excess weight loss (EWL%) (p < 0.001) and total weight loss (TWL%) (p = 0.05) as well as a higher FFM loss (kg) (p = 0.04) (linear regression analysis). A younger age (p trend = 0.01), higher BMI (p trend = 0.04), and more excess weight (p trend = 0.03) were related to higher odds of FA disorder at second year after LSG (logistic regression analysis). CONCLUSION The results showed that FA was highly prevalent 2 years after LSG. In addition, FA disorder was associated with negative long-term outcomes following LSG. Younger individuals with more excess weight and higher BMI at baseline are more vulnerable to FA.

Abstract
Purpose Fat-free mass (FFM) loss is a concerning aspect of bariatric surgery, but little is known about its time-course and factors related with excessive FFM loss. This study examined (i) the progress of FFM loss up to 3 years post-bariatric surgery and (ii) the prevalence and determinants of excessive FFM loss. Materials and Methods A total of 3596 patients (20% males, 43.5 ± 11.1 years old, BMI = 44.2 ± 5.5 kg/m2) underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. Bioelectrical impedance analysis was performed preoperatively and 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months post-surgery. Changes in body composition were assessed by mixed model analysis. Prevalence of excessive FFM loss (based on three different cutoff values: ≥ 25%, ≥ 30% and ≥ 35% FFM loss/weight loss (= %FFML/WL)) was estimated and its determinants were assessed by linear regression analysis. Results Highest rates of FFM loss were found at 3 and 6 months post-surgery, reflecting 57% and 73% of peak FFM loss, respectively. Prevalence of excessive FFM loss ranged from 14 to 46% at 36 months post-surgery, with an older age (β = 0.14, 95%CI = 0.10–0.18, P < .001), being male (β = 3.99, 95%CI = 2.86–5.12, P < .001), higher BMI (β = 0.13, 95%CI = 0.05–0.20, P = .002) and SG (β = 2.56, 95%CI = 1.36–3.76, P < .001) as determinants for a greater %FFML/WL. Conclusion Patients lost most FFM within 3 to 6 months post-surgery. Prevalence of excessive FFM loss was high, emphasizing the need for more vigorous approaches to counteract FFM loss. Furthermore, future studies should assess habitual physical activity and dietary intake shortly after surgery in relation to FFM loss.

Abstract
This systematic review summarizes current evidence on the impact of bariatric surgery (BS) on physical performance, metabolic, and health indices in adults with obesity. This systematic review suggests that BS induced significant reductions in body weight, fat mass, and fat-free mass in individuals with obesity. Additionally, BS may improve many physical fitness and health indicators. Observed improvements manifest during a distinct period of time. To date, studies on BS and performance have been small in number, nonrandomized in design, and not controlled regarding gender distribution and/or post-surgery follow-up. Future studies should further investigate concerns associated with understanding of BS outcomes to improve these outcomes with potential benefits for quality of life, disability, mortality, morbidity, and overall BS success.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the long term, people who have undergone bariatric surgery (BS) remain overly sedentary with inadequate physical activity (PA). The purpose of this study was to apply the transtheoretical model (TTM) to (1) explore in-depth how PA is experienced years after BS and (2) identify the barriers to and facilitators of PA involved at each stage of change (SOC). METHODS Seventeen women with a mean age of 32.5 ± 3.3 years and a percentage of total weight loss of 29.6 ± 12.4 were interviewed at a mean of 9.4 ± 3.6 years after BS. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using thematic analysis. RESULTS The distribution of barriers to and facilitators of PA differed with the SOC. In progressing from the precontemplation and contemplation stages to the preparation stage, the women experienced changes in their decisional balance, supported by processes of self-reevaluation and environmental reevaluation. In shifting from preparation to the action and maintenance stages, they experienced intrinsic motivation and self-liberation processes. The relapse stage was associated with a decrease in self-efficacy to cope with life constraints. CONCLUSIONS This study presents an in-depth theory-based exploration of the dynamics of long-term engagement in PA after BS in young women, with clinical implications for providing them with better guidance toward a more physically active lifestyle.

Abstract
Background The recent COVID-19 pandemic has led several countries worldwide to confine the population. Consequently, people’s mobility and physical activity are limited in addition to a negative psychosocial effect. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of COVID-19 crisis on short-term weight loss and the remission of obesity-associated comorbidities in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Methods A case-control study was conducted comparing percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), excess weight lost (%EWL), and the remission rate of obesity-related comorbidities at the first postoperative year between patients who underwent primary SG between June 2019 and October 2019 (1-year postoperative period affected by COVID-19 lockdown; COV-group), and a control group operated between June 2018 and October 2018 (1-year postoperative period not affected by COVID-19 lockdown; CONTROL-group). Results In total, 45 patients from COV-group were compared to 57 patients from CONTROL-group. Demographic data were similar between groups. The follow-up rate at 1 year was 100%. The mean %TWL and %EWL was lower at 28.2 ± 12.7% and 67.6 ± 23.5% in COV-group patients compared to 34.3 ± 14.1% and 78.3 ± 27.2% in CONTROL-group patients at 1 year from SG (p=0.025 and p=0.036, respectively). The remission rate of obesity-related comorbidities at 1 year from SG including type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome was 57.1%, 60.0%, 71.4%, and 41.7% in COV-group and 66.7%, 72.4%, 85.3%, and 52.9% in CONTROL-group, respectively, without any statistically significant difference between groups. Conclusions The COVID-19 lockdown had a negative effect on weight loss in the first year after SG. Larger studies are needed to confirm these results, and we are expecting for a longer follow-up to evaluate the long-term impact on weight loss and comorbidities.

Abstract
PURPOSE The clinical diagnosis of an internal herniation (IH) after a Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) remains difficult; therefore, performing a CT scan is usually part of the diagnostic process. The goal of this study was to assess the incidence of IH in patients with open and closed MD (mesenteric defect) and to study if the ability to diagnose an IH with a CT scan is different between these groups. MATERIALS AND METHODS IH was defined as a visible intestine through the mesenteric defect underneath the jejunojejunostomy and/or in the Petersen's space. CT scan outcomes were compared with the clinical diagnosis of an IH. Until 31 June 2013, standard care was to leave mesenteric defects (MDs) open; after this date, they were always closed. RESULTS The incidence of IH in the primarily non-closed group was 3.9%, and in the primarily closed group, this was 1.3% (p = 0.001). In group A (non-closed MD and CT), the sensitivity of the CT scan was 80%, and specificity was 0%. In group C (closed MD and CT), the sensitivity was 64.7%, and specificity was 89.5%. In group B (non-closed, no CT), an IH was visible in 58.7% of the cases and not in 41.3%. In group D (only a re-laparoscopy), an IH was visible in 34.3% of the cases and not in 65.7%. CONCLUSIONS Using the CT scan in suspected IH is not useful in if the MDs were not closed. If the MDs were closed, then a CT scan is predictive for the diagnosis IH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few reports have examined the effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) on changes to serum albumin (Alb) and liver enzyme levels. OBJECTIVE To compare short-term post-surgery changes in serum Alb, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALKP) levels. Body composition changes were also measured and compared among three groups. DESIGN AND SETTING Retrospective cohort study conducted in Tehran, Iran. METHODS 151 OAGB, RYGB and SG patients referred to the obesity clinic of Hazrat-e Rasool General Hospital, Tehran, Iran, were evaluated. Physical characteristics and biochemical parameters were measured pre-surgery and then after three and six months. RESULTS Through repeated measurements to determine intragroup changes, significant changes in serum AST (P = 0.003) and ALT (P < 0.001) were observed in follow-ups. However, Alb levels did not change (P = 0.413). Body fat, fat-free mass and muscle mass decreased significantly in each group (P < 0.05). In a univariate general linear model for determining intergroup changes, SG showed greater decreases in ALT and AST at three and six months (P < 0.05) and in ALKP at six months (P = 0.037), compared with OAGB. There were no significant differences in Alb levels. Also, RYGB had a greater effect on reducing fat percentage (three months, P = 0.011; six months, P = 0.059) and fat mass (three months, P = 0.042) than OAGB. CONCLUSION SG and RYGB may be superior to OAGB in reducing liver enzymes and body fat, respectively. However, Alb levels showed no significant differences.

Abstract
CONTEXT Weight regain (WR) after bariatric surgery is emerging as a common clinical problem due to the increase in the number of procedures performed. Early interventions are necessary to curtail the potential recurrence of comorbid conditions. However, it is often difficult to recognize WR early enough to introduce mitigating measures because there are no current guidelines for timely diagnosis and assessment of the severity of this condition. OBJECTIVE We present a practical approach for the early recognition of WR, based on 11-year follow-up data from our multiethnic bariatric surgery patient population. METHODS We classify WR according to the rate of increase in weight relative to nadir weight, normalized per 30-day interval. We also review pertinent literature about the etiologic factors contributing to WR after bariatric surgery. RESULTS According to our algorithm, mild, moderate, and rapid WR are defined as weight increases of 0.2% to <0.5%, 0.5% to 1.0%, and more than 1.0% of nadir weight per 30 days, respectively. Treatment options, including dietary counseling, use of antiobesity medication, and consideration of surgical revision, are described. A case is presented to illustrate the utility of timely identification of WR and the importance of collaboration between bariatric surgeons, obesity medicine specialists, and dietitians. CONCLUSION Our approach emphasizes the importance of regular long-term follow-up for all bariatric surgery patients.

Weight loss after bariatric surgery: a comparison between delayed and immediate qualification according to the last resort criterion. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2020; 17:718-725. [PMID: 33468427 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2020.11.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2020] [Revised: 10/07/2020] [Accepted: 11/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In the Netherlands, patients only qualify for bariatric surgery when they have followed a 6-month mandatory weight loss program (MWP), also called the "last resort" criterion. One of the rationales for this is that MWPs result in greater weight loss. OBJECTIVES To determine weight loss during MWPs and the effect of delayed versus immediate qualification on weight loss 3 years after bariatric surgery. SETTING Outpatient clinic. METHODS This is a nationwide, retrospective study with prospectively collected data. All patients who underwent a primary bariatric procedure in 2016 were included. We compared weight loss between patients who did not qualify according to the last resort criterion at screening (delayed group) with patients that qualified (immediate group). RESULTS In total 2628 patients were included. Mean age was 44.4 years, 81.3% were female, and baseline BMI was 42.3 kg/m2. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) was the most frequently performed surgery (77.0%), followed by sleeve gastrectomy (15.8%) and banded RYGB (7.3%). The delayed group (n = 831; 32%) compared with immediate group (n = 1797; 68%), showed less percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) during the MWP (1.7% versus 3.9%, P < .001) and time between screening and surgery was longer (42.3 versus 17.5 wk, P < .001). Linear mixed model analysis showed no significant difference in %TWL at 18- (P = .291, n = 2077), 24- (P = .580, n = 1993) and 36-month (P = .325, n = 1743) follow-up. CONCLUSION This study shows that delayed qualification for bariatric surgery compared with immediate qualification does not have a clinically relevant impact on postoperative weight loss 3 years after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study evaluates whether obesogenic medications may decrease the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions. The authors of this study hypothesized that participants who took obesogenic medications would be less responsive to the intervention in the Look AHEAD trial. METHODS In the trial, 5,145 participants with overweight or obesity, aged 45 to 76 years with type 2 diabetes, were randomly assigned to an intervention (vs. support and education). In this analysis, the association of exposure to obesogenic medications and successful weight loss (≥5% and ≥10% of total weight) and fitness gain (≥1 and ≥2 metabolic equivalents) was examined. For each outcome, multiple logistic regression models were fitted. RESULTS Analytic sample sizes were 4,496 for weight-change analyses and 4,051 for fitness-change analyses. After adjusting for covariates, exposure to one or more obesogenic medications significantly decreased the odds of achieving ≥5% weight loss by 32% (odds ratio [OR] 0.68) and achieving ≥10% weight loss by 19% (OR 0.81). The association was dose-dependent-participants using two or more medications were less likely to achieve weight loss than those using one medication. Obesogenic medication exposure was not associated with decreased odds of achieving fitness gain overall. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that exposure to obesogenic medications could hinder successful weight loss in a lifestyle intervention for people with diabetes.

Abstract
Introduction Unhealthy lifestyles may hinder bariatric surgery outcomes. This non-randomized controlled study aimed to evaluate the effects of an integrated post-operative exercise-based educational and motivational program in improving behaviors, quality of life, anthropometric features, cardiorespiratory and physical fitness in bariatric patients respect to the only surgical intervention. Methods A group of adult sedentary bariatric patients chose to attend a 12-month exercise program integrated with diet education and motivational support, or to receive usual care. Dietary habits, binge eating disorder, physical activity, obesity-related quality of life, Body Mass Index, waist and hip circumference, VO2max, strength and flexibility were assessed at the start and at the end of the study in both groups. Results On a total of 82 patients enrolled, follow-up measures were obtained from 28 (85.7% females, mean age 38.2±8.7) and 42 (71.4% females, mean age 40.2±9.5) patients included in the intervention and control group, respectively. All the behavioral and physical outcomes improved significantly in the participants to the intervention, while the control group showed lesser changes, especially regarding quality of life and physical fitness. Conclusions Notwithstanding the self-selection, these results suggest that a timely postoperative behavioral multidisciplinary program for bariatric patients may be effective in establishing healthy behaviors which can lead to better surgery outcomes.

Changes in Physical Activity in Relation to Body Composition, Fitness and Quality of Life after Primary Bariatric Surgery: a Two-Year Follow-Up Study. Obes Surg 2020; 31:1120-1128. [PMID: 33331984 PMCID: PMC8249277 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-020-05009-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2020] [Revised: 09/23/2020] [Accepted: 09/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Purpose The success of bariatric surgery varies largely, which may relate to variance in adopting a physically active lifestyle. This study aimed to determine whether two-year changes in physical activity (PA) were associated with weight loss, fat-free mass, cardiorespiratory fitness and quality of life up to two years after bariatric surgery. Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, 3879 post-bariatric patients were divided into three groups: 1) decreased PA (n = 388), 2) maintained PA (n = 2002) or 3) increased PA (n = 1498). Measurements regarding PA (Baecke questionnaire), body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis), estimated cardiorespiratory fitness (Åstrand test) and health-related quality of life (RAND-36) were performed preoperatively and two years post-surgery. Results Bariatric patients with increased PA had greater excess weight loss (76.3% vs. 73.2% vs. 72.9%, P < 0.001), greater increases in %fat-free mass (Δ14.0% vs. 13.0% vs. 12.8%; P < 0.001), larger improvements in VO2max (Δ11.8 vs. 10.2 vs. 8.0 ml/kg/min, P < 0.001), and larger increases in health related quality of life subscale scores (P < 0.05) compared to patients with maintained- and decreased PA. Conclusions Bariatric patients who managed to induce improvements in habitual physical activity had better body composition, fitness and quality of life at 2 years post-surgery, compared to patients who maintained or even reduced their PA levels. These findings underscore the importance of perioperative-bariatric care programs to change lifestyle and achieve sustainable improvements in PA levels.

Surg Obes Relat Dis 2020; 16:1994-2005. [PMID: 32919909 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2020.07.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2020] [Revised: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 07/26/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying psychosocial variables associated with physical activity may lead to the development of interventions that better address the challenges to participating in physical activity experienced by postbariatric surgery patients. OBJECTIVE To examine associations between select psychosocial variables and physical activity in patients who had undergone bariatric surgery within the past 2 years. SETTINGS Bariatric surgery candidates were recruited from the Greater Pittsburgh region. METHODS Eighty-three patients who had undergone bariatric surgery self-reported current physical activity and select psychosocial constructs. In addition, participants provided retrospective information on physical activity and psychosocial constructs before surgery. RESULTS Patients increased physical activity from baseline (median = 156.00 [25th, 75th percentiles: 53.00, 600.00] kcal/week) to post surgery (median = 976.00 [25th, 75th percentiles: 344.00, 1832.00] kcal/week) (P < .001). A number of pre- to postsurgery changes in psychosocial variables were associated with change in physical activity; however, only change in fitness orientation (P = .001), change in social support from friends (P = .005), and change in self-reported weight (P = .012) emerged as predictors of change in physical activity from pre- to postsurgery. Several postsurgery psychosocial factors were also significantly associated with postsurgery physical activity, but only postsurgery fitness orientation (P < .001), social support from co-workers (P = .002), and physical function (P = .023) emerged as predictive of the amount of postsurgical PA. CONCLUSIONS Pre- and postbariatric surgery interventions aimed at increasing physical activity participation may need to target important constructs that include the encouragement of social support and strategies to enhance the effort individuals put forward to engage in physical activity, as well as a focus on enhancing physical function and awareness of weight status.

Abstract
Introducción La pandemia por COVID-19 ha obligado al confinamiento de la población en muchos países. En España, el estado de alarma se estableció desde el 15 de marzo al 20 de junio del 2020. Este hecho, por lo general, disminuyó la movilidad y la actividad física de las personas, además de producir o exacerbar alteraciones psicológicas. Nuestro objetivo es analizar la influencia que esta situación ha ejercido sobre los resultados ponderales a corto plazo de los pacientes tratados mediante una gastrectomía vertical laparoscópica entre mayo del 2019 y mayo del 2020. Métodos Estudio de casos y controles donde se compararon el porcentaje de exceso de peso perdido (%EWL) y el porcentaje de peso total perdido (%TWL) de los pacientes intervenidos en el último año y a los que ha afectado el confinamiento durante el mes de abril y parte de marzo del 2020 (grupo 1; n = 20), con el de un grupo control (grupo 2; n = 40) de nuestra casuística previa. Resultados El %EWL medio en el grupo 1 es de 47,37 ± 18,59 y en el grupo 2 es de 51,13 ± 17,59, siendo la p = 0,438. Por su parte, el %TWL medio en el grupo 1 es de 21,14 ± 8,17 mientras que en el grupo 2 es de 24,67 ± 8,01, resultando la p = 0,115. Conclusiones El confinamiento de la población por COVID-19 no empeoró los resultados ponderales a corto plazo de la gastrectomía vertical. Son necesarios más estudios con un mayor número de pacientes para obtener conclusiones más sólidas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients that have psychiatric comorbidity are thought to lose less weight than the general bariatric population and are therefore sometimes denied surgery. However, there is no scientific evidence for this assumption. The aim of this study is to evaluate the weight loss and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with psychiatric disorders who undergo bariatric surgery and compare these patients with a general bariatric population. METHOD Patients who underwent bariatric surgery in 2015 were included. Patients who received individual counselling and had a current DSM IV axis 1 or 2 diagnosis were included in the psychiatric group (n = 163), all other patients in the generic group (n = 2362).Weight and HRQoL were assessed before and 12-, 24-, 36- and 48-months after surgery. Data was analysed using regression analyses. RESULTS The maximum total weight loss (TWL) was 27.4% in the psychiatric group vs 31.0% in the generic group. Difference in %TWL between the psychiatric and generic group was significant from baseline to all follow-up moments (P < .001). Improvement of PHS was significantly higher in the generic group from baseline to 12-month (P = .002), 24-month (P = .0018), 36-month (P = .025) and 48-monthfollow-up (P = .003). Change in mental HRQoL was only different comparing baseline to 48-monthfollow-up (P = .014). CONCLUSION Although weight loss and change in physical HRQoL was lower in patients with pre-operative psychiatric disorders, results of this group were still excellent. Thus, patients with psychiatric diagnoses benefit greatly from bariatric surgery and these patients should not be denied weight loss surgery.

Standardized reporting of co-morbidity outcome after bariatric surgery: low compliance with the ASMBS outcome reporting standards despite ease of use. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2020; 16:1673-1682. [PMID: 32859526 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2020.07.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2019] [Revised: 06/24/2020] [Accepted: 07/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the publication of the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) Outcome Reporting Standards in 2015, there is still a great variety in definitions used for reporting remission of co-morbidities after bariatric surgery. This hampers meaningful comparison of results. OBJECTIVE To assess compliance with the ASMBS standards in current literature, and to evaluate use of the standards by applying them in a report on the outcomes of 5 co-morbidities after bariatric surgery. SETTING Two clinics of the Dutch Obesity Clinic, location Den Haag and Velp, and three affiliated hospitals: Haaglanden Medical Center in Den Haag, Groene Hart Hospital in Gouda, and Vitalys Clinic in Velp. METHODS A systematic search in PubMed was conducted to identify studies using the ASMBS standards. Besides, the standards were applied to a cohort of patients who underwent a primary bariatric procedure between November 2016 and June 2017. Outcomes of co-morbidities were determined at 6 and 12 months after surgery. RESULTS Ten previous studies applying ASMBS definitions were identified by the search, including 6 studies using portions of the definitions, and 4 using complete definitions for 3 co-morbidities or in a small population. In this study, the standards were applied to 1064 patients, of whom 796 patients (75%) underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and 268 patients (25%) underwent sleeve gastrectomy. At 12 months, complete remission of diabetes (glycosylated hemoglobin <6%, off medication) was reached in 63%, partial remission (glycosylated hemoglobin 6%-6.4%, off medication) in 7%, and improvement in 28% of patients (n = 232/248, 94%). Complete remission of hypertension (normotensive, off medication) was noted in 8%, partial remission (prehypertensive, off medication) in 23% and improvement in 63% (n = 397/412, 96%). Remission rate for dyslipidemia (normal nonhigh-density lipoprotein, off medication) was 57% and improvement rate was 19% (n = 129/133, 97%). Resolution of gastroesophageal reflux disease (no symptoms, off medication) was observed in 54% (n = 265/265). Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome improved in 90% (n = 157/169, 93%). CONCLUSIONS Compliance with the ASMBS standards is low, despite ease of use. Standardized definitions provided by the ASMBS guideline could be used in future research to enable comparison of outcomes of different studies and surgical procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise training optimizes cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) after bariatric surgery, but the effect of spontaneous physical activity is not well known. This study aimed to objectively quantify changes in CRF and habitual physical activity 6 months after bariatric surgery and to examine whether change in CRF was related to change in physical activity. METHODS Secondary analyses were performed on data from women who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) between 2010 and 2014. Measurements were performed before and 6 months after RYGB and included V̇O2peak (graded maximal exercise test on a cycle ergometer), habitual physical activity (Actigraph GT3x accelerometer worn during 7 days), and body composition (DXA absorptiometry). Changes after RYGB were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Relations between change in CRF and change in physical activity were analyzed with Spearman correlations adjusted on age and preoperative BMI. RESULTS Forty-five women (median [P25-P75] age, 43.0 [38.0-51.0] year; BMI, 42.6 [40.0-45.5] kg/m2) were included. Mean (SD) weight loss 6 months after RYGB was - 27.5 (7.9) kg (P < 0.001). Absolute V̇O2peak decreased by 0.35 (0.50) L/min (P < 0.001) and relative V̇O2peak tended to increase by 1.7 (5.3) mL/kg/min (P = 0.06), both with large inter-individual variability. Based on objective accelerometry data, daily steps and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity increased by 1275 (3164) steps/day and 7.6 (19.3) min/day, respectively (both P < 0.05). Change in absolute V̇O2peak was positively related to change in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (r = 0.35; P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The decrease in absolute CRF observed 6 months after RYGB might be prevented by increasing habitual physical activity. TRIAL REGISTRATION clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT01113996.

Abstract
Comparisons of effectiveness of bariatric surgery (BS) procedures encompass weight loss, metabolic/clinical outcomes, and improvements or worsening of comorbidities. Post-operative physical activity (PA) and diet influence such outcomes but are frequently not included in comparisons of effectiveness. We assessed the value and necessity of including post-operative PA/diet data when comparing effectiveness of BS. Including post-operative PA/diet data has significant benefits for BS and patients. The paper proposes an explicit preferred reporting system (Preferred REporting of post-operative PHYsical activity and Diet data in comparisons of BS effectiveness: PRE-PHYD Bariatric). Including post-operative PA/diet data could result in more accurate appraisals of effectiveness of BS procedures. This could translate into better 'individualized' BS by achieving a better 'fit' between patient and procedure.

[PMID: 32384934 PMCID: PMC7206800 DOI: 10.1186/s12955-020-01359-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2019] [Accepted: 04/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Endoscopic bariatric therapies (EBT) have demonstrated to induce weight loss and improve comorbidities in obese patients. However, little is known about its impact on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes and physical activity status. This study aimed to evaluate the change in HRQOL and physical activity following EBT induced weight loss in obese patients. Methods We approached 181 patients who underwent EBT in a standardized multidisciplinary follow-up program to participate in the study. We provided them two questionnaires-a) Short Form-36 health survey with the physical (PSC) and mental (MSC) summary component scores to capture generic HRQOL, and b) international physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ) for physical activity (PA). We administered the survey at baseline and at 9 months post-procedure. We expressed the procedure outcome as percentage total body weight loss (%TBWL). We expressed continuous variables as mean (SD) or median and categorical variables as percentages. We used non-parametric tests for comparison and performed multivariable linear regression analysis to identify factors associated with improvement in HRQOL. Results The mean age was 42.2 (11.3) years, and the mean BMI was 38 (5.9)kg/m2. A majority of them were female (n-132, 73%). The EBT included intragastric balloons (n-136, 75%) and endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (n-24, 25%). The mean %TBWL achieved after the intervention was 16.9 (9.7)%. We noticed a significant improvement in the median PSC (77.8 vs. 90.4, p < 0.001) and MSC (67 vs. 80.2, p < 0.001) scores after EBT. Similarly, we observed a significant positive change in physical activity compared to baseline (1606.2 vs. 2749 MET-minutes/week, p = < 0.001). Linear regression analysis showed an increase in %TBWL was associated with significant improvement in PSC (β = 0.193, p = 0.003) and MSC (β = 0.166, p = 0.02) scores of HRQOL, and likewise, increase in PA was independently associated with improvement in MSC (β = 0.192, p = 0.01). We did not find any difference in outcome based on gender or the type of intervention. Conclusion EBT improves HRQOL in obese patients regardless of the type of intervention. The weight loss induced by EBT and the improvement in PA positively influence the health outcomes and quality of life.

Qual Life Res 2020; 29:1847-1854.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most popular type of bariatric surgery. It has often been compared to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in terms of clinical outcomes. However, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has been sparsely studied after SG. The goal was to study HRQoL after SG using a generic (RAND-36) and an obesity-specific (impact of weight on quality of life-lite, IWQOL-lite) questionnaire and to compare the results with RYGB. METHODS HRQoL and weight were measured before and 9, 15, and 24 months after surgery. RAND-36 physical health summary (PHS) and mental health summary (MHS), and IWQOL-lite total score were calculated. A mixed model analysis was conducted to study the change in HRQoL and compare SG with RYGB. RESULTS A total of 219 patients (8.7%) underwent a SG and 2309 patients (91.3%) a RYGB. PHS, MHS, and IWQOL-lite significantly improved after SG when comparing baseline to all follow-up moments (p < 0.001 in all). There were no significant differences when comparing SG with RYGB: change in PHS (β - 0.10, 95% CI - 1.24 to 1.04, p = 0.861), MHS (β - 0.51, 95% CI - 1.56 to 0.52, p = 0.330), and IWQOL-lite (β 0.310, 95% CI - 0.85 to 1.47, p = 0.601). CONCLUSION HRQoL significantly improved after SG. In the included populations, weight loss was comparable and the extent to which HRQoL improved did not differ between SG and RYGB, when measured with the RAND-36 or IWQOL-lite. This might be partly caused by the fact that these questionnaires do not assess specific bariatric HRQoL and/or complaints.
