Abstract
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a fat depot covering the heart. No physical barrier separates EAT from the myocardium, so EAT can easily affect the underlying cardiac muscle. EAT can participate in the development and progression of heart failure with preserved (HFpEF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). In healthy humans, excess EAT is associated with impaired cardiac function and worse outcomes. In HFpEF, this trend continues: EAT amount is usually increased, and excess EAT correlates with worse function/outcomes. However, in HFrEF, the opposite is true: reduced EAT amount correlates with worse cardiac function/outcomes. Surprisingly, although EAT has beneficial effects on cardiac function, it aggravates ventricular arrhythmias. Here, we dissect these phenomena, trying to explain these paradoxical findings to find a target for novel heart failure therapies aimed at EAT rather than the myocardium itself. However, the success of this approach depends on a thorough understanding of interactions between EAT and the myocardium.

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

Abstract
Heart failure is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality around the globe. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is primarily caused by diastolic dysfunction. Adipose tissue deposition in the heart has been previously explained in the pathogenesis of diastolic dysfunction. In this article, we aim to discuss the potential interventions that can reduce the risk of diastolic dysfunction by reducing cardiac adipose tissue. A healthy diet with reduced dietary fat content can reduce visceral adiposity and improve diastolic function. Aerobic and resistance exercises also reduce visceral and epicardial fat and ameliorate diastolic dysfunction. Some medications, include metformin, glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, thiazolidinediones, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2, inhibitors, statins, ACE-Is, and ARBs, have shown different degrees of effectiveness in improving cardiac steatosis and diastolic function. Bariatric surgery has also shown promising results in this field.

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

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

Abstract
Obesity contributes to reduced life expectancy because of its link with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Yet, targeting this poorly diagnosed, ill-defined, and underaddressed modifiable risk factor remains a challenge. In this review, we emphasize that the tendency among health care professionals to amalgam all forms of obesity altogether as a single entity may contribute to such difficulties and discrepancies. Obesity is a heterogeneous condition both in terms of causes and health consequences. Attention should be given to 2 prevalent subgroups of individuals: 1) patients who are overweight or moderately obese with excess visceral adipose tissue; and 2) patients with severe obesity, the latter group having distinct additional health issues related to their large body fat mass. The challenge of tackling high-cardiovascular-risk forms of obesity through a combination of personalized clinical approaches and population-based solutions is compounded by the current obesogenic environment and economy.

Abstract
The global obesity epidemic is well established, with increases in obesity prevalence for most countries since the 1980s. Obesity contributes directly to incident cardiovascular risk factors, including dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep disorders. Obesity also leads to the development of cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular disease mortality independently of other cardiovascular risk factors. More recent data highlight abdominal obesity, as determined by waist circumference, as a cardiovascular disease risk marker that is independent of body mass index. There have also been significant advances in imaging modalities for characterizing body composition, including visceral adiposity. Studies that quantify fat depots, including ectopic fat, support excess visceral adiposity as an independent indicator of poor cardiovascular outcomes. Lifestyle modification and subsequent weight loss improve both metabolic syndrome and associated systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. However, clinical trials of medical weight loss have not demonstrated a reduction in coronary artery disease rates. In contrast, prospective studies comparing patients undergoing bariatric surgery with nonsurgical patients with obesity have shown reduced coronary artery disease risk with surgery. In this statement, we summarize the impact of obesity on the diagnosis, clinical management, and outcomes of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart failure, and arrhythmias, especially sudden cardiac death and atrial fibrillation. In particular, we examine the influence of obesity on noninvasive and invasive diagnostic procedures for coronary artery disease. Moreover, we review the impact of obesity on cardiac function and outcomes related to heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction. Finally, we describe the effects of lifestyle and surgical weight loss interventions on outcomes related to coronary artery disease, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
Our study aimed to explore the influence of bariatric surgery (BS) on heart rate (HR) variability (HRV) through a systematic review. Manuscripts were selected based on electronic searches of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL databases from the inception of each database up to year 2020, and followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol. Searching of these studies was systematized using the Population Intervention Comparison Outcome Study Design strategy. We selected randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials and cohorts from prospective studies that reported the influence of BS on HRV. We assessed the quality rating using the Black and Downs questionnaire. Following the screening and eligibility stages, 14 studies were included in the review. All studies agreed that BS promotes an increase in parasympathetic HR control and HRV and a decrease in HR. Yet the literature does not provide evidence that these outcomes are directly caused by the surgical procedure. There is limited evidence to support that patients with type 2 diabetes have greater improvement in HRV as an interim measure, to individuals without. The decrease in insulin resistance was correlated with the increase in HRV in some studies, but, other studies are unsupportive of this outcome. Improvements in 2 metabolic parameters (e.g., leptin, N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide) were connected with superior increases in HRV. This review demonstrated that BS promotes an increase in HRV, indicating improved autonomic control of HR.

Abstract
The effect of bariatric surgery on natriuretic peptide levels in patients with obesity is unclear. The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the effect of bariatric surgery on BNP and NT-proBNP levels. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched to February 2020. Primary outcomes included change in NT-proBNP or BNP levels following bariatric surgery and change in weight and body mass index (BMI). Secondary outcomes included change in blood pressure, echocardiographic findings, and heart failure symptoms. MINORS tool was used to assess quality of evidence. Twelve studies with 622 patients were included. Most patients underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) (70.5%). Mean absolute reduction in BMI was 23%. NT-proBNP levels increased significantly from baseline at 6 months (mean difference (MD) 53.67 pg/mL; 95% CI, 28.72-78.61; P = <0.001, I2 = 99%; 8 studies) and 12 months (MD 51.16 pg/mL; 95% CI, 20.46-81.86; P = 0.001, I2 = 99%; 8 studies) post-bariatric surgery. BNP levels also increased significantly at 6 months (MD 17.57 pg/mL; 95% CI, 7.62-27.51; P <0.001, I2 = 95%; 4 studies). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased significantly 12 months after surgery. Studies measuring echocardiographic findings saw improvement in LV mass and E/A ratio, but no significant change in ejection fraction. Bariatric surgery is associated with increased natriuretic peptide levels in the absence of deteriorating cardiac function, and may be associated with improved cardiac and metabolic function after the procedure.

Abstract
This review addresses the interplay between obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular diseases. It is proposed that obesity, generally defined by an excess of body fat causing prejudice to health, can no longer be evaluated solely by the body mass index (expressed in kg/m2) because it represents a heterogeneous entity. For instance, several cardiometabolic imaging studies have shown that some individuals who have a normal weight or who are overweight are at high risk if they have an excess of visceral adipose tissue-a condition often accompanied by accumulation of fat in normally lean tissues (ectopic fat deposition in liver, heart, skeletal muscle, etc). On the other hand, individuals who are overweight or obese can nevertheless be at much lower risk than expected when faced with excess energy intake if they have the ability to expand their subcutaneous adipose tissue mass, particularly in the gluteal-femoral area. Hence, excessive amounts of visceral adipose tissue and of ectopic fat largely define the cardiovascular disease risk of overweight and moderate obesity. There is also a rapidly expanding subgroup of patients characterized by a high accumulation of body fat (severe obesity). Severe obesity is characterized by specific additional cardiovascular health issues that should receive attention. Because of the difficulties of normalizing body fat content in patients with severe obesity, more aggressive treatments have been studied in this subgroup of individuals such as obesity surgery, also referred to as metabolic surgery. On the basis of the above, we propose that we should refer to obesities rather than obesity.

Abstract
The obesity epidemic is swelling to epic proportions. Obese patients often suffer from a combination of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), also known as the "metabolic syndrome." The metabolic syndrome is an independent predictor of cardiac dysfunction and cardiovascular disease and a risk factor for perioperative morbidity and mortality. In this paper, we discuss the perioperative risk factors and the need for advanced care of obese patients needing general anesthesia for (bariatric) surgical procedures based on physiological principles.

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

Complex interaction of obesity, intentional weight loss and heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Heart 2019; 106:58-68. [PMID: 31530572 DOI: 10.1136/heartjnl-2019-314770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 71] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2019] [Revised: 05/27/2019] [Accepted: 06/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the meta-analysis was to determine the association of obesity and heart failure (HF) and the cardiac impact of intentional weight loss following bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and myocardial function in obese subjects. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science were searched up to 3 April 2018. Studies reporting association and prognostic impact of obesity in HF and the impact of intentional weight loss following bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and myocardial function in obesity were included in the meta-analysis. RESULTS 4959 citations were reviewed. After exclusions, 29 studies were analysed. A 'J curve' relationship was observed between body mass index (BMI) and risk of HF with maximum risk in the morbidly obese (1.73 (95% CI 1.30 to 2.31), p<0.001, n=11). Although 'obesity paradox' was observed for all-cause mortality, the overweight group was associated with lower cardiovascular (CV) mortality (OR=0.86 (95% CI 0.79 to 0.94), n=11) with no significant differences across other BMI groups. Intentional weight loss induced by bariatric surgery in obese patients (n=9) without established HF, atrial fibrillation or known coronary artery disease, was associated with a reduction in left ventricular mass index (p<0.0001), improvement in left ventricular diastolic function (p≤0.0001) and a reduction in left atrial size (p=0.02). CONCLUSIONS Despite the increased risk of HF with obesity, an 'obesity paradox' is observed for all-cause mortality. However, the nadir for CV mortality is observed in the overweight group. Importantly, intentional weight loss was associated with improvement in indices of cardiac structure and myocardial function in obese patients. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER APP 74412.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is the most common cause of heart failure and is characterized by impaired diastolic relaxation. Bariatric surgery significantly improves diastolic relaxation, but a mechanism beyond weight loss remains unknown. OBJECTIVES We tested the hypothesis that a sleeve gastrectomy (SG) will improve diastolic dysfunction independent of weight loss due to postoperative alterations in the enterocardiac axis. SETTING University research laboratory. METHODS Male Wistar rats were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) or low-fat diet (LFD) for 10 weeks and then divided into SG-HFD, pair-fed sham HFD, ad-lib sham HFD, or ad-lib sham LFD groups (n = 9-14 per group). At least 2 months postoperatively, cardiac function, meal tolerance, glucose tolerance, and cardiac gene expression were compared between groups. RESULTS Only the SG cohort showed significant improvements in postoperative diastolic relaxation (isovolumetric relaxation time pre-SG: 14.7 ± 2.3 msec, post-SG: 11.2 ± 1.8 msec, P < .001). SG significantly increased active glucagon-like peptide-1 (P = .03). Compared to pair-fed sham HFD rats, SG-HFD rats had significantly altered mRNA cardiac gene expression, including sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2 a (SERCA2 a) (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS SG improves diastolic function independent of weight loss in a rat model of obesity with beneficial alterations in cardiac gene expression of multiple known targets related to cardiac failure, including SERCA2 a. These data support that a greater curve gastrectomy induces beneficial intracellular cardiac signaling for diastolic function mediated by the enterocardiac axis that is independent of weight loss. These findings could translate to offering metabolic surgery to patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

Abstract
Obesity, defined as a body mass index of ≥30 kg/m2 , is the most common chronic metabolic disease worldwide and its prevalence has been strongly increasing. Obesity has deleterious effects on cardiac function. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the effects of obesity and excessive weight loss due to bariatric surgery on cardiac function, structural changes and haemodynamic responses of both the left and right ventricle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity-associated systemic hypertension (HTN) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have multiple pathophysiological pathways including ectopic fat deposition, inflammation, altered adipokine profile, and increased sympathetic nervous activity. We characterized these potential mechanisms in severely obese patients with or without HTN and OSA. We also compared changes of these mechanisms at 12 months following biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) surgery according to HTN and OSA resolution. METHODS Sixty-two severely obese patients were evaluated at baseline and 12 months; 40 patients underwent BPD-DS. Blood samples, bioelectrical impedance analysis, computed tomography scan, and 24-h heart rate monitoring were performed. OSA have been determined with polysomnography and HTN with blood pressure measurement and medical file. RESULTS Patients with HTN (n = 35) and OSA (n = 32) were older men with higher ectopic fat deposition and lower parasympathetic nervous activity without difference in adipokines and inflammatory markers. Lower reduction in weight was observed in patients with unresolved HTN (-40.9 ± 3.3 kg vs. -55.6 ± 3.8 kg; p = 0.001) and OSA (-41.4 ± 10.7 kg vs. -51.0 ± 15.2 kg; p = 0.006). Visceral adipose tissue reduction was lower in patients with unresolved HTN (-171.0 ± 25.7 cm2 vs. -274.5 ± 29.0 cm2; p = 0.001) in contrast to a trend for lower abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue reduction in patients with unresolved OSA (-247.7 ± 91.5 cm2 vs. -390.5 ± 109.1 cm2; p = 0.08). At 12 months, parasympathetic activity was lowest in unresolved HTN and OSA patients, without difference in adipokines and inflammatory biomarkers. CONCLUSION Lower ectopic fat mobilization, lower level of parasympathetic nervous activity, and lower subcutaneous adiposity mobilization may play a role in the pathophysiology of unresolved HTN and OSA following BPD-DS surgery.

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

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity increases the risk of heart failure (HF), which continues to be a significant proportion of all cardiovascular diseases and affects increasingly younger populations. The cross-talk between adipose and the heart involves insulin resistance, adipokine signaling and inflammation, with the capacity of adipose tissue to mediate hemodynamic signals, promoting progressive cardiomyopathy. Areas covered: From a therapeutic perspective, there is not yet a single obesity-related pathway that when addressed, can ameliorate cardiomyopathy in obese patients and this is a matter of ongoing research. There is poor evidence of the beneficial long-term effect of small nonsurgical intentional weight loss on HF outcomes, in contrast to the field of HF accompanying severe obesity where observational studies have shown that bariatric surgery is associated with improved cardiac structure/function in severely obese patients with HF and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) as well as with improved cardiac structure/function in those with HF and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Few studies report positive outcomes in subjects with obesity and HF, both severe, who underwent bariatric surgery as a rescue treatment, including bridge to heart transplantation. Expert commentary: The fast growing prevalence of obesity will continue to require the development of appropriate interventions directed at controlling or slowing pathways of cardiac damage in these patients, but at present, bariatric surgery should be considered an option to try to decrease morbidity associated with HF in severely obese adults.

Bariatric Surgery-Induced Lower Angiopoietin-Like 2 Protein Is Associated With Improved Cardiometabolic Profile. Can J Cardiol 2017; 33:1044-1051.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plasma angiopoietin-like 2 (Angptl2), a proinflammatory protein, has been associated with obesity and diabetes. Whether weight loss induced by bariatric surgery and associated improvement of the cardiometabolic risk profile influence circulating Angptl2 levels is unknown. We tested whether biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) surgery alters plasma Angptl2 concentrations. METHODS Severely obese patients (n = 73; body mass index: 49.8 ± 7.1) underwent BPD-DS. Plasma levels of Angptl2 and metabolic biomarkers were obtained acutely (days 1 and 5) and at 6 and 12 months after surgery, and compared with results in an age- and sex-matched control group (n = 33) remaining on the waiting list. RESULTS Preoperative Angptl2 levels were high (median: 12.3 ng/mL) and correlated with metabolic and anthropometric parameters. A significant (P < 0.01) increase in Angptl2 levels, fasting glucose, insulin, and interleukin-6 levels was observed acutely postoperatively (day 1) followed by a progressive decline from day 5. Besides weight loss, Angptl2 levels were decreased at the 12-month follow-up (11.5 ± 4.7 vs 14.0 ± 4.0 ng/mL, P < 0.0001), but not at the 6-month time point. Long-term changes in plasma Angptl2 levels showed significant positive correlations with changes in fasting glucose, insulin resistance, and tumour necrosis factor-α levels, and negative correlation with changes in leptin concentration (P < 0.05). No significant correlation was observed between changes in anthropometric parameters and Angptl2. CONCLUSIONS Plasma Angptl2 levels decreased after BPD-DS in severely obese patients; no changes occurred in control participants. Lowered circulating levels of the inflammatory factor Angptl2 because of BPD-DS were closely related to favourable changes in glucose-insulin homeostasis and inflammatory profiles.

Association between nesfatin-1 levels and metabolic improvements in severely obese patients who underwent biliopancreatic derivation with duodenal switch. Peptides 2016; 86:6-12. [PMID: 27681383 DOI: 10.1016/j.peptides.2016.09.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2016] [Revised: 09/09/2016] [Accepted: 09/23/2016] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Nesfatin-1 is a neuroendocrine peptide with potent anorexigenic activity in rodents. The potential role of nesfatin-1 on the regulation of energy balance, metabolic functions and inflammation is currently debated in obese humans. In the present study, nesfatin-1 fluctuations and their associations with metabolic factors were investigated in severely obese patients who underwent biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) and severely obese controls (SOC). BASIC PROCEDURES Sixty severely obese patients who underwent BPD/DS and 15 SOC (matched for BMI and age) were included in the study. Associations between nesfatin-1 levels and body composition, glucose metabolism, lipid profile as well as inflammatory markers were evaluated at baseline and over a post-surgery12-month (12M) period. MAIN FINDINGS Body weight was reduced at 6M and at 12M in BPD/DS patients (P<0.001). Nesfatin-1 levels were reduced at 6M (women: P<0.05) and at 12M (men and women; P<0.001) in BPD/DS patients. At baseline, nesfatin-1 levels negatively correlated with weight, fat (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) in the whole population (combined BPD/DS and SOC patients). At 12M, nesfatin-1 concentrations positively correlated with weight, FM, fasting insulin, insulin resistance, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride and apoB values. At 12M, % changes in nesfatin-1 were positively associated with% changes in weight, FM, FFM, fasting insulin, insulin resistance, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, apoB and C-reactive protein. CONCLUSION Nesfatin-1 levels decrease following BPD/DS-induced weight loss and are significantly associated with parameters of metabolic health.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity among adults and children worldwide has reached epic proportions and has become a major independent risk factor for the development of heart failure (HF), in addition to a contributor of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. The implications of obesity in the development of HF involve adverse effects on cardiac structure and function. Despite all of this, in the setting of chronic HF, excess body mass is associated with improved clinical outcomes, demonstrating the presence of an obesity paradox. In this review, we will discuss the gender differences, global application, potential mechanisms and role of interventions based on fitness and purposeful weight loss as potential therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abdominal obesity and presence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) are associated with cardiac abnormalities. Among those, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is the most frequently encountered in clinical practice. Few studies evaluated the reversibility of LVDD by an approach promoting lifestyle modifications in abdominally obese subjects with MetS. METHODS We assessed the impact of a 1-year lifestyle modification program combining nutritional and physical activity counseling on LVDD and metabolic profile of abdominally obese men with MetS. Echocardiograms, oral glucose tolerance test, lipids profile, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, computed tomography scans (visceral obesity assessment), heart rate variability (HRV), as well as maximal and submaximal exercise tests were performed in participants before and after a 1-year program combining healthy eating and a physical activity/exercise program. RESULTS Fifty-one abdominally obese men participated in this study. At baseline, 86% of the participants had LVDD (n = 44). After the 1-year program, LVDD improved in 57% of participants (n = 29, P < 0.0001). All metabolic, adiposity, and exercise tolerance measures improved from baseline (P < 0.0001), but were not associated with improvement in LVDD. Participants who improved LVDD had better exercise performance at baseline. Exercise tolerance during the submaximal exercise test, parasympathetic cardiac autonomic activity, and fasting insulin predicted 50% of LVDD improvements. CONCLUSIONS There was a significant improvement in LVDD after a 1-year lifestyle intervention program in abdominally obese men with MetS, such an improvement being associated with increased exercise tolerance, enhanced HRV, and reduced insulin levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity induces cardiovascular alterations, including cardiac hypertrophy, impaired relaxation, and heart rate variability (HRV), which are associated with increased mortality. Gastric bypass surgery (GBP) reduces cardiovascular mortality, but the mechanisms involved are not clearly established. To date, the implication of postsurgical hormonal changes has not been tested. Our aim was to study the relationships between the evolution of cardiovascular functions after GBP and changes in metabolic and hormonal parameters, including glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and brain natriuretic peptide (N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)). METHODS Echocardiographic parameters, 24-h rhythmic Holter recording, plasma concentrations of GLP-1 before and after a test meal, and fasting NT-proBNP were assessed in 34 patients (M/F 2/32, age 36 ± 11 years, BMI 46 ± 6 kg/m(2)), before and 1 year after GBP. RESULTS After GBP, excess weight loss was 79 ± 20%. Blood pressure (BP), heart rate, and left ventricular mass decreased, while HRV and diastolic function (E/A ratio) improved. Plasma concentrations of NT-proBNP and postprandial (PP) GLP-1 increased. Changes in cardiovascular parameters were related to BMI and insulin sensitivity. Furthermore, the decrease in BP was independently associated with the increase of PP GLP-1 level and HRV was positively associated with NT-proBNP concentration after surgery. CONCLUSIONS The increase in endogenous GLP-1 observed after GBP was associated with decreased BP but not with improvement of other cardiovascular parameters, whereas the increase in NT-proBNP, within the physiological range, was associated with improved HRV.

Abstract
Since their discovery in 1981, the cardiac natriuretic peptides (cNP) atrial natriuretic peptide (also referred to as atrial natriuretic factor) and brain natriuretic peptide have been well characterised in terms of their renal and cardiovascular actions. In addition, it has been shown that cNP plasma levels are strong predictors of cardiovascular events and mortality in populations with no apparent heart disease as well as in patients with established cardiac pathology. cNP secretion from the heart is increased by humoral and mechanical stimuli. The clinical significance of cNP plasma levels has been shown to differ in obese and non-obese subjects. Recent lines of evidence suggest important metabolic effects of the cNP system, which has been shown to activate lipolysis, enhance lipid oxidation and mitochondrial respiration. Clinically, these properties lead to browning of white adipose tissue and to increased muscular oxidative capacity. In human association studies in patients without heart disease higher cNP concentrations were observed in lean, insulin-sensitive subjects. Highly elevated cNP levels are generally observed in patients with systolic heart failure or high blood pressure, while obese and type-2 diabetics display reduced cNP levels. Together, these observations suggest that the cNP system plays a role in the pathophysiology of metabolic vascular disease. Understanding this role should help define novel principles in the treatment of cardiometabolic disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bariatric surgery remains the most effective treatment for obesity and metabolic syndrome. Surgical benefit arises from early-phase resolution of hyperglycemia and late-phase weight loss. The adipokine chemerin is of interest given its roles in immunity, adipogenesis, and metabolism. The study objective was to examine the effects of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) on plasma chemerin in the early and late post-operative stages. METHODS 83 adults with obesity undergoing BPD-DS, 45 obese non-surgical controls, and 9 lean surgical controls were enrolled. Plasma parameters and anthropometric measures were obtained at baseline and at, early (24 h, 5 D) and late (6 months and 12 months) post-operative stages. RESULTS Plasma chemerin dropped from 176±49 ng/mL at baseline to 132±52 ng/mL 24 h after BPD-DS, rebounded to 200±66 ng/mL after 5 D, and declined to 124±51 and 110±34 ng/mL after 6 and 12 months. Plasma chemerin correlated negatively with measures of inflammation and hepatic injury and positively with measures of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and inflammation in the early and late post-operative periods, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Chemerin has a novel role in surgical injury but not hyperglycemia resolution early after BPD-DS. Over the long term, plasma chemerin declines to a new set point that is partially determined by body fat reductions.

Abstract
Severe obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and represents a major health care problem with increasing incidence worldwide. Bariatric surgery, through its efficacy and improved safety, is emerging as an important available treatment for patients with severe obesity. Classically, bariatric surgery has been described as either a restrictive or a hybrid surgery, which is a combination of restriction and malabsorption. For most severely obese patients, bariatric surgery results in the remission of major obesity-related comorbidities including type 2 diabetes mellitus, sleep apnea, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Thus, bariatric surgery reduces cardiovascular risk burden, and overall mortality risk. Early complications (< 30 days) after bariatric surgery were reported to be < 10% and tend to be lower in restrictive surgeries compared with hybrid surgeries. Most common early complications reported are gastric and anastomosis leak (1.6%-5.1%), bleeding (0.5%-3.5%), and pulmonary embolism (0.2%-1%). Long-term complications (> 30 days) might differ depending on the type of bariatric surgery. According to the type of surgery and the type of study, the 30-day operative mortality rates differ from 0.1% to 1.2%. Studies on postoperative outcomes, investigations on weight loss physiology, and mechanism of action after bariatric surgery provide a better understanding of the bariatric surgery metabolic benefits. In this article, we present an overview of bariatric procedures with their effects, including risks and benefits, on the severely obese patients' health. It provides evidence to support surgical treatment of severe obesity to achieve cardiovascular disease risk reduction in severely obese patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among people with type 2 diabetes the relationship between central obesity and cardiovascular mortality has not been definitely assessed. Moreover, NT-proBNP is negatively associated with central obesity, but no study has examined their combined effect on survival. We have examined these issues in a well-characterized population-based cohort. METHODS AND FINDINGS Survival data of 2272 diabetic people recruited in 2000 who had no other chronic disease have been updated to 31 December 2006. NT-proBNP was measured in a subgroup of 1690 patients. Cox proportional hazards modeling was employed to estimate the independent associations between cardiovascular and all-cause mortality and waist circumference. Mean age was 67.9 years, 49.3% were men. Both age and NT-proBNP were negatively correlated with waist circumference (r = -0.11, p<0.001 and r = -0.07, p = 0.002). Out of 2272 subjects, 520 deaths (221 for CV mortality) occurred during a median follow-up of 5.4 years. Central obesity was not associated with CV mortality (hazard ratio, HR, adjusted for age, sex, diabetes duration, 1.14, 95% CI 0.86-1.52). NTproBNP was a negative confounder and age a strong modifier of this relationship (p for interaction<0.001): age<70 years, fully adjusted model HR = 3.52 (1.17-10.57) and age ≥70 years, HR = 0.80 (0.46-1.40). Respective HRs for all-cause mortality were 1.86 (1.03-3.32) and 0.73 (0.51-1.04). CONCLUSIONS In diabetic people aged 70 years and lower, central obesity was independently associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, independently of the negative effect of NT-proBNP. In contrast, no effect on 6-years survival was evident in diabetic people who have yet survived up to 70 years.

Abstract
Natriuretic peptides (NPs) are a group of peptide-hormones mainly secreted from the heart, signaling via c-GMP coupled receptors. NP are well known for their renal and cardiovascular actions, reducing arterial blood pressure as well as sodium reabsorption. Novel physiological functions have been discovered in recent years, including activation of lipolysis, lipid oxidation, and mitochondrial respiration. Together, these responses promote white adipose tissue browning, increase muscular oxidative capacity, particularly during physical exercise, and protect against diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance. Exaggerated NP release is a common finding in congestive heart failure. In contrast, NP deficiency is observed in obesity and in type-2 diabetes, pointing to an involvement of NP in the pathophysiology of metabolic disease. Based upon these findings, the NP system holds the potential to be amenable to therapeutical intervention against pandemic diseases such as obesity, insulin resistance, and arterial hypertension. Various therapeutic approaches are currently under development. This paper reviews the current knowledge on the metabolic effects of the NP system and discusses potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Context Orexin is a recently identified neuropeptide hormone. Objectives Acute and long-term post-bariatric changes in Orexin and relationship to post-operative metabolic outcomes. Design and Participants Men and women undergoing biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch bariatric surgery (n = 76, BMI≥35 kg/m2) were evaluated for body composition and plasma parameters at baseline, acutely (1 and 5 days) and long-term (6 and 12 months) post-surgery. Setting University Hospital Centre, Canada. Interventions and Main Outcome Measures Groups were subdivided based on acute (average 1 and 5 day) changes in Orexin prior to weight loss: (i)>10% Orexin decrease (n = 33, OrexinDEC) and (ii)>10% Orexin increase (n = 20, OrexinINC), to evaluate impact on long-term changes. Results Both groups had comparable preoperative Orexin levels, BMI, age, sex distribution, diabetes and lipid lowering medication, plasma glucose and lipid parameters except for apolipoproteinB (p<0.007). Orexin increase was rapid and maintained throughout one year, while OrexinDEC subjects remained significantly lower throughout. Over 12 months, changes in BMI, fat mass, and %fat mass were comparable. Fasting glucose and insulin increased immediately 1-day post-operatively, decreasing rapidly (5-day) and declining thereafter with the OrexinINC group remaining lower than the OrexinDEC group throughout (p = 0.001). Similarly, plasma cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-C and HDL-C decreased at 1-day, increased slightly (5-day), except HDL-C, then decreased over 1 year, with greater decreases in OrexinINC group relative to OrexinDEC group. Conclusion Rapid postoperative increases in plasma Orexin are associated with better improvement of glucose and lipid profiles following bariatric surgery.

Changes in predicted cardiovascular disease risk after biliopancreatic diversion surgery in severely obese patients. Metabolism 2014; 63:79-86. [PMID: 24120264 DOI: 10.1016/j.metabol.2013.09.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2013] [Revised: 09/05/2013] [Accepted: 09/09/2013] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) surgery on cardiovascular risk profile and predicted cardiovascular risk in severely obese patients. MATERIALS/METHODS We compared 1-year follow-up anthropometric and metabolic profiles in severely obese who underwent BPD-DS (n = 73) with controls (severely obese without surgery) (n =3 3). The 10-year predicted risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) was estimated using the Framingham risk-tool. We assigned 10-year and lifetime predicted risks to stratify subjects into 3 groups: 1) high short-term predicted risk (≥ 10% 10-year risk or diagnosed diabetes), 2) low short-term (<10% 10-year risk)/low lifetime predicted risk or 3) low short-term/high lifetime predicted risk. RESULTS During the follow-up period, body weight and body mass index decreased markedly in the surgical group (-52.1 ± 1.9 kg and -19.0 ± 0.6 kg/m(2) respectively, p<0.001) vs. (-0.7 ± 1.0 kg and -0.3 ± 0.4 kg/m(2), p = 0.51). Weight loss in the surgical group was associated with a reduction in HbA1C (6.2% vs. 5.1%), HOMA-IR (61.5 vs. 9.3), all lipoprotein levels, as well as blood pressure (p<0.001). The 10-year CHD predicted risk decreased by 43% in women and 33% in men, whereas the estimated CHD risk in the non surgical group did not change. Before surgery, none of the women and only 18% of men showed low short-term/low lifetime predicted risk, whereas a significant proportion of subjects had high short-term predicted risk (36% in women and 12% in men). Following surgery, 52% of women and 55% of men have a low short-term/low lifetime predicted risk. CONCLUSIONS These results highlight the cardiovascular benefits of BPD-DS and suggest a positive impact on predicted CHD risk in severely obese patients. Long-term studies are needed to confirm our results and to ascertain the effects on CHD risk estimates after BPD-DS surgery.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity has increased worldwide and is a source of concern since the negative consequences of obesity start as early as in childhood. The most commonly used anthropometric tool to assess relative weight and classify obesity is the body mass index (BMI); BMI alone shows a U- or a J-shaped association with clinical outcomes and mortality. Such an inverse relationship fuels a controversy in the literature, named the 'obesity paradox', which associates better survival and fewer cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with elevated BMI afflicted with chronic diseases compared to non-obese patients. However, BMI cannot make the distinction between an elevated body weight due to high levels of lean vs. fat body mass. Generally, an excess of body fat (BF) is more frequently associated with metabolic abnormalities than a high level of lean body mass. Another explanation for the paradox is the absence of control for major individual differences in regional BF distribution. Adipose tissue is now considered as a key organ regarding the fate of excess dietary lipids, which may determine whether or not body homeostasis will be maintained (metabolically healthy obesity) or a state of inflammation/insulin resistance will be produced, with deleterious CV consequences. Obesity, particularly visceral obesity, also induces a variety of structural adaptations/alterations in CV structure/function. Adipose tissue can now be considered as an endocrine organ orchestrating crucial interactions with vital organs and tissues such as the brain, the liver, the skeletal muscle, the heart and blood vessels themselves. Thus, the evidence reviewed in this paper suggests that adipose tissue quality/function is as important, if not more so, than its amount in determining the overall health and CV risks of overweight/obesity.
