The impact on obesity-related quality of life and eating satisfaction in the early period after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Asian J Endosc Surg 2024; 17:e13360.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity impairs patients' quality of life (QoL). Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a common procedure for patients with severe obesity; however, studies reporting changes in obesity-related QoL are limited. The aim of this study was to assess changes in obesity-related QoL and food tolerance in the early postoperative period. METHODS We included 20 consecutive patients who underwent LSG between May 2021 and July 2023. We evaluated changes in obesity-related QoL 6 months after surgery using an obesity and weight loss QoL questionnaire (OWLQOL) and a weight related symptom measure (WRSM). Additionally, we assessed eating satisfaction and food tolerance after surgery. RESULTS The percentages of total weight loss and excess weight loss were 28.5% and 79.1%, respectively. OWLQOL scores and WRSM changed from 36.5 to 73.0 points and from 44.0 to 15.0 points (p = .007, .007), respectively. The food tolerance score decreased from 25 to 21.2 points (p < .001), while eating satisfaction showed no significant change (p = .25). CONCLUSION Obesity-related QoL is enhanced even in the early postoperative period, without sacrificing eating satisfaction. The findings of this study may provide valuable insights for patients when considering LSG.

Improvements of lung volumes and respiratory symptoms after weight loss through laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2022; 407:2747-2754. [PMID: 35588327 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-022-02549-x] [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: 02/14/2022] [Accepted: 05/07/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated the improvement of respiratory function and airway volumes using spirometry and computed tomography (CT) in severely obese Japanese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). We also evaluated the quality of life (QOL) of enrolled patients using questionnaires. METHODS A total of 71 patients who underwent LSG at Iwate Medical University Hospital between October 2013 and September 2020 were enrolled. The changes and relationships between respiratory parameters including CT volumetry and weight-loss effects were evaluated. Improvements to QOL and bronchial asthma (BA) were also assessed before LSG and 1 year after LSG. RESULTS The mean excess weight loss percentage (%EWL) and total weight loss percentage (%TWL) were measured at 55.1% and 26.1%, respectively. The attack frequency of BA significantly decreased (6.1/month vs. 1.5/month; P < 0.001), and the disease severity decreased according to severity classification (P = 0.032). Almost spirometric parameters, lung volume (LV) (4905.0 mL vs. 5490.3 mL; P < 0.001), and airway volume (AV) (108.6 mL vs. 119.3 mL; P = 0.022) significantly improved. The change of functional residual capacity (FRC) was correlated with both %EWL (ρ = 0.69, P < 0.001) and %TWL (ρ = 0.62, P < 0.001). The increase of LV (ρ = 0.79, P < 0.001) and AV (ρ = 0.69, P < 0.001) were correlated with the increase of FRC. Scores of QOL questionnaires dramatically became better owing to improvements in dyspnea. CONCLUSION Weight loss effects and the reduction of body fat mass correlated significantly with increase in LV and AV. Improvements of respiratory functions after LSG contributes to QOL and BA symptoms.

Bariatric surgery versus medical treatment in mildly obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Japan: Propensity score-matched analysis on real-world data. J Diabetes Investig 2022; 13:74-84. [PMID: 34265175 PMCID: PMC8756306 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.13631] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2021] [Revised: 07/12/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION To compare glycemic control 1 year after treatment in patients with mildly obese (body mass index 27.5-34.9 kg/m2 ) type 2 diabetes mellitus who underwent bariatric surgery (BS) to those who received medical treatment (MT) in Japan. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study using real-world data was carried out in electronic medical records from a tertiary care hospital and in the Japanese Medical Data Center Inc. claim database from 2008 to 2019. Each patient was propensity score-matched between the BS and the MT group by age, sex, body mass index, glycated hemoglobin and type 2 diabetes mellitus duration, and compared from the index date to the 1 year post-index. RESULTS The study included 78 patients in the BS group and 238 patients in the MT group. The mean body mass index in the BS and the MT group was 32.1 and 32.0 kg/m2 , respectively. In the BS group, the patients underwent either laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy with or without duodenojejunal bypass. The diabetes remission rate (glycated hemoglobin <6.5% without diabetes medication) at 1 year was 59.0% in the BS group and 0.4% in the MT group (P < 0.0001). Optimal glycemic control of glycated hemoglobin <7.0% was achieved in 75.6% in the BS group and in 29.0% in the MT group (P < 0.0001). The median monthly drug costs for metabolic syndrome decreased from $US126.5 (at baseline) to $US0.0 (at 1 year) in the BS group, whereas it increased from $US52.4 to $US58.3 in the MT group. CONCLUSIONS BS for mildly obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is more clinically- and cost-effective than MT in Japan.

Abstract
Severe obesity is associated with major health issues and bariatric surgery is still the only treatment to offer significant and durable weight loss. Assessment of dietary intakes is an important component of the bariatric surgery process. Objective: To document the dietary assessment tools that have been used with patients targeted for bariatric surgery and patients who had bariatric surgery and explore the extent to which these tools have been validated. Methods: A literature search was conducted to identify studies that used a dietary assessment tool with patients targeted for bariatric surgery or who had bariatric surgery. Results: 108 studies were included. Among all studies included, 27 used a dietary assessment tool that had been validated either as part of the study per se (n = 11) or in a previous study (n = 16). Every tool validated per se in the cited studies was validated among a bariatric population, while none of the tools validated in previous studies were validated in this population. Conclusion: Few studies in bariatric populations used a dietary assessment tool that had been validated in this population. Additional studies are needed to develop valid and robust dietary assessment tools to improve the quality of nutritional studies among bariatric patients.

Abstract
On August 9-10, 2017, the American College of Surgeons hosted a symposium on metabolic surgery, with 12 follow-on papers published serially in the Bulletin of the College. The current synopsis outlines the varied contents of these papers, often in the original words of their authors, who are cited within their topic sections. Topics covered include the following: history and definition of metabolic surgery, bariatric surgery, international bariatric surgery, mechanisms of metabolic surgery, diabetes and the metabolic syndrome, frontiers of metabolic surgery, institutional collaborations, accreditations and quality initiatives, professional training, the role of the National Institutes of Health, and advocacy. Based on these insights, an enthusiastic affirmation for the future of metabolic surgery is warranted.
