Abstract
The small bowel has a crucial role in metabolic homeostasis. Small bowel endoscopic bariatric metabolic treatments (EBMTs) include several devices aimed at providing minimally invasive approaches for the management of metabolic disorders. The aim of this review is to provide an updated and exhaustive overview of the EBMTs targeting the small bowel developed to date, including the duodenal mucosa resurfacing, the duodenal-jejunal bypass liners, gastro-jejunal bypass sleeve, and the incisioneless magnetic anastomosis system, as well as to mention the future perspectives in the field.

[PMID: 38579730 DOI: 10.1016/j.medj.2024.03.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing at an alarming rate, and only 50% of patients with T2DM achieve or maintain adequate glycemic control with pharmacological therapies. Metabolic surgery demonstrated superior efficacy compared to medical therapy but is unfeasible for most patients with T2DM. Duodenal mucosal resurfacing (DMR) by hydrothermal mucosal ablation, recellularization via electroporation therapy (ReCET), and photodynamic therapy are novel endoscopic procedures that use thermal, electrical, and photochemical energy, respectively, to ablate and reset dysfunctional duodenal mucosa. We assessed the data on the effects of these techniques on glycemic control and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS We systematically searched independently and in duplicate English and non-English language publications through January 31st, 2024. Outcomes assessed were an improvement in different metabolic health parameters and the safety of duodenal mucosal ablation (DMA) procedures. Outcomes were presented descriptively. FINDINGS We selected 12 reports reporting results from 3 randomized and 6 uncontrolled trials (seven evaluating DMR, two evaluating ReCET, all with a low risk of bias) for a total of 317 patients enrolled. DMA reduced HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and liver fat. When combined with newer antidiabetic drugs, it allowed insulin discontinuation in up to 86% patients. No major safety signal emerged. CONCLUSIONS All DMA techniques improve glucose homeostasis; DMR and ReCET appear to be safe in patients with T2DM. If confirmed by future randomized trials and by trials with histological endpoints in NAFLD, then DMA appears to be a promising alternative or complement option to medications for T2DM and NAFLD treatment. FUNDING This study received no funding.

Abstract
This joint ASGE-ESGE guideline provides an evidence-based summary and recommendations regarding the role of endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) in the management of obesity. The document was developed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework. It evaluates the efficacy and safety of EBMT devices and procedures that currently have CE mark or FDA-clearance/approval, or that had been approved within five years of document development. The guideline suggests the use of EBMTs plus lifestyle modification in patients with a BMI of ≥ 30 kg/m2, or with a BMI of 27.0-29.9 kg/m2 with at least 1 obesity-related comorbidity. Furthermore, it suggests the utilization of intragastric balloons and devices for endoscopic gastric remodeling (EGR) in conjunction with lifestyle modification for this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary obesity surgery endoluminal 2.0 (POSE 2.0) procedure involves full-thickness gastric body plications to narrow the stomach using durable suture anchor pairs. We evaluated POSE 2.0 as a treatment strategy for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with obesity. METHODS Adults with obesity and NAFLD were prospectively allocated based on their preference to undergo POSE 2.0 with lifestyle modification or lifestyle modification alone (control). Primary end points were improvement in controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) and resolution of hepatic steatosis at 12 months. Secondary end points included %total body weight loss (%TBWL), change in serum measures of hepatic steatosis and insulin resistance, and procedure safety. RESULTS 42 adult patients were included (20 in the POSE 2.0 arm and 22 in the control arm). At 12 months, POSE 2.0 significantly improved CAP, whereas lifestyle modification alone did not (P < 0.001 for POSE 2.0; P = 0.24 for control). Similarly, both resolution of steatosis and %TBWL were significantly higher with POSE 2.0 than with control at 12 months. Compared with controls, POSE 2.0 significantly improved liver enzymes, hepatic steatosis index, and aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio at 12 months. There were no serious adverse events. CONCLUSION : POSE 2.0 was effective for NAFLD in patients with obesity, with good durability and safety profile.

Abstract
The global obesity epidemic shows no signs of slowing down. Endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) are being increasingly adopted as treatment options for obesity and obesity-related comorbidities, due to their minimally invasive nature and ease of delivery. According to the site of action along the gastrointestinal tract, EBMTs can be divided into two categories: gastric EBMTs, and small intestine-targeted EBMTs. Unlike gastric EBMTs, which work through a volume-restricting mechanism leading to early satiety and reduced caloric intake, small intestine-targeted EBMTs can be metabolically beneficial through foregut and/or hindgut pathways independent of weight loss, and therefore have great potential for the treatment of obesity-related metabolic comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes. Although none of the small intestine-targeted EBMTs have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to date, their clinical efficacy and safety have been extensively explored in investigational trials. This review aims to summarize and provide a comprehensive understanding of small intestine-targeted EBMTs in clinical and preclinical settings, and to further discuss their potential mechanisms of action.

Abstract
Purpose of review Bariatric and metabolic endoscopic therapies provide an option for patients seeking clinically significant weight loss with fewer adverse events than conventional bariatric surgery. Our aims are to provide an overview of the current state of primary endoscopic treatment options for weight loss and to emphasize the importance of including these therapies when presenting weight loss options to qualified patients. Recent findings Bariatric endoscopy procedures are associated with a lower adverse event rate when compared to bariatric surgery and result in more weight loss than most existing pharmacotherapies approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Summary Sufficient evidence exists to implement bariatric endoscopic therapies-namely, the intragastric balloon and endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty-as safe and effective treatment options for weight loss when used in combination with lifestyle changes. However, bariatric endoscopy remains an underutilized option by weight management providers. Future studies are needed to identify patient and provider-level barriers to adopting endoscopic bariatric therapies as an option for the treatment of obesity.

Abstract
Obesity is strongly associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease as well as advanced forms of the disease such as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. While lifestyle and diet modifications have been the cornerstone of treatment for NASH thus far, they are only effective for less than half of the patients. New endoscopic bariatric therapies (EBTs) have already proved to be safe and effective for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and may provide an intermediate, less invasive, cost-effective option for patients with NASH. In this review, we aim to describe the data and evidence as well as outline future areas of development for endobariatric therapies for the treatment of NASH. In conclusion, EBTs present an effective and safe therapeutic modality for use in the growing pandemic of obesity-related liver disease and should be investigated further with large-scale trials in this patient population.
