Chen W, Feng J, Dong S, Guo J, Zhou F, Hu S, Hu R, Wang C, Ma Y, Dong Z. Efficacy and safety of duodenal-jejunal bypass liner for obesity and type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Obes Rev 2024; 25:e13812. [PMID: 39191438 DOI: 10.1111/obr.13812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/29/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. A comprehensive search of electronic databases was conducted up to September 15, 2022. Thirty studies involving 1751 patients were included. At 12 months post-implantation, the reduction in body mass index (BMI) was 4.8 kg/m2 (95% CI 4.1, 5.5), with an excess weight loss of 41.3% (95% CI 33.4%,49.2%) and a total weight loss of 13.1% (95% CI 10.1%, 16.0%). Significant decrease was observed in HbA1c and fasting glucose, with a standardized mean difference of - 0.72 (95% CI - 0.95, - 0.48) and - 0.62 (95% CI - 0.82, - 0.42), respectively. However, these improvements in weight loss and glycemic control were only partially sustained after explantation. In situ, DJBL significantly improves blood pressure and lipid levels. The pooled early removal rate was 19%, and the incidence of severe adverse events was 17%, including device migration (6%), gastrointestinal hemorrhage (4%), device obstruction (4%), and hepatic abscess (2%). DJBL offers significant improvement in weight loss and glycemic control, as well as cardiovascular parameters while in situ. Further studies are warranted to better understand the long-term efficacy and safety of DJBL. The benefits of DJBL need to be carefully weighed against the risks in clinical decision-making.

Abstract
With the alarmingly increasing prevalence of obesity in the Western world, it has become necessary to provide more acceptable treatment options for patients with obesity. Minimally invasive endoscopic techniques are continuously evolving. Currently, metabolic and bariatric endoscopies encompass several different techniques that can offer significant weight loss and improvement in comorbidities with a favorable safety profile. Restrictive bariatric procedures include the use of intragastric balloons and gastric remodeling techniques with different suturing devices. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of these techniques that are widely used in clinical practice. Small intestine-targeted metabolic endoscopy is an intriguing and rapidly evolving field of research, although it is not widespread in routine practice. These techniques include duodenal-jejunal bypass liners, duodenal mucosal resurfacing, and incisionless anastomoses. The aim of this review article is to provide a detailed update on the currently available bariatric endoscopy techniques in Western countries.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease associated with increased morbidity and mortality and reduced quality of life. Pharmacotherapy can be associated with life style changes in increasing and maintaining weight loss and ameliorating obesity-related complications and comorbidities. In patients affected by obesity and uncontrolled obesity-associated complications or high degrees of BMI (> 40 Kg/m2), metabolic bariatric surgery can be a valid therapeutic option. Many different types of surgical procedures have been developed in last decades, mainly performed via laparoscopic approaches. However, clinical indications for metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) and the choice of the most appropriate type of procedure have not been clarified so far.The Italian Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery for Obesity (Società Italiana di Chirurgia dell'Obesità e delle Malattie Metaboliche-SICOB) decided to design and develop the updated version of the Italian guidelines aimed at assisting healthcare professionals in the choice of the surgical option for the treatment of obesity and related conditions. Between June and October 2022, a panel of 24 experts and an evidence review team (ERT, 10 members), participated in the definition of clinical questions, outcomes, and recommendations and collected and analyzed all the available evidence on the basis of pre-specified search strategies. GRADE methodology and PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) conceptual framework have been adopted for the development of the present guidelines. Aim of the present guideline is to verify indications to surgery with respect to the presence of comorbid conditions, evaluate the different types of surgical approaches and endoscopic bariatric procedure and revise indication to revision surgery and postoperative procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide with decreased life expectancy. Duodenal mucosal resurfacing (DMR) has been associated with metabolic improvement in glycemic and hepatic parameters of type 2 diabetes, but the metabolic impact of DMR for NAFLD/NASH remains inconclusive. We conducted a meta-analysis to investigate metabolic effects of DMR in patients with NAFLD/NASH. METHODS Three major bibliographic databases were reviewed for enrollment of trials prior to January 28, 2022. We included adults with biopsy-proven NAFLD/NASH or liver magnetic resonance imaging proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) >5% at baseline and focused on the metabolic difference of MRI-PDFF at 12 weeks, and HbA1c or homeostatic model assessment index for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) at 24 weeks. RESULTS Two studies involved a total of 67 participants for analysis. When compared with pre-intervention status, mean difference of MRI-PDFF, HbA1c, and HOMA-IR after DMR were -2.22 (95% CI: -12.79~8.34), -0.32% (95% CI: -0.80~0.16), and 0.15 (95% CI: -5.11~5.41) without statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS For patients with NAFLD/NASH, DMR has the trend to improve liver fat at 12 weeks, and glycemic control in terms of HbA1c level at 24 weeks based on a very low quality of evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery (BS) is known to improve the components of metabolic syndrome (MS) in patients with obesity. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of BS on patients with MS at low BMI levels. The study aims to assess the effect of BS on MS in patients with low BMI by comparing BS with medical therapy (MT). METHODS A total of 271 patients with MS who underwent BS and MT at a single institution were reviewed in this retrospective cohort study. A 1:1 propensity score matching was performed for the BS and MT groups with BMI<35 kg/m2. We analyzed the 5 years effect of BS versus MT on the remission of MS, its components, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk, and medication used. RESULTS Patients in the MT group showed a decrease in the prevalence of MS to 62% at the 1st year and 10% at the 5th year. In the BS group, MS prevalence in patients with BMI<35 kg/m2 decreased to 30% and 9% at the 1st and 5th year, whereas in patients with BMI≥35 kg/m2 was 26% and 7%, respectively. The 10-year ASCVD risk and the lifetime ASCVD were significantly decreased 5 years after BS in patients with BMI<35 kg/m2. The number and daily drug dose of hypoglycemic drugs, antihypertensive medications, and lipid-lowering drugs were reduced from baseline in both BS and MT groups. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery significantly improves MS remission rates and long-term cardiovascular risk in Chinese patients with metabolic syndrome and a BMI <35 kg/m2.

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.

A Comprehensive Review on Bariatric Endoscopy: Where We Are Now and Where We Are Going. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:636.

Abstract
Background: Obesity is a chronic disease that impairs quality of life and leads to several comorbidities. When conservative therapies fail, bariatric surgical options such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) are the most effective therapies to induce persistent weight loss. Over the last two decades, bariatric endoscopy has become a valid alternative to surgery in specific settings. Primary bariatric endoscopic therapies: Restrictive gastric procedures, such as intragastric balloons (IGBs) and endoscopic gastroplasty, have been shown to be effective in inducing weight loss compared to diet modifications alone. Endoscopic gastroplasty is usually superior to IGBs in maintaining weight loss in the long-term period, whereas IGBs have an established role as a bridge-to-surgery approach in severely obese patients. IGBs in a minority of patients could be poorly tolerated and require early removal. More recently, novel endoscopic systems have been developed with the combined purpose of inducing weight loss and improving metabolic conditions. Duodenal mucosal resurfacing demonstrated efficacy in this field in its early trials: significant reduction from baseline of HbA1c values and a modest reduction of body weight were observed. Other endoscopic malabsorptive have been developed but need more evidence. For example, a pivotal trial on duodenojejunal bypasses was stopped due to the high rate of severe adverse events (hepatic abscesses). Optimization of these more recent malabsorptive endoscopic procedures could expand the plethora of bariatric patients that could be treated with the intention of improving their metabolic conditions. Revisional bariatric therapies: Weight regain may occur in up to one third of patients after bariatric surgery. Different endoscopic procedures are currently performed after both RYGB and SG in order to modulate post-surgical anatomy. The application of argon plasma coagulation associated with endoscopic full-thickness suturing systems (APC-TORe) and Re-EndoSleeve have shown to be the most effective endoscopic treatments after RYGB and SG, respectively. Both procedures are usually well tolerated and have a very low risk of stricture. However, APC-TORe may sometimes require more than one session to obtain adequate final results. The aim of this review is to explore all the currently available primary and revisional endoscopic bariatric therapies focusing on their efficacy and safety and their potential application in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) is a less-invasive treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS This is a systematic review and meta-analysis including randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing DJBL versus sham or pharmacotherapies aiming to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of DJBL. RESULTS Ten RCTs (681 patients) were included. The DJBL group showed superior excess weight loss (+ 11.4% [+ 7.75 to + 15.03%], p < 0.00001) and higher decrease in HbA1c compared to the control group (- 2.73 ± 0.5 vs. - 1.73 ± 0.4, p = 0.0001). Severe adverse events (SAEs) occurred in 19.7%. CONCLUSION The DJBL did not reach the ASGE/ASMBS thresholds for the treatment of obesity. However, it is important to state that many SAEs were not really severe. Therefore, we believe this therapy plays an important role in the management obesity and T2DM.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Obesity, with its increasing morbidity and prevalence, is now a worldwide public health problem. Obesity and its related comorbidities impose a heavy burden on societal health and the economy. The practice of bariatric surgery has evolved from its early surgical procedures, many of which are no longer routine operations. With clinical practice, research, and experience, bariatric surgery has gradually become an important last resort for the control of weight and obesity-related metabolic diseases in moderately and severely obese patients. However, there is still room for further improvements in bariatric surgical procedures, especially with regard to long-term issues and complications. Endoscopic weight loss technology has developed rapidly in recent years. The advantages of this technology include minimal invasiveness, an obvious weight loss effect, and few complications, thus filling the gap between medications and lifestyle adjustments and surgical treatment of obesity. Endoscopic weight loss technology may even replace surgical bariatric procedures. This review summarized the current status of bariatric metabolic surgery and newly developed bariatric endoscopic procedures.

Endoscopic Bariatric and Metabolic Therapies and Their Effects on Metabolic Syndrome and Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease - A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:880749. [PMID: 35615095 PMCID: PMC9124896 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.880749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundEndoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) are procedures that utilize instruments that require flexible endoscopy or placement of devices for inducing weight loss. We perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate four modalities – intragastric balloon (IGB), endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), duodeno-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL), and duodenal mucosa resurfacing (DMR), for their efficacy and safety on weight loss, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and metabolic syndrome.MethodsDatabases MEDLINE via PubMed, and EMBASE are searched and relevant publications up to January 26, 2022 are assessed. Studies are included if they involved human participants diagnosed with obesity and obesity-related comorbid conditions who are treated with any of the 4 EBMTs. IGB and DJBL were chosen as the interventions for the meta-analysis with weight loss (percentage total body weight loss or body mass index) and glycemic control (fasting plasma glucose or HbA1c) as the two main outcomes analyzed.ResultsSix hundred and forty-eight records are reviewed, of which 15 studies are found to be duplicates. Of the 633 records screened, 442 studies are excluded. One hundred and ninety-one articles are assessed for eligibility, for which 171 are excluded. A total of 21 publications are included. Twelve studies are on IGB, two studies on ESG, five studies on DJBL, and two studies on DMR. In these studies with appropriate control, IGB, ESG, and DJBL showed promising benefits on weight loss reduction compared to standard medical therapy (SMT), while DMR appeared to have the least weight reduction benefit. However, the impact on glycemic control featured more prominently in DMR as compared to the rest of the modalities. Different EBMTs have different adverse effect profiles, although device-related adverse events are featured more prominently in DJBL. In the IGB group, there was a significant reduction in 6-month %TBWL [weighted mean difference (WMD) 5.45 (3.88, 7.05)] and FPG WMD −4.89 mg/dL (−7.74, −2.04) compared to the SMT group. There was no significant reduction in BMI between the DJBL and SMT group WMD −2.73 (−5.52, 0.07) kg/m2.ConclusionEBMTs have demonstrated a significant impact on weight loss and metabolic comorbidities, and reasonable safety profiles in the studies reviewed. Some data is available to demonstrate reduction of hepatic steatosis, but there is no high-quality data supporting benefits on hepatic lobular inflammation or fibrosis.

Abstract
<abstract>
<p>Endoscopic bariatric procedures including Duedenal Jejunal Bypass Liner (DJBL) have become widespread in obesity treatment in recent years. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the role of DJBL in obesity treatment. A comprehensive search of several databases, including Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Web of Science was conducted to December 2020. Twenty-four clinical studies were assessed. According to the results, it is clear that DJBL provides effective weight reduction at 6–12 months and significant improvements in parameters associated with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. This technique also has potential to reduce comedications in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes. Although these positive effects of DJBL are clear, its effect on liver, pancreatic functions, and inflammation markers are not clear yet. In addition, the overall and serious complication (gastrointestinal bleeds, pancreatitis, hepatic abscess, obstruction of the sleeve, biliary colic without cholecystitis and cholangitis) rate causing from the DJBL is very high. DJBL has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration due to the frequency and severity of complications it causes. While it is certain that DJBL has significant effects on obesity and obesity related comorbidities, the safety aspect needs to be improved.</p>
