Abstract
PURPOSE Bariatric surgery is very efficacious in treating severe obesity. However, its effect on menstruation and ovulation is currently unknown. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of gastric sleeve resection (GSR) on menstrual pattern in women with stages III-IV obesity and ovulatory dysfunction compared with conventional management. METHODS This was a prospective, multicentre, non-randomized trial, in premenopausal women, who fulfilled the criteria for gastric sleeve resection (GSR). Both women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) were evaluated at 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 months post-surgery. RESULTS Menstrual cycle irregularities were identified in 122 severely obese women (60 with PCOS; 62 without PCOS). The % total weight loss was greater with GSR than with conventional management (33.4% vs. 3.6% in PCOS; 24.8% vs. 3.6% in non-PCOS, respectively). Intermenstrual interval was shortened towards normal length (≤ 35 days) both in PCOS and non-PCOS GSR groups, by the 6th and 12th post-surgical month, respectively. Furthermore, ovulation at 6 months was achieved in 63.6% of PCOS and 45% of non-PCOS subjects post-GSR, which was higher than in controls (11.1% and 13.6%, respectively; p < 0.05). This percentage rose to 75.7% and 81.8% at 12 and 15 months in PCOS, respectively, but not in the non-PCOS group (55% and 52.5%, respectively; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Weight reduction after GSR improved menstrual irregularity towards normality in women with severe obesity. Ovulation dysfunction was also resumed in more than half of these patients at 6-15 months. These effects were more evident in women with PCOS.

Curr Pharm Des 2020; 25:2051-2059.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity frequently co-exists with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), leading to the socalled "diabesity epidemic". The metabolic syndrome (MetS), a cluster of central obesity, hypertension, dysglycemia, insulin resistance and/or atherogenic dyslipidemia, as well as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a hepatic manifestation of MetS, has been associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD), T2DM and chronic kidney disease (CKD) incidence. However, the association between obesity, MetS (including NAFLD) and diabetic microvascular complications is less evident. METHODS The present narrative review discusses the associations of obesity, MetS and NAFLD with diabetic kidney disease (DKD), diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) as well as cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN). The available data on the effects of lifestyle measures and bariatric surgery on these diabetic complications are also briefly discussed. RESULTS Overall, both obesity and MetS have been related to DKD, DR and DPN, although conflicting results exist. Links between NAFLD and diabetic microvascular complications have also been reported but data are still limited. Lifestyle intervention and bariatric surgery may prevent the development and/or progression of these microvascular complications but more evidence is needed. CONCLUSION Clinicians should be aware of the frequent co-existence of MetS and/or NAFLD in T2DM patients to prevent or treat these metabolic disorders, thus potentially minimizing the risk for both CVD and diabetic microvascular complications.

Associations of SNPs of the ADIPOQ Gene with Serum Adiponectin Levels, Unstable Angina, and Coronary Artery Disease. Biomolecules 2019; 9:biom9100537. [PMID: 31561637 PMCID: PMC6843172 DOI: 10.3390/biom9100537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2019] [Revised: 09/22/2019] [Accepted: 09/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Adiponectin is encoded by the ADIPOQ gene and participates in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. The goal of the study was to assess associations of rs17300539, rs266729, rs182052, rs2241766, and rs17366743 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the ADIPOQ gene with concentrations of serum adiponectin and with coronary atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes mellitus in 447 patients (316 men and 131 women) subjected to coronary angiography. SNPs of the ADIPOQ gene of the study participants were genotyped using real-time PCR. Multivariate linear regression adjusted for covariates revealed significant association between rs182052 SNP and serum adiponectin concentration (β= -0.11; 95% confidence interval (95%CI): -0.19, -0.03; p = 0.016). Regression analysis revealed an increase in prevalence of unstable angina (OR (odds ratio) = 2.55; 95%CI 1.4-4.82; p = 0.018) and coronary artery disease (OR = 1.55; 95%CI 1.15-2.09; p = 0.021) per copy of the rs182052 A allele. Prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus was higher in subjects with the rs182052 A allele (OR = 2.29; 95%CI 1.29-4.21; p = 0.024). Regression analysis of rs266729 showed that prevalence of unstable angina was increased (OR = 3.59; 95%CI 1.17-10.01; p = 0.045) in the subjects with the GG genotype and prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) was significantly increased (OR = 1.48; 95%CI 1.09-2.03; p = 0.045) per copy of the G allele. Haplotype analysis revealed that the subjects with the GCATT haplotype have lower adiponectin levels (β= -0.15; p = 0.042) and higher prevalence of unstable angina (OR = 3.597; p = 0.007) compared with reference haplotype carriers. Thus, the results indicate that minor A allele of rs182052 of the ADIPOQ gene is significantly associated with a decrease in serum adiponectin levels, and two SNPs (rs182052 and rs266729) of the ADIPOQ gene are significantly associated with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

Abstract
The Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) has been reported to be protective against the occurrence of several diseases. Increasing evidence suggests that the MedDiet could counter diseases associated with chronic inflammation, including metabolic syndrome, atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, obesity, pulmonary diseases, and cognition disorders. Adoption of a MedDiet was associated with beneficial effects on the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines, antioxidant cellular and circulating biomarkers as well as with regulation of gene polymorphisms involved in the atherosclerotic process. The MedDiet has been considered for the prevention of cardiovascular and other chronic degenerative diseases focusing on the impact of a holistic dietary approach rather than on single nutrients. Epidemiological dietary scores measuring adherence to a MedDiet have been developed. This narrative review considers the results of up-to-date clinical studies (with a focus on the last 5 years) that evaluated the effectiveness of the MedDiet in reducing the prevalence of chronic and degenerative diseases.
