[PMID: 39003596 DOI: 10.1002/ncp.11190] [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: 05/03/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Patients with malabsorptive conditions can develop micronutrient deficiencies, even if they receive vitamins, minerals, or trace elements through their enteral or parenteral nutrition. Additionally, clinicians have faced challenges with micronutrient supplementation during parenteral product shortages and when transitioning patients from parenteral to enteral/oral nutrition. Evaluating micronutrient deficiencies through laboratory markers has various limitations, including that many are acute phase reactants, may not reflect storage status, or may not be readily available in clinical practice. Furthermore, clinicians can become overwhelmed with the variety of vitamin and mineral products available, the differences in dosages and ingredients in these products, and lastly, the inherent challenges associated with an impaired gastrointestinal tract. The current review will discuss some challenges clinicians may encounter in clinical practice during the evaluation, assessment, and prescription of micronutrient supplementation in patients with malabsorptive conditions.

Postgrad Med 2024; 136:456-467. [PMID: 38782760 DOI: 10.1080/00325481.2024.2359895] [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: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often have the condition of malnutrition, which can be presented as sarcopenia, micronutrient deficiencies, etc. Trace elements (magnesium, calcium, iron, copper, zinc, plumbum and manganese) belonging to micronutrients, are greatly vital for the assessment of nutritional status in humans. Trace element deficiencies are also the main manifestation of malnutrition. Calcium (Ca) has been proved to play an important part in maintaining body homeostasis and regulating cellular function. However, there are still a lack of studies on the association between malnutrition and Ca deficiency in IBD. This research aimed to investigate the role of Ca for malnutrition in IBD patients. METHODS We prospectively collected blood samples from 149 patients and utilized inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to examine their venous serum trace element concentrations. Logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the association between Ca and malnutrition. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to calculate the cutoffs for determination of Ca deficiency. RESULTS Except Ca, the concentrations of the other six trace elements presented no statistical significance between non-malnutrition and malnutrition group. In comparison with the non-malnutrition group, the serum concentration of Ca decreased in the malnutrition group (89.36 vs 87.03 mg/L, p = 0.023). With regard to ROC curve, Ca < 87.21 mg/L showed the best discriminative capability with an area of 0.624 (95% CI: 0.520, 0.727, p = 0.023). Multivariate analyses demonstrated that Ca < 87.21 mg/L (OR = 3.393, 95% CI: 1.524, 7.554, p = 0.003) and age (OR = 0.958, 95% CI: 0.926, 0.990, p = 0.011) were associated with malnutrition risk. Serum Ca levels were significantly lower in the malnutrition group than those in the non-malnutrition group among UC patients, those with severe disease state or the female group. CONCLUSIONS In patients with IBD, Ca deficiency is an independent factor for high malnutrition risk.

Abstract
Gastrectomy and esophagectomy are the most performed surgeries in the treatment of both esophageal and gastric cancers. The type of esophagectomy depends on the type of malignancy, site of the tumor, criteria of resection, and field of resection. The three standard approaches to esophagectomy are the transhiatal approach, the left thoracoabdominal approach, and a three-stage procedure. The transhiatal approach involves abdominal and cervical incisions, while the left thoracoabdominal approach is a one-stage procedure that utilizes a single incision exposing the dissection field. The Ivor Lewis and McKeown esophagectomies are two-stage and three-stage surgeries that include laparotomy with right thoracotomy. Malabsorption often emerges as a significant postoperative complication following esophagectomy and gastrectomy surgeries. Malnutrition linked with these cancers has detrimental effects, including heightened rates of postoperative complications, elevated infection risks, delayed wound healing, reduced tolerance to treatment, diminished quality of life, and heightened mortality rates. Our narrative review summarizes and sheds light on solutions to treat malabsorption disorders and malnutrition after gastric bypass surgery. These solutions include methods such as adjustments, supplements, and treatment. Although more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness, these methods indicate potential for lowering the impact on patients' diets. By considering the beneficial implications of these effects and considering solutions, we aim to improve the management of these adverse effects, ultimately improving the overall health and postoperative outcomes of patients.

Abstract
Patients undergoing metabolic surgery have factors ranging from anatomo-surgical, endocrine metabolic, eating patterns and physical activity, mental health and psychological factors. Some of the latter can explain the possible pathophysiological neuroendocrine, metabolic, and adaptive mechanisms that cause the high prevalence of weight regain in postbariatric patients. Even metabolic surgery has proven to be effective in reducing excess weight in patients with obesity; some of them regain weight after this intervention. In this vein, several studies have been conducted to search factors and mechanisms involved in weight regain, to stablish strategies to manage this complication by combining metabolic surgery with either lifestyle changes, behavioral therapies, pharmacotherapy, endoscopic interventions, or finally, surgical revision. The aim of this revision is to describe certain aspects and mechanisms behind weight regain after metabolic surgery, along with preventive and therapeutic strategies for this complication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis study aimed to estimate changes in blood nutrient concentrations and nutrient deficiencies in adolescents following bariatric surgery. METHODS We searched PubMed, Scopus, and the Web of Science to find studies published between January 2000 and August 2023. Observational studies reporting the mean blood concentration of nutrients before and after bariatric surgery or the proportion of nutrient deficiencies after the surgery in healthy adolescents were selected. RESULTS Fifteen studies were included. Gastric bypass and sleeve gastrostomy were the most common types of surgery. Vitamin D, iron, or ferritin, vitamin B12, calcium, and folic acid were the most studied nutrients, respectively. Other nutrients examined in the studies included zinc, phosphorus, and albumin. The serum ferritin increased by 21 mcg/L (95% CI = 10.0, 32.0 mcg/L) after the surgery, but there were no significant alterations in other nutrients. The postoperative prevalence of low albumin, ferritin, vitamin D, and vitamin B12 levels was 10%, 49%, 41%, and 20%, respectively. Also, 23% had an iron deficiency, and 10% had a calcium deficiency after bariatric surgery. CONCLUSIONS The serum ferritin level increased following bariatric surgery in adolescents. Vitamin D and ferritin deficiencies were estimated to be present in more than one-third of adolescents after the surgery.

Impact on oxidative stress of oral, high-dose, iron supplementation for management of iron deficiency after bariatric surgery, a preliminary study. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2023; 80:127310. [PMID: 37801789 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2023.127310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES High-dose oral iron supplementation for patients who develop iron deficiency after bariatric surgery may induce oxidative stress in the gastrointestine. The study's objective was to test this hypothesis by determining the impact of high-dose oral iron on systemic oxidative stress. METHODS We used archived plasma samples from a randomized controlled clinical trial (NCT02404012) comparing FeSO4 (195 mg/day, NatureMade®, West Hills, CA) with a heme iron polypeptide (HIP, 60.4 mg/day, Proferrin®, Colorado Biolabs, Lafayette, CO) for 8 weeks. Systemic oxidative stress was measured using malondialdehyde and total antioxidant capacity (MDA, Abcam, ab238537 and TAC, Abcam, ab65329 Cambridge, UK) assays. Data was log-transformed and presented as means and standard deviations; a mixed model was used to determine the effects of time (0, 2, 4, and 8 weeks) and treatment (FeSO4 versus HIP) on oxidative stress. RESULTS The FeSO4 (N = 8) and HIP (N = 5) participants were balanced in body mass index (35.0 ± 5.5 kg/m2), race (93 % White), time post-surgery (7.3 ± 3.3 years), as well as serum concentrations of iron (P > 0.05). The FeSO4 group tended to be older (44.3 ± 4.5 years) and they had lower concentrations of serum ferritin (6.5 ± 2.7 µg/mL) than the HIP (38.2 ± 9.3 years, and 12.9 ± 16.8 µg/mL) group (P = 0.080, and P = 0.017 respectively). We observed a larger increase in serum iron in the FeSO4 group during the 8 weeks of Fe supplementation, compared to that in the HIP group (p = 0.004). We observed a decreasing trend in MDA over the 8 weeks (p = 0.080) in the FeSO4 treatment group. There were no significant differences in TAC between and within FeSO4 and HIP groups over the 8 week supplementation period. CONCLUSIONS This preliminary study suggests that high-dose oral iron supplementation for iron deficiency does not adversely impact systemic oxidative stress in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Globally, over 2 billion people suffer from malnutrition due to inadequate intake of micronutrients. Genomic-assisted breeding is identified as a valuable method to facilitate developing new improved plant varieties targeting grain yield and micronutrient-related traits. In this study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and single- and multi-trait-based genomic prediction (GP) analysis was conducted using a set of 252 elite wheat genotypes from the International Center for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA). The objective was to identify linked SNP markers, putative candidate genes and to evaluate the genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) of grain yield and micronutrient-related traits.. For this purpose, a field trial was conducted at a drought-prone station, Merchouch, Morocco for 2 consecutive years (2018 and 2019) followed by GWAS and genomic prediction analysis with 10,173 quality SNP markers. The studied genotypes exhibited a significant genotypic variation in grain yield and micronutrient-related traits. The GWAS analysis identified highly significantly associated markers and linked putative genes on chromosomes 1B and 2B for zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) contents, respectively. The genomic predictive ability of selenium (Se) and Fe traits with the multi-trait-based GP GBLUP model was 0.161 and 0.259 improving by 6.62 and 4.44%, respectively, compared to the corresponding single-trait-based models. The identified significantly linked SNP markers, associated putative genes, and developed GP models could potentially facilitate breeding programs targeting to improve the overall genetic gain of wheat breeding for grain yield and biofortification of micronutrients via marker-assisted (MAS) and genomic selection (GS) methods.

Abstract
We report a case of a 72-year-old woman who developed recurrent abdominal laparotomy wound dehiscence and infection following a hepatico-jejunostomy. Her surgical history included a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) that was carried out 11 years ago. Upon further assessment in the current admission, she was found to be deficient in both selenium and zinc. Daily multivitamin and mineral tablets and a nutritional supplement drink were prescribed to address her deficiencies. After 2 months of supplementation, the laparotomy wound had made significant healing progress and no further surgical input was required. This case illustrates the importance of assessing micronutrient levels in patients with a history of bariatric surgery who present with poor wound healing and infection. Bariatric patients should also be educated about the risks of nutritional deficiencies and encouraged to adhere to prescribed dietary and lifestyle changes. Importantly, family medicine and primary care physicians need to consider an adequate level of supplementation of micronutrients in all patients with RYGB surgery.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery (BS) is associated with vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which might be augmented by low adherence to dietary guidelines and inappropriate dietary behaviours. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of BS on eating behaviour, prevalence of nutrient deficiency, level of commitment to diet, and lifestyle recommendations one-year post-BS. A cross-sectional study was conducted among adult patients who underwent BS in 2019 and had follow-up for a year. Age, gender, and clinical data were collected from the hospital system and other information was obtained from questionnaires during phone interviews. A total of 160 patients participated in the study. At 12 months, a significant increase from the baseline values in plasma levels of vitamin B12, folate, vitamin D, iron, corrected calcium, albumin, CRP, and MCV, as well as a significant decrease in BMI was observed. Adherence to dietary and lifestyle recommendations was moderate to high. Emotional, and restrained eating behaviours were moderate with 64.4%, and 77.5%, respectively. External eating was low at 58.1%. The study concluded that pre-and post-bariatric surgery nutrients should be closely monitored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A long-lasting and efficient method of managing obesity and therapeutic associated comorbidities is bariatric surgery. However, a debated comparison between one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) and sleeve gastrectomy is still essential (SG). The goal of this study is to evaluate outcomes using RCT and NRCT from 2015 to 2022. METHODS By contrasting the OAGB and SG for bariatric surgery from January 2015 to September 2022, an RCT and NRCT were prospectively gathered using the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and MEDLINE databases of published research. This meta-statistical analysis was carried out in RevMan 5.4, and the best effect model was selected based on heterogeneity. RESULTS Twelve retrospective studies describing 6344 patients (3725 OAGB and 2619 SG) satisfied the inclusion criteria. A statistically significant result was in %EWL first year (MD = 8.03, 95% CI: 4.54-11.52, P < 0.05), second year (MD = 8.94, 95% CI: 2.95-14.94, P < 0.05), third year (MD = 8.93, 95% CI: 5.75-12.10, P < 0.05), fourth year (MD = 15.09, 95% CI:0.87-29.31, P < 0.05), and fifth year (MD = 14.25, 95% CI: 5.34, P < 0.05). OAGB was associated with a lower rate of remission in dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hemorrhage. However, OAGB increased the incidence of GERD and leakage. CONCLUSIONS In terms of weight loss and comorbidity remission, OAGB is more effective than SG, although postoperative consequences are rather comparable between the two methods.

Abstract
Early complications after a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) include bleeding, leaks, strictures and bowel obstructions. Patients post-LSG experience rapid but intended weight loss and may be on a restricted diet before and following surgery. Thus, many of these patients are in a malnourished state, placing them at a risk of developing potentially life-threatening refeeding syndrome (RFS). We describe the case of an 18-year-old female who developed RFS 2 weeks after LSG. We examine potential causes, review literature and discuss RFS pathophysiology as well as the guidelines that could help prevent RFS in bariatric surgery. Currently, not much is known about the risk of RFS in bariatric surgery and to our knowledge, this is the first report of RFS occurring in the early postoperative phase after LSG. A globally accepted definition of RFS should be established for guidelines to encompass wider patient groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A common bariatric procedure known as gastric sleeve surgery can cause significant weight loss and co-morbid condition alleviation. However, patients could experience persistent problems such as gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal/neural, and psychiatric disorders after surgery. This study aims to identify the most prevalent chronic symptoms following sleeve gastrectomy among a sample of Saudi patients and the impact these symptoms have on patients' lives. METHODOLOGY Patients who underwent gastric sleeve surgery at the Ensan Clinic, a facility specializing in gastroenterology, were the subjects of this retrospective cohort analysis. The study population consisted of patients who underwent gastric sleeve surgery, showed up for follow-up after the procedure, and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data collection sheet is divided into seven sections. Sociodemographic information was required in the first section, gastric sleeve surgery information in the second, vital signs in the third, lab results in the fourth, past medical history in the fifth, current treatments in the sixth, and postoperative complications and chronic symptoms in the seventh and final sections. RESULTS In 117 patients, the study evaluated the effects of gastric sleeve surgery. Participants had an average age of 40.21 years, and 61.5% were female. Regarding persistent symptoms after surgery, a sizable percentage of patients mentioned digestive issues such as GERD (44.4%), dyspepsia (60.7%), vomiting (23.1%), nausea (39.3%), and abdominal distention (45.3%). A total of 34.2% of patients reported experiencing anxiety, compared to 11.1% who said they had depression or 2.6% who said they had social issues. A few patients reported experiencing neurological or musculoskeletal issues, including exhaustion (7.7%), faintness (5.1%), back or joint discomfort (7.7%), and shortness of breath (8.5%). CONCLUSION After undergoing gastric sleeve surgery, a sizable proportion of patients complained of various chronic symptoms and nutritional inadequacies, primarily gastrointestinal problems and musculoskeletal/neurological issues. The study's findings show a connection between these symptoms and surgery.

Abstract
Treatment of obesity should be multidirectional and include, in addition to bariatric surgery, changing the key factors of lifestyle and eating habits. The study aimed to assess the impact of bariatric surgery and dietary care on anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, changes in lifestyle, and eating habits of patients within 9 months after the procedure, with the selection of environmental factors determining BMI variation. The study included 30 SG patients before surgery (month zero) and at 1, 3, 6, and 9 months after SG. Patients completed a questionnaire regarding age, sex, place of residence, education, professional activity, number of family members, financial situation, family history of obesity, previous forms of therapy, self-assessment of nutritional knowledge, receiving and following nutritional recommendations, eating habits, frequency of body weight control, leisure time. Body weight, height, waist and hip circumference, and systolic and diastolic pressure were measured, and BMI and WHR (Waist to Hip Ratio) were calculated. Within 9 months after the procedure, the patients' body weight and BMI decreased on average by 26%. Post bariatric surgery, patients changed their eating habits. The influence of bariatric SG surgery and time after surgery was decisive for the normalization of BMI and explained the 33% variation in BMI up to 9 months after the procedure. Other factors important for the normalization of BMI after surgery were: male gender, older age of patients, family obesity (non-modifiable factors), as well as previous forms of therapy related to weight loss before surgery, shortening the intervals between meals and stopping eating at night (modifiable factors). The tested model explained 68% of the BMI variation after SG surgery for all assessed factors. Changes in lifestyle and eating habits in bariatric patients are crucial to maintaining the effect of bariatric surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is a popular surgery for morbid obesity because of minimal complications, while somewhere uncommon micronutrient deficiencies occur that make problems. One of these rare complications is dry beriberi (BB). CASE PRESENTATION A 20-year-old girl with obesity that a few months after SG had non-specific symptoms like nausea, vomiting, debilitating weakness, burning, and tingling in her feet, which led to more tests and imaging and confused the physicians. During the next two months, she had a 40 kg weight loss. The critical test that helped diagnosis was Electromyography and Nerve Conduction Velocity (EMG/NCV), which showed subacute axonal sensory-motor polyneuropathy and decreased level of vitamin B1, proved the patient's diagnosis was dray BB. CLINICAL DISCUSSION SG may contribute to vitamin and trace elements deficiency development. One of the micronutrients that deficiencies can disturb the patient is vitamin B1 deficiency. Vitamin B1 deficiencies could be demonstrated with peripheral polyneuropathy, beriberi, or Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. Based on decreased vitamin B1 and EMG/NCV results, the diagnosis had been dry beriberi corrected with supplement therapy. CONCLUSION Thiamine deficiency should be suspected in all patients with vomiting, neurological symptoms, and rapid weight loss post-bariatric surgery (BS), even after restrictive surgery. Especially when a patient reports substantial weight loss and vomiting in short order. Hopefully, this case report will make any patient hospitalized with similar conditions evaluated for beriberi and again multivitamin supplementation therapy after SG is emphasized.

Abstract
Obesity is increasingly prevalent in the post-industrial era, with increased mortality rates. The gut microbiota has a central role in immunological, nutritional and metabolism mediated functions, and due to its multiplexity, it is considered an independent organ. Modern high-throughput sequencing techniques have allowed phylogenetic exploration and quantitative analyses of gut microbiome and improved our current understanding of the gut microbiota in health and disease. Its role in obesity and its changes following bariatric surgery have been highlighted in several studies. According to current literature, obesity is linked to a particular microbiota profile that grants the host an augmented potential for calorie release, while limited diversity of gut microbiome has also been observed. Moreover, bariatric surgery procedures represent effective interventions for sustained weight loss and restore a healthier microbiota, contributing to the observed fat mass reduction and lean mass increase. However, newer evidence has shown that gut microbiota is only partially recovered following bariatric surgery. Moreover, several targets including FGF15/19 (a gut-derived peptide), could be responsible for the favorable metabolic changes of bariatric surgery. More randomized controlled trials and larger prospective studies that include well-defined cohorts are required to better identify associations between gut microbiota, obesity, and bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Objetivo: analisar o estado clínico e nutricional de pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica. Métodos: trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico observacional, com delineamento transversal, norteado pela ferramenta STROBE. Foi realizado entre 2015 e 2016, com dados de pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica em Y de Roux nos anos de 2012 a 2014, em um hospital privado de Minas Gerais. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de questionário semi-estruturado, elaborado pelos pesquisadores. Para verificar a existência da associação entre as variáveis do estado nutricional e clínico com o tempo pós-cirúrgico, utilizou-se o teste Qui-quadrado de Pearson ou Exato de Fisher para as variáveis categóricas e, para as contínuas, os testes Kruskal-Wallis ou Mann-Whitney. Resultados: verificou-se significância estatística para as variáveis: “enfraquecimento de unhas” (p=0,002), “êmese” (p=0,018), “frequência de consumo alcoólico” (p=0,018) e “número de refeições diárias” (p=0,028) no grupo feminino. Conclusão: este estudo evidenciou alterações no componente clínico e nutricional das pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica. Observou-se associações estatisticamente significativas no grupo feminino, incluindo mudanças no perfil clínico de maior episódio de êmese e maior frequência no consumo de álcool. Em relação ao perfil nutricional, pacientes do sexo feminino apresentaram maiores proporções no número de refeições e maior enfraquecimento nas unhas após o procedimento cirúrgico. Reforça-se a importância do acompanhamento e orientação nutricional e psicológica contínuas, pré e pós cirúrgicas, minimizando os impactos negativos deste resultado na saúde dos indivíduos.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative optimization of iron status is a priority in candidates for bariatric surgery. Inflammation is strongly associated with obesity, and as a consequence, functional iron deficiency (ID) is potentially an underreported issue in surgical candidates. OBJECTIVES In light of updated practice guidelines, to retrospectively review preoperative iron status in an Irish cohort of bariatric surgery candidates, taking account of the relative incidence rate of functional ID. SETTING A tertiary care obesity service with bariatric surgery referral in Ireland. METHODS Baseline nutritional biochemistry records were reviewed between February 2017 and February 2020 in a hospital, Dublin, Ireland. Absolute ID was defined as serum ferritin <30 μg/L; functional ID was defined as ferritin, 30 to 100 μg/L, in the presence of C-reactive protein >5 mg/L. Anemia was indexed with reference to hemoglobin and qualified by vitamin B12 and folate status to rule out anemia unrelated to primary ID. RESULTS The analysis included 120 patients, 68% female, 49.6 ± 9.3 years, and body mass index, 52.0 ± 9.6 kg/m2. The prevalence of absolute and functional ID was 11.7% and 30.8%, respectively (P = .0003). Anemia was associated with absolute ID and functional ID in 14.3% and 10.8% of patients (P = .29). Folate and vitamin B12 deficiency occurred in <5% of patients. CONCLUSION In patients seeking bariatric surgery for severe obesity, the prevalence of baseline functional ID is substantial and can be associated with anemia. These findings raise queries with regard to how best to optimize preoperative iron status in the context of ongoing inflammation.

Abstract
Introduction Uncertain nutritional outcomes following common metabolic surgical techniques are concerning given the long-term potential for postoperative metabolic bone disease. This study aims to investigate the variations in serum calcium, vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels following Roux-en-Y Gastric bypass (RYBP) and Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG). Methods A retrospective analysis of 370 patients who underwent metabolic surgery at a single-centre group practice in Melbourne, Australia, over 2 years. Results Patients underwent SG (n = 281) or RYGP (n = 89), with 75% and 87% of the cohort being female, respectively. Postoperative mean serum calcium levels and median serum vitamin D levels improved significantly by 24 months within both cohorts. Serum PTH levels within the RYBP group were significantly higher than the SG group across all time points. PTH levels significantly fell from 5.7 (IQR 4.2–7.4) to 5.00 (4.1–6.5) pmol/L by 24 months following SG. However, PTH levels following RYBP remained stable at 24 months, from 6.1 (IQR 4.7–8.7) to 6.4 (4.9–8.1) pmol/L. Furthermore, we failed to notice a significant improvement in PTH levels following RYBP among those with higher PTH levels preoperatively. Conclusion Higher PTH levels following RYBP, compared to SG, may imply we are undertreating patients who are inherently subjected to a greater degree of malabsorption and underlying nutritional deficiencies. This finding calls for a tailored supplementation protocol, particularly for those with high preoperative PTH levels undergoing RYBP, to prevent deficiencies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Most of the research indicated that daily dietary intake of minerals in SG patients was lower than the current recommendations. The aim of the study was to assess the need and safety of a mineral supplementation practice in adults with obesity, at 3, 6, and 9 months post bariatric surgery-sleeve gastrectomy (SG). METHODS The study included 24 women and 6 men. Based on a 4-day food record questionnaire, mineral and calorie intake was calculated at 3, 6, and 9 months after bariatric surgery (SG). Furthermore, an interview on supplement intake was also conducted. RESULTS It was found that in both men and women, there was a dietary intake deficiency of calcium (97% of respondents), potassium (97%), magnesium (83%), sodium (60%), and zinc (53%). In women, the deficiencies also included iron (50%) and copper (29%). Only 72% of the patients took dietary supplements. The applied supplementation did not adjust for the required intake of calcium in all of the patients, as well as the intake of magnesium in the male patients. Low intake of sodium and potassium were not supplemented and should be corrected by diet modification. The patients did not require supplementation of phosphorus or manganese, while male patients did not require iron or copper supplementation. The dietary and/or supplemental intake of minerals did not exceed the tolerable upper intake level (UL). CONCLUSION The results of the study confirm the need to implement personalized mineral supplementation for bariatric surgery patients.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is an effective option for managing obesity and has gained general acceptance among patients in recent years. Generally, despite the high caloric intake, a bad nutritional habit of obese people results in the deficiency of several vitamins, minerals, and trace elements essential for body metabolism and normal physiological processes. Additionally, the current bariatric surgical approaches such as sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y-gastric bypass (RYGB), laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), and jejunoileal bypass (JIB) can cause or exacerbate these deficiencies. Based on several reports, it appears that the various bariatric surgical procedures affect nutrient absorption differently. Being purely restrictive, LAGB and SG affect the absorption of iron, selenium, and vitamin B12, while RYGB, JIB, and biliopancreatic diversion have a more profound impact on the absorption of essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. Nutritional deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, and trace elements may follow bariatric surgery and are associated with clinical manifestations and diseases, including anemia, ataxia, hair loss, and Wernicke encephalopathy. The present review summarizes some of the major vitamin and micronutrient deficiencies associated with bariatric surgery, particularly those presented post-surgically. To avoid any adverse consequences of vitamin and trace element deficiency, proper monitoring and tests are recommended at any stage, from pre- to post-surgery (periodical check-up), followed by specific and individual nutritional supplementation treatments and a proper healthy diet.

Zinc absorption and zinc status are reduced after either sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in premenopausal women with severe obesity studied prospectively over 24 postoperative months. Am J Clin Nutr 2021; 114:322-329.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) is known to reduce zinc absorption; the effects of vertical sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and its long-term implications on zinc absorption have not yet been studied. OBJECTIVE The aim was to evaluate the effects of SG and RYGBP on zinc absorption and zinc status in premenopausal women with severe obesity up to 24 mo after surgery. METHODS Twenty-six premenopausal women undergoing SG [BMI (in kg/m2): 37.3 ± 3.2] and 32 undergoing RYGBP (BMI: 42.0 ± 4.2) were studied. A series of anthropometric, dietary, and zinc status parameters (plasma and hair zinc), and the size of the exchangeable zinc pool (EZP), as well as percentage zinc absorption from a standardized dose using a stable isotope methodology were evaluated in the patients before the surgical procedure and at 12 and 24 mo after SG or RYGBP. SG patients received 15 mg and RYGBP received 25 mg of supplemental Zn/d. RESULTS In premenopausal women, zinc absorption was decreased by 71.9% and 52.0% in SG and RYGBP, respectively, 24 mo postsurgery, compared with initial values. According to 2-factor repeated-measures ANOVA, time effect was significant (P = <0.0001), but not time × group interaction (P = 0.470). Plasma zinc below the cutoff point of 70 µg/dL increased from 0 to 15.4% and 38.1% in SG and RYGBP, respectively. Mean EZP was significantly reduced 24 mo after surgery, although no time × group interactions were observed. Hair zinc did not change across time or between groups. CONCLUSIONS Both SG and RYGBP have profound effects on zinc absorption capacity, which are not compensated for after 24 mo. Although zinc absorption reduction was similar in both types of surgeries, plasma zinc was more affected in RYGBP than SG, despite greater zinc supplementation in RYGBP.This trial was registered at http://www.isrctn.com as ISRCTN31937503.

Abstract
Despite what is known about risk factors, preventive treatment, and increased prevalence of fragility fractures in post-bariatric surgical patients, little is known about how patient perspectives of osteoporosis risk inform their commitment to bone health. The purpose of this study was to examine the lived experience of osteoporosis risk in people who have had bariatric surgery. Interpretive phenomenology was used to explore osteoporosis from the perspectives of patients who have had bariatric surgery. Eligibility criteria included female, age older than 18 years, and able to understand and speak English. This research provided an understanding of the risk of osteoporosis from the constructed realities and experiences of those who have had bariatric surgery. Participants in this study incorrectly felt they had little to no risk for osteoporosis after bariatric surgery. Patients need to be aware of an increased risk for osteoporosis leading to the potential for fragility fractures after bariatric surgery; nurses are well positioned to enhance osteoporosis prevention efforts in this population through pre- and postoperative education.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Evidence from observational studies suggests that obesity is associated with low vitamin D. As both obesity and hypovitaminosis D present an alarmingly increased prevalence worldwide, there is an intense research interest to clarify all aspects of this association. This review summarizes current evidence from meta-analyses investigating vitamin D status in obesity, including the effects of weight loss and bariatric surgery on vitamin D status and the outcomes of vitamin D supplementation on body weight. We also discuss potential pathophysiologic mechanisms and important controversies. RECENT FINDINGS Data from meta-analyses consistently support an inverse association of vitamin D levels with body weight. However, the impact of weight loss on improving vitamin D status is small, while studies on the supplementation with vitamin D after bariatric surgery have shown conflicting results regarding vitamin D status. Moreover, interventional studies do not support a beneficial effect of vitamin D supplementation on body weight. These findings warrant a cautious interpretation due to important methodological limitations and confounding factors, such as high heterogeneity of studies, variable methods of determination of vitamin D and definition of deficiency/insufficiency, use of various adiposity measures and definitions of obesity, and inadequate adjustment for confounding variables influencing vitamin D levels. The underlying pathogenetic mechanisms associating low vitamin D in obesity include volumetric dilution, sequestration into adipose tissue, limited sunlight exposure, and decreased vitamin D synthesis in the adipose tissue and liver. Experimental studies have demonstrated that low vitamin D may be implicated in adipose tissue differentiation and growth leading to obesity either by regulation of gene expression or through modulation of parathyroid hormone, calcium, and leptin. Obesity is associated with low vitamin D status but weight loss has little effect on improving this; vitamin D supplementation is also not associated with weight loss. Evidence regarding vitamin D status after bariatric surgery is contradicting. The link between vitamin D and obesity remains controversial due to important limitations and confounding of studies. More research is needed to clarify the complex interplay between vitamin D and adiposity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of obesity is considered to be increased worldwide. Lack of mineral elements is one of the essential side effects of bariatric surgery as a trending treatment for obesity. We aimed to assess zinc deficiency among morbidly obese patients before and following different types of bariatric surgical procedures. METHODS In the present retrospective cohort study, 413 morbidly obese patients (body mass index (BMI) ≥ 40 kg/m2 or BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 with a complication or risk factor, e.g., diabetes mellitus) were enrolled who received bariatric surgery, aged between 18 and 65 years old, and had a negative history of active consumption of alcohol and illicit drugs. Patients were assigned into three groups of bariatric surgeries: mini-gastric bypass, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and sleeve gastrectomy (SG). We recorded baseline clinical and demographic characteristics and zinc serum levels during the preoperative and postoperative follow-up periods at three, six, and 12 months after the operation. RESULTS All patients with a mean age of 40.57 ± 10.63 years and a mean preoperative BMI of 45.78 ± 6.02 kg/m2 underwent bariatric surgery. 10.2% of the bariatric patients experienced zinc deficiency before the surgery, and 27.1% at 1 year after the surgery. The results showed that 27.7% of mini-gastric bypass patients, 29.8% of RYGB, and 13.3% of SG experienced zinc deficiency 12 months following surgery. We observed no statistical differences in the preoperative and postoperative zinc deficiency between different types of surgeries. CONCLUSION A high prevalence of preoperative zinc deficiency among morbidly obese patients who underwent bariatric surgery was observed, which increased during the postoperative periods. We recommend assessing zinc serum levels and prescribing zinc supplements before the bariatric operation to alleviate the prevalence of zinc deficiency after the operation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess serum vitamin D trend from baseline to 12 months after one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this observational cohort analysis of longitudinal data, we assessed the trend of serum vitamin D, and its associations with anthropometric, and biochemical measurements in 98 patients undergoing OAGB in a bariatric surgery center. All participants were on >800 IU/day vitamin D supplementation. RESULTS Vitamin D, lipid profile, creatinine, and albumin levels significantly improved at 12 months post-surgery. Vitamin D concentrations significantly increased from 26.52 ± 12.32 to 54.52 ± 27.90 ng/mL at 12 months. The correlations between vitamin D concentrations and weight, body mass index, lipid profile, ferritin, glycemic indices, and albumin were not significant. In addition, the correlations between vitamin D and parathormone, vitamin D receptor, calcium, phosphorus, body composition, and basal metabolic rate (BMR) did not reach the threshold of statistical significance at 12 months following bariatric surgery. Although there was a significant correlation between body weight and body composition (P < 0.001) and basal metabolic rate (BMR) (r = 0.762, P < 0.001) at 12 months, there were no significant correlations between weight change percent and body composition (P > 0.05), BMR (r = -0.101, P = 0.350), and vitamin D (r = 0.120, P = 0.271) at 12 months. CONCLUSION Our results showed that supplementation of vitamin D with dosage of >800 IU/day is sufficient for prevention of vitamin D deficiency within 12 months after OAGB surgery. Note: This data is mandatory.

Abstract
Obesity and gastric bypass surgery can complicate anticoagulation therapy. In general, patients post-bariatric surgery are considered to be at a moderate risk for deep venous thromboembolism or pulmonary embolism. American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists/American College of Endocrinology, The Obesity Society, American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery, Obesity Medicine Association, and American Society of Anesthesiologists guidelines recommend chemical prophylaxis with unfractionated heparin or low molecular weight heparin after surgery until the patient is fully mobile, and for those who require chronic anticoagulation, the International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis recommend warfarin if body mass index (BMI) is above 40 kg/m2 or weight is more than 120 kg. Clinical decision making regarding anticoagulation in the following patient case is complicated by multiple factors, most notably the combination of obesity and history of gastric bypass surgery. This patient failed multiple anticoagulation regimens, with apixaban and rivaroxaban therapies each ending in venous thromboemboli and warfarin leading to subtherapeutic International Normalized Ratio (INR)s despite dose adjustment. However, she is currently therapeutic on the combination of enoxaparin and warfarin as shown by INR and anti-Xa level monitoring. In this case and similar instances, there could be a need for anticoagulant dose adjustments, different INR goals, or a combination of different anticoagulants. Providers should take an individualized approach to patients who have had bariatric surgery with elevated BMI as a key factor in anticoagulant selection.

Abstract
Linked to the growing obesity epidemic, demand for bariatric and metabolic surgery has increased, the most common procedures being sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Originally, bariatric procedures were described as purely restrictive, malabsorptive, or combined restrictive-malabsorptive procedures limiting food intake, nutrient absorption, or both. Nowadays, anatomical alterations are known to affect gastrointestinal physiology, which in turn affects the digestion and absorption of nutrients and drugs. Therefore, understanding gastrointestinal physiology is crucial to prevent postoperative nutritional deficiencies and to optimise postoperative drug therapy. Preclinical and clinical research indicates that sleeve gastrectomy accelerates liquid and solid gastric emptying and small intestinal transit, and increases bile acid serum levels, whereas its effects on gastrointestinal acidity, gastric and pancreatic secretions, surface area, and colonic transit remain largely unknown. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass diminishes gastric acid secretion, accelerates liquid gastric emptying, and increases bile acid serum levels, but its effects on intestinal pH, solid gastric emptying, intestinal transit time, gastric enzyme secretions, and surface area remain largely unknown. In this Review, we summarise current knowledge of the effects of these two procedures on gastrointestinal physiology and assess the knowledge gaps.

Abstract
Copper is an essential element in living systems and plays an important role in human physiology; therefore, methods to detect the concentration of copper ions in living organisms are important. Herein, we report a highly water-soluble naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe that can be used for the detection of Cu2+. The probe, BNQ, has high selectivity and sensitivity. The fluorescence intensity of the probe at 520 nm was visible to the naked eye under a UV lamp; upon the gradual addition of Cu2+, there was a colour change from green to nearly colourless. Furthermore, the detection limit of BNQ for Cu2+ was 45.5 nM. The detection mechanism was investigated using a Job's plot and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In addition, owing to great biocompatibility, we were able to successfully use BNQ to detect Cu2+ in living HeLa cells with low toxicity. Probe BNQ was successfully used for detection of exogenous Cu2+ in cells using a rare ESDPT sensing mechanism.![]()

Abstract
Nutritional care after bariatric surgery is an issue of major importance, especially insofar as risk of deficiency has been extensively described in the literature. Subsequent to the deliberations carried out by a multidisciplinary working group, we are proposing a series of recommendations elaborated using the Delphi-HAS (official French health authority) method, which facilitates the drawing up of best practice and consensus recommendations based on the data of the literature and on expert opinion. The recommendations in this paper pertain to dietary management and physical activity, multivitamin and trace element supplementation and the prevention and treatment of specific deficiencies in vitamins B1, B9, B12, D and calcium, iron, zinc, vitamins A, E and K, dumping syndrome and reactive hypoglycemia.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for patients with morbid obesity. However, as safe and common as bariatric procedures have become, multiple complications can still result. These complications vary depending on the type of procedure performed (malabsorptive or restrictive) and are often nutritional derangements from the altered malabsorptive surface of the gastrointestinal tract and decreased capacity of the stomach. Deficiencies in vitamin D after malabsorptive procedures such as the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass can result in subsequent hypocalcemia and bone demineralization, and anemias can also present after surgery from inadequate vitamin B12 and iron absorption. Because of the prevalence of these deficiencies, baseline micronutrient testing and postoperative screening are recommended in many cases. Additionally, supplemental treatment often requires higher doses than those recommended for healthy adults. The purpose of this narrative review is to outline the various nutrient deficiencies that can result from bariatric procedures and report previously-published recommendations for screening and medical treatment of patients with these deficiencies. This review is directed toward primary care practitioners because of their unique position in delivering continuity of care and the frequency with which they will encounter patients who have undergone bariatric surgery and are seeking counseling regarding weight loss modalities.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective treatments currently available for obesity and its derived comorbidities. However, complications may occur, especially when malabsorptive surgeries like a biliopancreatic diversion is performed. We present the case of a female patient whose obesity was treated with this technique, and in the 9th year of follow-up developed an extensive dermatitis secondary to zinc deficiency and malnutrition, precipitated by therapeutic non-compliance. A close surveillance of early symptoms and signs of nutritional deficiencies as well as chronic supplementation of vitamins and trace elements is required; this case illustrates the relevance of periodical, lifelong visits to a medical physician with special training and experience in the management of post bariatric surgery patients in order to prevent, diagnosis and early treat related complications.

Essential trace elements in Norwegian obese patients before and 12 months after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery: Copper, manganese, selenium and zinc. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2020; 62:126650. [PMID: 33011630 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2020.126650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2020] [Revised: 08/21/2020] [Accepted: 09/16/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of the present study was to assess trace element status in morbidly obese subjects before and one year after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in order to identify possible deficiencies. METHODS The study population included 46 patients in the age range 27-59 years, the majority (85 %) were women. The enrolled patients attended an eight week course on lifestyle changes before bariatric surgery. After RYGB they were recommended daily micronutrient supplements with a commonly used multivitamin-mineral tablet in addition to intramuscular vitamin B12 injections (1 mg) every third month for 12 months. Whole blood concentrations of Cu, Mn, Se and Zn were determined using high resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. RESULTS During the 12 months follow up after bariatric surgery, the patients had lost mean 32.3 kg and median whole blood concentrations of Cu (-16 %) were reduced, Mn (+14 %) and Zn (+6%) were increased, while the Se values were essentially unchanged. Compared with reference ranges, median postoperative concentrations of all essential trace elements were either below (Zn) or in the lower reference range (Cu, Mn, Se). CONCLUSION Essential trace elements were below or in the lower reference range twelve months after RYGB. Our results indicate a need for updated guidelines in Nordic countries for trace metal monitoring and supplements in patients after bariatric surgery, especially when gastric bypass surgery is used. Further studies are required to explore and prevent trace element deficiency related to obesity and bariatric surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is one of most effective long-term treatments for morbid obesity. However, post-bariatric surgery anemia is identified as a common adverse effect and remains a challenge nowadays.
AIM To estimate the risk of post-bariatric surgery anemia and to stratify the association between age, gender, and types of surgery.
METHODS This study is a population-based cohort study. We conducted this nationwide study using claims data from National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. There were 4373 morbidly obese patients in this study cohort.
RESULTS Among patients who were diagnosed with morbid obesity, 2864 received bariatric surgery. All obesity-associated comorbidities decreased in the surgical group. Increasing risk of post-bariatric surgery anemia among obese patients was found by Cox proportional hazards regression [adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 2.36]. Also, we found significantly increasing cumulative incidence rate of anemia among patients receiving bariatric surgery by log-rank test. After adjusting for age and gender, the increasing incidence of post-bariatric surgery anemia was found among women (adjusted HR: 2.48), patients in the 20–29-year-old group (adjusted HR: 3.83), and patients in the 30-64-year-old group (adjusted HR: 2.37). Moreover, malabsorptive and restrictive procedures had significantly higher adjusted HRs, 3.18 and 1.55, respectively.
CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery give rise to anemia risk among obese patients, specifically in women, young- and middle-aged patients, and patients undergoing malabsorptive procedures in our population-based cohort study in Taiwan.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Copper is a mineral that is absorbed in the stomach, duodenum, and jejunum. Gastric bypass surgery, gastrectomy, and short-bowel syndrome commonly lead to copper malabsorption. Copper deficiency primarily presents with hematological and neurological sequelae, including macrocytic anemia and myelopathy. Although hematological disturbances often correct with copper supplementation, neurological manifestations of copper deficiency may be irreversible. We present the case of copper deficiency secondary to malabsorption and management strategies to prevent irreversible neurological sequelae. PRESENTATION A 48-year-old female with a history of hypothyroidism, ischemic stroke, and Crohn's disease, complicated by subtotal colectomy and small-bowel resections, was admitted for fatigue and progressive neurological deficiencies. Her vital signs were stable, and physical examination was remarkable for weakness of both upper and lower extremities, ataxia, and upper extremities paresthesia. Computed tomography scan of the head without contrast was unremarkable. Magnetic resonance imaging enterography revealed a focal area of narrowing of the remaining small bowel. Copper level was low at 39 µg/dL. After 5 days of intravenous replacement using trace element within parenteral nutrition, her copper level corrected to 81 µg/dL. Her ataxia improved after intravenous copper supplementation and did not recur. CONCLUSIONS Our patient presented with copper deficiency secondary to malabsoprtion. This case highlights the importance of copper testing in the bariatric surgery population and in patients with short-bowel syndrome. Given the irreversible nature of neurological symptoms when compared with the expense of nutrition supplements, routine copper testing should be considered in patients with malabsorptive states or altered anatomy, regardless of initial presentation.

Abstract
Introduction: The incidence and significance of hyperparathyroidism in patients after bariatric surgery have been established to some degree; however, the impact it has on the national healthcare system has not. We sought to assess the risk of readmission and related comorbidities in this patient population. Methods: The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project Nationwide Readmission Database was queried for all patients who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors associated with readmission for hyperparathyroidism. Results: A total of 915,792 patients between 2010 and 2015 were queried; 43.2% had undergone SG and 56.8% had RYGB. A total of 589 patients were readmitted for hyperparathyroidism; 80.8% were female and 68% had a Charlson comorbidity index ≥ 2. Factors associated with readmission were as follows: age 45-64 years (odds ratio [OR] 1.42, p=0.001), Medicare (OR 3.01, p<0.001) or Medicaid (OR 2.61, p<0.001) insurance status, lower median household income, renal failure (OR 17.14, p<0.001), hypertension (OR 2.89, p<0.001), and deficiency anemia (OR 2.62, p<0.01). Conclusions: Parathyroid axis monitoring may provide benefits to predictably high-risk patients. Appropriate surveillance may decrease the impact of bariatric hyperparathyroidism readmission on the U.S. healthcare system.

Abstract
Obesity is a global epidemic in developed countries accounting for many of the metabolic and cardiorespiratory morbidities that occur in adults. These morbidities include type 2 diabetes, sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), obstructive sleep apnea, chronic intermittent hypoxia, and hypertension. Leptin, produced by adipocytes, is a master regulator of metabolism and of many other biological functions including central and peripheral circuits that control breathing. By binding to receptors on cells and neurons in the brainstem, hypothalamus, and carotid body, leptin links energy and metabolism to breathing. In this comprehensive article, we review the central and peripheral locations of leptin's actions that affect cardiorespiratory responses during health and disease, with a particular focus on obesity, SDB, and its effects during early development. Obesity-induced hyperleptinemia is associated with centrally mediated hypoventilation with decrease CO2 sensitivity. On the other hand, hyperleptinemia augments peripheral chemoreflexes to hypoxia and induces sympathoexcitation. Thus, "leptin resistance" in obesity is relative. We delineate the circuits responsible for these divergent effects, including signaling pathways. We review the unique effects of leptin during development on organogenesis, feeding behavior, and cardiorespiratory responses, and how undernutrition and overnutrition during critical periods of development can lead to cardiorespiratory comorbidities in adulthood. We conclude with suggestions for future directions to improve our understanding of leptin dysregulation and associated clinical diseases and possible therapeutic targets. Lastly, we briefly discuss the yin and the yang, specifically the contribution of relative adiponectin deficiency in adults with hyperleptinemia to the development of metabolic and cardiovascular disease. © 2020 American Physiological Society.

Feasibility of Mass-Spectrometry to Lower Cost and Blood Volume Requirements for Assessment of B Vitamins in Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery. Metabolites 2020; 10:metabo10060240. [PMID: 32531925 PMCID: PMC7345798 DOI: 10.3390/metabo10060240] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2020] [Revised: 06/05/2020] [Accepted: 06/08/2020] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Bariatric surgery induces deficiencies in a combination of B vitamins. However, high costs and a large blood volume requirement are barriers to routine screening. We adapted and validated a method coupling tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to facilitate cost-effective analysis for simultaneous detection of B vitamins in low volumes of plasma. Based on existing methods, pooled plasma was extracted using hexane and acetonitrile and seven B vitamin analytes were separated using HPLC. Detection was performed with an Agilent 6460 triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer (MS/MS) using electrospray ionization in the positive ion mode. We evaluated linearity, recovery, precision, and limit of detection, as well as costs of the assay. We evaluated seven B vitamins from plasma; five (riboflavin, nicotinamide, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, and biotin) were detected and quantified with precision and linearity. Recovery ranged from 63 to 81% for each of the vitamins, except for nicotinamide—the recovery of which was suppressed to 40%, due to plasma matrix effects. We demonstrated the feasibility of the HPLC–MS/MS method for use in patients who undergo bariatric surgery by analyzing pooled plasma from patients with a lower cost and blood volume than had we sent the samples to a commercial laboratory. It is advantageous and feasible, in terms of low cost and blood volume requirement, to simultaneously measure plasma concentrations of B vitamins using HPLC–MS/MS. With further improvements, the method may enable personalized nutritional assessment for the nutritionally compromised, bariatric surgery population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are the two most frequently performed bariatric operations. These two types of metabolic surgery alter the anatomy and function of digestive tract producing significant weight loss in morbidly obese patients but may lead to malnutrition. AIM Analysis of incidence and severity of malnutrition after bariatric surgery in patients submitted to RYGB or LSG during 12 months of follow-up. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective study of 98 patients after RYGB (n = 47) or LSG (n = 51) assessed for nutritional deficiencies during 12 months after surgery was conducted. The differences in body mass index (BMI) and blood tests including erythrocytes, haemoglobin, total protein, albumin, iron, ferritin, transferrin, vitamin B12, folic acid, calcium and phosphorus concentrations were compared between groups before the operations and at 1 and 12 months. RESULTS Nutritional deficiencies were common before surgery with prevalence up to 19.6% for albumin in the LSG group. Median preoperative BMI levels and albumin concentrations were higher in the RYGB group compared to the LSG group, but there was no difference in percent excess weight loss (%EWL) at 1 and 12 months between LSG and RYGB. One month after LSG erythrocyte count, haemoglobin, iron, ferritin and transferrin levels were significantly higher than in the RYGB group. These differences subsided at 12 months. At 12 months, only the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency was significantly higher in the RYGB group. CONCLUSION Both RYGB and LSG lead to nutritional deficiencies despite different properties of operations and similar %EWL during follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Little is known about prevalence and risk factors for nutritional deficiencies in adolescents after metabolic bariatric surgery. We performed a 5-year prospective cohort study of these. METHODS Adolescents who had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB, n = 161) or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG, n = 67) were enrolled at 5 tertiary-care centers from March 2007 through February 2012. The final analysis cohort included 226 participants (161 who had RYGB and 65 who had VSG). We measured serum levels of ferritin; red blood cell folate; vitamins A, D, B1, B12; and parathyroid hormone at baseline and annually for 5 years. General linear mixed models were used to examine changes over time and identify factors associated with nutritional deficiencies. RESULTS The participants were 75% female and 72% white, with a mean age of 16.5 ± 1.6 years and mean body mass index of 52.7 ± 9.4 kg/m2 at surgery. Mean body mass index decreased 23% at 5 years, and did not differ significantly between procedures. After RYGB, but not VSG, serum concentrations of vitamin B12 significantly decreased whereas serum levels of transferrin and parathyroid hormone increased. Ferritin levels decreased significantly after both procedures. Hypo-ferritinemia was observed in 2.5% of patients before RYGB and 71% at 5 y after RYGB (P < .0001), and 11% of patients before VSG and 45% 5 y after VSG (P = .002). No significant changes in serum levels of folate or vitamins A, B1, or D were found between baseline and 5 y after either procedure. By 5 y, 59% of RYGB and 27% of VSG recipients had 2 or more nutritional deficiencies. Risk factors associated with specific deficiencies included surgery type, female sex, black race, supplementation intake, weight regain, and for females, pregnancy. CONCLUSIONS In a prospective study of adolescents who underwent RYGB or VSG, we observed nutritional deficiencies by 5 y after the procedures-particularly in iron and B12 after RYGB. Ongoing nutrient monitoring and supplementation are recommended for all patients, but surgery type, supplementation intake, sex, and race might affect risk.

Abstract
25 years ago, the future of treating obesity and diabetes focused on end organs known to be involved in energy balance and glucose regulation, including the brain, muscle, adipose tissue, and pancreas. Today, the most effective therapies are focused around the gut. This includes surgical options, such as vertical sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, that can produce sustained weight loss and diabetes remission but also extends to pharmacological treatments that simulate or amplify various signals that come from the gut. The purpose of this Review is to discuss the wealth of approaches currently under development that seek to further leverage the gut as a source of novel therapeutic opportunities with the hope that we can achieve the effects of surgical interventions with less invasive and more scalable solutions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The development of these updated clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) was commissioned by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE), The Obesity Society (TOS), American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS), Obesity Medicine Association (OMA), and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Boards of Directors in adherence with the AACE 2017 protocol for standardized production of CPGs, algorithms, and checklists. METHODS Each recommendation was evaluated and updated based on new evidence from 2013 to the present and subjective factors provided by experts. RESULTS New or updated topics in this CPG include: contextualization in an adiposity-based chronic disease complications-centric model, nuance-based and algorithm/checklist-assisted clinical decision-making about procedure selection, novel bariatric procedures, enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery protocols, and logistical concerns (including cost factors) in the current health care arena. There are 85 numbered recommendations that have updated supporting evidence, of which 61 are revised and 12 are new. Noting that there can be multiple recommendation statements within a single numbered recommendation, there are 31 (13%) Grade A, 42 (17%) Grade B, 72 (29%) Grade C, and 101 (41%) Grade D recommendations. There are 858 citations, of which 81 (9.4%) are evidence level (EL) 1 (highest), 562 (65.5%) are EL 2, 72 (8.4%) are EL 3, and 143 (16.7%) are EL 4 (lowest). CONCLUSIONS Bariatric procedures remain a safe and effective intervention for higher-risk patients with obesity. Clinical decision-making should be evidence based within the context of a chronic disease. A team approach to perioperative care is mandatory, with special attention to nutritional and metabolic issues.

Abstract
GENERAL PURPOSE To provide information on obesity, bariatric surgery, and the nutrient deficiency-related dermatoses that may result from these surgeries. TARGET AUDIENCE This continuing education activity is intended for physicians, physician assistants, NPs, and nurses with an interest in skin and wound care. LEARNING OBJECTIVES/OUTCOMES After participating in this educational activity, the participant should be better able to:1. Examine issues related to obesity and bariatric surgery.2. Identify the sources and role of specific nutrients.3. Recognize the clinical signs and symptoms of nutrient deficiency following bariatric surgery. ABSTRACT Obesity is a global epidemic that increases the risk of weight-related comorbidities in modern society. It is complex, multifactorial, and largely preventable. Noninvasive treatments for obesity include diet, exercise, and medication. However, bariatric surgeries are becoming popular procedures for those who do not achieve success with noninvasive weight management treatment. Bariatric surgeries often result in dietary restriction and/or malabsorption, which lead to drastic weight loss. Individuals who had bariatric surgeries need lifelong follow-up and monitoring to ensure adequate intake of nutrients. Nutrient deficiencies can ensue when long-term vitamin and mineral supplementation is not followed. Severe nutrient deficiencies may lead to dermatoses that can be corrected by nutrient repletion and careful monitoring. A case report of nutrient deficiency-related dermatoses is followed by a review of obesity and its treatments with a focus on bariatric surgeries.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with reduced gut microbial diversity and a high rate of micronutrient deficiency. Bariatric surgery, the therapy of choice for severe obesity, produces sustained weight loss and improvements in obesity-related comorbidities. Also, it significantly alters the gut microbiota (GM) composition and function, which might have an important impact on the micronutrient status as GM is able to synthesize certain vitamins, such as riboflavin, folate, B12, or vitamin K2. However, recent data have reported that GM is not fully restored after bariatric surgery; therefore, manipulation of GM through probiotics represents a promising therapeutic approach in bariatric patients. In this review, we discuss the latest evidence concerning the relationship between obesity, GM and micronutrients, the impact of bariatric surgery on GM in relation with micronutrients equilibrium, and the importance of the probiotics' supplementation in obese patients submitted to surgical treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Intragastric balloon (IGB) treatment of obesity is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that has been shown to help weight loss in some patients. The aim of this study is to analyze the long-term results regarding the effectiveness, tolerability, and patient satisfaction in a cohort of patients undergoing the IGB insertion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using a retrospective cohort study design, patients who had their IGB inserted/removed between the years 2009 and 2016 were contacted by phone and asked to answer a short questionnaire. The baseline characteristics, pre- and post- IGB weight, as well as their current weight were recorded. Different parameters of satisfaction were noted in addition to whether patients resorted to alternative weight-reduction measures. RESULTS Ninety-nine eligible patients were contacted, and 65 consented to the study. The average weight loss achieved at the end of the treatment period (3 to 10 months) was approximately a 12% decrease from the baseline. Only 39% of patients were satisfied with the procedure, and less than 50% were satisfied with the weight loss achieved. When assessing the long-term follow-up, years after the IGB removal (3.3±1.76 years), the vast majority of patients (78.7%) regained weight or resorted to further bariatric measures. CONCLUSION IGB leads to weight loss among most patients, but it does not appear to fulfill patients' expectations. Further, the initial weight loss is not sustainable over time.

Abstract
In recent decades there has been an alarming increase in the prevalence of obesity in patients with type 1 diabetes leading to the development of insulin resistance and cardiometabolic complications, with mechanisms poorly clarified. While bariatric surgery has long been considered an effective treatment option for patients with type 2 diabetes, the evidence regarding its benefits on weight loss and the prevention of complications in T1DM patients is scarce, with controversial outcomes. Bariatric surgery has been associated with a significant reduction in daily insulin requirement, along with a considerable reduction in body mass index, results which were sustained in the long term. Furthermore, studies suggest that bariatric surgery in type 1 diabetes results in the improvement of comorbidities related to obesity including hypertension and dyslipidemia. However, regarding glycemic control, the reduction of mean glycosylated hemoglobin was modest or statistically insignificant in most studies. The reasons for these results are yet to be elucidated; possible explanations include preservation of beta cell mass and increased residual function post-surgery, improvement in insulin action, altered GLP-1 function, timing of surgery, and association with residual islet cell mass. A number of concerns regarding safety issues have arisen due to the reporting of peri-operative and post-operative adverse events. The most significant complications are metabolic and include diabetic ketoacidosis, severe hypoglycemia and glucose fluctuations. Further prospective clinical studies are required to provide evidence for the effect of bariatric surgery on T1DM patients. The results may offer a better knowledge for the selection of people living with diabetes who will benefit more from a metabolic surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Micronutrient deficiencies are highly prevalent in patients seeking metabolic-bariatric surgery (MBS), although literature remains scant in Asia. In this study, we assess the prevalence of nutritional deficiencies in patients with clinically severe obesity in Singapore and examine factors associated with the deficiencies. METHODS This is a prospective, observational study of 577 consecutive patients scheduled to undergo MBS. Nutritional profile including renal panel, calcium, phosphate, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), vitamin B12, folate, ferritin, iron studies, hemoglobin, albumin, and alkaline phosphatase were analyzed. RESULTS Mean age was 40.6 ± 10.3 years, 61.2% female, and mean BMI 42.4 ± 8.4 kg/m2. 92.9% had suboptimal vitamin D levels; of which 25.6% had vitamin D insufficiency (25(OH)D < 30 mcg/L), 57.5% had vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D < 20 mcg/L), and 9.8% had severe vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D < 10 mcg/L). Younger age, female gender, and higher BMI were independent factors associated with lower 25(OH)D. There was an inverse relationship between iPTH and 25(OH)D, with an inflection point at 25(OH)D of approximately 20 mcg/L. Folate deficiency was present in 31% and vitamin B12 deficiency in 9.5% of the cohort. Serum ferritin levels were low in 29.3%. 25(OH)D, ferritin, serum iron, and albumin were also significantly higher in Chinese compared to Malay and Indian patients. CONCLUSION Vitamin D deficiency was the most common micronutrient deficiency observed in this multi-ethnic Asian cohort presenting for MBS. Ethnic differences in nutritional status were observed.

Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2019; 64:e01961-19. [PMID: 31658967 PMCID: PMC7187605 DOI: 10.1128/aac.01961-19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2019] [Accepted: 10/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Siderophore-antibiotic conjugates have increased in vitro activity in low-iron environments where bacteria express siderophores and associated transporters. The host immune hypoferremic response reduces iron availability to bacteria; however, patients with iron overload or deficiency may have altered ability to restrict iron, which may affect the efficacy of siderophore-antibiotic conjugates. In vivo models of infection with iron overload and deficiency are needed to perform this assessment. The standard neutropenic murine thigh infection model was supplemented with iron-altering treatments: iron dextran at 100 mg/kg of body weight daily for 14 days to load iron or deferoxamine at 100 mg/kg daily plus a low-iron diet for up to 30 days to deplete iron. Human-simulated regimens of cefiderocol and meropenem were administered in both models to assess any impact of iron alteration on plasma pharmacokinetics. Median iron in overloaded mice was significantly higher than that of controls in plasma (1,657 versus 336 μg/dl; P < 0.001), liver (2,133 versus 11 μg/g; P < 0.001), and spleen (473 versus 144 μg/g; P < 0.001). At 30 days, depleted mice had significantly lower iron than controls in liver (2.4 versus 6.5 μg/g; P < 0.001) and spleen (72 versus 133 μg/g; P = 0.029) but not plasma (351 versus 324 μg/dl; P = 0.95). Cefiderocol and meropenem plasma concentrations were similar in iron overloaded and control mice but varied in iron-depleted mice. The iron-overloaded murine thigh infection model was established, and human-simulated regimens of cefiderocol and meropenem were validated therein. While deferoxamine successfully reduced liver and splenic iron, this depleting treatment altered the pharmacokinetics of both antimicrobials.

Abstract
The goal of the National Institutes of Health-funded American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition 2017 research workshop (RW) "Gastric Bypass: Role of the Gut" was to focus on the exciting research evaluating gut-derived signals in modulating outcomes after bariatric surgery. Although gastric bypass surgery has undoubted positive effects, the mechanistic basis of improved outcomes cannot be solely explained by caloric restriction. Emerging data suggest that bile acid metabolic pathways, luminal contents, energy balance, gut mucosal integrity, as well as the gut microbiota are significantly modulated after bariatric surgery and may be responsible for the variable outcomes, each of which was rigorously evaluated. The RW served as a timely and novel academic meeting that brought together clinicians and researchers across the scientific spectrum, fostering a unique venue for interdisciplinary collaboration among investigators. It promoted engaging discussion and evolution of new research hypotheses and ideas, driving the development of novel ameliorative, therapeutic, and nonsurgical interventions targeting obesity and its comorbidities. Importantly, a critical evaluation of the current knowledge regarding gut-modulated signaling after bariatric surgery, potential pitfalls, and lacunae were thoroughly addressed.
