[PMID: 38908268 PMCID: PMC11330732 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2024.06.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is strongly associated with obesity. While the relationship between weight reduction and apnea-hypopnea index improvement has been documented, to our knowledge, it has not been quantified adequately. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify the relationship between weight reduction and AHI change. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed using meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines for studies reporting AHI and weight loss in people with obesity/overweight and OSA between 2000 and 2023. A linear and quadratic model (weighted by treatment arm sample size) predicted percent change from baseline AHI against mean percent change from baseline weight. The quadratic term was statistically significant (P < 0.05), so the quadratic model (with 95 % prediction interval) was used. RESULTS The literature search identified 27 studies/32 treatment arms: 15 using bariatric surgery and lifestyle intervention each and 2 using pharmacological interventions. Included studies were ≥3 months with weight intervention and participants had AHI ≥15/h. Weight reduction in people with OSA and obesity was associated with improvements in the severity of OSA. BMI reduction of 20 % was associated with AHI reduction of 57 %, while further weight reduction beyond 20 % in BMI was associated with a smaller effect on AHI. As the prediction intervals are relatively wide, a precise relationship could not be conclusively established. CONCLUSION The degree of AHI index improvement was associated with the magnitude of weight reduction. The model suggests that with progress in weight reduction beyond 20 %, the incremental decrease in BMI appeared to translate to a smaller additional effect on AHI.

[PMID: 38843138 PMCID: PMC11156280 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0298402] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery leads to sustained weight loss in a majority of recipients, and also reduces fasting insulin levels and markers of inflammation. We described the long-term associations between bariatric surgery and clinical outcomes including 30 morbidities. METHODS We did a retrospective population-based cohort study of 304,157 adults with severe obesity, living in Alberta, Canada; 6,212 of whom had bariatric surgery. We modelled adjusted time to mortality, hospitalization, surgery and the adjusted incidence/prevalence of 30 new or ongoing morbidities after 5 years of follow-up. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 4.4 years (range 1 day-22.0 years), bariatric surgery was associated with increased risk of hospitalization (HR 1.46, 95% CI 1.41,1.51) and additional surgery (HR 1.42, 95% CI 1.32,1.52) but with a decreased risk of mortality (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.64,0.91). After 5 years (median of 9.9 years), bariatric surgery was associated with a lower risk of severe chronic kidney disease (HR 0.45, 95% CI 0.27,0.75), coronary disease (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.33,0.72), diabetes (HR 0.51, 95% CI 0.47,0.56), inflammatory bowel disease (HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.37,0.83), hypertension (HR 0.70, 95% CI 0.66,0.75), chronic pulmonary disease (HR 0.75, 95% CI 0.66,0.86), asthma (HR 0.79, 95% 0.65,0.96), cancer (HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.65,0.96), and chronic heart failure (HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.64,0.96). In contrast, after 5 years, bariatric surgery was associated with an increased risk of peptic ulcer (HR 1.99, 95% CI 1.32,3.01), alcohol misuse (HR 1.55, 95% CI 1.25,1.94), frailty (HR 1.28, 95% 1.11,1.46), severe constipation (HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.07,1.49), sleep disturbance (HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.08,1.35), depression (HR 1.18, 95% CI 1.10,1.27), and chronic pain (HR 1.12, 95% CI 1.04,1.20). INTERPRETATION Bariatric surgery was associated with lower risks of death and certain morbidities. However, bariatric surgery was also associated with increased risk of hospitalization and additional surgery, as well as certain other morbidities. Since values and preferences for these various benefits and harms may differ between individuals, this suggests that comprehensive counselling should be offered to patients considering bariatric surgery.

The efficacy of bariatric surgery on pulmonary function and sleep architecture of patients with obstructive sleep apnea and co-morbid obesity: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2023; 19:1444-1457.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in patients with morbid obesity. There is a growing interest in the role of bariatric surgery in OSA management. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of bariatric surgery on changes in pulmonary function and sleep architecture. Studies of patients with OSA that underwent bariatric surgery were searched in 4 different databases (PubMed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Embase) until October 31, 2022. We identified studies evaluating the efficacy of surgical intervention on primary outcomes (body mass index [BMI] and apnea-hypopnea index [AHI]) and secondary outcomes such as forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC, oxygen desaturation index (ODI), T90, mean oxygen saturation (SpO2), nadirSpO2, sleep efficiency (SE), N1%, N2%, N3%, rapid eye movement (REM%), arousal index, Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), neck circumference, waist circumference, and weight. A total of 24 eligible studies were finally chosen. Risk of bias assessed through funnel plots was collected and analyzed via random effects meta-analyses. There were significant reductions in BMI and AHI after bariatric surgery induced weight loss. Accordingly, improvement in FVC, meanSpO2, nadirSpO2, SE, N3%, REM%, and ESS were observed compared with baseline. Patients with OSA also exhibit lower ODI, T90, arousal index, neck circumference, waist circumference, and weight after treatment. Bariatric surgery has beneficial effects on patients with OSA and obesity, particularly with morbid obesity. Surgical weight loss significantly eliminates apnea-hypopnea events, reduces weight, increases oxygen saturation, N3 and REM sleep stage, reduces sleep fragmentation, and improves pulmonary functions with augmented FVC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This systematic review provides supporting evidence for the accompanying clinical practice guideline on the referral of adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) for surgical consultation. METHODS The American Academy of Sleep Medicine commissioned a task force of experts in sleep medicine. A systematic review was conducted to identify studies that compared the use of upper airway sleep apnea surgery or bariatric surgery to no treatment as well as studies that reported on patient-important and physiologic outcomes pre- and postoperatively. Statistical analyses were performed to determine the clinical significance of using surgery to treat obstructive sleep apnea in adults. Finally, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) process was used to assess the evidence for making recommendations. RESULTS The literature search resulted in 274 studies that provided data suitable for statistical analyses. The analyses demonstrated that surgery as a rescue therapy results in a clinically significant reduction in excessive sleepiness, snoring, blood pressure (BP), apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), respiratory disturbance index (RDI), and oxygen desaturation index (ODI); an increase in lowest oxygen saturation (LSAT) and sleep quality; and an improvement in quality of life in adults with OSA who are intolerant or unaccepting of positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy. The analyses demonstrated that surgery as an adjunctive therapy results in a clinically significant reduction in optimal PAP pressure and improvement in PAP adherence in adults with OSA who are intolerant or unaccepting of PAP due to side effects associated with high pressure requirements. The analyses also demonstrated that surgery as an initial treatment results in a clinically significant reduction in AHI/RDI, sleepiness, snoring, BP, and ODI and an increase in LSAT in adults with OSA and major anatomical obstruction. Analysis of bariatric surgery data showed a clinically significant reduction in BP, AHI/RDI, sleepiness, snoring, optimal PAP level, BMI, and ODI and an increase in LSAT in adults with OSA and obesity. Analyses of very limited evidence suggested that upper airway surgery does not result in a clinically significant increase in risk of serious persistent adverse events and suggested that bariatric surgery may result in a clinically significant risk of iron malabsorption that may be managed with iron supplements. The task force provided a detailed summary of the evidence along with the quality of evidence, the balance of benefits and harms, patient values and preferences, and resource use considerations.

The influence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome on anthropometric parameters at 12 months after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Sci Rep 2021; 11:5781. [PMID: 33707630 PMCID: PMC7952692 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-85192-8] [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: 01/19/2020] [Accepted: 02/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the influence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) on the change in anthropometric parameters and body composition, in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This prospective study included patients undergoing LSG who had pre-operative polysomnography data and were also evaluated at six and 12 months after surgery. All patients included also had whole body composition analysis data before surgery and at six and 12 months after surgery. The results are presented in comparison between patients with and without OSAS. We included 73 patients in the analysis with a mean ± SD age and body mass index (BMI) of 40.3 ± 10.9 years and 45.4 ± 6.3 kg/m2, respectively. As compared to the baseline levels, at 6 months there was a significant decrease in BMI, weight, waist circumference, serum glucose and HbA1c. At 12 months there was no further decrease as compared to the 6 months levels, irrespective of OSAS status. We observed a significant decrease at 6 months in percentage of fat, in both types of patients. However, as compared to the 6 months levels, at 12 months the percent fat had a significant decrease only in patients without OSAS (− 4.6%, 95% CI − 7.6 to − 1.7%) and not in those with OSAS (− 2.2%, 95% CI − 4.5 to 0.2%). In our study, patients with OSAS showed a similar decrease in different anthropometric parameters as those without OSAS after LSG. However, at 12 months of follow-up there was a significant decrease in the percent fat only in patients without OSAS.

Abstract
To evaluate association between bariatric surgery and changes in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and sleep architecture was as well as to asses continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) effectiveness and compliance. We enrolled patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Polysomnography was performed in each patient preoperatively and 12 months after the procedure in a subgroup of patients diagnosed with OSA. STOP-BANG, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and Berlin questionnaire scores were obtained pre- and postoperatively. CPAP compliance data was recorded during follow-up hospitalization. Among 44 patients with median age of 49.5 years, predominantly women (68.2%) pre- and postoperative polysomnography was performed. We observed significant improvement in STOP-BANG (6.0 vs. 3.0, p < 0.001) and ESS (12.0 vs. 5.0, p < 0.001) scores, apnea–hypopnea index (44.9 vs. 29.2, p < 0.001), oxygen desaturation index (43.6 vs. 18.3, p < 0.001) and sleep architecture parameters. CPAP compliance was poor with a median percentage of days with CPAP use accounting to 49.3%. Bariatric surgery is associated with a significant decrease in the number of sleep-related respiratory disturbances, as well as improvement of sleep efficiency. Postoperative CPAP therapy compliance was poor despite low rate of OSA resolution. This study suggests that patients with OSA undergoing bariatric surgery require postoperative reassessment.

Abstract
Weight reduction continues to be first-line therapy in the treatment of hypertension (HTN). However, the long-term effect of bariatric malabsorptive surgical techniques such as Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) surgery in the management of hypertension (HTN) is less clear. African Americans (AA) are disproportionately affected by obesity and hypertension and have inconsistent outcomes after bariatric surgery (BS). Despite a plethora of bariatric literature, data about characteristics of a predominantly AA bariatric hypertensive cohort including hypertension in obese (HIO) are scarce and underreported. The aims of this study were, (1) to describe the preoperative clinical characteristics of HIO with respect to HTN status and age, and (2) to identify predictors of HTN resolution one year after RYGB surgery in an AA bariatric cohort enrolled at the Howard University Center for Wellness and Weight Loss Surgery (HUCWWS). In the review of 169 AA bariatric patients, the average BMI was 48.50 kg/m2 and the average age was 43.86 years. Obese hypertensive patients were older (46 years vs. 37.89 years; p < .0001); had higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM, 43.09% vs. 10.87%; p < .0001) and dyslipidemia (38.2% vs. 13.04%; p 0.002). Hypertensive AA who were taking ≥ 2 antihypertensive medications prior to RYGB were 18 times less likely to experience HTN resolution compared to hypertensive AA taking 0-1 medications, who showed full or partial response. Also, HIO was less likely to resolve after RYGB surgery in patients who needed ≥ 2 antihypertensive medications prior to surgical intervention.

Abstract
Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) is best known as an incretin hormone released by enteroendocrine K-cells in response to feeding and stimulates insulin release to regulate blood glucose and nutrient homeostasis. More recently GIP has been ascribed a positive role in lipid metabolism, bone strength, cardiovascular function and cognition. The present paper considers an emerging role of GIP and related gut hormones in fertility and especially polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Key evidence concerns restoration of fertility in women with gross obesity and PCOS following bariatric surgery. This is considered to reflect indirect effects mediated by alleviation of insulin resistance together with possible direct effects of surgically induced changes of GIP, GLP-1 and related peptide hormones on ovaries and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Further studies are required to determine inter-relationships between the hormones and cellular mechanisms involved but these observations suggest that GIP and other gut may provide a novel therapeutic approach for PCOS and other reproductive disorders.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Asthma is an important healthcare problem affecting millions in the United States. Additionally, a large proportion of patients with asthma suffer from obesity. These patients exhibit poor asthma control and reduced therapy response, increasing utilization of healthcare resources. Pulmonary symptoms improve after bariatric surgery (BS), and we hypothesized that asthma medication usage would decrease following BS. METHODS A retrospective data analysis was performed in adult patients from a single institution's database. Patients with obesity using at least one asthma medication pre-operatively who underwent BS were studied for up to 3-years post-operation. Poisson generalized linear mixed models for repeated measures were used to evaluate the effects of time and procedure type on the number of asthma medication. RESULTS Bariatric patients with at least one prescribed asthma medication (mean 1.4 ± 0.6) were included (n = 751). The mean age at time of operation was 46.8 ± 11.6 years, mean weight was 295.9 ± 57 lbs, and mean body mass index (BMI) was 49 ± 8.2 kg/m2; 87.7% were female, 33.4% had diabetes, 44.2% used gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) medication, and 64.4% used hypertension medication. The most common procedure was Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (79%), followed by sleeve gastrectomy (10.7%), adjustable gastric banding (8.1%), and duodenal switch (2.3%). The mean number of prescribed asthma medications among all procedures decreased by 27% at 30 days post-operation (p < 0.0001), 37% at 6 months (p < 0.0001), 44% at 1 year (p < 0.0001), and 46% at 3 years (p < 0.0001) after adjusting for risk factors. No significant differences in medication use over time between procedure types were observed. In the adjusted analysis, the mean number of asthma medications was 12% higher in patients using at least one GERD medication (p = 0.015) and 8% higher with 10-unit increase in pre-operative BMI (p = 0.006). CONCLUSION BS significantly decreases asthma medication use starting 30 days post-operation with a sustained reduction for up to 3 years.

The effect of surgical weight loss on obstructive sleep apnoea: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Sleep Med Rev 2018; 42:85-99. [PMID: 30001806 DOI: 10.1016/j.smrv.2018.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2018] [Revised: 04/22/2018] [Accepted: 06/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
This review aimed to examine the relationship between surgical weight loss and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) severity (i.e., apnoea-hypopnoea index [AHI]), and how this relationship is altered by the various respiratory events scoring (RES) criteria used to derive the AHI. A systematic search of the literature was performed up to December 2017. Before-and-after studies were considered due to a paucity of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) available to be reviewed in isolation. Primary outcomes included pre- and post-surgery AHI and body mass index (BMI). Secondary outcomes included sleep study type and RES criteria. Meta-analysis was undertaken where possible. Overall, surgical weight loss resulted in reduction of BMI and AHI, however, OSA persisted at follow-up in the majority of subjects. There was high between-study heterogeneity which was largely attributable to baseline AHI and duration of follow-up when analysed using meta-regression. There was insufficient data to evaluate the impact of different RES criteria on OSA severity. Therefore, more RCTs are needed to verify these findings given the high degree of heterogeneity and future studies are strongly encouraged to report the RES criteria used to enable fair and uniform comparisons of the impact of any intervention on OSA severity.

The impact of bariatric surgery on the resolution of obstructive sleep apnoea. BMC Res Notes 2018; 11:385.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity is associated with a high incidence of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Bariatric surgery is postulated to lead to OSA resolution, but there is inconclusive evidence on its efficacy. We used objective measurements to determine the rate of resolution or improvement of OSA in patients who had bariatric procedures in our unit. RESULTS Data was analysed on all patients with OSA who underwent bariatric procedures [laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (LSG)] between June 2012 and September 2016 in our unit. 47 patients (26.7%) were diagnosed with OSA. Mean age was 48.5 years. 63.8% were female. 43 required nocturnal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) support. Procedures were LRYGB (n = 26) and LSG (n = 21). Mean excess weight loss was 56.1%. Mean start apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) on CPAP was 6.4 events/hr and end AHI was 1.4 events/h. 14 patients (32.6%) had complete OSA resolution and 12 (27.9%) showed improvement in pressure support requirements. We demonstrated that 55.3% of patients had resolution or improvement in OSA following bariatric surgery. However, there was a high rate of non-attendance of follow-up appointments. Future efforts will involve analysis of the reasons for this to ensure more robust monitoring.
