Bilateral Dolichoarteriopathies of the Internal Carotid Artery: Surgical Treatment and Results.

The approach to surgical treatment of symptomatic bilateral dolichoarteriopathies of the internal carotid artery (DICA) remains an unresolved problem today. The aim of this article is to compare the methods of reconstruction of the stage-by-stage surgical treatment of bilateral DICA, depending on the type of deformity. The study included 30 patients with clinical manifestations of cerebrovascular insufficiency (CVI), who were found to have hemodynamically significant bilateral DICA.

A laparoscopic one anastomosis gastric bypass with wrapping versus nonwrapping fundus of the excluded part of the stomach to treat obese patients (FundoRingOAGB trial): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Laparoscopic one anastomosis gastric bypass (LOAGB) is a simple variation of gastric bypass and has gained worldwide popularity with clinical outcomes similar to laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) for weight loss and management of comorbidities. However, biliary reflux to the esophagus negates the benefits of LOAGB. In addition, weight gain after LOAGB and after LRYGB is a major problem in bariatric surgery.

Stapleless vs Stapled Gastric Bypass vs Hypocaloric Diet: a Three-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial of Body Mass Evolution with Secondary Outcomes for Telomere Length and Metabolic Syndrome Changes.

Background: Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) reduce life expectancy and are challenging to resolve. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) of patients with obesity and MetS undergoing surgical vs nonsurgical treatment compared changes in BMI, and secondarily, telomere length (as a biomarker of life expectancy) and changes in MetS components (insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hypertension).

Methods: Study design was a single-center, prospective, three-arm RCT.

Gastroduodenal Bleeding and Perforation in Diabetic Patients with Metabolic Syndrome (The Results of a 15-Year Observation of City Residents with Intensive Urbanization).

Background: The prevalence of bleeding and perforation against the diabetes mellitus, obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) is studied not sufficiently.

Methods: The period of collecting the material was 15 years (2003-2017). The observation analysis was conducted for the patients at polyclinics observations, by the doctors of first-aid, in the surgical departments of the Astana City, Kazakhstan.
