Vegetarianism and weight status: What are the differences in eating styles, impulsivity, and emotional competences? A preliminary study.

Recent studies suggest that vegetarian diets may be recommended to promote weight loss in individuals living with obesity. However, limited studies have examined psychological factors (e.g.

Seventy years of bariatric surgery: A systematic mapping review of randomized controlled trials.

While research publications on bariatric surgery (BS) have grown significantly over the past decade, there is no mapping of the existing body of evidence on this field of research. We performed a systematic review followed by a mapping of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in BS for people with obesity. From January 2020 to December 2020, we performed a systematic review of RCTs evaluating BS, versus another surgical procedure, or versus a medical control group, through a search of Embase and PubMed.

Spin occurs in bariatric surgery randomized controlled trials with a statistically nonsignificant primary outcome: A systematic review.

Objectives: To systematically identify the strategy and frequency of spin in reports of bariatric surgery randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with statistically nonsignificant primary endpoint.

Study Design And Setting: The use of specific reporting strategies to highlight the beneficial effect of an experimental treatment can affect the reader interpretation of trial results, particularly when the primary endpoint is not statistically significant. A literature search was performed to identify RCTs publications assessing the impact of bariatric surgery on obesity-related comorbidities published over the past 10 years (from January 2020 till December 2020) in MEDLINE and EMBASE.

Delayed retroperitoneal liposarcoma diagnosis and management in a patient with massive obesity.

People suffering from extreme obesity may be exposed to delayed diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A 37-year-old woman (weight = 245 kg, body mass index (BMI) = 79 kg/m), presented a sepsis associated with nonspecific abdominal pain for 4 months. After several unsuccessful attempts due to her weight and a large waist circumference, abdominal CT scan was finally successfully performed and showed a large retroperitoneal mass.

Prospective multicentre randomised trial comparing the efficacy and safety of single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) versus Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB): SADISLEEVE study protocol.

Introduction: Despite the non-negligible weight loss failure rate at midterm, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) remains the reference procedure in the treatment of morbid obesity with metabolic comorbidities. A recently emerged procedure, the single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S), could be more effective on weight loss with similar morbidity and lower weight loss failure rate than RYGB. We propose the first randomised, open, multicentre superiority trial comparing the SADI-S to RYGB (SADISLEEVE).

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Management of Post-Gastric Bypass Chronic Diarrhea: a Systematic Review.

There is a lack of recommendation regarding exploration and treatment of chronic diarrhea following gastric bypass, while it is a common side effect of this surgery. The electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched until July 2018. Of the 553 articles identified, 35 articles were included.

[Nutritional Management of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)].

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is strongly associated with obesity and insulin resistance. There is currently no pharmacological treatment validated in steatosis. The combination of weight loss and adequate physical activity can improve liver steatosis.

Changes in total sperm count after gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy: the BARIASPERM prospective study.

Background: The massive weight loss induced by bariatric surgery is associated with major benefits, but the effect on semen variables is still uncertain.

Objectives: To explore semen modifications with gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy.

Setting: Five French University Hospitals.

Management of Hypothalamic Obesity during Transition from Childhood to Adulthood.

Hypothalamic obesity (HO) is a rare and serious disease of various origins: tumor, traumatism, radiotherapy, vascular, genetic, or even psychotropic drug use. HO usually begins in childhood with eating disorders and progresses with an aggregate of severe comorbidities. Transition from pediatric to adult health care is a critical period to assure weight stability and a good management of comorbidities.

Associations of lifetime traumatic experience with dysfunctional eating patterns and postsurgery weight loss in adults with obesity: A retrospective study.

This study aimed to examine the associations of lifetime traumatic experience with presurgery and postsurgery eating pathology and postoperative weight loss in a sample of adult bariatric surgery patients using electronic medical record (EMR) data. Presurgery lifetime exposure to traumatic event, presurgery and postsurgery dysfunctional eating patterns, and post-operative total and excess weight losses were extracted from electronic medical records of 200 adult bariatric surgery patients in 2013 and 2014. Logistic regression analyses were conducted.

A 78-Year-Old Man With Historical Goiter.

The purpose of this paper is to provide description of the natural evolution of an initially operable goitre into unmesurable form in a context of deeply unknown psychiatric disorders initially unknown.

[Difficulties of follow-up of patients after bariatric surgery].

Difficulties of follow-up of patients after bariatric surgery. Since several years, there are existing guidelines for the follow- up of patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Despite this, many patients who have undergone bariatric surgery do not have the recommended follow-up.

The measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) before and 6 months after bariatric surgery: A pilot study.

Introduction: Over the last few decades, the prevalence of obesity has increased dramatically. This increase has been mirrored by a rise in the risk of a number of health conditions, including hypertension, diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Although the weight loss following bariatric surgery has been shown to relieve the severity of diabetes and reduce hypertension, the effect on renal function has been less extensively evaluated.

Postprandial GLP-1 Secretion After Bariatric Surgery in Three Cases of Severe Obesity Related to Craniopharyngiomas.

Craniopharyngiomas are rare cerebral tumors associated with severe obesity after hypothalamic surgery. A meta-analysis showed significant weight loss at 1 year after bariatric surgery in these patients even though more modest than in common causes of obesity. We hypothesized that this discrepancy could be partly explained by differences in GLP-1 secretion after surgery since patients with craniopharyngioma present a significantly higher degree of insulin resistance and hyperinsulinism than common obese control.

Bariatric Surgery in Obese Patients with Type 1 Diabetes: Effects on Weight Loss and Metabolic Control.

Background: Type 1 diabetes patients, although typically lean, experience an increased prevalence of obesity, and bariatric surgery is considered in severe cases. Bariatric surgery in such patients leads to significant weight loss and decreased insulin requirements; however, effects on glycemic control remain discussed. We assessed, in obese patients with type 1 diabetes, the effects of bariatric surgery upon body weight, body composition, and glycemic control, including the occurrence of hypoglycemic events.

Midterm outcomes of gastric bypass for elderly (aged ≥ 60 yr) patients: a comparative study.

Background: Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is feasible for patients aged 60 years and older and is associated with a favorable early weight loss. However, data with longer follow-up in this age group are scarce. The present study compared weight loss and changes in co-morbidities 3 years after LRYGB between older patients (OP; ≥ 60 yr) and younger patients (YP; <60 yr).

Similar postoperative safety between primary and revisional gastric bypass for failed gastric banding.

Importance: Adjustable gastric bands are widely used because of low postoperative morbidity, but their long-term results are poor, often leading to revisional surgery.

Objective: To assess the safety of revisional procedures by comparing the 30-day outcomes of primary gastric bypass vs revisions following failed adjustable gastric banding.

Design, Setting, And Participants: Retrospective review using logistic regression models to compute odds ratios (95% CIs) across preoperative body mass index (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) quartiles to evaluate the risk for major adverse outcomes at 30 days (death, venous thromboembolism, reinterventions, and failure to be discharged).

Clinical review: Bariatric surgery following treatment for craniopharyngioma: a systematic review and individual-level data meta-analysis.

Objectives: Craniopharyngiomas are rare low-grade tumors located in the hypothalamic and/or pituitary region. Hypothalamic involvement and treatment resulting in hypothalamic damage are known to lead to development of "hypothalamic obesity" (HyOb) in 50% of cases. The management of HyOb, associated with eating disorders and rapid comorbidities, is an important issue.
