Aim: To describe lipid oxidation during physical activity (PA) in overweight and obese patients using a real-time capillary glycerol sensor and to propose a personalized strategy to optimize lipolysis.
Methods: Healthy adult volunteers with a BMI >25 kg/m2 were recruited. All participants performed 27 sessions of 30-min PA covering all possible combinations of exercises (low, moderate, high intensities) and pre-exercise meals (high-carbohydrate, high-fat, or fasting) with 3 replicates.
Bariatric surgery (BS) is rarely performed on patients aged 70 and over, due to the fear of adverse effects, particularly related to sarcopenia. We examined the outcome of obese patients who underwent BS after the age of 69 in the French population. Operated subjects were matched with non-operated obese patients (n = 1307 in each group after matching).

- The study aimed to examine changes in lifestyle habits and weight during the COVID-19 lockdown among diabetes patients with overweight or obesity.
- Participants were surveyed through a web application, revealing that 69.5% of the 5280 surveyed were overweight or obese, with notable lifestyle changes like reduced smoking and healthier eating habits among these individuals.
- Findings showed that while 18.9% of overweight/obese participants lost weight during the lockdown, a larger portion (28.6%) gained weight, highlighting an opportunity for clinicians to support ongoing healthy changes in future lockdowns.
Background: Obesity is a risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and a relative contraindication for renal transplantation. Bariatric surgery (BS) is an option to address this issue but we hypothesize that severe CKD is associated with a loss of efficacy of BS which could justify recommending it at an earlier stage of the CKD.
Methods: A retrospective study (n = 101 patients) to test primarily for differences in weight loss at 6 and 12 months according to estimated glomerular filtration rate categories (eGFR < 30 including patients on dialysis, 30-60, 60-90, and ≥ 90 ml/min/1.
Background: Among the population of morbidly obese people, super-super-obese (SSO) individuals (body mass index >60 kg/m) present a treatment challenge for bariatric surgeons.
Objectives: To compare the long-term outcomes between laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and to evaluate the efficacy of SG as a stand-alone bariatric procedure for SSO patients.
Setting: University hospital, Paris, France.
