Background: It has been suggested that shortening the length of the biliopancreatic limb (BPL) to 150 cm in one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) would reduce nutritional complication rates without impairing weight loss outcomes. The aim of this study is to compare patients who underwent OAGB with a 200-cm BPL (OAGB-200) to patients with OAGB with a 150-cm BPL (OAGB-150) in terms of weight loss and late morbidity.
Methods: This is a monocentric retrospective matched cohort study including patients with a body mass index between 35 and 50 kg/m who underwent an OAGB-150 or an OAGB-200.
Article Synopsis
- The landscape of bariatric surgery (BS) research is constantly evolving, with many new techniques developed since the first procedures were introduced.
- A systematic review identified 62 upcoming randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in BS, involving a total of 10,800 participants, with the most common surgeries being Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy.
- Most trials focus on outcomes related to obesity-related diseases, especially type 2 diabetes, weight loss, quality of life, and surgical complications, reflecting a growing interest in the broader impacts of BS.
Background: To date, no scale has been validated to assess bubbles associated with bowel preparation. This study aimed to develop and assess the reliability of a novel scale - the Colon Endoscopic Bubble Scale (CEBuS).
Methods: This was a multicenter, prospective, observational study with two online evaluation phases of 45 randomly distributed still colonoscopy images (15 per scale grade).
