Comparative Analysis of Mortality Rates among Morbidly Obese Individuals: A Study of Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery, Nonsurgical Morbidly Obese Individuals, and the General Population.

Introduction: Mortality decreases following bariatric surgery. We explored the extent of the reduction and whether or not it reaches the general population level in a large cohort of patients with obesity. This study aimed to compare all-cause mortality between patients with obesity who undergo bariatric surgery and those who do not, with the general Iranian population during the same period.

Weight Reduction Percentile Charts: 2-Year Follow-up Results of OAGB and RYGB Post Bariatric Surgery.

Purpose: Using a single percentile chart provides us with high standards for the evaluation and accurate investigation of sufficient weight loss after bariatric surgery, counseling, and treating patients in an evidence-based way. Creating percentile charts of weight loss for gastric bypass is the aim of this study.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study was based on data from patients who underwent RYGB or OAGB from February 2008 to February 2020.

Type 2 diabetes remission after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB): results of the longitudinal assessment of bariatric surgery study.

Background: Several studies on various bariatric surgeries involving patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) showed an overall rate of remission of hyperglycemia. However, there is little known about predictive factors on remission after different types of surgeries. The aim of this study was to identify the T2DM remission rate and to determine the effects of preoperative factors characteristics of remission of type 2 diabetes in Iran.

A Representative Percentile Chart for Prediction of Weight Loss Trend after Sleeve Gastrectomy.

Introduction: It could be valuable for surgeons and patients to use one chart in different groups and evaluate weight loss during the post-surgery period.

Methods: This retrospective study used the Iran National Obesity Surgery Database. Patients with clinically severe obesity aged 18-70 undergoing sleeve gastrectomy participated in this study.

Weight loss after one-anastomosis/mini-gastric bypass - The impact of biliopancreatic limb: A retrospective cohort study.

Background: One-anastomosis/mini-gastric bypass (OAGB/MGB), as a popular bariatric surgery method, has many advantages; however, the biliopancreatic limb length (BPL) in this surgery is under debate. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of BPL on weight-loss outcome after OAGB/MGB.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed on 653 patients who underwent OAGB/MGB with adjusted BPL based on preoperative body mass index (BMI) and patient's age, between 2010 and 2015 with 12-month follow-ups.

Severe hypoalbuminemia and steatohepatitis leading to death in a young vegetarian female, 8 months after mini gastric bypass: A case report.

Background: Hypoalbuminemia is an important complication after Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB) and is more frequent in vegetarians, diabetic nephropathy, and alcoholic and liver disease patients. The patients must be followed in regular intervals and serum albumin must be checked in every visit after MGB. Hypoalbuminemia must be prevented by good protein regimes.
