Effect of Bariatric Surgery on the Cardiovascular System in Obese Cases with Pulmonary Hypertension.

Introduction And Aim: Recently, the incidence of obesity has been rising exponentially. Clinical studies have demonstrated that different subtypes of pulmonary hypertension (PH) are linked to obesity. The current work mainly aims to assess the impact of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on PH in a cohort of obese cases.

Long-term effects of one-anastomosis gastric bypass on liver histopathology in NAFLD cases: a prospective study.

Purpose: Weight reduction can effectively improve nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is a constant companion of severe obesity. This study aimed to determine the effect of one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) on pathological liver changes in severely obese cases with NAFLD.

Methods: The present prospective research comprised 67 subjects with morbid obesity scheduled for OAGB during the period from February 2015 to August 2018.
