Purpose: Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is a widely used and effective treatment for patients with obesity and comorbid metabolic abnormalities. No specialized tool is available to predict metabolic syndrome (MS) remission after SG. We presented a nomogram that evaluated the probability of MS remission in obese patients 1 year after SG.

We aimed at establishing a machine learning model to evaluate the risk of newly onset IDA in premenopausal women 12 months after sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Premenopausal women with complete clinical records and undergoing SG were enrolled in this retrospective study.

Objectives: This study aimed to examine the contribution of glycemic variability (GV) to the risk of hypoglycemia, and the suitability of time in range (TIR), an emerging glycemic marker, to define diabetes remission after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).
Setting: A single referral center in China.
Purpose: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is widely used as an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with obesity; long-term (> 5 years) diabetes remission (DR) rates have been less frequently reported. To date, there is no validated model to guide procedure selection based on long-term glucose control in patients with T2D. The purpose of this study is to establish a new tool for predicting long-term DR with a nomogram.

We aimed to evaluate the reliability of two clinically common WL indications including percentage of total WL (%TWL) and percentage of excess WL (%EWL) through comparing their performances in predicting metabolic syndrome (MetS) remission 1 year after bariatric surgery.
Methods: A total of 430 individuals with obesity who underwent bariatric surgery were enrolled.
Both RASSF2A (Ras-associated family 2A) and p300 are implicated in apoptosis. However, little is known about the interrelationship between these two proteins in induction of apoptosis. Here we show that p300 was able to induce late apoptosis through up-regulation of RASSF2A in human gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 (p53-mutant).
