AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study investigates how different sizes of intestinal loops in gastric bypass affect metabolic outcomes in obese diabetic patients, focusing on conditions related to metabolic syndrome.
  • - A total of 63 patients were analyzed across three groups with varying loop sizes, and results showed similar rates of hypertension and diabetes remission among the groups after 24 months.
  • - The findings suggest that the size of alimentary and biliopancreatic loops does not significantly impact the improvement of metabolic syndrome conditions in these patients.

Article Abstract

Background: There is no consensus on the ideal size of intestinal loops in gastric bypass of bariatric surgeries.

Aim: To evaluate the metabolic outcome of patients submitted to gastric bypass with alimentary and biliopancreatic loops of different sizes.

Methods: Was conducted a retrospective cohort study in diabetic obese patients (BMI≥35 kg/m2) with metabolic syndrome submitted to gastric bypass. The patients were divided into three groups according to the size of the intestinal loop: group 1, biliopancreatic limb 50 cm length and alimentary limb 100 cm length; group 2 , biliopancreatic limb 50 cm length and alimentary limb 150 cm length; and group 3, biliopancreatic limb 100 cm length and alimentary limb 150 cm length. The effect of gastric bypass with different sizes of intestinal loops in relation to the parameters that define metabolic syndrome was determined.

Results: Sixty-three patients were evaluated, and they had a mean age of 44.7±9.4 years. All were diabetics, with 62 (98.4%) being hypertensive and 51 (82.2%) dyslipidemic. The three groups were homogeneous in relation to the variables. In 24 months, there was a remission of systemic arterial hypertension in 65% of patients in group 1, 62.5% in group 2 and 68.4% in group 3. Remission of diabetes occurred in 85% of patients in group 1, 83% in group 2 and 84% in group 3. There was no statistical difference in %LEW between the groups, and waist measurements decreased in a homogeneous way in all groups. The size of loops also had no influence on the improvement in dyslipidemia.

Conclusion: Variation in size of intestinal loops does not appear to influence improvement in metabolic syndrome in this group of patients.

Background: Bariatric surgery has been shown to cause a negative impact on oral health, as reflected by postsurgical increase of caries-related dental interventions.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare dental intervention rates after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG).

Setting: Nationwide and register-based (Sweden).

Aims: To assess the rates and predictors of resolution and relapse of metabolic-dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in individuals undergoing sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB).

Methods: This observational prospective cohort study involved 1618 propensity score-matched participants (81.5% female) with concurrent MASLD and obesity who underwent SG or OAGB between 2013 and 2023.

Metabolic and bariatric surgeries (MBS), including Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) and Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG), have proven effective in promoting long-term diabetes remission among patients with type-2 diabetes (T2D). In this multicentre retrospective cohort study, we investigated the effectiveness of RYGB and SG in achieving diabetes remission, specifically among patients with T2D and vascular complications, while accounting for similar baseline diabetes severity. Although various scores predict diabetes remission after bariatric surgery, they do not consider diabetes-related vascular complications, which can influence outcomes even in patients with similar baseline T2D severity.

Background: Patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥50 have more obesity-associated medical problems and often require more aggressive surgical management. Few single-institution comparative studies have been published examining this specific population.

Objectives: The study aims to compare the weight loss and diabetes remission effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS).

Background: Metabolic bariatric surgeries are considered the finest and most appropriate treatment option for patients with severe obesity. Besides the surgical procedure, many factors appear to be associated with improved postoperative outcomes such as compliance to the postoperative diet and supplementation, regular physical activity, medical and nutritional follow-up, and modifications in dietary habits.

Objectives: The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of adherence to postoperative recommendations on anthropometric measurements and body composition and assess the percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and excess weight loss (%EWL) 3 months postoperative.
