Introduction: bariatric surgery does not benefit all patients. Identifying severely obese patients who will succeed after bariatric surgery remains a challenge for the transdiciplinary team. The objective of this retrospective study was to analyze preoperative dietary factors that could predict a successful weight loss after bariatric surgery.
Methods: the retrospective study included patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery as a procedure for severe obesity (n = 84). Patient demographics, comorbidities, dietary factors, and weight loss results were extracted from the electronic medical record.
Results: type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) was associated with suboptimal weight loss after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.
Conclusions: although bariatric surgery continues being the most effective treatment for patients with severe obesity, developing strategies to improve and maintain weight loss, especially in patients with DM2, is fundamental. Assessing the dietary characteristics of candidates for bariatric surgery is crucial.

Background And Aim: Managing obesity requires a comprehensive approach that involves therapeutic lifestyle changes, medications, or metabolic surgery. Many patients seek health information from online sources and artificial intelligence models like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot before consulting health professionals. This study aims to evaluate the appropriateness of the responses of Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot to questions on pharmacologic and surgical management of obesity and assess for bias in their responses to either the ADA or AACE guidelines.

This study investigates the effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on fibrotic MASH, assessed using the fibrotic NASH index (FNI) and the non-invasive NASH detection score (NI-NASH-DS), as well as provides further data on the diagnostic accuracy of both scores.

The combined impact of concurrent primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) on pregnancy outcomes remains underreported. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 115 pregnant patients diagnosed with pSS and delivering at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2009 to July 2023. The effects of AITD on maternal and neonatal outcomes were examined and compared to a control group without AITD.

Background And Aims: Sarcopenia, defined as a muscle mass loss and function, is increasingly recognized in pediatric populations, particularly in childhood obesity. Therefore, it is necessary to have measurements that can distinguish between muscle and fat mass. Methods of body composition such as Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) provide accurate assessments of body composition, but they are resource-intensive and impractical for routine monitoring in clinical or community settings.

Environmental pollution from packaging, has led to a need for sustainable alternatives. This study investigates the biodegradation of polylactic acid (PLA) by Amycolatopsis orientalis and Amycolatopsis thailandensis after thermal and thermal-alkaline pretreatments. The biodegradation was assessed based on weight loss, CO evolution, carbon balance analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
