Background: Endometrial cancer is strongly associated with obesity, and weight reduction has been demonstrated to decrease risk and overall mortality. Bariatric surgery results in the most dramatic weight loss among morbidly obese individuals, and the impact of bariatric surgery on endometrial cancer requires further investigation.
Objective: To conduct a scoping review of the published literature of the effects of bariatric surgery on endometrial cancer, as risk reduction and potential adjunct to treatment.
Setting: University Hospital, Canada.
Methods: A comprehensive search of peer-reviewed literature was conducted by an expert searcher and librarian to retrieve relevant articles discussing aspects of endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia and bariatric surgery.
Results: After screening, 23 articles met inclusion for review. They were categorized into evidence for risk reduction of bariatric surgery on endometrial cancer, the impact of bariatric surgery on endometrial pathology, immunohistochemistry, metabolic profiles, and bariatric surgery as a potential adjunct to treatment in endometrial cancer.
Conclusion: There is ample evidence demonstrating a risk reduction in women with obesity (body mass index >30 kg/m) undergoing bariatric surgery for subsequent development of endometrial cancer. However, there is a paucity of data investigating its role as an adjunct for therapy. There is sufficient evidence to argue for the inclusion of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer as obesity-related conditions and the access to bariatric surgery should be broadened for affected individuals to reflect this.

Background: Obesity is a chronic disease associated with other associated medical problems, including atherogenic dyslipidemia. Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) has been shown to reduce long-term cardiovascular risk (CVR). Anti-ApoA-1 antibodies (AAA1) are independently associated with cardiovascular disease, which remains a major cause of death in individuals with obesity.

Background: The global burden of metabolic diseases is increasing, but estimates of their impact on primary liver cancer are uncertain. We aimed to assess the global burden of primary liver cancer attributable to metabolic risk factors, including high body mass index (BMI) and high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels, between 1990 and 2021.
Methods: The total number and age-standardized rates of deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) from primary liver cancer attributable to each metabolic risk factor were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease Study 1990-2021.

Bariatric surgery may have an effect on myocardial mechanics in individuals with obesity and diabetes. In this study, two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography was applied to evaluate the changes of left ventricular myocardial mechanics in individuals with obesity and diabetes before and after bariatric surgery. A total of 58 individuals with obesity were divided into an obesity-only group (30 patients) and an obesity + diabetes group (28 patients).

As the prevalence of obesity has reached epidemic proportions, its prevalence has also increased among adults living with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Unlike the pathophysiologic relationship between obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, the relationship between obesity and type 1 diabetes mellitus, and management of obesity in the setting of type 1 diabetes mellitus, have not been well reviewed. In this article, we discuss the comprehensive management of obesity in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus, focusing on medical nutrition therapy and adjunct therapies such as weight loss-promoting medications and metabolic/bariatric surgery.
