Background/aim: Obesity is associated with increased incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and it has been suggested that GERD symptoms may be improved by weight reduction. However, various patterns of bariatric surgery may affect symptoms of GERD due to the changed anatomy of stomach and esophagus. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to analyze the effect of bariatric surgery on GERD.
Materials And Methods: A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library from January 2005 to January 2019, combining the words obesity, gastroesophageal reflux with different types of bariatric surgery and weight loss. The methodological quality of randomized controlled trials and non-randomized controlled trials published in English and have at least 1-year follow-up data were included and assessed by Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing risk bias and Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Only clinical trials were included, and case series or case reports were excluded.
Results: We anticipate that our review will provide the exact estimates of the burden and phenotype of GERD among patients that have undergone bariatric surgery.
Conclusion: GERD may improve in obese patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG); however, the most favorable effect is likely to be found after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.

Traditionally, liver retraction for laparoscopic gastrectomy is done manual methods, such as the placement of retractors through the accessory ports and using a Nathanson retractor. However, these techniques often posed issues including extra abdominal incisions, risk of liver injury or ischaemia, and the potential for compromised visualization. Over the years, the development of innovative liver retraction techniques has significantly improved the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic gastrectomy and similar other hiatal procedures.

It is crucial to understand the glucose control within our bodies. Bariatric/metabolic surgeries, including laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), provide an avenue for exploring the potential key factors involved in maintaining glucose homeostasis since these surgeries have shown promising results in improving glycemic control among patients with severe type 2 diabetes (T2D). For the first time, a markedly altered population of serum proteins in patients after LSG was discovered and analyzed through proteomics.

Background: Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among gynaecological cancers. The identification of the fallopian tube epithelium as the origin of most ovarian cancers introduces a novel prevention strategy by removing the fallopian tubes during an already indicated abdominal surgery for another reason, also known as an opportunistic salpingectomy. This preventive opportunity is evidence based, recommended and established at the time of gynaecologic surgery in many countries worldwide.

Background: Bariatric surgery is the most long-term effective treatment option for severe obesity. The role of gut microbiome (GM) in either the development of obesity or in response to obesity management strategies has been a matter of debate. This study aims to compare the impact of two of the most popular procedures, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (GB), on metabolic syndrome parameters and gut bacterial microbiome and in systemic immuno-inflammatory response.

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.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 104 individuals (91.
