Obesity affects over 600,000 people in Poland, and bariatric surgery is a vital part of the multidisciplinary approach to treatment. To improve outcomes, Poland's public health institutions implemented the KOS-BAR programme, a multicentre nationwide pilot initiative that includes psychiatric evaluations of patients. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of mental disorders, verify diagnoses, and evaluate pharmacotherapy efficacy for patients under psychiatric treatment and selected for bariatric surgery. Of the 180 patients evaluated, 40% had a history of mental disorders, with depressive and eating disorders being the most common diagnoses. Patients selected for revision surgery had a higher incidence of depressive and compulsive eating disorders. Psychiatric support can improve patient cooperation and optimize long-term outcomes after bariatric surgery. A more complete evaluation of the psychological profile and depressive disorder's impact on bariatric treatment outcomes will be the next step for this group of patients.

Background: Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, primarily due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, leads to impaired cortisol and aldosterone production and excess adrenal androgens. Lifelong glucocorticoid therapy is required, often necessitating supraphysiological doses in youth to manage androgen excess and growth acceleration. These patients experience higher obesity rates, hypertension, and glucose metabolism issues, complicating long-term health management.

Background: Earlier evidence indicated that metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) may adversely affect neonatal outcomes among patients conceiving soon after MBS, but recent studies demonstrated conflicting results, especially for new surgical techniques.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of MBS types and surgery to birth interval on maternal, birth, and nonbirth outcomes in women with severe obesity.
Setting: New York State's all-payer hospital discharge database (2008-2019).
Background: Transumbilical single-port sleeve gastrectomy (SPSG) is a minimally invasive bariatric surgery that offers cosmetic benefits.
