AI Article Synopsis

  • The field of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is rapidly evolving, with ongoing improvements in techniques and outcomes applicable to diverse patient profiles, including different ages, genders, and health conditions.
  • A comprehensive review of existing literature suggests that MBS is a safe and effective treatment for obesity and related health issues, with low rates of mortality (0.03-0.2%) and complications (0.4-1%).
  • The future of MBS is focused on innovation, multidisciplinary approaches, and thorough preoperative evaluations to enhance surgical success and patient satisfaction.

Article Abstract

Background: The field of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is currently an expanding surgical field with constant refinements in techniques, outcomes, indications, and objectives. MBS has been effectively applied across diverse patient demographics, including varying ages, genders, body mass indexes, and comorbidity statuses.

Methods: We performed a comprehensive literature review of published retrospective cohort studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and literature reviews from inception to 2024, reporting outcomes of MBS using databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Springer Link.

Results: MBS is a safe and efficient therapeutic option for patients with obesity and associated medical conditions (mortality rate 0.03-0.2%; complication rates 0.4-1%). The favorable safety profile of MBS in the short-, mid-, and long-term offers the potential to treat patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, immunosuppression, chronic anticoagulation, neoplastic disease, and end-organ failure without increased morbidity and mortality.

Conclusions: In conclusion, the future of MBS lies in the ongoing innovation and adapted therapeutic strategies along with the integration of a variety of other techniques for managing obesity. Careful preoperative assessments, coupled with a multidisciplinary approach, remain essential to ensure optimal surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction after MBS.

Purpose Of Review: Eating behaviour-focused interventions are essential for improving health and weight-related outcomes in patients undergoing metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS). This work aims to examine the content of eating behaviour-focused weight management interventions adjunct to MBS in terms of the type and quantity of behaviour change techniques (BCTs). A literature search retrieved randomised controlled and parallel group trials up to March 2024.

Purpose Of Review: To highlight recent research on antidepressant use and weight change and explore best clinical practices for reducing weight gain and obesity risk in individuals with depression.

Recent Findings: Research on antidepressant use and weight gain suggests that genetic and biological factors including metabolizer phenotypes and inflammation can help to predict an individual's threshold for weight change among specific agents. For individuals with increased susceptibility to metabolic complications, medications including bupropion, fluoxetine, and newer agents (e.

Background: Prescription opioids are responsible for a significant proportion of opioid-related deaths in the United States. Approximately 6% of opioid-naïve patients who receive opioid prescriptions after surgery become chronic opioid users. However, chronic opioid use after bariatric surgery may be twice as common.

Background And Aims: Obesity is associated with a higher risk of severe diseases such as atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Polyunsaturated fatty acids, of the omega-3 family (n-3 PUFA), have been shown to reduce adipose tissue inflammation in obesity, as well as to have lipid-lowering effects and improve insulin sensitivity. However, direct effects on liver transcriptome in humans have not been described.
