BACKGROUND: One anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) has gained prominence in the search for better results in bariatric surgery. However, its efficacy and safety compared to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) remain ill-defined.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy and safety of OAGB relative to RYGB and SG in the treatment of obesity.
METHODS: We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Lilacs, and Google Scholar databases for randomized controlled trials comparing OAGB with RYGB or SG in the surgical approach to obesity. We pooled outcomes for body mass index, percentage of excess weight loss, type-2 diabetes mellitus remission, complications, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Statistical analyses were performed with R software (version 4.2.3).
RESULTS: Data on 854 patients were extracted from 11 randomized controlled trials, of which 422 (49.4%) were submitted to OAGB with mean follow-up ranging from six months to five years. The meta-analysis revealed a significantly higher percentage of excess weight loss at 1-year follow-up and a significantly lower body mass index at 5-year follow-up in OAGB patients. Conversely, rates of type-2 diabetes mellitus remission, complications, and gastroesophageal reflux disease were not significantly different between groups. The overall quality of evidence was considered very low.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results corroborate the comparable efficacy of OAGB in relation to RYGB and SG in the treatment of obesity, maintaining no significant differences in type-2 diabetes mellitus remission, complications, and gastroesophageal reflux disease rates.

BACKGROUND: Improvements in bariatric surgery outcomes have prompted policy initiatives that explore shifting bariatric surgery toward outpatient procedures. While the safety of early discharge after primary laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) has been reported, its safety for revisional LRYGB remains uncertain. Our study aimed to investigate the safety and patient factors associated with early discharge in patients undergoing revisional LRYGB compared with primary LRYGB.
METHODS: We identified adult patients who underwent primary and revisional LRYGB from 2020 to 2022 in the MBSAQIP database. Patients discharged early, i.e., same-day discharge (SDD) and next-day discharge (NDD) were compared to inpatients. Outcomes included 30-day complications (minor = Clavien-Dindo 1-2; major = Clavien-Dindo 3-4), mortality, readmissions, and reoperations. Multivariable logistic regression models adjusting for patient demographics, comorbidities, and operative time were fitted to assess the study outcomes.
RESULTS: SDD rate was similar after primary (3,422/137,406; 2.5%) and revisional LRYGB (781/32,721; 2.4%), while NDD rate was higher in primary LRYGB (59.8% vs 54.7%, respectively; p < 0.001). SDD patients had lower odds of major complications compared to inpatients following primary (2% vs 7%, aOR: 0.30, 95%CI 0.24-0.38) and revisional LRYGB (3.7% vs 9.3%, aOR: 0.43, 95%CI 0.29-0.62, respectively). NDD patients had similarly lower odds of morbidity outcomes. ASA Classification IV/V was associated with lower odds of SDD compared to Class I/II (Primary: 0.9% vs. 3%, aOR: 0.61, 95% CI 0.48-0.78; Revisions: 0.9% vs. 3%, aOR: 0.24, 95%CI 0.10-0.55).
CONCLUSIONS: Early discharge after revisional LRYGB, particularly after an overnight stay, can be accomplished safely in carefully selected patients. However, SDD rates remain low limiting its safety assessment. Further, almost half of the patients stay more than 48 h in the hospital suggesting that policy initiatives toward outpatient management after bariatric surgery may be inappropriate for this patient population.

BACKGROUND: Tailoring the biliopancreatic limb length in one anastomosis gastric bypass is proposed as beneficial in retrospective studies, yet randomized trials are lacking. The aim of this double-blind, single-centre RCT was to ascertain whether tailoring biliopancreatic limb length based on total small bowel length (TSBL) results in superior outcomes after one anastomosis gastric bypass compared with a fixed 150 cm biliopancreatic limb length.
METHODS: Eligible patients, meeting International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) criteria for metabolic bariatric surgery, scheduled for primary one anastomosis gastric bypass surgery, and willing to be randomized, underwent TSBL measurement during surgery. When TSBL measurement was feasible, patients were randomly assigned to a standard 150 cm biliopancreatic limb length or a tailored biliopancreatic limb based on TSBL: TSBL less than 500 cm, biliopancreatic limb 150 cm; TSBL 500-700 cm, biliopancreatic limb 180 cm; and TSBL greater than 700 cm, biliopancreatic limb 210 cm. The primary outcome was percentage total weight loss at 5 years.
RESULTS: Between September 2020 and August 2022, 212 patients were randomized into the standard biliopancreatic limb group (105 patients) or the tailored biliopancreatic limb group (107 patients). The mean(s.d.) TSBL was 657(128) cm (range 295-1020 cm). In the tailored group, 150, 180, and 210 cm biliopancreatic limb lengths were applied to 8.4%, 53.3%, and 38.3% of patients respectively. The mean(s.d.) 1-year percentage total weight loss was 32.8(6.9)% in the standard group and 33.1(6.2)% in the tailored group (P = 0.787). Nutritional deficiencies and short-term complications showed no significant differences.
CONCLUSIONS: Tailoring biliopancreatic limb length based on TSBL is safe and feasible. One year after surgery, it is not superior to a standard biliopancreatic limb length of 150 cm in terms of percentage total weight loss.

BACKGROUND: Obesity in pregnancy is linked to adverse clinical outcomes such as gestational diabetes. Recently, a risk score calculated by different ceramide concentrations was recognized as a new way to investigate cardiovascular risk. The aim was to analyze if the ceramide risk score and cardiometabolic risk vary between normal-weight, obese, and females with prior Roux-en-Y bypass surgery (RYGB) during pregnancy.
METHODS: Three cohorts were investigated: first, 25 pregnant females with a history of RYGB; second, 19 with preconception BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2; and third, 19 normal-weight (preconception BMI < 25 kg/m2). Around the 24th to 28th weeks of gestation routine laboratory assessments, 3 h 75 g oral and intravenous glucose tolerance tests were carried out. The correlation of ceramide risk scores and ceramide ratios (Cer(d18:1/18:0)/Cer(d18:1/16:0)) with metabolic parameters was analyzed via Pearson correlation. The cohorts were compared via ANOVA and unpaired t-tests.
RESULTS: The RYGB cohort had lower ceramide risk scores and ratios compared to obese pregnant females (7.42 vs. 9.34, p = 0.025; 0.33 vs. 0.47, p < 0.001). Ceramide risk score and ratio were found to correlate negatively with insulin sensitivity (measured with the Matsuda (r = -0.376, p = 0.031; r = -0.455, p = 0.008) and calculated sensitivity index (r = -0.358, p = 0.044; r = -0.621, p < 0.001) in females without RYGB. The ceramide risk score correlated positively with body fat in RYGB females (r = 0.650, p = 0.012).
CONCLUSIONS: We found that females after RYGB have lower ceramide risk scores and ceramide ratios compared to obese pregnant females, possibly indicating lower metabolic risk.

Given the health benefits of carotenoids, it is crucial to evaluate their levels in patients undergoing malabsorptive procedures like one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). This study aimed to assess serum carotenoid levels before and 6 months following OAGB. Prospectively collected data from patients who underwent primary OAGB were analyzed. Data included anthropometrics, dietary intake assessments, and biochemical tests. Serum samples were analyzed for lipid profile and serum carotenoids, including lutein, zeaxanthin, α-carotene, β-carotene, phytofluene, ζ-carotene, and lycopene. Data from 27 patients (median age 47.0 years and 55.6% female) were available before and 6 months post-OAGB. The median pre-surgical BMI was 39.5 kg/m2, and the median excess weight loss at 6 months post-surgery was 63.9%. Significant decreases in all carotenoid levels were observed over time (p < 0.001 for all). A median relative decline of 65.1% in absolute total carotenoid levels and 12.7% in total cholesterol levels were found. No associations were observed between changes in clinical outcomes and carotenoid levels during the study period. This study reveals significant decreases in carotenoid levels within the first 6 months following OAGB. Nutritional intervention studies are needed to explore how incorporating carotenoid-rich foods affects post-surgery carotenoid levels and clinical outcomes.

Background and Objectives: The prevalence of GERD is increasing among individuals with obesity, and RYGB is an effective procedure to control GERD and obesity. However, some patients continue to have GERD after RYGB. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and the risk factors for GERD after RYGB. Material and Methods: This prospective study included 180 RYGB patients followed for an average of 12.2 (0.6) years. In total, 126 (70%) patients agreed to participate and provided data on their weight, GERD symptoms, and filled the GERD-HRQL, TFEQ-18, and GSRS questionnaires. Results: The average age before surgery was 42.7 (10.5) years, and BMI was 45.2 (6.4) kg/m2. Moreover, 128 (71.1%) were females, and preoperative GERD was diagnosed in 74 (41.1%) patients. At the 12-year follow-up, the mean %EBMIL and %TWL was 60.37 and 25.73, respectively. The median %WR was 18.0 (39.0). Postoperative GERD was present in 30 (23.8%) patients, of whom 12 (40%) continued to have GERD symptoms and 18 (60%) developed de novo GERD. The GERD-HRQL score significantly decreased from 3.0 (9.0) at baseline to 2.0 (5.0) (p = 0.028) at 12 years. GSRS Diarrhea and Indigestion scores increased significantly from 1.33 (0.67) to 1.5 (2.42) (p < 0.001) and from 2.0 (1.25) to 2.25 (1.25) (p < 0.001), respectively. No change in the cognitive restraint score was observed. Uncontrolled eating and emotional eating scores decreased from 51.85 (22.22) to 40.74 (33.33) (p < 0.001) and from 44.44 (44.44) to 33.33 (22.22) (p < 0.001), respectively. In the multivariate analysis, %WR > 11 (OR = 3.22, p = 0.029) and GSRS Diarrhea score (OR = 3.21, p = 0.027) were significant predictors of GERD 12 years after RYGB. Conclusions: RYGB was an effective procedure to control GERD; however, 23.8% had persistent or de novo GERD after 12 years. The independent risk factors associated with GERD after RYGB were weight regain and GSRS Diarrhea score.

UNASSIGNED: Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS) is a rare condition, for which laparoscopic surgery was successfully performed safely and with long-term efficacy.
UNASSIGNED: This single center retrospective clinical study comprised 66 patients with SMAS, surgically treated between January 2010 and January 2020, who were allocated to three different surgical groups according to their medical history and symptoms (Laparoscopic duodenojejunostomy, n = 35; Gastrojejunostomy, n = 16; Duodenojejunostomy plus gastrojejunostomy, n = 15). Patient demographics, surgical data and postoperative outcomes were retrieved from the medical records.
UNASSIGNED: All operations were successfully completed laparoscopically, and with a median follow-up of 65 months, the overall symptom score was significantly reduced from 32 to 8 (p < 0.0001) and the BMI was increased from 17.2 kg/m2 to 21.8 kg/m2 (p < 0.0001).
UNASSIGNED: When conservative measures failed in the treatment of SMAS, laparoscopic surgery proved to be a safe and effective method. The specific surgical technique was selected according to the history and symptoms of each individual patient. To our knowledge, this study represents the largest number of laparoscopic procedures at a single center for the treatment of superior mesenteric artery syndrome.

Dumping syndrome (DS) is a collection of gastrointestinal (GI) and vasomotor symptoms arising postprandially because of prompt gastric emptying. This can develop due to any changes in gastric anatomy or innervation during esophageal, gastric, or bariatric surgery. Due to the increase in the number of bariatric operations and innovative surgeries performed internationally, bariatric surgery has emerged as the most common cause of this disease entity. 25-50% of all gastric surgery patients experience dumping symptoms after their procedures. Patients who have had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are at an extremely high risk (up to 40%) of developing dumping syndrome postoperatively. The goal of this review is to provide an insightful evaluation of the most recent literature on the overlooked scientific and clinical elements of dumping syndrome, such as diagnostic aspects, pathogenesis, terminology, and management. More research is needed to establish guidelines and terms used to properly document and manage dumping syndrome.
