Summary: Sex differences exist in the associations between obesity and colorectal cancer risk after bariatric surgery. This study found that males have an increased risk of colorectal cancer after bariatric surgery, while females have a decreased risk after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.

Summary: A meta-analysis found that bariatric surgery significantly reduces the incidence of colorectal cancer in individuals with obesity, regardless of gender and surgical procedure. Further large-scale studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: The incidence of colorectal adenomas after bariatric surgery is higher in patients with super morbid obesity (SMO) compared to obese and morbidly obese individuals. Pre-operative BMI should be taken into consideration in the post-operative screening plan for this population.

Summary: Obesity is a risk factor for colorectal cancer, and bariatric surgery can mitigate the effect of obesity on the risk of colorectal polyps. However, men still have a higher risk of colorectal cancer compared to women.

Summary: Bariatric surgery may increase the risk of micronutrient deficiencies. A study in two Australian public hospitals found that preoperative deficiencies were common, and although there was an increase in supplementation after surgery, most nutrients were still below the target dose. Some nutrients had higher deficiency rates after surgery, while others were associated with inflammation or improved glycaemic control.

Summary: This study suggests that the patterns of gut microbiota may be associated with the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) surgeries. Post-surgery patients had higher abundance of sulfide-reducing bacteria and lower abundance of butyrate-producing bacteria compared to pre-surgery subjects.

Summary: The impact of bariatric surgery on colorectal cancer risk in obesity patients remains controversial, with conflicting results from studies highlighting the need for more long-term research. In a prospective study, bariatric surgery was not found to be associated with altered risk of colorectal cancer.

Summary: This study identified risk factors for suicide after bariatric surgery, including gender, surgery type, and psychiatric disorders. Female patients had a lower risk of suicide compared to males, while gastric bypass surgery had a lower risk compared to other types of bariatric surgery. Patients with a history of depression or anxiety, mania, bipolar disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia, or substance use were at an increased risk of suicide.

Summary: The study indicates that patients who undergo bariatric surgery have a higher risk of fractures, mainly affecting the feet and hands, and fractures tend to occur earlier compared to controls.

Summary: Prior bariatric surgery is a significant risk factor for delivering small for gestational age (SGA) babies, with factors such as gestational weight gain, receiving nutritional advice, and weight management playing significant roles in influencing the risk of SGA babies.

Summary: This study compares the incidence of incisional hernias between laparoscopic and open surgery, and identifies risk factors associated with incisional hernias among Asian patients who have undergone major resection for colorectal cancer. The results show that there is no significant difference in the incidence of incisional hernias between laparoscopic and open surgery in Asian patients.

Summary: Metabolic (bariatric) surgery provides significant weight loss and improvement in type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular risk in morbidly obese individuals. There is emerging evidence that MBS may also impact cancer risk, although the specific factors influencing this and the underlying mechanisms are still unclear.

Summary: Obesity is a risk factor for different types of cancer. Bariatric surgery can reduce cancer risk, but its impact on colorectal cancer risk is controversial. Changes in gut microbiota and bile acid concentrations caused by bariatric surgery may increase the risk of colorectal cancer.

Summary: This article investigates the potential connection between bariatric surgery and the subsequent occurrence of achalasia. The study finds that peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a technically viable and safe intervention for achalasia in the bariatric surgery population.

Summary: Previous bariatric surgery does not significantly affect the cumulative live birth rate in IVF, despite a lower number of retrieved oocytes and frozen embryos in the surgery group, as well as a lower birth weight in children born to mothers with previous surgery.

Summary: Preventability estimate for colorectal cancer (CRC) is approximately 50%, with evidence that dietary factors affect CRC risk, though limited public health impact. Chemoprevention using supplements may provide an effective approach.

Summary: Experimental studies have shown that marine omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids have anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. Clinical data suggest that the activity of O3FAs in colorectal cancer depends on host and tumor characteristics, and further investigation is needed on the effect of O3FAs on gut microbiota for optimal prevention and treatment of CRC.

Summary: This study investigates the risk of colorectal polyps after short-term aspirin use. The results show that individuals who received aspirin demonstrated increased colorectal polyp risk during post-trial surveillance. This has important implications for aspirin cessation driven by age-related bleeding risk.
