Summary: This study aimed to compare the use of opioids in patients with obesity who underwent bariatric surgery versus those who underwent intensive lifestyle modification. The results showed that patients who underwent bariatric surgery had a higher proportion of opioid users and a larger total opioid dose, especially in those who received additional surgery during follow-up.

Summary: This study compared nutritional deficiencies and metabolic markers one year after OAGB and SG procedures. The results showed a higher risk of nutritional deficiencies after OAGB, but this risk can be minimized with nutritional recommendations and supplement plans, resulting in comparable metabolic improvement to SG after one year.

Summary: In a large cohort of commercially insured patients, sleeve gastrectomy was found to have a superior safety profile to gastric bypass up to 2 years from surgery, even when accounting for selection bias. However, further exploration is needed regarding the higher risk of revisions in sleeve gastrectomy.

Summary: This study assessed the relevance of concomitant laparoscopic metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) and cholecystectomy, and found that cholecystectomy should be avoided during sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and gastric bypass (GBP) procedures. Prophylactic cholecystectomy is not recommended for asymptomatic gallstones after MBS.

Summary: The study compared the incidence of GERD, esophagitis, and BE postoperatively in patients undergoing VSG and RYGB, finding that VSG patients had a higher frequency of postoperative GERD, while BE was more prevalent among RYGB patients. De novo esophageal reflux symptomatology was more common in VSG patients, but RYGB patients had a higher rate of re-admission.

Summary: In patients with severe obesity, those undergoing OAGB surgery showed a greater improvement in lipid profile compared to LSG patients. The reduction in plasma lipid levels was independent of the significant decrease in BMI after surgery.

Summary: Morbid obesity is a chronic disease with a rising incidence, and surgical treatment has shown superior outcomes compared to conventional weight loss measures. This study evaluated the long-term weight loss outcomes, comorbidity reduction, and adverse effects of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB), Biliopancreatic Diversion (BPD), and Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) at 10 years. RYGB and BPD resulted in significant weight loss, with no observed differences in diabetes resolution and adverse outcomes. Longer follow-up reports are important for comparing the outcomes of different bariatric operations.

Summary: This study compared the long-term outcomes of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in bariatric surgery patients. The results showed that OAGB had superior effects on weight loss, improvement of type 2 diabetes and sleep apnea, while SG was associated with more long-term problems such as insufficient weight loss/regain and reflux. However, OAGB had a higher risk of nutritional deficiencies.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of RYGB and SG for T2D remission and found that RYGB had a higher chance of achieving remission at 1 year compared to SG, while only showing a significant difference in achieving broad criteria for remission at 5 years. No other differences were found between the two procedures.

Summary: This study compared the long-term risks of reintervention following sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and found that sleeve gastrectomy was associated with significantly lower risk of reintervention in all categories at the 5-year follow-up. Patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy had better outcomes in subsequent interventions when compared with those undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Summary: The study compared meal-stimulated hormonal responses in patients with postbariatric surgery hypoglycemia (PBH) after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The results showed significant differences in glucagon and GLP-1 responses between the two groups, while insulin and GIP responses were similar.

Summary: Obesity is a critical risk factor for life-threatening diseases, and the prevalence in adults has significantly increased in the past decade. Surgical treatment, such as sleeve gastrectomy, is the most effective method for obese patients. However, the changes in gastric wall cells and pacemaker activity after surgery, as well as the recovery of normal gastric activity, require further investigation.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of two commonly used bariatric procedures and found that gastric bypass was more effective in mitigating dyslipidemia caused by obesity.

Summary: This study described the experience with robotic-assisted management of intractable GERD, showing that the robotic platform is a feasible option with high success rates and low morbidity in different treatment approaches for GERD after sleeve gastrectomy. Further data is needed to support these findings.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of weight loss surgery on insulin kinetics. The results showed that the altered insulin clearance rate after surgery is mainly attributed to the liver rather than other organs. In addition, the endogenous insulin clearance rate is more sensitive to the increase in circulating insulin levels, while peripheral insulin sensitivity is similar among the three groups. After a meal, the weight loss surgery group had higher insulin secretion, independent of glycemic levels. Compared to sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass surgery resulted in greater post-meal insulin secretion and a reduction in post-meal insulin clearance rate.

Summary: Laparoscopic transcystic common bile duct exploration is recommended for patients with gallbladder and bile duct stones. If it fails, laparoscopic choledocotomy may be required, and most patients are managed with primary duct closure or T-tube placement.
