Summary: This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of bariatric surgery and medical treatment for obese adolescents with type 2 diabetes. The results showed that bariatric surgery was more effective than medical treatment in controlling weight loss and type 2 diabetes, with LRYGB surgery having better effects on weight loss and glycemic control.

Summary: Despite increasing prevalence of severe morbid obesity in children and adolescents, management requires a lifelong multidisciplinary approach including lifestyle changes and medication. Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) has evolved from controversy to being included in distinct recommendations, with significant improvement seen in resolving major co-morbidities.

Summary: Obesity is a major global health issue, with the prevalence increasing worldwide, making novel strategies to combat it crucial. Endovascular bariatric surgery (EBS) is seen as a promising innovation for weight and hormonal imbalance reduction in obese individuals, offering less invasiveness and faster recovery compared to traditional surgical methods.

Summary: The study found that metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) has better long-term effects on weight loss, remission of comorbidities, and improved quality of life for severely obese Chinese adolescents. However, patients who undergo MBS surgery are at a higher risk of malnutrition.

Summary: This study aimed to explore gender differences and steatosis status in obese patients. The results showed a higher prevalence of obesity in women compared to men, with steatosis being more common in the male subcohort but with greater within-group differences in female patients.

Summary: This systematic review investigates the changes occurring in the stomatognathic system of patients with obesity after undergoing bariatric surgery. The study finds that obese patients have abnormalities in the structures and function of the stomatognathic apparatus due to adipose tissue accumulation in the oral cavity and pharyngeal and laryngeal regions. However, there is limited research on the postoperative changes in the stomatognathic system.

Summary: Bariatric surgery is associated with an increased incidence of hypoglycaemia-related events in patients without baseline diabetes, especially during the first years after treatment. In patients without baseline diabetes, male sex, older age, and higher HbA1c levels were associated with hypoglycaemia-related events. No association was found between risk of hypoglycaemia-related events and bariatric surgery in patients with baseline diabetes.

Summary: Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technology has been revitalized and advanced by utilizing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as substrates. In this study, Fe3O4@UiO-66(Zr)@Ag nanoparticles (FUAs) were developed as a new SERS substrate for trace detection of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) in food. The FUAs exhibited excellent SERS detection sensitivity, uniformity, reproducibility, and stability, with a high Raman enhancement factor and low limit of detection for 4-NBT. The FUAs also achieved trace detection of OP compounds in apple juice, meeting the requirements of food control standards.

Summary: Bariatric surgery leads to significant weight loss and improvement in obesity-related co-morbidities, but it carries risks and requires a well-established pre- and postoperative clinical pathway. In France, this pathway is guided by recommendations from the High Authority of Health in 2009, with an update expected in 2023. Preoperative considerations include the failure of medical treatment, specific BMI criteria, and preparation of the patient through counseling and understanding potential complications. Postoperative aspects involve informed consent, lifelong supplementation, and financial implications.

Summary: Although bariatric surgery (BS) can lead to significant weight loss and improved health outcomes, it is important to establish a clear pre- and postoperative clinical pathway. This study discusses the recommendations and considerations for BS in France, including patient selection, preparation, and postoperative follow-up. Compliance with the proposed modalities is essential for sustainable results, and alternative options such as GLP-1 analogues may be promising in certain cases.

Summary: The issue of adolescent obesity has reached epidemic levels globally, with bariatric surgery proving to be an effective treatment, showing positive effects on weight, BMI reduction, hormonal changes, co-morbidity resolution, sleep, and psychological outcomes. However, further research is needed to assess long-term data and trends into adulthood.

Summary: The study found high rates of mental disorders, particularly mood and eating disorders, among obese patients seeking bariatric surgery. Comparative results showed significant differences in psychiatric comorbidities, temperaments, emotional dysregulation, and impulsivity between obese patients with and without mood disorders.
