Intersession reliability of lower limb muscle strength assessments in adults with obesity eligible for bariatric surgery. Clin Physiol Funct Imaging 2024; 44:303-312. [PMID: 38462744 DOI: 10.1111/cpf.12876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the test-retest reliability in lower limb muscle strength and rate of torque development (RTD) using isokinetic dynamometry in adults with obesity, with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m2. METHOD Thirty-two adults with a BMI of 43.8 ± 6.6 kg/m2 eligible for bariatric surgery were enroled in the study. Isokinetic and isometric knee extensor (KE) and flexor (KF) strength were assessed in an isokinetic dynamometer (Biodex 4) during three test sessions separated by 3-7 days. RESULTS There were no statistical differences in peak KE and KF torque for any test modalities between sessions. Intraclass correlation (ICC) was 0.91-0.94 between sessions 1 and 2 and 0.94-0.97 between sessions 2 and 3. Standard error of measurement (SEM%) and coefficient of variation (CV) ranged across test sessions from 4.3% to 7.3%. KE RTD showed high test-retest reliability following familiarization, with ICC, CV and SEM% values ranging from 0.84 to 0.90, 13.3%-20.3% and 14.6%-24.9%, respectively. CONCLUSION Maximal lower limb muscle strength measured by isokinetic dynamometry showed excellent test-retest reliability manifested by small measurement errors and low CV. Reliability was slightly improved by including a familiarization session. KE RTD but not KF RTD demonstrated high test-retest reliability following familiarization. The present data indicate that isokinetic dynamometry can be used to detect even small changes in lower limb muscle strength in adults with obesity.

Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2024; 40:e3830. [PMID: 38873748 DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.3830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
Metabolic/bariatric surgery as a treatment for obesity and related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), has been increasingly recognised in recent years. However, compared with conventional pharmacologic therapy, the long-term effect (≥ 5 years) of metabolic surgery in T2DM patients is still unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the diabetes remission rate, incidence of diabetic microvascular complications, incidence of macrovascular complications, and mortality in T2DM patients who received metabolic surgery versus pharmacologic therapy more than 5 years after the surgery. Searching the database, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library from the inception to recent (2024), for randomised clinical trials (RCTs) or cohort studies comparing T2DM patients treated with metabolic surgery versus pharmacologic therapy reporting on the outcomes of the diabetes remission rate, diabetic microvascular complications, macrovascular complications, or mortality over 5 years or more. A total of 15 articles with a total of 85,473 patients with T2DM were eligible for review and meta-analysis in this study. There is a significant long-term increase in diabetes remission for metabolic surgery compared with conventional medical therapy in the overall pooled estimation and RCT studies or cohort studies separately (overall: OR = 4.58, 95% CI: 1.89-11.07, P < 0.001). Significant long-term decreases were found in the pooled results of microvascular complications incidence (HR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.41-0.78, P < 0.001), macrovascular complications incidence (HR = 0.59, 95% CI: 0.50-0.70, P < 0.001) and mortality (HR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.53-0.79, P = 0.0018). Metabolic surgery showed more significant long-term effects than pharmacologic therapy on diabetes remission, macrovascular complications, microvascular complications incidence, and all-cause mortality in patients with T2DM using currently available evidence. More high-quality evidence is needed to validate the long-term effects of metabolic surgery versus conventional treatment in diabetes management.

Abstract
For adults with advanced heart failure, class II/III obesity (body mass index ≥35 kg/m2) represents major challenges, and it is even considered a contraindication for heart transplantation (HT) at many centers. This has led to growing interest in preventing and treating obesity to help patients with advanced heart failure become HT candidates. Among all weight-loss strategies, bariatric surgery (BSx) has the greatest weight loss efficacy and has shown value in enabling select patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) and obesity to lose sufficient weight to access HT. Nevertheless, both BSx and antiobesity medications warrant caution in the LVAD population. In this review, the authors describe and interpret the available published reports on the impact of obesity and weight-loss strategies for patients with LVADs from general and HT candidacy standpoints. The authors also provide an overview of the journey of LVAD recipients who undergo BSx and review major aspects of perioperative protocols.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a highly heterogeneous syndrome, making it challenging to improve prognosis with pharmacotherapy. Obesity is one of the leading phenotypes of HFpEF, and its prevalence continues to grow worldwide. Consequently, obesity-targeted interventions have attracted attention as a novel treatment strategy for HFpEF. AREAS COVERED The authors review the association between the pathogenesis of obesity and HFpEF and the potential for obesity-targeted pharmacotherapeutic strategies in HFpEF, together with the latest evidence. The literature search was conducted in PubMed up to April 2024. EXPERT OPINION The STEP HFpEF (Semaglutide Treatment Effect in People with obesity and HFpEF) and SELECT (Semaglutide Effects on Cardiovascular Outcomes in People with Overweight or Obesity) trials recently demonstrated that the glucagon-like peptide 1 analogue, semaglutide, improves various aspects of clinical outcomes in obese HFpEF patients and significantly reduces cardiovascular and heart failure events in non-diabetic obese patients, along with a substantial weight loss. Future clinical trials with other incretin mimetics with more potent weight loss and sub-analyses of the SELECT trial may further emphasize the importance of the obesity phenotype-based approach in the treatment of HFpEF.

Abstract
This joint ASGE-ESGE guideline provides an evidence-based summary and recommendations regarding the role of endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) in the management of obesity. The document was developed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework. It evaluates the efficacy and safety of EBMT devices and procedures that currently have CE mark or FDA-clearance/approval, or that had been approved within five years of document development. The guideline suggests the use of EBMTs plus lifestyle modification in patients with a BMI of ≥ 30 kg/m2, or with a BMI of 27.0-29.9 kg/m2 with at least 1 obesity-related comorbidity. Furthermore, it suggests the utilization of intragastric balloons and devices for endoscopic gastric remodeling (EGR) in conjunction with lifestyle modification for this patient population.

Abstract
The metabolic syndrome, characterized by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, collectively increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prominent manifestation, affecting over a third of the global population with a concerning annual increase in prevalence. Nearly 70 % of overweight individuals have NAFLD, and NAFLD-related deaths are predicted to rise, especially among young adults. The association of T2DM and NAFLD has led to the proposal of "metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease" (MASLD) terminology, encompassing individuals with T2DM, overweight/obesity, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, or low HDL-cholesterol. Patients with MASLD will likely have double the risk of developing T2DM, and the combination of insulin resistance, overweight/obesity, and MASLD significantly elevates the risk of T2DM. Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of mortality in the MASLD and T2DM population, with MASLD directly associated with coronary artery disease, compounded by coexisting insulin resistance and T2DM. Urgency lies in early detection of subclinical cardiovascular diseases among patients with T2DM and MASLD. Novel strategies targeting multiple pathways offer hope for effectively improving cardiometabolic health. Understanding and addressing the intertwined factors contributing to these disorders can pave the way towards better management and prevention of cardiometabolic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controversy regarding the timing of pregnancy and its implications is present in the literature. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the midterm outcome of weight loss in women who have undergone laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) followed by pregnancy at two different times. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 53 women who matched the inclusion criteria and included them in the analysis. Demographics and anthropometric measurements were collected. Women who conceived within 12 months of LSG were labeled as early group (EG), and who conceived after 12 months were noted as late group (LG). RESULTS There were no differences between the groups regarding obesity-associated disease and number of pregnancies before. EG had higher weight (P = 0.0001) and body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.002) at LSG. The mean interval time for EG was 6.7 ± 3.2 months, and LG was 20 ± 5.2 months. Gestational weight gain (GWG) was lower in the EG (P = 0.001). There were no differences in the number of small for gestational age (SGA) births or gestational weight. In the first 2 years after LSG, LG had a higher percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and percentage of body mass index loss (%EBMIL) (P < 0.0001). After 5 years of follow-up, %TWL (P = 0.4) and %EBMIL (P = 0.1) were not statistically significant between both groups. CONCLUSION Conception within 12 months from LSG might hinder the weight loss process in the short term but have no significant effect over 5 years of follow-up.

Abstract
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is the most common form of chronic liver disease. It exists as either simple steatosis or its more progressive form, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), formerly, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The global prevalence of MASLD is estimated to be 32% among adults and is projected to continue to rise with increasing rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. While simple steatosis is often considered benign and reversible, MASH is progressive, potentially leading to the development of cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Treatment of MASH is therefore directed at slowing, stopping, or reversing the progression of disease. Evidence points to improved liver histology with therapies that result in sustained body weight reduction. Incretin-based molecules, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), alone or in combination with glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and/or glucagon receptor agonists, have shown benefit here, and several are under investigation for MASLD/MASH treatment. In this review, we discuss current published data on GLP-1, GIP/GLP-1, GLP-1/glucagon, and GLP-1/GIP/glucagon RAs in MASLD/MASH, focusing on their efficacy on liver histology, liver fat, and MASH biomarkers.

Obes Surg 2024; 34:1590-1599. [PMID: 38478194 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-024-07156-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is a widely used and effective treatment for patients with obesity and comorbid metabolic abnormalities. No specialized tool is available to predict metabolic syndrome (MS) remission after SG. We presented a nomogram that evaluated the probability of MS remission in obese patients 1 year after SG. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with preoperative MS who underwent SG were enrolled in this retrospective study. They were divided into a training set and a validation set. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of MS remission, and these predictors were included in the nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate discrimination. Calibration was performed with the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test. The net benefits of the nomogram were evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS Three hundred and eighteen patients with a median age of 34.0 years were analyzed. A training set and a validation set with 159 individuals each were established. A combination of age, preoperative high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, elevated triglycerides and glycated hemoglobin level independently and accurately predicted MS remission. The nomogram included these factors. The discriminative ability was moderate in training and validation sets (Area under curve 0.800 and 0.727, respectively). The Hosmer-Lemeshow X2 value of the nomogram was 8.477 (P = 0.388) for the training set and 5.361 (P = 0.718) for the validation set, indicating good calibration. DCA showed the nomogram had clinical benefits in both datasets. CONCLUSION Our nomogram could accurately predict MS remission in Chinese patients with obesity 1 year after SG.

Associations between non-insulin-based insulin resistance indices and heart failure prevalence in overweight/obesity adults without diabetes mellitus: evidence from the NHANES 2001-2018. Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:123.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio are recognized as simple non-insulin-based insulin resistance indices. Our study aimed to explore the relationship between these two indicators and heart failure (HF) in overweight or obesity individuals without diabetes. METHODS This cross-sectional study selected 13,473 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001-2018 dataset. Weighted multivariable logistic regression and subgroup analysis were employed to evaluate the relationships between TyG index, TG/HDL-C ratio, and HF prevalence, respectively. Additionally, smooth curve fitting was utilized to analyze the dose-response relationships. RESULTS A total of 13,473 obesity or overweight people without diabetes were included in this study through screening, among whom 291 (2.16%) had comorbid HF. The results of multivariable logistic regression suggested that the highest TyG index (OR = 2.4, 95% CI = 1.4-4.2, p = 0.002) and the highest TG/HDL-C ratio (OR = 1.2, 95% CI = 1.1-1.3, p < 0.001) both increased the prevalence of HF, especially in the non-Hispanic population. Dose-response relationships suggested nonlinear relationships between these two indicators and HF. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that elevated TyG index and TG/HDL-C ratio were closely associated with the prevalence of HF, and both exhibited nonlinear relationships with HF prevalence in overweight/obesity adults without diabetes. Based on these findings, additional prospective studies are needed for further validation.

Abstract
The global prevalence of obesity has risen sharply during the past half-century, reaching pandemic proportions and creating a public health crisis. Obesity is a recognized risk factor for the development of diabetes, atherosclerosis, hypertension, hepatic steatosis, and many other cardiometabolic disorders with significant resultant morbidity and mortality. Though treatment of obesity can prevent or slow the progression of these aforementioned illnesses, efforts to help patients achieve reliable and sustainable weight loss have had limited success. While improving nutrition and increasing physical activity results in a host of health benefits, the weight loss achieved with lifestyle interventions alone is modest and difficult to sustain. Early attempts at medical and surgical treatment of obesity were plagued with adverse effects and complications. Moreover, these approaches failed to demonstrate long-term health benefits, even when weight loss was achieved. Recently, novel incretin-based therapies targeting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors have gained popularity due to their effectiveness in achieving substantial weight loss in patients both with and without diabetes. After many successful clinical trials, there are now multiple GLP-1 and one dual GLP-1-GIP receptor agonists FDA approved for chronic weight management. Advancements in laparoscopic surgical technique and refinements in procedure selection have similarly improved the safety and efficacy of bariatric metabolic surgery for achieving weight reduction in overweight and obese patients. In this review, we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of contemporary pharmacologic and surgical weight management strategies. We review the data regarding expected weight loss, glycemic control, cardiometabolic benefits, and potential adverse effects of various treatment approaches. As obesity rates continue to rise worldwide, it is imperative that clinicians keep these considerations in mind in order to better care for patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW What is new? Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes (T2D) individuals. Of the major risk factors for CVD, less than 10% of T2D people meet the American Diabetes Association/American Heart Association recommended goals of therapy. The present review examines how much of the absolute cardiovascular (CV) risk in type 2 diabetes patients can be explained by major CV intervention trials. RECENT FINDINGS Multiple long-term cardiovascular (CV) intervention trials have examined the effect of specific target-directed therapies on the MACE endpoint. Only one prospective study, STENO-2, has employed a multifactorial intervention comparing intensified versus conventional treatment of modifiable risk factors in T2D patients, and demonstrated a 20% absolute CV risk reduction. If the absolute CV risk reduction in these trials is added to that in the only prospective multifactorial intervention trial (STENO-2), the unexplained CV risk is 44.1%. What are the clinical implications? Potential explanations for the unaccounted-for reduction in absolute CV risk in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients are discussed. HYPOTHESIS failure to take into account synergistic interactions between major cardiovascular risk factors is responsible for the unexplained CV risk in T2D patients. Simultaneous treatment of all major CV risk factors to recommended AHA/ADA guideline goals is required to achieve the maximum reduction in CV risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) not only leads to a durable weight loss but also lowers mortality, and reduces cardiovascular risks. OBJECTIVES The current study aims to investigate the association of bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) with admissions for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), including ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), as well as, coronary revascularization procedures, including percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), and thrombolysis. SETTING The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. METHODS The NIS data from 2016 to 2020 were analyzed. A propensity score matching in a 1:1 ratio was performed to match patients with history of MBS with non-MBS group. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-three thousand seven hundred twenty-nine patients from the non-MBS group were matched with 233,729 patients with history of MBS. The MBS group had about 52% reduced odds of admission for AMI compared to the non-MBS group (adjusted odd ratio: .477, 95% confidence interval: .454-.502, P value <.001). In addition, the odds of STEMI and NSEMI were significantly lower in the MBS group in comparison to the non-MBS group. Also, the MBS group had significantly lower odds of CABG, PCI, and thrombolysis compared to the non-MBS group. In addition, in patients with AMI, MBS was associated with lower in-hospital mortality (adjusted odd ratio: .627, 95% confidence interval: .469-.839, P value = .004), length of hospital stays, and total charges. CONCLUSIONS History of MBS is significantly associated with reduced risk of admission for AMI including STEMI and NSTEMI, as well as the, need for coronary revascularization such as PCI and CABG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bariatric surgery the reduces risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes in individuals with obesity, but it is unclear whether the benefit varies by sex, age, or socioeconomic status. The aim was to assess the risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes after metabolic bariatric surgery in these subgroups. METHODS The Finnish Public Sector study, a follow-up study with matched controls nested in a large employee cohort, included patients without type 2 diabetes and with a diagnosis of obesity or self-reported BMI of at least 35 kg/m2. For each patient who had laparoscopic metabolic bariatric surgery (2008-2016), two propensity-score matched controls were selected. New-onset type 2 diabetes was ascertained from linked records from national health registries. RESULTS The study included a total of 917 patients and 1811 matched controls with obesity. New-onset type 2 diabetes was diagnosed in 15 of the patients who had metabolic bariatric surgery (4.1 per 1000 person-years) and 164 controls (20.2 per 1000 person-years). The corresponding rate ratio (RR) was 0.20 (95% c.i. 0.12 to 0.35) and the rate difference (RD) was -16.1 (-19.8 to -12.3) per 1000 person-years. The risk reduction was more marked in individuals of low socioeconomic status (RR 0.10 (0.04 to 0.26) and RD -20.6 (-25.6 to -15.5) per 1000 person-years) than in those with higher socioeconomic status (RR 0.35 (0.18 to 0.66) and RD -11.5 (-16.9 to -6.0) per 1000 person-years) (Pinteraction = 0.017). No differences were observed between sexes or age groups. CONCLUSION Metabolic bariatric surgery was associated with a reduced risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes in men and women and in all age groups. The greatest benefit was observed in individuals of low socioeconomic status.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic and relapsing disease characterized by the interaction between individual predispositions and an obesogenic environment. Recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of energetic homoeostasis paved the way to more effective therapeutic approaches compared with traditional treatments. Since obesity is a complex disease, it necessitates a multi-disciplinary approach whose implementation remains challenging. Nonetheless, emerging pharmacological interventions appear promising. Currently, therapeutic success is discreet in the short term but often fails to maintain long-term weight loss due to a high likelihood of weight regain. Cardiologists play a key role in managing patients with obesity, yet often lack familiarity with its comprehensive management. The aim of this document is to summarize knowledge to consolidate essential knowledge for clinicians to effectively treat patients living with obesity. The paper emphasizes the pivotal role of a strong patient-clinician relationship in navigating successful treatment. We analyse the criteria commonly used to diagnose obesity and point out the strengths and limitations of different criteria. Furthermore, we discuss the role of obesiologists and the contributions of cardiologists. In addition, we detail key components of effective therapeutic strategies, including educational aspects and pharmacological options.

Abstract
After bariatric surgery, patients with obesity achieve sustainable weight loss, gain in mobility, quality of life and life expectancy. Bariatric surgery can lead to remission of type 2 diabetes or to long term glycaemic control for patients with type 2 diabetes, while medical treatment has a preventive efficacy on micro and macrovascular complications. This has led to the concept of metabolic surgery to treat type 2 diabetes. Despite the benefits, only a small proportion of eligible patients undergo bariatric/metabolic surgery. Powerful antidiabetic medications, self-estimated lack of knowledge by medical professionals and fear of surgical complications are some of the arguments to prefer medical treatment of type 2 diabetes obesity versus metabolic surgery. We have reviewed in this paper the barriers which explain the low referral rate to metabolic surgery. With the point of view of the diabetologist, the general practitioner and the patient, we have addressed them to help clinicians and patients model an evidenced-based patient-oriented medical plan.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease associated with serious complications and increased mortality. Weight loss (WL) through lifestyle changes results in modest WL long-term possibly due to compensatory biological adaptations (increased appetite and reduced energy expenditure) promoting weight gain. Bariatric surgery was until recently the only intervention that consistently resulted in ≥ 15% WL and maintenance. Our better understanding of the endocrine regulation of appetite has led to the development of new medications over the last decade for the treatment of obesity with main target the reduction of appetite. The efficacy of semaglutide 2.4 mg/week-the latest glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogue-on WL for people with obesity suggests that we are entering a new era in obesity pharmacotherapy where ≥15% WL is feasible. Moreover, the WL achieved with the dual agonist tirzepatide (GLP-1/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) for people with type 2 diabetes and most recently also obesity, indicate that combining the GLP-1 with other gut hormones may lead to additional WL compared with GLP-1 receptor analogues alone and in the future, multi-agonist molecules may offer the potential to bridge further the efficacy gap between bariatric surgery and the currently available pharmacotherapies.

Abstract
Traditional approaches to prevention of the complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity have focused on reduction of blood glucose and body weight. The development of new classes of medications, together with evidence from dietary weight loss and bariatric surgery trials, provides new options for prevention of heart failure, chronic kidney disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, metabolic liver disease, cancer, T2D, and neurodegenerative disorders. Here I review evidence for use of lifestyle modification, SGLT-2 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and bariatric surgery, for prevention of cardiorenal and metabolic complications in people with T2D or obesity, highlighting the contributions of weight loss, as well as weight loss-independent mechanisms of action. Collectively, the evidence supports a tailored approach to selection of therapeutic interventions for T2D and obesity based on the likelihood of developing specific complications, rather than a stepwise approach focused exclusively on glycemic or weight control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare histologic outcomes in patients with fibrotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and obesity after metabolic surgery versus nonsurgical care. BACKGROUND There are no published data comparing the effects of metabolic surgery versus nonsurgical care on histologic progression of NASH. METHODS Repeat liver biopsies were performed in patients with body mass index >30 kg/m 2 at a US health system whose baseline liver biopsy between 2004 and 2016 confirmed a histologic diagnosis of NASH including the presence of liver fibrosis, but without cirrhosis. Baseline characteristics of liver histology for patients who underwent simultaneous liver biopsy at the time of metabolic surgery were balanced with a nonsurgical control group using overlap weighting methods. The primary composite endpoint required both resolution of NASH and improvement of at least 1 fibrosis stage in the repeat liver biopsy. RESULTS A total of 133 patients (42 metabolic surgery and 91 nonsurgical controls) had a repeat liver biopsy with a median interval of 2 years. Overlap weighting provided balance for baseline histologic disease activity, fibrosis stage, and time interval between liver biopsies. In overlap-weighted patients, 50.1% in the surgical and 12.1% in the nonsurgical group met the primary endpoint (odds ratio=7.3; 95% CI, 2.8-19.2, P <0.001). NASH resolution and fibrosis improvement occurred in 68.5% and 64.1% of surgical patients, respectively. Surgical and nonsurgical patients who met the primary endpoint lost more weight than their counterparts who did not meet the primary endpoint [mean weight loss difference in the surgical group: 12.2% (95% CI, 7.3%-17.2%) and in the nonsurgical group: 11.6% (95% CI, 6.2%-16.9%)]. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with fibrotic noncirrhotic NASH, metabolic surgery resulted in simultaneous NASH resolution and fibrosis improvement in half of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Utilization patterns of bariatric surgery among older patients with heart failure (HF), and the associations with cardiovascular outcomes, are not well known. METHODS Medicare beneficiaries with HF and at least class II obesity from 2013 to 2020 were identified with Medicare Provider Analysis and Review 100% inpatient files and Medicare 5% outpatient files. Patients who underwent bariatric surgery were matched to controls in a 1:2 ratio (matched on exact age, sex, race, body mass index, HF encounter year, and HF hospitalization rate pre-surgery/matched period). In an exploratory analysis, patients prescribed pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects (semaglutide, liraglutide, naltrexone-bupropion, or orlistat) were identified and matched to controls with a similar strategy in addition to HF medical therapy data. Cox models evaluated associations between weight loss therapies (as a time-varying covariate) and mortality risk and HF hospitalization rate (calculated as the rate of HF hospitalizations following index HF encounter per 100 person-months) during follow-up. RESULTS Of 298 101 patients with HF and body mass index ≥35 kg/m2, 2594 (0.9%) underwent bariatric surgery (45% men; mean age, 56.2 years; mean body mass index, 51.5 kg/m2). In propensity-matched analyses over a median follow-up of 4.7 years, bariatric surgery was associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 0.55 [95% CI, 0.49-0.63]; P<0.001), greater reduction in HF hospitalization rate (rate ratio, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.67-0.77]; P<0.001), and lower atrial fibrillation risk (HR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.65-0.93]; P=0.006). Use of pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects was low (4.8%), with 96.3% prescribed GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonists (semaglutide, 23.6%; liraglutide, 72.7%). In propensity-matched analysis over a median follow-up of 2.8 years, patients receiving pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects (versus matched controls) had a lower risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 0.82 [95% CI, 0.71-0.95]; P=0.007) and HF hospitalization rate (rate ratio, 0.87 [95% CI, 0.77-0.99]; P=0.04). CONCLUSIONS Bariatric surgery and pharmacotherapies with weight loss effects are associated with a lower risk of adverse outcomes among older patients with HF and obesity; however, overall utilization remains low.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While considered standard of care for obesity management, bariatric surgery is uncommon in patients with co-morbid inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to assess the association of IBD with postoperative outcomes and resource use following bariatric surgery. SETTING Academic, university-affiliated; United States. METHODS All elective adult hospitalizations for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) were identified in the 2016-2019 Nationwide Readmissions Database. Patients were classified based on diagnosis of ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). Multivariable regression models were developed to evaluate the association of IBD with outcomes of interest. RESULTS Of an estimated 719,270 eligible patients, 860 and 1214 comprised the UC and CD cohorts, respectively. Compared to non-IBD, UC and CD had a higher Elixhauser comorbidity index (UC: 3.0 ± 1.4; CD: 3.1 ± 1.5; non-IBD: 2.7 ± 1.4, P < .001) and more frequently underwent sleeve gastrectomy (UC: 77.5%; CD: 83.2%; non-IBD: 68.8%, P < .001). All IBD patients survived to discharge. After adjustment, IBD was not associated with significant differences in most clinical outcomes analyzed. UC (adjusted odds ratio: 2.86; 95% confidence interval: 1.14-7.13) and CD (adjusted odds ratio: 4.40; 95% confidence interval: 2.20-8.80) were associated with increased odds of gastric outlet obstruction after RYGB but not sleeve gastrectomy. CD, but not UC, was linked to significantly higher odds of small bowel obstruction following RYGB (adjusted odds ratio: 4.50; 95% confidence interval: 1.76-11.49). There was no difference in index LOS, hospitalization costs, or odds of 30-day readmission based on IBD. CONCLUSIONS Patients with obesity and IBD faced low rates of adverse outcomes following bariatric surgery. There is an increased risk of gastrointestinal obstruction for patients with IBD undergoing RYGB. Given its safety profile, bariatric surgery can be utilized as a weight loss intervention for the growing proportion of patients with obesity and co-morbid IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a chronic and complex disease characterized by the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue, which has detrimental effects on health. Evaluating the changes in quality of life (QoL) after bariatric surgery complements the medical benefits which are documented by healthcare professionals. PURPOSE To study the perceived health benefits 1 year after substantial weight loss induced by bariatric surgery. METHODS This pilot study evaluated patients 1 year after bariatric surgery using 13 questions related to the health domains of the KOSS: airway, body mass, cardiovascular risk, diabetes, economic impact, functional, gonadal impact, health status perceived, image, junction of the gastro-esophagus, kidney, liver, and medication. In addition, the patients were asked to score the most significant benefit as "1," while the least beneficial benefit was scored as "13." RESULTS One hundred fourteen consecutive patients were evaluated (men = 37 and women = 77). The responses were divided into functional, metabolic, and mental/social benefits. Patients ranked the functional question, "I became more active, and I can do more things" as the most important (average score of 3.7 ± 0.2), followed by a question related to metabolic status: "I am less worried about my risk of heart disease" (4.5 ± 0.3), and then a social/mental question, "My clothes fit better" (5.4 ± 0.3). The three least valuable benefits for the cohort were sexual life improvements (8.9 ± 0.3), heartburn improvements (9.0 ± 0.3), and urinary incontinence improvements (9.8 ± 0.3). CONCLUSIONS Our observational pilot study demonstrated that patients value functional benefits after substantial weight loss the most, but that metabolic benefits and social/mental health benefits are also considered important.

Abstract
Background Secondary prevention lifestyle and pharmacological treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) reduce a high proportion of recurrent events and mortality. However, significant gaps exist between guideline recommendations and usual clinical practice. Objectives Describe the state of the art, the roadblocks, and successful strategies to overcome them in ASCVD secondary prevention management. Methods A writing group reviewed guidelines and research papers and received inputs from an international committee composed of cardiovascular prevention and health systems experts about the article's structure, content, and draft. Finally, an external expert group reviewed the paper. Results Smoking cessation, physical activity, diet and weight management, antiplatelets, statins, beta-blockers, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, and cardiac rehabilitation reduce events and mortality. Potential roadblocks may occur at the individual, healthcare provider, and health system levels and include lack of access to healthcare and medicines, clinical inertia, lack of primary care infrastructure or built environments that support preventive cardiovascular health behaviours. Possible solutions include improving health literacy, self-management strategies, national policies to improve lifestyle and access to secondary prevention medication (including fix-dose combination therapy), implementing rehabilitation programs, and incorporating digital health interventions. Digital tools are being examined in a range of settings from enhancing self-management, risk factor control, and cardiac rehab. Conclusions Effective strategies for secondary prevention management exist, but there are barriers to their implementation. WHF roadmaps can facilitate the development of a strategic plan to identify and implement local and national level approaches for improving secondary prevention.

Abstract
Bile acids play important roles in lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. Limited research exist on the association between serum total bile acid (TBA) levels and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), particularly those with comorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study was conducted to examine the relationship between baseline serum TBA level and T2DM status in patients with ACS after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to identify the predictive value of TBA levels for a 2-year risk of MACEs. 425 ACS patients underwent PCI were recruited and divided into three groups based on baseline serum TBA concentration. An analysis of the association between the T2DM status and baseline serum TBA levels was conducted using univariate linear regression and multivariate linear regression. The predictive relevance of serum TBA levels was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Cox regression. Kaplan-Meier curves were employed to analyze the differences among groups in predicting MACEs over a 2-year follow-up period. Baseline serum TBA levels were higher in ACS patients who were diagnosed with T2DM (the median 3.6 µmol/L) than those without T2DM (the median 3.0 µmol/L). T2DM status in ACS patients was positively correlated with baseline serum TBA concentrations (β: 1.7, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.3-3.0), particularly in the male (β: 2.0, 95% CI 0.3-3.6) and 50-69-year-old (β: 2.5, 95% CI 0.6-4.4) populations. The areas under the ROC curve of baseline serum TBA levels predicted MACEs in ACS and ACS-T2DM patients following PCI were 0.649 (95% CI 0.595-0.703) and 0.783 (95% CI 0.685-0.881), respectively. Furthermore, Cox regression analysis showed that baseline serum TBA level was associated with the occurrence of MACEs in patients with ACS after PCI over a 2-year follow-up period, especially in those diagnosed with T2DM, whose baseline TBA concentration was lower than 10.0 µmol/L. ACS Patients with T2DM had higher serum TBA levels. TBA level at baseline was an independent predictor of MACEs in ACS patients who underwent PCI, especially with comorbid T2DM.

[PMID: 38156532 PMCID: PMC10863834 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.123.031505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease morbidity and death, including heart failure. Bariatric surgery has been proven to be the most effective long-term weight management treatment. This study investigated the changes in cardiac structure and function after bariatric surgery, including left ventricular global longitudinal strain. METHODS AND RESULTS There were 398 consecutive patients who underwent bariatric surgery with pre- and postoperative transthoracic echocardiographic imaging at a US health system between 2004 and 2019. We compared cardiovascular risk factors and echocardiographic parameters between baseline and follow-up at least 6 months postoperatively. Along with decreases in weight postoperatively, there were significant improvements in cardiovascular risk factors, including reduction in systolic blood pressure levels from 132 mm Hg (25th-75th percentile: 120-148 mm Hg) to 127 mm Hg (115-140 mm Hg; P=0.003), glycated hemoglobin levels from 6.5% (5.9%-7.6%) to 5.7% (5.4%-6.3%; P<0.001), and low-density lipoprotein levels from 97 mg/dL (74-121 mg/dL) to 86 mg/dL (63-106 mg/dL; P<0.001). Left ventricular mass decreased from 205 g (165-261 g) to 190 g (151-236 g; P<0.001), left ventricular ejection fraction increased from 58% (55%-61%) to 60% (55%-64%; P<0.001), and left ventricular global longitudinal strain improved from -15.7% (-14.3% to -17.5%) to -18.6% (-16.0% to -20.3%; P<0.001) postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS This study has shown the long-term impact of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and function, with reductions in left ventricular mass and improvement in left ventricular global longitudinal strain. These findings support the cardiovascular benefits of bariatric surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is linked with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events. Studies have suggested an association between the reduction of incident cardiovascular events in patients with MASLD after bariatric surgery. This systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to assess the influence of bariatric surgery on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diagnosed MASLD by identifying all available cohort studies and pooling their data. METHODS PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched till July 2023 for published studies that assessed the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiovascular outcomes in MASLD patients. Using a random effects model, hazard ratios (HRs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled. RESULTS The systematic review identified three cohort studies. The analysis of 240,516 MASLD patients found a significantly reduced incidence of cardiovascular events. (HR 0.51; 95 % CI 0.48 to 0.54, P value <0.00001). CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery in MASLD patients significantly reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events, suggesting that bariatric surgery is an effective therapeutic tool among MASLD patients compared to non-surgical interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease along with other adverse events after bariatric surgery. OBJECTIVES The incidence of short-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with MetS undergoing bariatric surgery is not well characterized. SETTING Accredited bariatric surgery centers in the United States and Canada. METHODS A total of 760,076 patients aged ≥18 years with body mass index ≥35 kg/m2 who underwent primary bariatric surgery between 2015 and 2018 were included. Patients with both diabetes and hypertension were described as the MetS cohort. Patient characteristics, operative technique, and 30-day outcomes were compared. The primary outcome was incidence of MACE, a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, and all-cause mortality. Unadjusted and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed and included an interaction between MetS and hyperlipidemia (HLD). RESULTS Of the 577,882 patients included, 111,128 (19.2%) exhibited MetS. Patients with MetS more frequently experienced MACE compared with patients without MetS (.3% versus .1%; P < .001). The odds of MACE were greater for patients with MetS versus Non-MetS (odds ratio [OR] 2.87; 95% CI, 2.49-3.32) in the unadjusted analysis. MetS without HLD, MetS with HLD, and Non-MetS with HLD are significantly associated with MACE when compared with those with non-MetS without HLD. CONCLUSIONS Patients with MetS have an increased frequency of cardiac events following bariatric surgery. Future studies should determine if optimization of 1 or more components of MetS or other related co-morbidities reduces the cardiovascular risk for patients.

Abstract
Background Bariatric surgery is a common procedure worldwide for the treatment of severe obesity and associated comorbid conditions but there is a lack of evidence as to medium-term safety and effectiveness outcomes in a United Kingdom setting. Objective To establish the clinical outcomes and adverse events of different bariatric surgical procedures, their impact on quality of life and the effect on comorbidities. Design Prospective observational cohort study. Setting National Health Service secondary care and private practice in Scotland, United Kingdom. Participants Adults (age >16 years) undergoing their first bariatric surgery procedure. Main outcome measures Change in weight, hospital length of stay, readmission and reoperation rate, mortality, diabetes outcomes (HbA1c, medications), quality of life, anxiety, depression. Data sources Patient-reported outcome measures, hospital records, national electronic health records (Scottish Morbidity Record 01, Scottish Care Information Diabetes, National Records Scotland, Prescription Information System). Results Between December 2013 and February 2017, 548 eligible patients were approached and 445 participants were enrolled in the study. Of those, 335 had bariatric surgery and 1 withdrew from the study. Mean age was 46.0 (9.2) years, 74.7% were female and the median body mass index was 46.4 (42.4; 52.0) kg/m2. Weight was available for 128 participants at 3 years: mean change was -19.0% (±14.1) from the operation and -24.2% (±12.8) from the start of the preoperative weight-management programme. One hundred and thirty-nine (41.4%) participants were readmitted to hospital in the same or subsequent 35 months post surgery, 18 (5.4% of the operated cohort) had a reoperation or procedure considered to be related to bariatric surgery gastrointestinal complications or revisions. Fewer than five participants (<2%) died during follow-up. HbA1c was available for 93/182 and diabetes medications for 139/182 participants who had type 2 diabetes prior to surgery; HbA1c mean change was -5.72 (±16.71) (p = 0.001) mmol/mol and 65.5% required no diabetes medications (p < 0.001) at 3 years post surgery. Physical quality of life, available for 101/335 participants, improved in the 3 years post surgery, mean change in Rand 12-item Short Form Survey physical component score 8.32 (±8.95) (p < 0.001); however, there was no change in the prevalence of anxiety or depression. Limitations Due to low numbers of bariatric surgery procedures in Scotland, recruitment was stopped before achieving the intended 2000 participants and follow-up was reduced from 10 years to 3 years. Conclusions Bariatric surgery is a safe and effective treatment for obesity. Patients in Scotland, UK, appear to be older and have higher body mass than international comparators, which may be due to the small number of procedures performed. Future work Intervention studies are required to identify the optimal pre- and post surgery pathway to maximise safety and cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This survey of international experts in obesity management was conducted to achieve consensus on standardized definitions and to identify areas of consensus and non-consensus in metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) to assist in an algorithm of clinical practice guidelines for the management of obesity. METHODS A three-round Delphi survey with 136 statements was conducted by 43 experts in obesity management comprising 26 bariatric surgeons, 4 endoscopists, 8 endocrinologists, 2 nutritionists, 2 counsellors, an internist, and a pediatrician spanning six continents over a 2-day meeting in Hamburg, Germany. To reduce bias, voting was unanimous, and the statements were neither favorable nor unfavorable to the issue voted or evenly balanced between favorable and unfavorable. Consensus was defined as ≥ 70% inter-voter agreement. RESULTS Consensus was reached on all 15 essential definitional and reporting statements, including initial suboptimal clinical response, baseline weight, recurrent weight gain, conversion, and revision surgery. Consensus was reached on 95/121 statements on the type of surgical procedures favoring Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty. Moderate consensus was reached for sleeve gastrectomy single-anastomosis duodenoileostomy and none on the role of intra-gastric balloons. Consensus was reached for MBS in patients > 65 and < 18 years old, with a BMI > 50 kg/m2, and with various obesity-related complications such as type 2 diabetes, liver, and kidney disease. CONCLUSIONS In this survey of 43 multi-disciplinary experts, consensus was reached on standardized definitions and reporting standards applicable to the whole medical community. An algorithm for treating patients with obesity was explored utilizing a thoughtful multimodal approach.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this review, we discuss contemporary and emerging approaches for risk stratification and management of excess adiposity for the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. RECENT FINDINGS Obesity is simultaneously a pandemic-scale disease and major risk factor for the incidence and progression of a wide range of cardiometabolic conditions, but risk stratification and treatment remain clinically challenging. However, sex-, race-, and ethnicity-sensitive anthropometric measures, body composition-focused imaging, and health burden-centric staging systems have emerged as important facilitators of holistic risk prediction. Further, expanding therapeutic approaches, including comprehensive lifestyle programs, anti-obesity pharmacotherapies, device/endoscopy-based interventions, metabolic surgery, and novel healthcare delivery resources offer new empowerment for cardiovascular risk reduction in individuals with obesity. Personalized risk stratification and weight management are central to reducing the lifetime prevalence and impact of cardiovascular disease. Further evidence informing long-term safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of novel approaches targeting obesity are critically needed.

Abstract
The prevalence of overweight and obesity has reached pandemic proportions. Obesity is known to increase the risk for Type 2 diabetes and hypertension, as well as the risk for overt cardiovascular (CV) disease, including myocardial infarction, heart failure, and stroke. The rising prevalence of obesity may counteract the recent advances in primary and secondary prevention of CV disease. Overweight and obesity are common in patients with CV disease; however, cardiologists face several challenges in managing body weight in this population. Many may not consider obesity as a therapeutic target probably because there were no previous highly effective and safe pharmacologic interventions to consider. In addition, they may not have the expertise or resources to implement lifestyle interventions and may have limited familiarity with obesity pharmacotherapy. Moreover, the long-term CV effects of obesity pharmacotherapy remain uncertain due to limited CV outcome data with weight loss as the primary intervention. Although current CV guidelines recognize the importance of weight loss, they primarily focus on lifestyle modifications, with fewer details on strategies to utilize obesity pharmacotherapy and surgery. However, the recent 2022 American Diabetes Association/European Association for the Study of Diabetes consensus on the management of Type 2 diabetes has moved up weight management to the front of the treatment algorithm, by prioritizing the use of pharmacologic interventions such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, which have potent weight-lowering effects, in addition to glucose-lowering effects. This review appraises the current evidence regarding the CV effects of weight-loss interventions. Considering this evidence, practical guidance is provided to assist cardiologists in developing and implementing treatment plans, which may allow optimal weight management while maximizing CV benefits and minimizing side effects to improve the overall well-being of people with CV disease.

Abstract
CONTEXT Large extracellular vesicles (lEVs) enriched for endothelial and blood cell markers are increased in metabolic conditions such as obesity or type 2 diabetes (T2D), actively contribute to the atherosclerotic process, and have been identified as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although bariatric surgery (BS) in individuals with obesity is related to decreased cardiovascular (CV) risk and increased life expectancy, after BS these subjects are still at higher CV risk than the general population. OBJECTIVE We aimed to compare the lEV profiles between individuals with obesity, with or without T2D, before and 1 year after BS, and normal-weight controls. METHODS Prospective longitudinal study with individuals eligible for BS, with or without T2D (T2D and OB groups, respectively) and healthy controls (HC group) matched by age and sex. The concentration and phenotype of lEVs were assessed by flow cytometry. RESULTS The study cohort included 108 individuals (age 48.0 ± 10.5 years; 84.3% females). Before BS, the OB group presented higher concentrations of lEV enriched for endothelial and blood cell biomarkers than the HC group, but lower concentrations than those observed in the T2D group (P < .05). BS resulted in a significant reduction in most of the lEVs enriched for cell-specific markers in both subgroups. lEV differences between OB and T2D groups were no longer observed after BS (P > .05). However, compared with HC group, OB and T2D groups still showed increased concentrations of lEVs enriched for platelet and endothelial cell markers (P < .05). CONCLUSION At 1 year after BS, lEV concentrations remain above the physiological range. These abnormalities might contribute to explaining the increased CV risk after BS and underscore the importance of long-term CV risk factor control in post-BS individuals.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity continues to rise around the world, driving up the need for effective and durable treatments. The field of metabolic/bariatric surgery has grown rapidly in the past 25 years, with observational studies and randomized controlled trials investigating a broad range of long term outcomes. Metabolic/bariatric surgery results in durable and significant weight loss and improvements in comorbid conditions, including type 2 diabetes. Observational studies show that metabolic/bariatric surgery is associated with a lower incidence of cardiovascular events, cancer, and death. Weight regain is a risk in a fraction of patients, and an association exists between metabolic/bariatric surgery and an increased risk of developing substance and alcohol use disorders, suicidal ideation/attempts, and accidental death. Patients need lifelong follow-up to help to reduce the risk of these complications and other nutritional deficiencies. Different surgical procedures have important differences in risks and benefits, and a clear need exists for more long term research about less invasive and emerging procedures. Recent guidelines for the treatment of obesity and metabolic conditions have been updated to reflect this growth in knowledge, with an expansion of eligibility criteria, particularly people with type 2 diabetes and a body mass index between 30.0 and 34.9.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance is linked to atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and stroke, whereas less is known about adipose tissue specific insulin resistance and outcomes after ischemic stroke. This study aimed to estimate the association between adipose tissue specific insulin resistance and prognosis of nondiabetic patients with ischemic stroke. METHODS Patients with ischemic stroke without a history of diabetes mellitus in the Third China National Stroke Registry were included. Adipose tissue specific insulin resistance index (Adipo-IR) was calculated by fasting serum insulin and free fatty acids and categorized into 5 groups according to the quintiles. Outcomes included stroke recurrence (ischemic or hemorrhagic), combined vascular events, all-cause death, and poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale, 3-6) at 12 months after stroke onset. We assessed the association between Adipo-IR and risk of prognosis by multivariable Cox/logistic regression models adjusted for potential covariates. RESULTS Among 2,222 patients, 69.0% were men with a mean age of 62.5 years. At 12 months, 185 (8.3%) patients had recurrent stroke, 193 (8.7%) had combined vascular events, 58 (2.6%) died, and 250 (11.5%) had a poor outcome. Compared with patients with the lowest quintile, patients with the second, third, fourth, fifth quintiles of the Adipo-IR were associated with an increased risk of stroke recurrence (hazard ratio [HR], 1.77; 95% CI, 1.04-3.03; P = 0.04; HR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.30-3.68; P = 0.003; HR, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.06-3.21; P = 0.03; HR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.20-3.71; P = 0.01, respectively) and marginally associated with an increased risk of combined vascular events ( HR, 1.60; 95%CI, 0.97-2.64; P = 0.07; HR, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.17-3.13; P = 0.01; HR, 1.62; 95% CI, 0.96-2.75; P = 0.07; HR, 1.80; 95% CI, 1.05-3.09; P = 0.03, respectively) at 12 months after adjustment for potential covariates. Adipo-IR was not associated with mortality and poor outcome at 12 months. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that adipose tissue specific insulin resistance is independently associated with recurrent stroke and combined vascular events after acute ischemic stroke in nondiabetic patients.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease that affects more than 650 million adults worldwide. Obesity not only is a significant health concern on its own, but predisposes to cardiometabolic comorbidities, including coronary heart disease, dyslipidemia, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers. Lifestyle interventions effectively promote weight loss of 5% to 10%, and pharmacological and surgical interventions even more, with some novel approved drugs inducing up to an average of 25% weight loss. Yet, maintaining weight loss over the long-term remains extremely challenging, and subsequent weight gain is typical. The mechanisms underlying weight regain remain to be fully elucidated. The purpose of this Pennington Biomedical Scientific Symposium was to review and highlight the complex interplay between the physiological, behavioral, and environmental systems controlling energy intake and expenditure. Each of these contributions were further discussed in the context of weight-loss maintenance, and systems-level viewpoints were highlighted to interpret gaps in current approaches. The invited speakers built upon the science of obesity and weight loss to collectively propose future research directions that will aid in revealing the complicated mechanisms involved in the weight-reduced state.

Abstract
Obesity is a prevalent chronic disorder and a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, the evidence of treating obesity for primary prevention of major cardiovascular events is still scarce and controversial. In this review, we provided a comprehensive description of the current evidence in treating obesity regarding cardiovascular protection. Bariatric surgery appears to be the most robust method to reduce events in people without established cardiovascular disease. High compliance to lifestyle interventions can further reduce cardiovascular risk. Concerning pharmacological therapies, a post hoc analysis from SUSTAIN-6 and a meta-analysis from STEP trials suggest that semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, could reduce cardiovascular events in people without established cardiovascular disease. The first study addressed specifically a high-risk population with diabetes and, the second, low- or intermediary-risk individuals without diabetes. Tirzepatide, a novel dual GIP/GLP-1 agonist, although not yet tested in specific cardiovascular outcomes trials, could be an alternative since it induces loss in weight similar to the achieved by bariatric surgery. Therefore, extrapolated data in distinct baseline cardiovascular risk populations suggest that these two drugs could be used in primary prevention with the aim of preventing cardiovascular events, but the grade of this evidence is still low. Specifically designed studies are needed to address this specific topic.

Abstract
Obesity has been long recognized as a risk factor for the development of heart failure, but recent evidence suggests obesity is more typically associated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction as opposed to heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Nevertheless, numerous studies have found that obesity modulates the presentation and progression of HFrEF and may contribute to the development of HFrEF in some patients. Although obesity has definite negative effects in HFrEF patients, the effects of intentional weight loss in HFrEF patients with obesity have been poorly studied.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the important clinical management bottlenecks that contribute to underuse of weight loss surgery (WLS) and assess risk factors for attrition at each of them. METHODS A multistate conceptual model of progression from primary care to WLS was developed and used to study all adults who were seen by a primary care provider (PCP) and eligible for WLS from 2016 to 2017 at a large institution. Outcomes were progression from each state to each subsequent state in the model: PCP visit, endocrine weight management referral, endocrine weight management visit, WLS referral, WLS visit, and WLS. RESULTS Beginning with an initial PCP visit, the respective 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimate for each outcome was 35% (n = 2063), 15.6% (n = 930), 6.3% (n = 400), 4.7% (n = 298), and 1.0% (n = 69) among 5876 eligible patients. Individual providers and clinics differed significantly in their referral practices. Female patients, younger patients, those with higher BMI, and those seen by trainees were more likely to progress. A simulated intervention to increase referrals among PCPs would generate about 49 additional WLS procedures over 3 years. CONCLUSIONS This study discovered novel insights into the specific dynamics underlying low WLS use rates. This methodology permits in silico testing of interventions designed to optimize obesity care prior to implementation.

Abstract
Metabolic comorbidities are common in patients with cardiorenal disease; they can cause atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), speed progression, and adversely affect prognosis. Common comorbidities are Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity/overweight, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and chronic liver disease. The cardiovascular system, kidneys, and liver are linked to many of the same risk factors (e.g. dyslipidaemia, hypertension, tobacco use, diabetes, and central/truncal obesity), and shared metabolic and functional abnormalities lead to damage throughout these organs via overlapping pathophysiological pathways. The COVID-19 pandemic has further complicated the management of cardiometabolic diseases. Obesity, T2DM, CKD, and liver disease are associated with increased risk of poor outcomes of COVID-19 infection, and conversely, COVID-19 can lead to worsening of pre-existing ASCVD. The high rates of these comorbidities highlight the need to improve recognition and treatment of ASCVD in patients with obesity, insulin resistance or T2DM, chronic liver diseases, and CKD and equally, to improve recognition and treatment of these diseases in patients with ASCVD. Strategies to prevent and manage cardiometabolic diseases include lifestyle modification, pharmacotherapy, and surgery. There is a need for more programmes at the societal level to encourage a healthy diet and physical activity. Many pharmacotherapies offer mechanism-based approaches that can target multiple pathophysiological pathways across diseases. These include sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and combined glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide/glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist. Non-surgical and surgical weight loss strategies can improve cardiometabolic disorders in individuals living with obesity. New biomarkers under investigation may help in the early identification of individuals at risk and reveal new treatment targets.

Abstract
Objective Several studies have reported an increase in platelet (PLT) count with chronic inflammation in the presence of obesity. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is an important marker for PLT activity. Our study aims to demonstrate if laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has any effect on PLT, MPV and white blood cells (WBCs). Methods A total of 202 patients undergoing LSG for morbid obesity between January 2019 and March 2020 who completed at least 1 year of follow-up were included in the study. Patients' characteristics and laboratory parameters were recorded preoperatively and were compared in the 6th and 12th months. Results Two hundred and two patients (50% - female) with a mean age of 37.5 ± 12.2 years and mean pre-operative body mass index (BMI) of 43 (34.1-62.5) kg/m2 underwent LSG. BMI regressed to 28.2 ± 4.5 kg/m2 at 1 year after LSG (P < 0.001). The mean PLT count, MPV and WBC during the pre-operative period were 293.2 ± 70.3 103 cells/μL, 10.22 ± 0.9 fL and 7.8 ± 1.9 103 cells/μL, respectively. A significant decrease was seen in mean PLT count, with 257.3 ± 54.2 103cell/μL (P < 0.001) at 1 year post-LSG. The mean MPV was increased at 6 months 10.5 ± 1.2 fL (P < 0.001) and remained unchanged at 1 year 10.3 ± 1.3 fL (P = 0.9). The mean WBC levels were significantly decreased with 6.5 ± 1.7 103 cells/μL (P < 0.001) at 1 year. At the end of the follow-up, weight loss showed no correlation with PLT and MPV (P = 0.42, P = 0.32). Conclusion Our study has shown a significant decrease in circulating PLT and WBC levels while MPV remained unchanged after LSG.

Abstract
Compromised adipose tissue plasticity is a hallmark finding of obesity orchestrated by the intricate interplay between various extracellular matrix components. Collagen6 (COL6) is well characterized in obese visceral adipose tissue (VAT), not much is known about MMP14 which is hypothesized to be the key player in matrix reorganization. Subjects with obesity (BMI ≥40; n = 50) aged 18-60 years undergoing bariatric surgery and their age-matched controls (BMI < 25; n = 30) were included. MMP14, Col6A3 and Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2) mRNA expression was assessed in VAT and their serum levels along with endotrophin were estimated in both groups preoperatively and post-operatively in the obese group. The results were analysed statistically and correlated with anthropometric and glycaemic parameters, namely fasting glucose and insulin, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, HOMA-β and QUICKI. Circulating levels as well as mRNA expression profiling revealed significant differences between the individuals with and without obesity (p < .05), more so in individuals with diabetes and obesity (p < .05). Follow-up serum analysis revealed significantly raised MMP14 (p < .001), with decreased Col6A3, endotrophin and TIMP2 levels (p < .01, p < .001 and p < .01, respectively). A rise in serum MMP14 protein, simultaneous with post-surgical weight loss and decreased serum levels of associated extracellular matrix (ECM) remodellers, suggests its crucial role in modulating obesity-associated ECM fibrosis and pliability of VAT.

Abstract
Obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has become a well-recognized HFpEF subphenotype. Targeting the unfavorable cardiometabolic profile may represent a rational treatment strategy. This study investigated semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that induces significant weight loss in patients with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus and has been associated with improved cardiovascular outcomes. In a mouse model of HFpEF that was caused by advanced aging, female sex, obesity, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, semaglutide, compared with weight loss induced by pair feeding, improved the cardiometabolic profile, cardiac structure, and cardiac function. Mechanistically, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses revealed that semaglutide improved left ventricular cytoskeleton function and endothelial function and restores protective immune responses in visceral adipose tissue. Strikingly, treatment with semaglutide induced a wide array of favorable cardiometabolic effects beyond the effect of weight loss by pair feeding. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists may therefore represent an important novel therapeutic option for treatment of HFpEF, especially when obesity-related.

Clin Nutr ESPEN 2023; 57:58-64. [PMID: 37739709 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnesp.2023.06.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2022] [Revised: 04/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Bariatric Surgery (BS) is a therapeutic option in patients with severe obesity whose non-surgical techniques have failed. No work has previously explored trajectories of weight loss and how long this was maintained. Aim of study is to describe effect of BS and nutritional intervention on body weight trend in patients with obesity. METHODS 792 patients who underwent BS from 1996 to 2021 were included. The Protocol provides Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG), Vertical Gastroplasty (VBG) and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (GB). %Total Weight Loss (%TWL) and %Excess Weight Loss (%EWL) were evaluated in three cohort of patients. Cumulative incidence of clinical goal after surgery was calculated at two and five years after BS. RESULTS At two years of follow-up, average %TWL and %EWL were 31.2% (95% CI = 29.0-33.4%) and 71% (95% CI = 65.4-76.5%) for VBG, 34.7% (95% CI = 33.8-35.6%) and 78.0% (95% CI = 75.9-89.1%) for GB and 33.8% (95% CI = 32.5-35.1%) and 68.8% (95% CI = 66.1-71.6%) for LSG. At two years from surgery the cumulative incidence of clinical goal was 70.7% (95% CI = 59.1-79.1%) for VBG, 86.4% (95% CI = 82.4-89.6%) for GB and 83.4% (95% CI = 76.0-87.1%) for LSG. At five years from surgery, average % TWL and % EWL were 22.5% (95% CI = 10.2-34.8%) and 58.2% (95% CI = 28.4-88.1%) for VBG, 31.8% (95% CI = 30.2-33.3%) and 70.8% (95% CI = 67.5-74.1%) for GB and 29.5% (95% CI = 26.2-32.8%) and 62.0% (95% CI = 53.4-70.6%) for LSG respectively. At five years after having reached clinical goal the share of people who were able to maintain their weight was 49.5% (95% CI = 30.8-79.6%) for VBG, 69.5% (95% CI = 58.3-82.8%) for GB and 55.9% (95% CI = 42.1-74.3%) for LSG. The median time of clinical goal maintaining was 4.8 years for VBG (95% CI lower limit = 4.1), 6.6 years for GB (95% CI lower limit = 6.2) and 5.3 years for LSG (95% CI lower limit = 4.8). CONCLUSIONS Our work confirm effectiveness of BS in patients with obesity and show that who do not reach clinical goal within 2 years, hardly will reach it later and suggest necessity for a medium and long-term follow-up to prevent weight regain.

Effect of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on mobilization of site-specific body adipose depots: a prospective cohort study. Int J Surg 2023; 109:3013-3020. [PMID: 37352520 PMCID: PMC10583911 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000000573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Effect of bariatric surgery on mobilization of site-specific body adipose depots is not well investigated. Herein, the authors conducted a prospective cohort study to assess whether bariatric surgery can differentially affect specific fat storage pools and to further investigate correlations between site-specific fat mobilization and clinical outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this single-centre prospective cohort study, 49 participants underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) from 24 May 2022 to 20 October 2022 and underwent MRI to estimate subcutaneous fat area, visceral fat area (VFA), hepatic and pancreatic proton density fat fraction (PDFF) at baseline and 3 months after surgery. The protocol for this study was registered on clinicaltrials.gov. RESULTS Among 49 patients who met all inclusion criteria, the median [interquartile range (IQR)] age was 31.0 (23.0-37.0) years, the median (IQR) BMI was 38.1 (33.7-42.2) kg/m 2 and 36.7% were male. Median (IQR) percentage hepatic PDFF loss was the greatest after bariatric surgery at 68.8% (47.3-79.7%), followed by percentage pancreatic PDFF loss at 51.2% (37.0-62.1%), percentage VFA loss at 36.0% (30.0-42.4%), and percentage subcutaneous fat area loss at 22.7% (17.2-32.4%) ( P <0.001). By calculating Pearson correlation coefficient and partial correlation coefficient, the positive correlations were confirmed between change in VFA and change in glycated haemoglobin ( r =0.394, P =0.028; partial r =0.428, P =0.042) and between change in hepatic PDFF and change in homoeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance ( r =0.385, P =0.025; partial r =0.403, P =0.046). CONCLUSIONS LSG preferentially mobilized hepatic fat, followed by pancreatic fat and visceral adipose tissue, while subcutaneous adipose tissue was mobilized to the least extent. Reduction in visceral adipose tissue and hepatic fat is independently associated with the improvement of glucose metabolism after LSG.
