The role of anxiety and depression in understanding the relationship between coping and weight loss 24 months after bariatric surgery. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2024; 20:304-314. [PMID: 38001014 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2023.10.004] [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: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between coping (i.e., how a person deals with stress) and weight loss after bariatric surgery is relatively inconsistent. Anxiety and depression may contribute to the lack of consistent findings in this area. It is possible that coping, including interpersonal, intrapersonal, and maladaptive coping, predicts weight loss among individuals with higher levels of anxiety or depression but not among those with lower levels of anxiety and depression. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the moderating role of anxiety and depression on the association between coping and weight loss in patients 24 months after bariatric surgery. SETTING University Hospital, West Virginia, U.S.A. METHODS Participants included 841 patients who underwent bariatric surgery, 396 of whom had 24-month weight loss data (mean age, 43.21 yr [SD, ±11.40 yr]). We ran 3 moderation models to test whether the relationship between various coping styles and postoperative weight loss was moderated by anxiety and depression symptoms. RESULTS There was a statistically significant interaction between anxiety and depression on the association between interpersonal coping and percent excess weight loss (%EWL). Anxiety and depression also moderated the relationship between maladaptive coping and %EWL. Anxiety and depression did not moderate the association between intrapersonal coping and %EWL, but intrapersonal coping positively predicted %EWL at 24 months after bariatric surgery. CONCLUSIONS Maladaptive coping predicted less weight loss for patients with high levels of anxiety and/or depression. Interpersonal coping predicted more weight loss for patients with low levels of anxiety and/or depression. Clinicians should take patient levels of anxiety and depression into account when making recommendations to promote weight loss among patients pursuing bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is the most effective obesity treatment. As a chronic and progressive disease, weight loss response to surgery will vary individually. Thus, insufficient weight loss or regain can happen after surgery, but they lack a standard definition. There are different mechanisms underlying weight regain and/or insufficient weight loss, such as genetics, maladaptive eating behaviors, and the inadequate choice of index operations, among others. Patients with weight regain or insufficient weight loss should be submitted to an individualized and comprehensive evaluation by a multidisciplinary team. This may help identify the causes and direct the appropriate treatment individually. Options for patients with insufficient weight loss and/or weight regain following bariatric surgery include repair of postoperative complications, conversion into another operation, endoscopic therapies with inconsistent outcomes, and dietary/behavioral counseling. Revision and conversion surgeries have higher complication rates than primary operations. Although there is no standard pharmacological regimen for that indication, the new agents seem efficient and safe to promote the loss of the regained weight and even be adjunctive to selected patients before they reach the plateau. This review aims to summarize the knowledge of the best approach for patients with weight regain/insufficient weight loss and suggests an algorithm to customize the approach and therapeutic options after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Although bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment of severe obesity, a proportion of patients experience clinically significant weight regain (WR) with further out from surgery. The purpose of this review is to summarize the prevalence, predictors, and causes of weight regain. RECENT FINDINGS Estimating the prevalence of WR is limited by a lack of consensus on its definition. While anatomic failures such as dilated gastric fundus after sleeve gastrectomy and gastro-gastric fistula after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass can lead to WR, the most common causes appear to be dysregulated/maladaptive eating behaviors, lifestyle factors, and physiological compensatory mechanisms. To date, dietary, supportive, behavioral, and exercise interventions have not demonstrated a clinically meaningful impact on WR, and there is limited evidence for pharmacotherapy. Future studies should be aimed at better defining WR to begin to understand the etiologies. Additionally, there is a need for non-surgical interventions with demonstrated efficacy in rigorous randomized controlled trials for the prevention and reversal of WR after bariatric surgery.

Obesity in South and Southeast Asia-A new consensus on care and management. Obes Rev 2023; 24:e13520. [PMID: 36453081 PMCID: PMC10078503 DOI: 10.1111/obr.13520] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease in which the abnormal or excessive accumulation of body fat leads to impaired health and increased risk of mortality and chronic health complications. Prevalence of obesity is rising rapidly in South and Southeast Asia, with potentially serious consequences for local economies, healthcare systems, and quality of life. Our group of obesity specialists from Bangladesh, Brunei Darussalam, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Viet Nam undertook to develop consensus recommendations for management and care of adults and children with obesity in South and Southeast Asia. To this end, we identified and researched 12 clinical questions related to obesity. These questions address the optimal approaches for identifying and staging obesity, treatment (lifestyle, behavioral, pharmacologic, and surgical options) and maintenance of reduced weight, as well as issues related to weight stigma and patient engagement in the clinical setting. We achieved consensus on 42 clinical recommendations that address these questions. An algorithm describing obesity care is presented, keyed to the various consensus recommendations.

Evaluation of High-Interval Education to Improve Outcomes for Bariatric Patients With Health Disparities. Gastroenterol Nurs 2023; 46:54-62. [PMID: 36630220 DOI: 10.1097/sga.0000000000000695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
A correlation of health disparities, socioeconomic barriers, and health literacy were hypothesized as causative factors of poor weight loss, weight regain, and loss to clinical follow-up in postbariatric patients. This study explored nurse practitioner-led interventions to address health disparities and improve outcomes. This pilot project evaluated 3-month weights of an intervention cohort as compared with a retrospective cohort. The intervention cohort received a weekly educational phone call from the clinical nurse practitioner. Quantitative data based on 3-month weights reveal an average excess body weight percentage lost at the 3-month postoperative clinical visit (36.54 ± 0.11, p = .2929) in the retrospective cohort ( n = 30) as compared with the intervention cohort ( n = 30; 33.46 ± 0.11, p = .2929). Participants responding to the barriers screening tool did not correspond with the actual needs represented by the population. Food access and transportation were leading factors affecting weight loss. This project revealed implications including the need for development of bariatric-specific social needs assessments, the need to explore telehealth as a modality to improve patient education, the need to modify education to overcome deficits in health literacy. Findings also validate the role of the nurse practitioner as a leader of multidisciplinary care teams.

Early Postoperative Exposure to High-Fat Diet Does Not Increase Long-Term Weight Loss or Fat Avoidance After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass in Rats. Front Nutr 2022; 9:834854. [PMID: 35495960 PMCID: PMC9044042 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.834854] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Bariatric surgery alters food preferences in rats and reportedly decreases desire to consume high-fat high-sugar food in humans. The aim of this study was to investigate whether early post-operative exposure to high-fat food could increase body weight loss after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) by triggering fat avoidance. Methods Male Wistar rats underwent either RYGB (n = 15) or sham-operations (n = 16). Preoperatively a standardized 4-choice cafeteria diet [dietary options: low-fat/low-sugar (LFLS), low-fat/high-sugar (LFHS), high-fat/low-sugar (HFLS), high-fat/high-sugar (HFHS)] was offered. First, each option was available for 4 days, thereafter rats were offered the 4 options simultaneously for 3 days preoperatively. Post-surgery, 8 rats in the RYGB- and 8 in the sham-group were exposed to a high-fat content diet (Oatmeal + 30% lard, OM+L) for 10 days, while 7 RYGB rats and 8 sham-rats received OM alone. From the 11th postoperative day, the 4-choice cafeteria diet was reintroduced for 55-days. The intake of all available food items, macronutrients and body weight changes were monitored over 8 weeks. Main outcomes were long-term body-weight and daily change in relative caloric intake during the postoperative cafeteria period compared to the preoperative cafeteria. Results During the first 12 days of postoperative cafeteria access, RYGB-rats exposed to OM+L had a higher mean caloric intake per day than RYGB rats exposed to OM alone (Δ10 kCal, Padj = 0.004), but this difference between the RYGB groups disappeared thereafter. Consequently, in the last 33 days of the postoperative cafeteria diet, the mean body weight of the RYGB+OM+L group was higher compared to RYGB+OM (Δ51 g, Padj < 0.001). RYGB rats, independently from the nutritional intervention, presented a progressive decrease in daily consumption of calories from fat and increased their daily energy intake mainly from non-sugar carbohydrates. No such differences were detected in sham-operated controls exposed to low- or high fat postoperative interventions. Conclusion A progressive decrease in daily fat intake over time was observed after RYGB, independently from the nutritional intervention. This finding confirms that macronutrient preferences undergo progressive changes over time after RYGB and supports the role of ingestive adaptation and learning. Early postoperative exposure to high-fat food failed to accentuate fat avoidance and did not lead to superior weight loss in the long-term.

Abstract
CONTEXT Obesity is a chronic disease that is difficult to manage without holistic therapy. The therapeutic armamentarium for obesity primarily consists of 4 forms of therapy: lifestyle modification (ie, diet and exercise), cognitive behavioral therapy, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Evidence was consolidated from randomized controlled trials, observational studies, and meta-analyses. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS After 2 years, lifestyle interventions can facilitate weight loss that equates to ~5%. Even though lifestyle interventions are plagued by weight regain, they can have substantial effects on type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk. Although 10-year percentage excess weight loss can surpass 50% after bariatric surgery, weight regain is likely. To mitigate weight regain, instituting a multifactorial maintenance program is imperative. Such a program can integrate diet, exercise, and pharmacotherapy. Moreover, behavioral therapy can complement a maintenance program well. CONCLUSIONS Obesity is best managed by a multidisciplinary clinical team that integrates diet, exercise, and pharmacotherapy. Bariatric surgery is needed to manage type 2 diabetes and obesity in select patients.

Behavioral weight management interventions in metabolic and bariatric surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis investigating optimal delivery timing. Obes Rev 2021; 22:e13168. [PMID: 33403754 DOI: 10.1111/obr.13168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2020] [Revised: 10/12/2020] [Accepted: 10/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) yields unprecedented clinical outcomes, though variability is high in weight change and health benefits. Behavioral weight management (BWM) interventions may optimize MBS outcomes. However, there is a lack of an evidence base to inform their use in practice, particularly regarding optimal delivery timing. This paper evaluated the efficacy of BWM conducted pre- versus post- versus pre- and post-MBS. The review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement and included pre- and/or post-operative BWM interventions in adults reporting anthropometric and/or body composition data. Thirty-six studies (2,919 participants) were included. Post-operative BWM yielded greater decreases in weight (standardized mean difference [SMD] = -0.41; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.766 to -0.049, p < 0.05; I2 = 93.5%) and body mass index (SMD = -0.60; 95% CI: -0.913 to -0.289, p < 0.001; I2 = 87.8%) relative to comparators. There was no effect of BWM delivered pre- or joint pre- and post-operatively. The risk of selection and performance bias was generally high. Delivering BWM after MBS appears to confer the most benefits on weight, though there was high variability in study characteristics and risk of bias across trials. This provides insight into the type of support that should be considered post-operatively.

Weight Regain and Insufficient Weight Loss After Bariatric Surgery: Definitions, Prevalence, Mechanisms, Predictors, Prevention and Management Strategies, and Knowledge Gaps-a Scoping Review. Obes Surg 2021; 31:1755-1766.

Abstract
Some patients experience weight regain (WR) or insufficient weight loss (IWL) after bariatric surgery (BS). We undertook a scoping review of WR and IWL after BS. We searched electronic databases for studies addressing the definitions, prevalence, mechanisms, clinical significance, preoperative predictors, and preventive and treatment approaches including behavioral, pharmacological, and surgical management strategies of WR and IWL. Many definitions exist for WR, less so for IWL, resulting in inconsistencies in the reported prevalence of these two conditions. Mechanisms and preoperative predictors contributing to WR are complex and multifactorial. A range of the current knowledge gaps are identified and questions that need to be addressed are outlined. Therefore, there is an urgent need to address these knowledge gaps for a better evidence base that would guide patient counseling, selection, and lead to improved outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite bariatric surgery showing significant weight loss trajectories for many patients, a substantial proportion regain weight after the first year following surgery. The addition of telemedicine to standard care could support patients with engaging in a more active lifestyle and thus improve clinical outcomes. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to evaluate a telemedicine intervention program dedicated to the promotion of physical activity including digital devices, teleconsultation, and telemonitoring the first 6 months following bariatric surgery. METHODS This study employed a mixed methods design based on an open-label randomized controlled trial. Patients were included during the first week after bariatric surgery; then, they were randomized into 2 intervention groups: The TelePhys group received a monthly telemedicine consultation focusing on physical activity coaching, while the TeleDiet group received a monthly telemedicine consultation involving diet coaching. Data were collected using a watch pedometer and body weight scale, both of which were connected wirelessly. The primary outcome was the difference between the 2 groups in the mean numbers of steps at the first and sixth postoperative months. Weight change was also evaluated, and focus groups and interviews were conducted to enrich the results and capture perceptions of the telemedicine provided. RESULTS Among the 90 patients (mean age 40.6, SD 10.4 years; 73/90, 81% women; 62/90, 69% gastric bypass), 70 completed the study until the sixth month (n=38 TelePhys; n=32 TeleDiet), and 18 participants agreed to be interviewed (n=8 Telephys; n=10 TeleDiet). An increase in the mean number of steps between the first and sixth months was found in both groups, but this change was significant only in the TeleDiet group (P=.01). No difference was found when comparing both intervention groups. Interviewed participants reported having appreciated the teleconsultations, as the individualized tailored counseling helped them to make better choices about behaviors that could increase their likelihood of a daily life in better health. Weight loss followed by social factors (such as social support) were identified as the main facilitators to physical activity. Family responsibilities, professional constraints as well as poor urban policies promoting physical activity, and lack of accessibility to sport infrastructure were their major barriers to postoperative lifestyle adherence. CONCLUSIONS Our study did not show any difference in mobility recovery after bariatric surgery related to a telemedicine intervention dedicated to physical activity. The early postoperative timing for our intervention may explain the null findings. eHealth interventions aiming to change behaviors and carried out by clinicians require support from structured public health policies that tackle patients' obesogenic environment in order to be efficient in their struggle against sedentary lifestyle-related pathologies. Further research will need to focus on long-term interventions. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02716480, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02716480.

Abstract
Introduction Unhealthy lifestyles may hinder bariatric surgery outcomes. This non-randomized controlled study aimed to evaluate the effects of an integrated post-operative exercise-based educational and motivational program in improving behaviors, quality of life, anthropometric features, cardiorespiratory and physical fitness in bariatric patients respect to the only surgical intervention. Methods A group of adult sedentary bariatric patients chose to attend a 12-month exercise program integrated with diet education and motivational support, or to receive usual care. Dietary habits, binge eating disorder, physical activity, obesity-related quality of life, Body Mass Index, waist and hip circumference, VO2max, strength and flexibility were assessed at the start and at the end of the study in both groups. Results On a total of 82 patients enrolled, follow-up measures were obtained from 28 (85.7% females, mean age 38.2±8.7) and 42 (71.4% females, mean age 40.2±9.5) patients included in the intervention and control group, respectively. All the behavioral and physical outcomes improved significantly in the participants to the intervention, while the control group showed lesser changes, especially regarding quality of life and physical fitness. Conclusions Notwithstanding the self-selection, these results suggest that a timely postoperative behavioral multidisciplinary program for bariatric patients may be effective in establishing healthy behaviors which can lead to better surgery outcomes.

Abstract
This review addresses the interplay between obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular diseases. It is proposed that obesity, generally defined by an excess of body fat causing prejudice to health, can no longer be evaluated solely by the body mass index (expressed in kg/m2) because it represents a heterogeneous entity. For instance, several cardiometabolic imaging studies have shown that some individuals who have a normal weight or who are overweight are at high risk if they have an excess of visceral adipose tissue-a condition often accompanied by accumulation of fat in normally lean tissues (ectopic fat deposition in liver, heart, skeletal muscle, etc). On the other hand, individuals who are overweight or obese can nevertheless be at much lower risk than expected when faced with excess energy intake if they have the ability to expand their subcutaneous adipose tissue mass, particularly in the gluteal-femoral area. Hence, excessive amounts of visceral adipose tissue and of ectopic fat largely define the cardiovascular disease risk of overweight and moderate obesity. There is also a rapidly expanding subgroup of patients characterized by a high accumulation of body fat (severe obesity). Severe obesity is characterized by specific additional cardiovascular health issues that should receive attention. Because of the difficulties of normalizing body fat content in patients with severe obesity, more aggressive treatments have been studied in this subgroup of individuals such as obesity surgery, also referred to as metabolic surgery. On the basis of the above, we propose that we should refer to obesities rather than obesity.

Preoperative and post-operative psychosocial interventions for bariatric surgery patients: A systematic review. Obes Rev 2020; 21:e12926.

Abstract
Psychosocial interventions are increasingly being utilized to help patients prepare for, and adjust to changes following, bariatric surgery in order to optimize psychosocial adjustment and weight loss. The current systematic review examined the impact of preoperative and post-operative psychosocial interventions with a behavioural and/or cognitive focus on weight, dietary behaviours, eating pathology, lifestyle behaviours, and psychological functioning. A PsycINFO and Medline search of publications was conducted in March 2019. Two authors assessed retrieved titles and abstracts to determine topic relevance and rated the quality of included studies using a validated checklist. Forty-four articles (representing 36 studies) met the study inclusion criteria. The current evidence is strongest for the impact of psychosocial interventions, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, on eating behaviours (eg, binge eating and emotional eating) and psychological functioning (eg, quality of life, depression, and anxiety). The evidence for the impact of psychosocial interventions on weight loss, dietary behaviours (eg, dietary intake), and lifestyle behaviours (eg, physical activity) is relatively weak and mixed. Psychosocial interventions can improve eating pathology and psychosocial functioning among bariatric patients, and the optimal time to initiate treatment appears to be early in the post-operative period before significant problematic eating behaviours and weight regain occur.

Abstract
Background Formal psychosocial support programs after weight-loss surgery are limited in scope and availability. Objective This randomized pilot study evaluated the feasibility of a postoperative behavioral intervention program. Materials and methods Postoperative weight-loss surgery patients (N = 50) were recruited from February 2017–July 2017 and randomized to a four-month behavioral program or usual care wait-list. Outcomes evaluated in addition to feasibility included health-related quality of life (Short Form -36), psychosocial functioning and adherence. Secondary outcomes included within-group changes for each outcome. Results Out of eight possible sessions, intervention participants attended a mean of 4.2 sessions. Intervention group participants experienced greater improvements in the social functioning domain of health-related quality of life compared to usual care. Self-reported dietary adherence in the intervention group remained stable, while usual care group dietary adherence declined. Within the intervention group, participants also reported gains in the physical function, pain and general health aspects of quality life from baseline to post-treatment. No differences in weight, mood or other eating behaviors (e.g., loss of control, emotional eating) were evident between groups. Conclusion Though participation in a postoperative behavioral intervention varied, the program helped participants to maintain aspects of quality of life and self-reported adherence to dietary recommendations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bariatric surgery leads to significant weight loss but the results vary. Application of dietary principles like portion-controlled eating leads to greater weight loss and fewer complications. AIMS To evaluate the improvement in weight loss outcomes by incorporating portion-controlled eating behavior in postbariatric patients. METHODS All patients who underwent bariatric surgery from January 2012 to December 2013 were included in the study. Portion-controlled eating behavior was incorporated in the post-bariatric nutritional protocol. Their demographic, preoperative, and postoperative data were prospectively maintained on Microsoft Office Excel and analyzed statistically. RESULTS Three hundred and seventy-two (89.6%) underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), while 43 (10.4%) underwent laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). In the LSG group, lowest (nadir) BMI was 28.99 ± 5.6 kg/m2 and % Excess weight loss (EWL) was 87.3 ± 27.2%, achieved between 1 and 2 years. In the RYGB group, lowest (nadir) BMI was 27.5 ± 12.09 kg/m and % EWL was 94.32 ± 33.12%. Surgical failure (less than 50% EWL) were 10 (3.27%) in the LSG group and 1 (3%) in the RYGB group. There were no leaks reported in our study. CONCLUSION Our study highlights the importance of postoperative nutritional interventions like portion-controlled eating for successful bariatric outcome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although bariatric surgery is the most effective and durable treatment for obesity, weight regain is common. AREAS COVERED In this article, we have critically reviewed data from retrospective and prospective studies pertaining to prevalence and predictors of weight regain following bariatric surgery, as well as the utility of behavioral and pharmacotherapeutic interventions to address post-surgical weight regain. EXPERT COMMENTARY The initial step in management of post-surgical weight regain is a comprehensive evaluation of the patient including a thorough assessment of contributing factors. While lifestyle interventions including diet, exercise and behavior modification are fundamental, they have limited efficacy which can be enhanced by pharmacotherapy. The optimal time to commence pharmacotherapy may be at weight plateau to maximize weight loss outcomes after bariatric surgery. Further prospective studies are needed to determine the best combination of behavioral and pharmacological therapies, and also the timing of pharmacotherapeutic intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) still remains the gold standard in bariatric surgery. However, no consensus exists on the optimal limb lengths to induce maximum weight reduction. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of a longer alimentary limb (AL) length on weight reduction after RYGB. METHODS A retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database of patients who underwent a primary laparoscopic RYGB between January 2001 and March 2011 was performed. Patients received a short AL (SAL; 100 cm) or a long AL (LAL; 150 cm). Primary outcome was weight loss, and secondary outcomes were short- and long-term complication rates. RESULTS A total of 768 patients received a RYGB during the study period. Of these, 730 consecutive patients were included for long-term analysis and had a mean follow-up (FU) of 37 ± 26 [range 0-120] months; 360 (47 %) patients received a SAL RYGB. Overall %TBWL was 33 ± 9 % after 2 years (FU 74 %) and 28 ± 12 % after 5 years (FU 20 %). No significant differences in %TBWL were found between SAL RYGB and LAL RYGB during the study period. The 30-day mortality rate was 0.13, 9 % overall short-term complication rate and 19 % cumulative long-term complication rate. No differences in complications were found between SAL and LAL RYGB patients. CONCLUSION Lengthening of the alimentary limb from 100 to 150 cm did not affect post-RYGB weight loss. Overall complication rates were low and comparable in this series of RYGB patients.
