Abstract
Background and aims: EndoBarrier is a 60cm duodenal-jejunal bypass liner endoscopically implanted for up to one year and designed to mimic the bypass part of roux-en-Y bariatric surgery. There is uncertainty concerning the extent to which improvements associated with EndoBarrier treatment are sus-tained once the liner has been removed. We aimed therefore to establish an EndoBarrier service for refractory diabesity and to continue to monitor the people with diabetes after EndoBarrier removal.
Methods: Between October 2014 and November 2017, we implanted 62 EndoBarriers in our NHS service. All had been removed by November 2018. Outcomes were monitored in a registry.
Results: As of November 2021, all patients reached three years after EndoBarrier removal and of these 43/62 (69%) (mean±SD age 51.6 ± 7.6 years, 55.8% male, 55.8% white ethnicity, median [IQR] diabetes duration 14.6 [8 – 21] years, 62.8% insulin-treated, mean±SD BMI 41.7±7.3 kg/m2) attended follow-up. In those who attended, during EndoBarrier implantation mean±SD HbA1c fell by 20.6±19.6 mmol/mol from 76.3±19.2 to 55.7±11.1 mmol/mol (p<0.001) (by 1.9±1.8% from 9.1±1.8% to 7.2±1.0% [p<0.001]), weight fell by 17.4±9.1 kg from 123.3±30.0 kg to 105.9±30.8 kg (p<0.001), BMI fell from 41.7±7.3 to 35.6±7.7 kg/m2 (p<0.001), systolic blood pressure from 138.7±14.4 to 125.4±14.7 mmHg (p<0.001), cholesterol from 4.6±1.0 to 3.7±0.7mmol/L (p<0.001), and serum alanine aminotransferase from 30.8±17.2 to 19.3±11.2 U/L (p<0.001). In those taking insulin median (IQR) total daily insulin dose reduced from 114 (54–180) to 20 (0–65) units (n=27, p<0.001); 10/27 (37%) insulin-treated people were able to discontinue insulin. Three years after EndoBarrier removal 33/43 (77%) maintained most of the improvement achieved with EndoBarrier whilst 10/43(23%) reverted to baseline. Of those deteriorating 9/10(90%) had depression and/or bereavement and/or major health problems/disability. 10/62(16%) required early Endo-Barrier removal for adverse events or symptoms; all 10 fully recovered after removal and most derived significant benefit.
Conclusions: Our data demonstrate that EndoBarrier is highly effective in people with refractory diabesity, with mainte-nance of significant improvement three years after removal in 77% of cases.

Abstract
Aims: EndoBarrier is a 60 cm duodenal–jejunal bypass liner endoscopically implanted for up to one year. It mimics the bypass part of Roux-en-Y bariatric surgery and reduces weight and HbA1c while it is in situ. We aimed to assess the extent to which these improvements are sustained in people with diabetes in the year following removal.Methods: Between October 2014 and November 2017 we implanted 62 EndoBarriers in an NHS service with all removed by November 2018. Outcomes were monitored in a registry.Results: By November 2019, 46/62 (72%) (mean±SD age 51.5±7.7 years, 52% male, 54.3% white ethnicity, median (IQR) diabetes duration 14.5 (8–20) years, 67.4% insulin-treated and mean±SD body mass index (BMI) 41.6±7.1 kg/m2) had attended and 16/62 (28%) did not attend their one-year post-EndoBarrier follow-up appointment. In those who attended, during EndoBarrier implantation mean±SD HbA1c fell by 21.1±19.6 mmol/mol from 77.1±20.0 to 56.0±11.2 mmol/mol (p<0.001) (by 1.9±1.8% from 9.2±1.8% to 7.3±1.0% (p<0.001)), weight fell by 17.2±8.8 kg from 121.9±29.4 kg to 104.7±30.1 kg (p<0.001), BMI fell from 41.6±7.5 to 35.5±7.5 kg/m2 (p<0.001), systolic blood pressure from 139.0±14.0 to 126.0±14.6 mmHg (p<0.001) and serum alanine aminotransferase from 30.0±16.9 to 18.8±11.0 U/L (p<0.001). Median (IQR) total daily insulin dose reduced from 104 (54–162) to 30 (0–62) units (n=31, p<0.001); 10/31 (32%) insulin-treated people with diabetes were able to discontinue insulin. One year post-EndoBarrier, 18/46 (39%) demonstrated fully sustained improvement, 18/46 (39%) partially sustained improvement and 10/46 (22%) reverted to baseline. Of those deteriorating, 9/10 (90%) had depression and/or bereavement; they also had less fall in weight and HbA1c during EndoBarrier treatment. In the 16/62 (28%) who did not attend follow-up, reasons for non-attendance were too far to travel (25%), need to take time off work (6.3%), severe depression (6.3%) and death (6.3%). In 56.3% of cases no reason was given.Conclusion: Our data demonstrate that EndoBarrier is highly effective in people with long-standing poorly controlled type 2 diabetes and obesity, with maintenance of significant improvement one year after removal in 78% of cases for whom data were available. As an endoscopic procedure it is relatively simple and non-invasive and it deserves further investigation.

Abstract
Aims: EndoBarrier is a 60 cm proximal intestinal liner, endoscopically implanted for up to 1 year, designed to mimic the bypass aspect of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. We aimed to assess its safety and efficacy in patients with advanced diabesity.Methods: Since October 2014 we have implanted 62 Endo-Barriers in our NHS service. By November 2018 all were explanted. Outcomes were monitored in a registry.Results: In 61 of the 62 patients (98.4%) (age 51.4±7.2 years, 54.1% male, 57.4% Europid, diabetes duration 12.0 (8.0–19.5) years, 57.4% insulin-treated, BMI 41.9±7.4 kg/m2) with implant and explant data, mean±SD HbA1c fell by 23.7±21.4 mmol/mol from 80.2±22.5 to 56.5±11.5 mmol/mol (p<0.001), weight fell by 15.9±8.5 kg from 122.6±27.9 to 106.7±28.9 kg (p<0.001), systolic blood pressure from 138.5±15.0 to 125.8±14.6 mmHg (p<0.001), cholesterol from 4.7±1.4 to 3.9±0.9 mmol/L (p<0.001) and alanine aminotransferase (a marker for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) from 33.2±19.8 to 19.5±11.4 U/L (p<0.001). In the 35 insulin-treated patients, median (IQR) insulin dose reduced from 100 (54–140) to 40 (0–70) units (p<0.001), with 10/35 (28.6%) discontinuing insulin. There were significant falls (UKPDS Risk Engine v2) in the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke, suggesting that EndoBarrier treatment in 100 such patients could prevent 8 events of CHD or stroke and save 6 lives over the 10 years. Ten of the 62 patients (16%) required early removal (4 for gastrointestinal haemorrhage, 2 for liver abscess, 1 for another intra-abdominal abscess and 3 for gastrointestinal symptoms). All made a full recovery following device removal and most derived benefit despite early removal.Conclusion: EndoBarrier was highly effective in this setting in patients with advanced diabetes and obesity. Given the high cardiovascular and microvascular risk of these patients, benefits might outweigh risks. As an endoscopic procedure it is relatively simple and non-invasive. Early removal rates require monitoring and there needs to be increased focus on preventing complications but, on balance, EndoBarrier deserves further investigation as a potential treatment for wider use.

Abstract
EndoBarrier®, a 60 cm endoscopically implanted proximal intestinal liner, reduces weight and HbA1c over 1 year. We report the outcomes of the first 12 patients who completed 6 months post EndoBarrier removal in the first NHS EndoBarrier service. All patients were obese (body mass index 41.7±9.8 kg/m2) with diabetes for 10–25 years and 75% were on insulin therapy. All patients (age 52.4±9.3 years) were advised to institute behavioural changes during the implant period (1 year) and maintain them thereafter. Implantation of EndoBarrier for 1 year reduced weight (17.6±8.9 kg, p<0.001), HbA1c (26.7±20.8 mmol/mol, 2.4±1.9%, p=0.001), systolic blood pressure (14.1±16.1 mmHg, p=0.011) and median total daily insulin dose from 104 to 48 Units/day (p=0.024) (n=9). Six months post EndoBarrier removal, 75% of patients sustained the metabolic improvement achieved with EndoBarrier; insulin dose requirement continued to fall and four of the nine insulin-treated patients discontinued insulin. Of the three patients whose weight/glycaemic control worsened, two had depression and one became immobile after explantation due to ill health unrelated to EndoBarrier treatment. Most (93.8%) of our patients stated that they would be extremely likely to recommend our service to friends and family. These data are encouraging for wider establishment of NHS EndoBarrier services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Antibodies to infliximab reduce serum infliximab with loss of clinical benefit, but undetectable trough serum concentrations of infliximab may occur without antibody formation. The relationship between trough serum infliximab and clinical outcomes was evaluated in acute ulcerative colitis. METHODS In a cohort of 115 patients with ulcerative colitis treated with three-dose induction followed by scheduled maintenance infliximab, rates of clinical remission, colectomy, antibodies to infliximab and trough serum infliximab were determined. RESULTS Rates of remission were 32% at week 10 and 37% at week 54. Colectomy occurred in 40% of patients, at a median of 5.3 (IQR 1.9-12.1) months. Detectable trough serum infliximab was present in 39% of patients and, among patients with undetectable infliximab, 41% were antibody positive and 20% were antibody negative. For antibody-positive and antibody-negative patients, rates of remission (18% vs 14%), endoscopic improvement (25% vs 35%) and colectomy (52% vs 59%) were not different. A detectable serum infliximab was associated with higher rates of remission (69% vs 15%; p<0.001) and endoscopic improvement (76% vs 28%, p<0.001). An undetectable serum infliximab predicted an increased risk for colectomy (55% vs 7%, OR 9.3; 95% CI 2.9 to 29.9; p<0.001). Concurrent immunosuppression was not associated with clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS For patients with ulcerative colitis treated with infliximab, a detectable trough serum infliximab predicts clinical remission, endoscopic improvement and a lower risk for colectomy. An undetectable trough serum infliximab, irrespective of antibody status, is associated with less favourable outcomes.
