Adaptive thermogenesis, at the level of resting energy expenditure, after diet alone or diet plus bariatric surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Weight-loss modality does not seem to modulate the magnitude of AT, at the level of REE. The greater the AT, at the level of REE, the greater the drive to eat following weight loss.PMID:38664956 | DOI:10.1002/oby.24031 (Source: Obesity)

Multimodal approach utilising a weight management programme prior to bariatric surgery in patients with BMI ≥50 kg/m2: A propensity score matching retrospective cohort study
SummaryWe evaluated preoperative weight loss and days from initial consult to surgery in patients with BMI ≥50 kg/m2 who were and were not enrolled in medical weight management (MWM) prior to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. We retrospectively identified patients with BMI ≥50 kg/m2 who had primary sleeve gastrectomy between 2014 and 2019 at two bariatric surgery centres in our healthcare system. Patients presenting after 2017 that received preoperative MWM (n = 28) were compared to a historical cohort of non-MWM patients (n = 118) presenting prior to programme initiation in 2017 on preoperative percent tota...

Novel subtype of obesity influencing the outcomes of sleeve gastrectomy: Familial aggregation of obesity

Presurgery health influences outcomes following vertical sleeve gastrectomy in adolescents

Postoperative delayed massive bleeding in gastric cancer: a case report
ConclusionCurrently, there are no specific guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of pseudoaneurysms in the abdominal cavity resulting from gastric cancer surgery. Early digital subtraction angiography examination should be performed to assist in formulating treatment plans. Early diagnosis and treatment contribute to an improved overall success rate of rescue interventions. (Source: Journal of Medical Case Reports)

Don't Fear the Bleed: Assessing Postoperative Bleeding Incidence After Instituting a Standardized Prophylactic Heparin Protocol in Bariatric Patients
Conclusions: After instituting a standard protocol of prophylactic heparin postdischarge, we did not find an increased rate of bleeding events in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Thus, surgeons can consider prescribing postdischarge chemical VTE prophylaxis without concern for bleeding.PMID:38657113 | DOI:10.1089/lap.2023.0532 (Source: Adv Data)

Enhanced recovery after surgery improves clinical outcomes in adolescent bariatric surgery
CONCLUSIONS: The described ERAS protocol is safe and effective in adolescents undergoing laparoscopic VSG and is associated with shorter time to oral intake, reduced opioid requirements, and shorter hospital lengths of stay with no increase in return ED visits or readmissions.PMID:38653653 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2024.03.016 (Source: Surgery for Obesity and Related Diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery)

Hedonic hunger, eating behavior, and food reward and preferences 1 year after initial weight loss by diet or bariatric surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Continued WL with bariatric surgery is paralleled by favorable changes in eating behavior and food reward and preferences. By contrast, controls experienced weight regain at 1Y follow-up and no changes in eating behavior. These striking differences are likely to be important in the long-term WL management of individuals with severe obesity.PMID:38653583 | DOI:10.1002/oby.24021 (Source: Obesity)

Pancreatitis after Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Intervention
A 50-year-old man who had undergone distal gastrectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy for gastric adenocarcinoma presented with new hyperbilirubinemia and biliary ductal dilation (Fig  1a, black arrow) secondary to a common bile duct (CBD) mass (Fig 1a, white arrow). Owing to his gastrojejunostomy (Fig 1a, open arrow), he was not a candidate for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. A percutaneous transhepatic cholangiogram confirmed abrupt truncation of the CBD (Fig 1b, white arrow), and a brush biopsy (Cellebrity Cytology Brush; Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Massachsetts) was performed (Fig 1b, black arrow) bef...
