- IMPORTANCE Knowledge of the incidence and progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) after gastric bypass surgery (GBP) in patients with obesity and diabetes could guide the management of these patients. OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence of diabetic ocular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes after GBP compared with the incidence of diabetic ocular complications in a matched cohort of patients with obesity and diabetes who have not undergone GBP. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Data from 2 nationwide registers in Sweden, the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry and the National Diabetes Register, were used for this cohort study. A total of 5321 patients with diabetes from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry who had undergone GBP from January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2013, were matched with 5321 patients with diabetes from the National Diabetes Register who had not undergone GBP, based on sex, age, body mass index (BMI), and calendar time (2007-2013). Follow-up data were obtained until December 31, 2015. Statistical analysis was performed from October 5, 2018, to September 30, 2019. EXPOSURE Gastric bypass surgery. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Incidence of new DR and other diabetic ocular complications. RESULTS The study population consisted of 5321 patients who had undergone GBP (3223 women [60.6%]; mean [SD] age, 49.0 [9.5] years) and 5321 matched controls (3395 women [63.8%]; mean [SD] age, 47.1 [11.5] years). Mean (SD) follow-up was 4.5 (1.6) years. The mean (SD) BMI and hemoglobin A1c concentration at baseline were 42.0 (5.7) and 7.6%(1.5%), respectively, in the GBP group and 40.9 (7.3) and 7.5%(1.5%), respectively, in the control group. The mean (SD) duration of diabetes was 6.8 (6.3) years in the GBP group and 6.4 (6.4) years in the control group. The risk for new DR was reduced in the patients who underwent GBP (hazard ratio, 0.62 [95% CI, 0.49-0.78]; P <.001). The dominant risk factors for development of DR at baseline were diabetes duration, hemoglobin A1c concentration, use of insulin, glomerular filtration rate, and BMI. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This nationwide matched cohort study suggests that there is a reduced risk of developing new DR associated with GBP, and no evidence of an increased risk of developing DR that threatened sight or required treatment.

Gastric bypass surgery reduced the risk for diabetic retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes : A nationwide observational study
- 2019

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose: Diverging results have been reported with regards to the occurrence and progression of diabetic retinopathy following gastric bypass surgery (GBP) in patients with diabetes. We aimed to investigate the incidence of diabetic ocular complications in a nationwide study in Sweden in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) following GBP and compared to a matched cohort of patients with T2DM not subjected to GBP surgery.Setting: Nationwide registry study in Sweden.Methods: We used data from two nationwide registers in Sweden: the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry (SOReg) and the National Diabetes Registry (NDR). Patients with T2DM who had undergone GBP 2007-2013 reported to the SOReg were matched (1:1) with patients with T2DM from the NDR who had not had GBP surgery for obesity, based on sex, age, body mass index (BMI) and calender time (year). Follow-up data were obtained until December 31, 2015. The main outcome was occurrence of new diabetic retinopathy and was assessed with Cox proportional-hazards regression model. The importance of potential risk factors was assessed using a machine learning approach.Results: The study population consisted of 5321 patients who had undergone GBP and 5321 matched controls in NDR, and was followed up for a mean of 4.5 years. Mean age was 49.0 (SD 9.5) in the GBP and 47.1 (11.5) years in the control patients, respectively. BMI and HbA1c at baseline were 42.0 (5.7) and 60.0 (16.8) in the GBP group and 40.9 (7.3) kg/m2 and 58.5 (16.9) mmol/mol in the control group. Duration of diabetes was approximately 6 years in both groups. The risk for new diabetic retinopathy was reduced in the GBP patients (hazard ratio [HR] 0·62, 95% CI 0·49–0·78; p<0.001). The most important risk factors for development of diabetic retinopathy were diabetes duration, HbA1c, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), use of insulin and BMI. There was no evidence of increased risk for development of sight-threatening or treatment-requiring diabetic ocular complications such as diabetic macular edema, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, need for intravitreal drug administration, panretinal photocoagulation or vitrectomy.Conclusions: In this nationwide large cohort study of patients with type 2 diabetes we found a beneficial effect of GBP surgery on the risk for development of diabetic retinopathy. Furthermore, there were no indications for increased occurrence of sight-threatening or treatment-requiring diabetic retinopathy. These data provide support that, besides standard screening for diabetic retinopathy, there is no need for extended ophthalmological surveillance of patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing GBP surgery.

- Purpose Obesity is associated with increased incidence of kidney stones, a risk further increased by metabolic and bariatric surgery, particularly after procedures with a malabsorptive component. However, there is a paucity in reports on baseline risk factor and on larger population-based cohorts. The objective was to evaluate incidence and risk factors for kidney stones after bariatric surgery by comparing them to an age-, sex-, and geographically matched cohort from the normal population. Material and Methods Patients operated with primary Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), or biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) from 2007 until 2017 within the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery registry were matched 1:10 to controls from the normal population. Hospital admission or outpatient visits due to kidney stones registered in the National Patient Registry were considered as endpoint. Results The study included 58,366 surgical patients (mean age 41.0 +/-, BMI 42.0 +/- 5.68, 76% women) with median follow-up time 5.0 [IQR 2.9-7.0] years and 583,660 controls. All surgical procedures were associated with a significantly increased risk for kidney stones (RYGB, HR 6.16, [95% CI 5.37-7.06]; SG, HR 6.33, [95% CI 3.57-11.25]; BPD/DS, HR 10.16, [95% CI 2.94-35.09]). Higher age, type 2 diabetes hypertension at baseline, and a preoperative history of kidney stones were risk factors for having a postoperative diagnosis of kidney stones. Conclusion Primary RYGB, SG, and BPD/DS were all associated with a more than sixfold increased risk for postoperative kidney stones. The risk increased with advancing age, two common obesity-related conditions, and among patients with preoperative history of kidney stones.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The new Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry (SOReg) report may influence current guidelines. Patients without type 2 diabetes (T2DM) prior to bariatric surgery had lower mortality over 6.3 years compared to those with T2DM. Moreover, patients with T2DM who achieved remission within 1 year after surgery had lower mortality than those who did not remit. Finally, there was no threshold at 10 years, but rather a linear relationship between duration of T2DM and glycemic remission. The SOReg report challenges existing recommendations and clinical practice. A case may also be made for patients with T2DM who did not achieve glycemic remission after 1 year to have a combination approach of surgery with medicines rather than surgery alone. Ultimately, the impact of T2DM duration on glycemic remission again suggest that patients with T2DM should have bariatric surgery earlier.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose: To study the occurrence and level of diabetic retinopathy (DRP) before and after planned bariatric surgery and to investigate potential risk factors for deterioration of DRP.Methods: The Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry (SOReg) was used to identify diabetic patients who underwent gastric bypass (GBP) surgery at three centres in Sweden during 2008-2010. Information regarding DRP screening was obtained from ophthalmological patient charts. Patients who had DRP screening before and after GBP surgery were included in the study.Results: The survey included 117 patients. Mean age was 50 (SD 10) years, body mass index (BMI) 43 (SD 8) kg/m(2) and HbA1c 64 (SD 18) mmol/mol before surgery. One year post-GBP, BMI was reduced to 31 (SD 6) kg/m(2). HbA1c was 43 (SD 10) mmol/mol, and in 66% (77/117) treatment for diabetes had been discontinued. Occurrence of DRP before GBP was as follows: no DRP 62%, mild 26%, moderate 10%, severe 0% and proliferative DRP 2%. No significant changes in occurrence of DRP after surgery were observed. Twelve patients (16%) developed mild DRP. In seven patients with pre-existing DRP, deterioration was observed and two of these patients required treatment for sight-threatening DRP. No association between preoperative BMI, HbA1c or reduction in HbA1c and worsening of DRP was found.Conclusion: In a majority of patients, no deterioration of DRP following GBP was observed. Screening for DRP before planned surgery is recommended for all diabetic patients about to undergo bariatric surgery to identify any pre-existing DRP.

- Background: The number of patients with myocardial infarction and severe obesity is increasing and there is a lack of evidence how these patients should be treated. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between metabolic surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy) and major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with previous myocardial infarction (MI) and severe obesity.Methods: Of 566 patients with previous MI registered in the SWEDEHEART registry (Swedish Web-System for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-Based Care in Heart Disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies) undergoing metabolic surgery and registered in the nationwide Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry, 509 patients (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass n=465; sleeve gastrectomy n=44) could be matched 1:1 to a control with MI from SWEDEHEART, but no subsequent metabolic surgery regarding sex, age (+/- 3 years), year of MI (+/- 3 years), and body mass index (+/- 3). The 2 groups were well matched, except for a lower proportion of reduced ejection fraction after MI (7% versus 12%), previous heart failure (10% versus 19%), atrial fibrillation (6% versus 10%), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (4% versus 7%) in patients undergoing metabolic surgery.Results: The median (interquartile range) follow-up time was 4.6 (2.7-7.1) years. The 8-year cumulative probability of major adverse cardiovascular events was lower in patients undergoing metabolic surgery (18.7% [95% CI, 15.9-21.5%] versus 36.2% [33.2-39.3%], adjusted hazard ratio, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.32-0.61]). Patients undergoing metabolic surgery had also a lower risk of death (adjusted HR, 0.45 [95% CI, 0.29-0.70]; MI, 0.24 [0.14-0.41]) and new onset heart failure, but there were no significant differences regarding stroke (0.91 [0.38-2.20]) and new onset atrial fibrillation (0.56 [0.31-1.01]).Conclusions: In severely obese patients with previous MI, metabolic surgery is associated with a low risk for serious complications, lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, death, new MI, and new onset heart failure. These findings need to be confirmed in a randomized, controlled trial.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the use and short-term outcome of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in Sweden, Norway, and the Netherlands. Background: Although bariatric surgery is performed in high volumes worldwide, no consensus exists regarding the choice of bariatric procedure for specific groups of patients. Methods: Data from 3 national registries for bariatric surgery were used. Patient selection, perioperative data (severe complications, mortality, and rate of readmissions within 30 days), and 1-year results (follow-up rate and weight loss) were studied. Results: A total of 47,101 primary operations were registered, 33,029 (70.1%) RYGB and 14,072 (29.9%) SG. Patients receiving RYGB met international guidelines for having bariatric surgery more often than those receiving SG (91.9% vs 83,0%,P< 0.001). The 2 procedures did not differ in the rate of severe complications (2.6% vs 2.4%,P= 0.382), nor 30-day mortality (0.04% vs 0.03%,P= 0.821). Readmission rates were higher after RYGB (4.3% vs 3.4%,P< 0.001). One-year post surgery, less RYGB-patients were lost-to follow-up (12.1% vs 16.5%,P< 0.001) and RYGB resulted in a higher rate of patients with total weight loss of more than 20% (95.8% vs 84.6%,P< 0.001). While the weight-loss after RYGB was similar between hospitals, there was a great variation in weight loss after SG. Conclusion: This study reflects the pragmatic use and short-term outcome of RYGB and SG in 3 countries in North-Western Europe. Both procedures were safe, with RYGB having higher weight loss and follow-up rates at the cost of a slightly higher 30-day readmission rate.

- Introduction: The global prevalence of obesity has increased in recent decades, and bariatric surgery has become a part of the treatment algorithm of obesity. National high-quality registries enable large-scale evaluations of the use and outcome of bariatric surgery and may allow for improved knowledge. The main objective was to evaluate the rate and type of complications after primary bariatric surgery in three North-Western European countries using nationwide registries.Materials and Methods: Data from three registries for bariatric surgery were used (January 2015-December 2016). All registries have nationwide coverage with data on patient characteristics, obesity-related diseases, surgical technique, complications, grading of complications, reinterventions, readmissions, and mortality. Eligibility criteria for bariatric surgery were similar and included body mass index of 40.0 or 35.0kg/m(2), with one or more obesity-associated diseases.Results: A total of 35,858 procedures (32,177 primary) were registered. The most common procedure was gastric bypass in the Netherlands (78.9%) and Sweden (67.0%), and sleeve gastrectomy in Norway (58.2%). A total of 904 (2.8%) patients developed major complications after primary surgery and 12 patients (0.04%) died within 30days. Total number of complications between the registries were comparable (p=0.939). However, significant differences were seen for Clavien-Dindo Classification grades IIIb and IV (p<0.001). Pooled readmission rates were 4.3% (n=1386).Discussion: Bariatric surgery is safely performed in the three evaluated countries. Standardization of registries and consensus of variables are essential for international comparison and may contribute to improved quality of treatment across nations.
