- Background: Obesity is strongly associated with esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), yet whether weight loss reduces the risk of EAC is unclear. Objectives: To test the hypothesis that the risk of EAC decreases following weight reduction achieved by obesity surgery. Setting: Nationwide register-based cohort study. Methods: This study included a majority of individuals who underwent obesity surgery in Sweden in 1980-2012. The incidence of EAC following obesity surgery was compared to the incidence in the corresponding background population of Sweden by means of calculation of standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The risk of EAC after obesity surgery was also compared with the risk in non-operated obese individuals by means of multivariable Cox regression, providing hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs, adjusted for potential confounders. Results: Among 34,437 study participants undergoing obesity surgery and 239,775 person- 15" years of follow-up, 8 cases of EAC occurred (SIR 1.6, 95% CI 0.7-3.2). No clear trend of decreased SIRs was seen in relation to increased follow-up time after surgery. The SIR of EACs (n=53) among 123,695 non-operated obese individuals (673,238 person-years) was increased to a similar extent as in the obesity surgery cohort (SIR=1.9, 95% CI 1.4-2.5). Cox regression showed no difference in risk of EAC between operated and non-operated participants (adjusted HR=0.9, 95% CI 0.4-1.9). Conclusions: The risk of EAC might not decrease following obesity surgery, but even larger studies with longer follow-up are needed to establish this association.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Adolescent obesity is challenging to treat even if good multidisciplinary approaches are started early. Vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) is an effective intervention for long-term weight loss, but the underlying mechanisms that result in reduced calorie intake are controversial. Anecdotal evidence from the clinic and evidence in rodents after VSG suggest a decrease in the reward value of high-calorie dense foods. Objectives: To determine changes in appetitive behavior of candies (high in sugar and fat) after VSG in adolescents with obesity. Setting: University hospital. Methods: Sixteen adolescents with obesity (age 15.3 ±.5 yr) who had VSG and 10 control patients (age 13.8 ±.6 yr) who had not undergone surgery were studied. Both groups completed a progressive ratio task by clicking a computer mouse on a progressive ratio schedule to receive a candy high in sugar and fat. In the task, patients were required to expend an increasing amount of effort to obtain the reinforcer until they reach a breakpoint (measure of the reward value of the reinforcer). The task was performed before VSG and 12 and 52 weeks after VSG. Results: The VSG group's bodyweight decreased from the baseline 136.6 ± 5.1 to 110.9 ± 5.2 to 87.4 ± 3.7 kg after 12 and 52 weeks, respectively (P <.001). The median breakpoint for candies decreased after VSG from the baseline 320 (160–640) to 80 (50–320) to 160 (80–560) after 12 and 52 weeks, respectively (P =.01). Breakpoints for the control patients did not change (480 [160–640] versus 640 [280–640], P =.17). Conclusion: VSG resulted in a reduction in the reward value of a candy, as suggested by the reduced amount of effort adolescents were prepared to expend to obtain the high-sugar and high-fat candy. The effect was most pronounced 12 weeks after surgery but was largely maintained at 1 year. Long-term attenuation of appetitive behavior may be the key to weight loss and weight loss maintenance after VSG in adolescents. © 2018

- BACKGROUND: The optimal sleeve diameter and distance from the pylorus to the edge of the resection line in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) remain controversial.OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the influence of bougie size and antral resection distance from the pylorus on postoperative complications and weight-loss results in LSG.SETTING: Nationwide registry-based study.METHODS: This study included all LSGs performed in Sweden between 2012 and 2019. Data were obtained from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry. Reference bougie size of 35-36 Fr and an antral resection distance of 5 cm from the pylorus were compared to narrower bougie size (30-32 Fr), shorter distances (1-4 cm), and extended distances (6-8 cm) from the pylorus in assessing postoperative complications and weight loss as the outcomes of LSG. RESULTS: The study included 9,360 patients with postoperative follow-up rates of 96%, 79%, and 50% at 30 days, 1 year, and 2 years, respectively. Narrow bougie and short antral resection distance from the pylorus were significantly associated with increased postoperative weight loss. Bougie size was not associated with increased early or late complications. However, short antral resection distance was associated with high risk of overall early complications [odds ratio: 1.46 (1.17-1.82, P = .001)], although no impact on late complications at 1 and 2 years was observed.CONCLUSIONS: Using a narrow bougie and initiating resection closer to the pylorus were associated with greater maximum weight loss. Although a closer resection to the pylorus was associated with an increased risk of early postoperative complications, no association was observed with the use of narrow bougie for LSG.

- Background: Gallstone disease is a known short-term complication of bariatric surgery; little is known of the long-term incidence. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between bariatric surgery and long-term incidence of gallstone disease. Settings: A total of 25 surgery departments and 480 primary healthcare centers in Sweden. Methods: The Swedish Obese Subjects study is a prospective, controlled study comparing the effects of bariatric surgery with usual care with a follow-up of 20 years, including 4047 individuals. The current report includes all participants without previous or concomitant cholecystectomy (n = 3597). Operative techniques used in the surgery group (n = 1755) were gastric bypass (n = 236), vertical banded gastroplasty (n = 1202), and gastric banding (n = 317). The control group (n = 1842) received customary treatment for obesity. Gallstone disease was a predefined secondary endpoint in the Swedish Obese Subjects study and the primary endpoint of this report. Data were obtained by cross-checking our study database with the Swedish National Patient Register of diagnosis and procedures. Results: In the surgery and control groups, respectively, there were 307 and 252 first-time events of symptomatic gallstone disease and 230 and 170 cholecystectomies (log-rank P <.001, both outcomes). Bariatric surgery was associated with an increased risk of symptomatic gallstone disease, with a more pronounced risk during the first years of follow-up (P =.002) and an increased risk for cholecystectomy but with no time-varying effect (P =.213). Conclusions: Bariatric surgery increases the risk for symptomatic gallstone disease and cholecystectomy, especially during the first years following treatment. © 2020 American Society for Bariatric Surgery

- Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is the most common procedure for revisional bariatric surgery. This study is an analysis of revisional gastric bypass operations (rGBP) compared with primary gastric bypass (pGBP) performed in Sweden between 2007 and 2016.Objective: The aim was to compare the incidence of adverse events in primary and revisional gastric bypass surgery and to identify predictive factors of intraoperative, early, and late complications in revisional gastric bypass surgery.Setting: Forty-four hospitals.Methods: Registered study from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry. The study group (rGBP) comprised 1795 patients, and the control group (pGBP) comprised 46,055 patients.Results: Median follow-up time was 28 months. The rate of open procedures was significantly higher in the rGBP group (39.1% versus 2.4%; P < .001) decreasing from 70.8% in 2007 to 8.5% in 2016. Intraoperative complications (15.5% versus 3.0%, P < .001), early complications (24.6% versus 8.7%; P < .001), and late complications (17.7% versus 8.7%; P < .001) occurred more often in the rGBP group. Open access in revisional surgery was an independent risk factor for intraoperative complications (odds ratio 3.87; 95% confidence interval: 2.69-5.57, P < .001), early complications (odds ratio 2.08; 95% confidence interval: 1.53-2.83, P < .001), and late complications (odds ratio 1.91; 95% confidence interval: 1.31-2.78, P = .001). Indication for revision or type of index operation were not associated with complications.Conclusion: RGBP was associated with a higher incidence of intraoperative, early, and late complications compared with pGBP. Open access in revisional surgery was predictive of complications regardless of the index operation or indication for revision.

- Background: In Sweden, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is the most common procedure when revising a previous bariatric procedure. This study is an analysis of all revisional gastric bypass operations (rGBP) compared with a matched group of primary gastric bypass (pGBP) operated between 2007 and 2012.Objective: The aim was to determine whether improvement of obesity-related co-morbidity and changes in weight after revisional gastric bypass surgery were comparable with those seen after primary surgery.Setting: 44 hospitals in SwedenMethods: Retrospective data were retrieved from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry. The study group (rGBP) comprised 1224 patients, and the control group (pGBP) comprised 3612 patients matched for age and gender.Results: The indication for revision was weight failure in 512 patients (42%), a late complication of the initial procedure in 330 patients (27%), and a combination of weight failure and complication in 303 patients (25%). A total of 66% of patients in the rGBP group and 67% in the pGBP group completed the 2-year follow-up in the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry.The rGBP-group had significantly less excess BMI loss (%EBMIL, 59.4 +/- 147.0 versus 79.5 +/- 24.7, P < .001) and a lower dyslipidemia remission rate (42.9% versus 62.0%, P = .005) at the time of the 2-year follow-up. Remission rates of sleep apnea, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and depression were similar. The effects on obesity-related co-morbidity were not related to the indication for revisional surgery or the initial bariatric procedure.Conclusion: Even if weight results might be inferior compared with primary bypass procedures, the improvement of co-morbidity is similar.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) among adolescents with obesity results in signif-icant weight loss; however, depot-specific changes have been understudied.Objective: We hypothesized that visceral adipose tissue (VAT) reduction in adolescents undergoing RYGB would be greater than other depots and associated with improvement in cardiometabolic risk factors.Setting: Three specialized treatment centers in Sweden. Methods: Fifty-nine adolescents underwent dual x-ray absorptiometry before surgery and at 1, 2, and 5 years after RYGB. Changes in body composition in multiple depots (total fat, lean body, gynoid fat, android fat, subcutaneous adipose tissue, and VAT) and cardiometabolic risk factors were assessed using multiple linear regression analysis and generalized estimating equations adjusting for age, sex, and baseline risk factor levels. Data are presented as percent change (95% CI) with regression models showing slopes and estimated P values.Results: At 1 year post-RYGB, a significant reduction was observed across all body composition measures (P , .001) with the greatest reduction observed in VAT (-65.1% [-68.7, -61.8]). From year 1 to 5 years post-RYGB, a regain was observed in all depots except lean body mass (1.2% [.3, 2.7], P 5 .105). A sex-specific difference in overall trajectories was only observed in lean body mass with males consistently having higher mean levels. Change in VAT at 1 year correlated with change in triglycerides (slope: .21 mg/dL/kg, P = .034) and fasting plasma insulin (slope: 44 pmol/L/kg, P = .027). Conclusions: Adiposity measures all decreased after RYGB but poorly predicted change in cardio-metabolic risk. Despite significant reductions at 1 year, a steady regain was observed out to 5 years, with values still well below baseline. Further research should consider control group comparison and extended follow-up.

- AbstractObjectiveTo study the immediate effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on glucose homeostasis, insulin, and incretin responses to mixed-meal tests compared with the effects of calorie restriction (CR).SettingUniversity-affiliated bariatric surgery clinic.BackgroundRYGB induces remission of type 2 diabetes (T2 D) long before significant weight loss occurs. The time course and underlying mechanisms of this remission remain enigmatic. A prevailing theory is that secretory patterns of incretin hormones are altered due to rearrangement of the gastrointestinal tract. To what extent reduced calorie intake contributes to the remission of T2 D is unknown.MethodsNine normoglycemic patients and 10 T2 D patients were subjected to mixed-meal tests (MMT) 4 weeks before surgery before initiation of a very low calorie diet regimen (MMT-4 w), 1 day before surgery on a very low calorie diet regimen (MMT-1 d), on the morning of the first day after surgery (MMT+1 d; first postsurgical meal), and 6 weeks after surgery (MMT+6 w). Insulin, glucose, active glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) were measured.ResultsCR lowered insulin in T2 D patients, whereas glucose, GIP, and GLP-1 were unaffected. RYGB immediately increased plasma insulin and GIP. The GLP-1 response was delayed compared with the GIP response. T2 D patients exhibited lower insulin responses after RYGB compared with normoglycemic patients. GIP responses were similar in both groups at all occasions, whereas T2 D patients displayed markedly elevated GLP-1 responses 6 weeks after RYGB. Glucose was unaffected by CR and RYGB in both groups. Insulin sensitivity was unaffected by CR but improved with RYGB.ConclusionRYGB exerts powerful and immediate effects on insulin and incretin responses to food, independently of changes caused by CR.

- There is a lack of knowledge about the patient's experience of excess skin after bariatric surgery in patients with body mass index, (BMI)>50 kg/m(2). The objective of this study was to evaluate experience of excess skin after laparoscopic biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) or laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) and explore possible gender differences. Another aim was to analyze possible correlation between the reported experiences of excess skin with changes in weight, BMI, and hip and waist circumference after surgery.

- Background: Excess skin is a well-known side effect of massive weight loss after bariatric surgery. However, there is a lack of longitudinal follow-ups. Objectives: The primary aims of this study were to investigate the development and amount of excess skin after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and to relate objective results to subjective experiences. Methods: From 2009 to 2012, 200 patients were included and assessed with respect to excess skin before and 18 months after bariatric surgery. Patients were measured according to a standardized protocol and completed a questionnaire regarding their subjective experience of excess skin. Results: A follow-up visit was completed in 149 patients (78%). All ptosis measurements decreased after weight reduction except for ptosis on the thighs. When comparing objective measurements with patients' subjective experience and discomfort from excess skin, we found little or low correlation in most body parts (r(s).03-.67). The prediction analysis indicated that, for every centimeter of ptosis on the abdomen preoperatively, there was a 2-fold greater probability of having a postoperative ptosis on the abdomen of >3 cm (OR = 2.32, 1.76-3.07). Conclusion: The objective measurement of excess skin provides unique information in postbariatric patients' body habitus. Although the measured excess skin decreased compared with preoperative measurements, patients seem to become more aware of and disturbed and discomforted by it after the weight loss. Importantly, the objectively assessed measurements of excess skin correlated fairly with the perceived discomfort. (C) 2016 American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. All rights reserved.

- Background: Despite the modest effects of behavioral treatment on obesity in adolescence, bariatric surgery is rarely performed. Obesity often persists from childhood to adulthood, but it is not known how many individuals proceed with bariatric surgery in young adulthood. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine what proportion of individuals who received pediatric behavioral obesity treatment subsequently underwent bariatric surgery in early adulthood, and to identify predictors thereof. Setting: National registries, Sweden. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, the Swedish Childhood Obesity Treatment Register was linked to several national registers. Results: The childhood obesity cohort included 6502 (45% females) with a median age at follow-up of 21.7 years (interquartile range [IQR] 5.2). Of these, 8.2% underwent bariatric surgery at a median age of 20.9 years (IQR 4.2). The estimated cumulative incidence of bariatric surgery at age 30 was 21.5%. Obesity-related co-morbidities were identified in 31.7% before bariatric surgery in the childhood obesity cohort. Predictors of bariatric surgery were female sex, high body mass index standard deviation score (BMI SDS) at the start and end of treatment, poor treatment response, as well as own or parental cardiometabolic disease. Conclusions: More than a fifth are estimated to undergo bariatric surgery in early adulthood, despite having received pediatric behavioral obesity treatment. Our results indicate that for many children, behavioral treatment is insufficient in reducing obesity and preventing obesity-related co-morbidity. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that more effective treatment of adolescents with severe obesity, including more rigorous behavioral support and pharmacologic treatment, but also more frequent use of bariatric surgery, would benefit this group of patients. © 2020 American Society for Bariatric Surgery

- BACKGROUND: Several studies have addressed short-term admission rates after bariatric surgery. However, studies on long-term admission rates are few and population based studies are even scarcer.OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess short- and long-term admission rates for gastrointestinal surgery after gastric bypass in Sweden compared with admission rates in the general population.SETTING: Swedish healthcare system.METHODS: The surgery cohort consisted of adults with body mass index≥35 identified in the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry (n = 28,331; mean age 41 years; 76% women; Roux-en-Y gastric bypass performed 2007-2012). For each individual, up to 10 comparators from the general population were matched on birth year, sex, and place of residence (n = 274,513). The primary outcome was inpatient admissions due to gastrointestinal surgery retrieved from the National Patient Register through December 31, 2014. Conditional hazard ratios (HR) were estimated using Cox regression.RESULTS: All-cause admission rates were 6.5%, 21.4%, and 65.9% during 30 days, 1 year, and 6 years after surgery, respectively. The corresponding rates for gastrointestinal surgery were 1.8%, 6.8%, and 24.4%. Compared with that of the general population, there was an increased risk of all-cause hospital admission at 1 year (HR 2.6 [2.5-2.6]) and 6 years (HR 2.7 [2.6-2.7]). The risk of hospital admission for any gastrointestinal surgical procedure was greatly increased throughout the study period (HR 8.6 [8.4-8.9]). Female sex, psychiatric disease, and low education were risk factors.CONCLUSION: We found a significant risk of admission to hospital over>6 years after gastric bypass surgery.

- Background: The interaction between motivation to eat, eating behavior traits, and gut peptides after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is not fully understood. Methods: Appetite and hormone responses to a fixed liquid preload were assessed in 12 obese (body mass index 45 +/- 1.9 kg/m(2)) participants immediately before and 3 days, 2 months, and 1 year after RYGB surgery. Subjective appetite and plasma levels of ghrelin, leptin, insulin, and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) were measured for a 3-hour postprandial period. Eating behavior traits were also measured using the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire 18 (TFEQR18). Results: There was a decrease in TFEQR18 emotional eating (EE) and uncontrolled eating (UE) from presurgery to 1 year postsurgery but no significant change in cognitive restraint (CR). These changes occurred independently of change in weight. In addition, there was a reduction in subjective appetite ratings and alterations in appetite peptides favoring an anorectic response. Presurgery EE was significantly related to fasting and area under the curve (AUC) ghrelin; UE was associated with AUC desire to eat, and there was a significant association between fasting desire to eat and ghrelin (fasting and AUC). One year postsurgery, UE was positively related to fasting insulin, and CR was negatively associated with GLP-1. UE and subjective hunger were positively correlated, while the relationship between desire to eat and ghrelin remained. onclusion: The relationships among subjective appetite ratings, eating behavior traits, and appetite peptides in obese patients both before and at 1 year after RYGB surgery may contribute to the reduction in a propensity to overeat (as measured by TFEQR18 factors) and weight loss.

- Background Increased permeability and uptake of proinflammatory bacterial endotoxins from gut microbiota has been suggested as a mechanism for obesity-associated chronic inflammation that causes obesity-associated insulin resistance. We hypothesized that intestinal barrier function may be restored after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery and thereby contribute to decreased inflammation. The objective of this study was to investigate levels of the permeability-regulating tight-junction proteins in human small intestinal mucosa before and after RYGB surgery. Methods Paired intraindividual jejunal mucosa samples were retrieved at the time of surgery and 6 to 8 months after surgery. Mucosal cell surface area was calculated by histomorphometry. Mucosal samples were analyzed by proteomics to find patterns of protein regulations. Based on these findings further analyses were performed by Western blotting. Ussing chambers were used to analyze permeability in the retrieved mucosal samples. Results Mucosal surface area was significantly decreased after surgery. Global protein expression analysis showed a significant increase in the cytokeratin-8 (Ck8), which was confirmed by Western blotting. Further analyses showed a significant increase in claudin-3 and -4 expression after surgery, whereas occludin and zonula occludens-1 levels were decreased. Expressions of claudin-1, -2, -5 and vinculin were unchanged. Ussing chamber experiments revealed a linear correlation between the epithelial electrical resistance and claudin-3 protein expression. Conclusion Several alterations were found in the rerouted small intestine after surgery, indicating a decreased jejunal mucosal surface area and decreased paracellular permeability. These changes could contribute to decreased uptake of luminal microbiota-derived inflammatory mediators such as endotoxins after RYGB.

- Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is associated with rapid postsurgical improvement in glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2 DM). However, there is little outcome-based evidence to guide the glycemic management of this patient group preoperatively. Objectives: We conducted 2 pilot studies randomizing patients to assess the impact of intensive glucose management pre- and post-RYGB on clinical outcomes after surgery. Setting: University hospital. Methods: In the GLUCOSURG-pre randomized controlled trial (RCT), 34 obese T2 DM patients with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1 c) >= 8.5% (69 mmol/mol) undergoing RYGB were randomly assigned to receive either glucose optimization or no optimization 3 months preoperatively. In the GLUCOSURG-post RCT, 35 obese T2 DM patients on insulin were randomly assigned to either intensive or conservative glucose management up to 2 weeks post- RYGB. HbA1c at 1 year post-RYGB was the primary outcome. Results: In GLUCOSURG-pre, the HbA1 c at 1 year postsurgely was -3.0% (51.9 mmol/mol) in the optimized and -4.0% (45.4 mmol/mol) in the nonoptimized groups (P = .06). In GLUCOSURG-post, there were no significant differences in HbA1 c at 1 year postsurgery between the intensive and conservative groups [-2.4% (44.3 mmol/mol)] versus [-2.3% (44.3 mmol/mol), P = .73)]. Conclusions: Our pilot studies suggested that neither intensive management of glycemia in the 3 months pre- RYGB, nor the first 2 weeks post-RYGB resulted in better glycemic control one year after surgery. RYGB has substantial effects on glucose control, and additional intensive glucose-lowering interventions do not confer clinical benefits compared to conservative approaches.

- Background: Gut-kidney signaling is implicated in sodium homeostasis and thus blood pressure regulation. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery for morbid obesity confers a pronounced and long-lasting blood pressure lowering effect in addition to significant weight loss. Objectives: We set out to establish whether RYGB is associated with an intrinsic change in urinary sodium excretion that may contribute to the reported blood pressure lowering effects of the procedure. Methods: Five female patients (age range: 28-50 yr) without metabolic or hypertensive co-morbidities were included in a study involving four 24-hour residential visits: once before surgery and 10 days, 3 months, and 20 months after surgery. Creatinine and sodium were measured in fasting plasma samples and 24-hour urine samples and creatinine clearance, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and indices of urinary sodium excretion were calculated. Fasting and 60-minute postprandial blood samples from each study day were assayed for pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). Results: Increases in weight-normalized urinary sodium excretion of up to 2.3-fold in magnitude occurred at 20 months after surgery. Median fractional excretion of sodium at 20 months was double that seen before surgery. Fasting NT-proBNP levels were stable or increased (1.5- to 5-fold). Moreover, a small postprandial increase in NT-proBNP was observed after surgery. Conclusions: Renal fractional excretion of sodium is increased after RYGB. A shift toward increased postoperative basal and meal associated levels of NT-proBNP coincides with increased urinary sodium excretion. The data support a working hypothesis that an enhanced natriuretic gut kidney signal after RYGB may be of mechanistic importance in the blood pressure lowering effects of this procedure.

- Background: Young adults display particularly poor weight loss in behavioral obesity treatment; nonetheless, they have seldom been included in bariatric research. Objectives: To compare weight loss, adverse events, and loss to follow-up in young (18-25 yr) versus older (>= 26 yr) adults up to 5 years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Methods: Prospective registry data (Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Register) were analyzed in young (22.2 yr [standard deviation (SD): 2.1], 81.6% women, mean body mass index 43.7 kg/m(2) [SD: 5.4]) and older (42.6 years [SD: 9.6], 82.0% women, mean body mass index 43.4 kg/m(2) [SD: 5.0]) adults undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Groups were matched for body mass index, sex, and year of surgery. Regression analyses and mixed models were used to compare outcomes between groups. Results: A total of 369 young (37.0% of eligible) and 2210 older (46.1%) adults attended the 5-year follow-up. At this time, weight loss was 31.8% in young and 28.2% in older adults (P < .001), with a serious adverse event (Clavien-Dindo >= 3b) being reported in 52 (14.1%) young and 153 (6.9%) older adults (odds ratio = 2.06, 95% confidence interval: 1.45-2.92, P < .001). Loss to follow-up was higher in young versus older adults throughout the study period (range of relative risk = 1.16-1.89, P < .001). Conclusions: While young adults displayed at least equal weight loss as older adults, rates of adverse events were approximately doubled, and loss to follow-up rates were higher. Future studies on the significance of and the etiology behind the higher incidence of serious adverse events are needed. Intensified clinical contact post Roux-en-Y gastric bypass should have the potential to further improve outcomes in young adults. (C) 2018 American Society for Bariatric Surgery.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: Open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) may be chosen because of known widespread adhesions or as a result of conversion during laparoscopic surgery. Although conversions are rare, they occur even in experienced hands. The gastrojejunostomy may be performed with a circular stapler (CS) or a linear stapler (LS) or may be entirely hand sewn (HS). Our aim was to study differences in outcomes regarding the anastomotic techniques utilized in open surgery.SETTING: Nationwide cohort.METHODS: Data on open surgery, both primary open and converted procedures from Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry were analyzed for the years 2007-2013. Outcomes were assessed through multivariate analysis, adjusting for gender, age, preoperative body mass index, diabetes, conversion, and technique used for the gastrojejunostomy.RESULTS: CS was the most common method used for primary open RYGB (58%), whereas LS was the most common for converted RYGB (63%). HS was uncommon in both groups. Operative time was shorter for LS than for CS in the primary open RYGB (110±40 min versus 132±46 min; P<.001). Anastomotic leakage rates were similar in primary open RYGB (1.0%-2.4%), but leakage rates for LS in converted procedures was 10.1%, thus higher compared with 2.1% in converted CS patients (P = .02). Odds ratio for leakage was 2.87 (95% confidence interval 1.18-6.97) for LS using CS as a reference when adjusting for variables above.CONCLUSION: LS was associated to increased risk of leakage in patients with conversion from laparoscopic RYGB to open RYGB. Conversion to open surgery was associated to increased risk of leakage. Technique used for the gastrojejunostomy did not affect weight loss.

- BACKGROUND:Weight loss before laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is desirable, because it can reduce liver volume and thereby facilitate the procedure. The optimal duration of a low-calorie diet (LCD) has not been established. The objective of this study was to assess changes in liver volume and body composition during 4 weeks of LCD.METHODS:Ten women (aged 43±8.9 years, 114±12.1 kg, and body mass index 42±2.6 kg/m2) were examined on days 0, 3, 7, 14, and 28 after commencing the LCD. At each evaluation, body composition was assessed through bioelectric impedance analysis, and liver volume and intrahepatic fat content were assessed by magnetic resonance imaging. Serum and urine samples were obtained. Questionnaires regarding quality of life and LCD-related symptoms were administered.RESULTS:In total, mean weight decreased by 7.4±1.2 kg (range 5.7-9.1 kg), and 71% of the weight loss consisted of fat mass according to bioelectric impedance analysis. From day 0 to day 3, the weight loss (2.0 kg) consisted mainly of water. Liver volume decreased by 18%±6.2%, from 2.1 to 1.7 liters (P<.01), during the first 2 weeks with no further change thereafter. A continuous 51%±16% decrease was seen in intrahepatic fat content. Systolic blood pressure, insulin, and lipids improved, while liver enzymes, glucose levels, and quality of life were unaffected.CONCLUSION:A significant decrease in liver volume (18%) occurred during the first 2 weeks of LCD treatment, and intrahepatic fat gradually decreased throughout the study period. A preoperative 2-week LCD treatment seems sufficient in similar patients.

- BACKGROUND: Although laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is a common bariatric procedure worldwide, no consensus on the optimal technique for the gastrojejunostomy (GJ) has been reached. Circular stapling (CS) immediately results in a GJ of standardized width, whereas linear stapling (LS) requires a technically challenging closure of the stapler defect. The aim was to study differences in outcomes between CS and LS.SETTING: Nationwide Swedish cohort.METHODS: The Scandinavian Obesity Registry (SOReg) included prospective data from 34,284 primary LRYGB patients operated on in 2007-2013. We studied operative time, length of hospital stay, postoperative complications, and percent excess body mass index loss (%EBMIL) after 1 year. Outcomes were assessed through multivariate analysis adjusting for gender, age, preoperative body mass index (BMI), and diabetes.RESULTS: Preoperatively the groups were similar (40.9 yr, BMI 42.4 kg/m(2), 76% female). For CS and LS, operative time and hospital stay were 114 and 73 minutes (P<.001) and 4.6 and 2.0 days (P<.001), respectively. Using LS as a reference, adjusted odds ratio (OR) for CS patients to have anastomotic leakage was 2.8 (95% CI 1.5-5.0), postoperative hemorrhage 1.9 (95% CI 1.2-2.9), wound complication 9.7 (95% CI 6.8-13.9), and marginal ulcer 3.1 (95% CI 1.8-5.3). The %EBMIL at 1 year was 80% for both techniques and 31% of total weight was lost. Follow-up rate at 6 weeks and 1 year was 96% and 73%, respectively.CONCLUSION: CS was found to be associated with disadvantages regarding operative time, hospital stay, and postoperative complications compared with LS.

- Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the most common bariatric procedure worldwide. There are few studies investigating how early return to solid food affects complications.Objective: The aim of this study was to explore how oral intake was resumed in RYGB patients and how the postoperative food regimen affects outcomes, such as complications and length of stay. Setting: Retrospective nationwide registry study.Methods: The Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry included prospective data from RYGB patients operated in 2009 to 2014. A questionnaire assessed the postoperative reintroduction of solid food applied at each bariatric center. The postoperative regimen was established in 23,589 patients. Outcomes were recorded at 30-day follow-up according to the standard Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry routine.Results: Nine percent of patients (n = 2074) returned to solid food within the first week after surgery. Most commonly solid food was resumed in week 4 (37%, n=8659). Median length of stay was 2 days for all. Of all, 2.8% suffered from a severe complication (>Clavien-Dindo 3a). After adjusting for the annual volume of procedures at hospitals, there was no correlation that the timing of solid food affected complication rates. The odds ratio for a severe complication was significantly lower for intermediate- (odds ratio .64 95% confidence interval .48.85) or high (odds ratio .52 95% confidence interval .42.66) volume centers. The rate of leaks and small bowel obstructions were evenly distributed between the different postoperative food regimens.Conclusion: Early return to solid food after RYGB did not affect the risk of severe complications. Patients operated at centers with an annual volume of > 100 procedures have a lower risk of severe complications. (C) 2018 American Society for Bariatric Surgery.
