- Granular study of metabolic responses to alterations in the ratio of dietary macro-nutrients can enhance our understanding of how dietary modifications influence patients with impaired glycemic control. In order to study the effect of diets enriched in fat or carbohydrates, fifteen healthy, normal-weight volunteers received, in a cross-over design, and in a randomized unblinded order, two weeks of an iso-caloric high-fat diet (HFD: 60E% from fat) and a high-carbohydrate diet (HCD: 60E% from carbohydrates). A mixed meal test (MMT) was performed at the end of each dietary period to examine glucose clearance kinetics and insulin and incretin hormone levels, as well as plasma metabolomic profiles. The MMT induced almost identical glycemia and insulinemia following the HFD or HCD. GLP-1 levels were higher after the HFD vs. HCD, whereas GIP did not differ. The HFD, compared to the HCD, increased the levels of several metabolomic markers of risk for the development of insulin resistance, e.g., branched-chain amino acid (valine and leucine), creatine and α-hydroxybutyric acid levels. In normal-weight, healthy volunteers, two weeks of the HFD vs. HCD showed similar profiles of meal-induced glycemia and insulinemia. Despite this, the HFD showed a metabolomic pattern implying a risk for a metabolic shift towards impaired insulin sensitivity in the long run.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Sustainable dietary, behavioural and lifestyle changes are necessary to accomplish weight loss. Aim: Evaluate impact of internal motivation, locus of control and self-efficacy on non-surgical weight loss treatment in patients with severe obesity. Methods: A total of 1196 patients, Body Mass Index ≥35 kg/m2, referred to obesity treatment were included. Visual analogue scales for motivation, locus of control and self-efficacy were completed before starting weight loss treatment. Results: A total of 601 patients (42% drop out) completed 12-month weight loss treatment. After 12 months, 94.6% in the Very Low Energy Diet (VLED) group and 79.4% in the dietary treatment group had a weight loss of ≥5% of their body weight. No statistically significant associations were found between achieved weight loss in the VLED group, and locus of control or self-efficacy. Achieving ≥15% weight loss by dietary treatment was related to a higher score on self-efficacy compared to those who lost <5% in weight or dropped out. Conclusion: Self-efficacy appears to be important for weight loss when on dietary treatment without VLED. Attrition rate was higher among patients with lower score on self-efficacy at baseline. The study indicates that psychological factors associated with adherence to, and completion of weight loss treatment deserve attention.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- There is a paucity of studies on the frequency of binge-eating disorder (BED) and nocturnal eating (NE) and their potential role as barriers in non-surgical weight loss treatment in subjects with severe obesity (body mass index [BMI] >= 35 kg m(2)). The aim was to identify BED and NE, and their effect on weight loss treatment. In total, 1132 (727 women, 405 men), BMI similar to 41 kg/m(2)were patients in a 12-month weight loss programme at a specialist clinic. The questionnaire for eating and weight patterns-revised was completed by the patients before start of treatment. BED was diagnosed in 5.1% of men and 12.4% of women. NE prevalence was 13.5% and 12.7%, respectively. Mean (+/- SEM) 12-month weight loss was less in patients with NE compared to those without (-11.0 +/- 1.5 vs -14.6 +/- 0.7 kg,P= .008) but did not differ in patients with and without BED, (-12.3 +/- 1.9 vs -14.2 +/- 0.6 kg,P= .24). Factors associated with dropout were BED (odds ratio, OR 1.57, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.14-2.17;P= .006) and previous weight loss attempts (OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.0-1.7;P= .02). BED did not seem to hinder weight loss whereas NE resulted in less weight loss in patients with severe obesity who completed a 12-month treatment programme. Previous weight loss attempts affect both dropout and ability to lose weight.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has for long been the gold standard technique in bariatric surgery, especially in the Scandinavian countries. In a tertiary hospital setting, we observed an increasing number of patients with postprandial abdominal pain and nausea, often associated with complex hypoglycemia. Objectives The present study aimed to characterize the clinical patterns, patient characteristics, and clinical outcomes after surgical revision of dysfunctional RYGB at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg, Sweden. Methods This cohort study included patients with RYGB who underwent revision of the jejunojejunostomy (JJ) after 2013. Information was obtained by reviewing medical records and performing complementary interviews. Results Laparoscopic revisional surgery was performed in 115 cases with either adhesiolysis or total revision of the JJ (mean age 41 years, range 19-67 years; 90% women). The median time to assessment after the last revision was 33 months (range 12-75 months). Forty-four (38%) patients reported that they were symptom-free long-term after the intervention, and 32 (28%) patients experienced an improvement in the symptoms that were the indication for revision. However, 31 (27%) patients reported no long-term improvement, and half of them (n = 16) subsequently had a reversal of the anatomy. Eight (7%) patients were lost to follow-up. Conclusions Dysfunction of the JJ appears to be a relatively common cause of postprandial pain and nausea after ante-colic/ante-gastric RYGB. Most patients with symptoms of dysfunction experienced partial or total relief following revisional surgery, but a substantial minority had persistent problems, with one in five eventually undergoing reversal of the anatomy.

- Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an established, effective treatment for severe adolescent obesity. Long-term dietary intake and the relationship to eating-related problems are scarcely evaluated in this population.Assess changes in dietary intake in adolescents after RYGB and explore associations between dietary intake and eating-related problems.Multicenter study in Swedish university hospitals.Diet history, binge eating scale (BES), and Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire were assessed preoperatively and 1, 2, and 5 years after RYGB in 85 adolescents (67% female) aged 16.5 ± 1.2 years with a body mass index (BMI) of 45.5 ± 6.0 kg/m2 and compared with control individuals at 5 years.Five-year BMI change was -28.6% ± 12.7% versus +9.9% ± 18.9% in RYGB patients versus control individuals (P < .001). Through 5 years, RYGB adolescents reported reduced energy intake, portion size of cooked meals at dinner, and milk/yoghurt consumption (P < .01). The BES scores were 9.3 ± 8.3 versus 13.4 ± 10.5 in RYGB patients versus control individuals (P = .04). Association between BES score and energy intake was stronger in control individuals (r = .27 versus r = .62 in RYGB patients versus control individuals, P < .001). At 5 years, lower energy intake was associated with greater BMI loss in all adolescents (r = .33, P < .001). Higher scores in BES and uncontrolled and emotional eating were associated with higher energy intake, cooked meals, candies/chocolates, cakes/cookies, desserts, and sugary drinks (r > .23, P < .04) and lower intake of fruits/berries (r = -.32, P = .044). A higher score in cognitive restraint was associated with a higher intake of cereals and fruits/berries (r > .22, P < .05) and a lower intake of sugary drinks (r = -.24, P< .03).To support optimization of long-term outcomes in adolescent RYGB patients, it is important to provide management strategies to reduce energy intake. Monitoring eating-related problems could identify potential individuals at risk of poor weight loss and to initiate treatment interventions.

- Background Severe obesity in adolescents has a profound impact on current and future health. Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is increasingly used in adolescents internationally. However, to our knowledge, there are no randomised trials examining the currently most used surgical techniques. Our aim was to evaluate changes in BMI and secondary health and safety outcomes after MBS. Methods The Adolescent Morbid Obesity Surgery 2 (AMOS2) study is a randomised, open-label, multicentre trial done at three university hospitals in Sweden (located in Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmo). Adolescents aged 13-16 years with a BMI of at least 35 kg/m2, who had attended treatment for obesity for at least 1 year, passed assessments from a paediatric psychologist and a paediatrician, and had a Tanner pubertal stage of at least 3, were randomly assigned (1:1) to MBS or intensive non-surgical treatment. Exclusion criteria included monogenic or syndromic obesity, major psychiatric illness, and regular self-induced vomiting. Computerised randomisation was stratified for sex and recruitment site. Allocation was concealed for both staff and participants until the end of the inclusion day, and then all participants were unmasked to treatment intervention. One group underwent MBS (primarily gastric bypass), while the other group received intensive non-surgical treatment starting with 8 weeks of low-calorie diet. The primary outcome was 2-year change in BMI, analysed as intention-to-treat. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02378259. Findings 500 people were assessed for eligibility between Aug 27, 2014, and June 7, 2017. 450 participants were excluded (397 did not meet inclusion criteria, 39 declined to participate, and 14 were excluded for various other reasons). Of the 50 remaining participants, 25 (19 females and six males) were randomly assigned to receive MBS and 25 (18 females and seven males) were assigned to intensive non-surgical treatment. Three participants (6%; one in the MBS group and two in the intensive non-surgical treatment group) did not participate in the 2-year follow-up, and in total 47 (94%) participants were assessed for the primary endpoint. Mean age of participants was 15 center dot 8 years (SD 0 center dot 9) and mean BMI at baseline was 42 center dot 6 kg/m2 (SD 5 center dot 2). After 2 years, BMI change was -12 center dot 6 kg/m2 (-35 center dot 9 kg; n=24) among adolescents undergoing MBS (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass [n=23], sleeve gastrectomy [n=2]) and -0 center dot 2 kg/m2 (0 center dot 4 kg; [n=23]) among participants in the intensive non-surgical treatment group (mean difference -12 center dot 4 kg/m2 [95% CI -15 center dot 5 to -9 center dot 3]; p<0 center dot 0001). Five (20%) patients in the intensive non-surgical group crossed over to MBS during the second year. Adverse events (n=4) after MBS were mild but included one cholecystectomy. Regarding safety outcomes, surgical patients had a reduction in bone mineral density, while controls were unchanged after 2 years (z-score change mean difference -0 center dot 9 [95% CI -1 center dot 2 to -0 center dot 6]). There were no significant differences between the groups in vitamin and mineral levels, gastrointestinal symptoms (except less reflux in the surgical group), or in mental health at the 2-year follow-up. Interpretation MBS is an effective and well tolerated treatment for adolescents with severe obesity resulting in substantial weight loss and improvements in several aspects of metabolic health and physical quality of life over 2 years, and should be considered in adolescents with severe obesity.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- 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
- Background: There is a lack of randomized studies examining diabetes remission and dietary intake between patients undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) versus sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Objective: To examine longitudinal differences in diabetes resolution, dietary intake, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) randomized to either RYGB or SG and according to remission of T2D. Setting: Four hospitals in Sweden, 2 of which are university hospitals. Methods: Dietary intake and GI symptoms were calculated from questionnaires and morphometric differences between surgical methods and T2D remission were compared using the Student t test, effect size (ES) for parametric parameters, and Mann-Whitney U test for nonparametric parameters. Results: Five years after RYGB or SG there was no significant difference in the rate of remission of T2D between RYGB and SG (43% versus 20%, P = .176). RYGB (n = 19) patients had greater weight loss than SG patients (n = 14) (26.4 [9.5] versus 13.1 [9.6] kg, P < .001), despite reporting higher daily caloric intake (Δ 669 kcal, P = .059, ES .67) and food weight (Δ 1029 g/d, P = .003, ES 1.11). RYGB patients, compared with SG patients, also ate 1 more fruit per day (P = .023). Pooled data showed no differences between patients with and without T2D remission regarding weight loss, but those in remission drank more nonalcoholic drinks and milk. Conclusions: Five years postoperatively, patients randomized to RYGB reported considerably higher food intake compared with SG despite lower body weight. The reason and importance of the higher food intake after RYGB compared with SG needs to be further studied.

- BACKGROUND: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) lead to lower fasting glucose concentrations, but might cause higher glycemic variability (GV) and increased risk of hypoglycemia. However, it has been sparsely studied in patients without preoperative diabetes under normal living conditions.OBJECTIVES: To study 24-hour interstitial glucose (IG) concentrations, GV, the occurrence of hypoglycemia and dietary intake before and after laparoscopic RYGB and SG in females without diabetes.SETTING: Outpatient bariatric units at a community and a university hospital.METHODS: Continuous glucose monitoring and open-ended food recording over 4 days in 4 study periods: at baseline, during the preoperative low-energy diet (LED) regimen, and at 6 and 12 months postoperatively.RESULTS: Of 47 patients included at baseline, 83%, 81%, and 79% completed the remaining 3 study periods. The mean 24-hour IG concentration was similar during the preoperative LED regimen and after surgery and significantly lower compared to baseline in both surgical groups. GV was significantly increased 6 and 12 months after surgery compared to baseline. The self-reported carbohydrate intake was positively associated with GV after surgery. IG concentrations below 3.9 mmol/L were observed in 14/25 (56%) of RYGB- and 9/12 (75%) of SG-treated patients 12 months after surgery. About 70% of patients with low IG concentrations also reported hypoglycemic symptoms.CONCLUSIONS: The lower IG concentration in combination with the higher GV after surgery, might create a lower margin to hypoglycemia. This could help explain the increased occurrence of hypoglycemic episodes after RYGB and SG.

Lower Interstitial Glucose Concentrations but Higher Glucose Variability during Low-Energy Diet Compared to Regular Diet-An Observational Study in Females with Obesity
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Nutrients. - : MDPI AG. - 2072-6643. ; 13:11

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This is an observational study of interstitial glucose (IG) concentrations, IG variability and dietary intake under free-living conditions in 46 females with obesity but without diabetes. We used continuous glucose monitoring, open-ended food recording and step monitoring during regular dietary intake followed by a low-energy diet (LED). Thirty-nine participants completed both study periods. The mean BMI at baseline was 43.6 & PLUSMN; 6.2 kg/m(2). Three weeks of LED resulted in a mean weight loss of 5.2% with a significant reduction in diurnal IG concentration but with greater glycemic variability observed during LED. The mean 24 h IG concentration decreased from 5.8 & PLUSMN; 0.5 mmol/L during the regular diet period to 5.4 & PLUSMN; 0.5 mmol/L (p < 0.001) during LED, while the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion increased from 1.5 & PLUSMN; 0.7 to 1.7 & PLUSMN; 0.7 mmol/L (p = 0.031). The positive incremental area under the curve at breakfast was significantly larger for LED compared to regular diet. The daily fiber intake and the glycemic index of breakfast meals were significantly associated with the glycemic variability during regular dietary intake. In conclusion, the 24 h mean IG concentration was lower but with more pronounced glycemic variability during LED compared to a regular diet.

- Dumping syndrome is a common but underdiagnosed complication of gastric and oesophageal surgery. We initiated a Delphi consensus process with international multidisciplinary experts. We defined the scope, proposed statements and searched electronic databases to survey the literature. Eighteen experts participated in the literature summary and voting process evaluating 62 statements. We evaluated the quality of evidence using grading of recommendations assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) criteria. Consensus (defined as >80% agreement) was reached for 33 of 62 statements, including the definition and symptom profile of dumping syndrome and its effect on quality of life. The panel agreed on the pathophysiological relevance of rapid passage of nutrients to the small bowel, on the role of decreased gastric volume capacity and release of glucagon-like peptide 1. Symptom recognition is crucial, and the modified oral glucose tolerance test, but not gastric emptying testing, is useful for diagnosis. An increase in haematocrit >3% or in pulse rate >10 bpm 30 min after the start of the glucose intake are diagnostic of early dumping syndrome, and a nadir hypoglycaemia level <50 mg/dl is diagnostic of late dumping syndrome. Dietary adjustment is the agreed first treatment step; acarbose is effective for late dumping syndrome symptoms and somatostatin analogues are preferred for patients who do not respond to diet adjustments and acarbose. Dumping syndrome is a frequent complication of oesophageal and gastric surgery, as well as bariatric surgery; however, guidance on how to manage patients with this condition is lacking. In this Evidence-based guideline, the authors use a Delphi consensus process to develop uniform guidance for the definition, diagnosis and management of dumping syndrome.
