Does Sleeve Gastrectomy Worsen Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Obese Patients? A Prospective Study

Does Sleeve Gastrectomy Worsen Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Obese Patients? A Prospective Study

Methods: GERD was evaluated by the Modified Italian Gastroesophageal reflux disease—Health-Related Quality of Life
(MI-GERD-HRQL) questionnaire, pH-manometry, endoscopy, and Rx-esophagogram, before and 12 months after
surgery. Based on these exams, patients without GERD underwent LSG, and patients with GERD underwent LGB.
Results: Thirteen and six patients underwent LSG and LGB, respectively. After LSG, the only statistically significant
difference observed at pH-manometry was the median DeMeester score, from 5.7 to 22.7 (P = .0026). De novo GERD

The effect of standard versus longer intestinal bypass on glp-1 regulation and glucose metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing roux-en-y gastric bypass. The long-limb study

OBJECTIVE Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) characteristically enhances postprandial levels of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), a mechanism that contributes to its profound glucose-lowering effects. This enhancement is thought to be triggered by bypass of food to the distal small intestine with higher densities of neuroendocrine L-cells.

Management of surgical complications of previous bariatric surgery in pregnant women. A systematic review from the BARIA-MAT Study Group

Considering the large and increasing population of women of childbearing age with history of bariatric surgery, surgical complications of bariatric surgery during pregnancy may become more frequent in the future. The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical presentation, diagnostic procedures, and treatment of surgical complications of bariatric surgery during pregnancies.
