RESUMO
Importance: The comparative effectiveness of the most common operations in the long-term management of dyslipidemia is not clear. Objective: To compare 4-year outcomes associated with vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) vs Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) for remission and relapse of dyslipidemia. Design, Setting, and Participants: This retrospective comparative effectiveness study was conducted from January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2016, with follow-up until December 31, 2018. Participants included patients with dyslipidemia at the time of surgery who underwent VSG (4142 patients) or RYGB (2853 patients). Patients were part of a large integrated health care system in Southern California. Analysis was conducted from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2021. Exposures: RYGB and VSG. Main Outcomes and Measures: Dyslipidemia remission and relapse were assessed in each year of follow-up for as long as 4 years after surgery. Results: A total of 8265 patients were included, with a mean (SD) age of 46 (11) years; 6591 (79.8%) were women, 3545 (42.9%) were Hispanic, 1468 (17.8%) were non-Hispanic Black, 2985 (36.1%) were non-Hispanic White, 267 (3.2%) were of other non-Hispanic race, and the mean (SD) body mass index (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) was 44 (7) at the time of surgery. Dyslipidemia outcomes at 4 years were ascertained for 2168 patients (75.9%) undergoing RYGB and 3999 (73.9%) undergoing VSG. Remission was significantly higher for those who underwent RYGB (824 [38.0%]) compared with VSG (1120 [28.0%]) (difference in the probability of remission, 0.10; 95% CI, 0.01-0.19), with no differences in relapse (455 [21.0%] vs 960 [24.0%]). Without accounting for relapse, remission of dyslipidemia after 4 years was 58.9% (1279) for those who underwent RYGB and 51.9% (2079) for those who underwent VSG. Four-year differences between operations were most pronounced for patients 65 years or older (0.39; 95% CI, 0.27-0.51), those with cardiovascular disease (0.43; 95% CI, 0.24-0.62), or non-Hispanic Black patients (0.13; 95% CI, 0.01-0.25) and White patients (0.13; 95% CI, 0.03-0.22). Conclusions and Relevance: In this large, racially and ethnically diverse cohort of patients who underwent bariatric and metabolic surgery in clinical practices, RYGB was associated with higher rates of dyslipidemia remission after 4 years compared with VSG. However, almost one-quarter of all patients experienced relapse, suggesting that patients should be monitored closely throughout their postoperative course to maximize the benefits of these operations for treatment of dyslipidemia.

BACKGROUND: Comparative evidence is needed when deciding which bariatric operation to undergo for long-term cardiovascular risk reduction. OBJECTIVES: The Effectiveness of Gastric Bypass vs. Gastric Sleeve for Cardiovascular Disease (ENGAGE CVD) study compared the effectiveness of vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) operations for reduction of the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association-predicted 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk 5 years after surgery. SETTING: Data for this study came from a large integrated healthcare system in the Southern California region of the United States. This is one of the most ethnically diverse (64% non-White) bariatric populations in the literature. METHODS: The ENGAGE CVD cohort consisted of 22,095 patients who underwent VSG or RYGB from 2009-2016. The VSG and RYGB were compared using a local instrumental variable approach to address observed and unobserved confounding, as well as to conduct heterogeneity of treatment effects for patients of different age groups, baseline-predicted 10-year CVD risk using the ASCVD risk score, and those who had type 2 diabetes (T2D) at the time of surgery. RESULTS: Patients (2771 RYGB and 6256 VVSG) were primarily women (80.6%), Hispanic or non-Hispanic Black (63.7%), and 46 ± 10 years of age, with a body mass index of 43.40 ± 6.5 kg/m2. The predicted 10-year ASCVD risk at surgery was 4.1% for VSG and 5.1% for RYGB, decreasing to 2.6% for VSG and 2.8% for RYGB 1 year postoperatively. By 5 years after surgery, patients remained with relatively low risk levels (3.0% for VSG and 3.3% for RYGB) and there were no significant differences in predicted 10-year ASCVD risk between VSG and RYGB at any time. CONCLUSION: Predicted 10-year ASCVD risk was low in this population and remained low up to 5 years for those with diabetes, Black and Hispanic patients, and older adults. Literature reporting significant differences between VSG and RYGB in 10-year ASCVD risk may be a result of residual confounding.

OBJECTIVE: There are few studies testing the amount of weight loss necessary to achieve initial remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) following bariatric surgery and no published studies with use of weight loss to predict initial T2DM remission in sleeve gastrectomy (SG) patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: With Cox proportional hazards models we examined the relationship between initial T2DM remission and percent total weight loss (%TWL) after bariatric surgery. Categories of %TWL were included in the model as time-varying covariates. RESULTS: Of patients (N = 5,928), 73% were female; mean age was 49.8 ± 10.3 years and BMI 43.8 ± 6.92 kg/m2, and 57% had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Over an average follow-up of 5.9 years, 71% of patients experienced initial remission of T2DM (mean time to remission 1.0 year). With 0-5% TWL used as the reference group in Cox proportional hazards models, patients were more likely to remit with each 5% increase in TWL until 20% TWL (hazard ratio range 1.97-2.92). When categories >25% TWL were examined, all patients had a likelihood of initial remission similar to that of 20-25% TWL. Patients who achieved >20% TWL were more likely to achieve initial T2DM remission than patients with 0-5% TWL, even if they were using insulin at the time of surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Weight loss after bariatric surgery is strongly associated with initial T2DM remission; however, above a threshold of 20% TWL, rates of initial T2DM remission did not increase substantially. Achieving this threshold is also associated with initial remission even in patients who traditionally experience lower rates of remission, such as patients taking insulin.
