ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Obesity-related comorbidities may relapse in patients with weight regain after bariatric surgery. However, HDL cholesterol (HDLc) levels increase after surgery and seem to remain stable despite a gradual increase in BMI. The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of weight regain after bariatric surgery on HDL cholesterol. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
This is a retrospective, observational, cohort study in patients who underwent bariatric surgery in the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau (Barcelona) between 2007 and 2015. Patients without at least 5 years of follow-up after surgery, under fibrate treatment, and those who required revisional surgery were excluded from the analysis. Data were collected at baseline, 3 and 6 months after surgery, and then annually until 5 years post-surgery.RESULTS:
One hundred fifty patients were analyzed. 93.3% of patients reached > 20% of total weight loss after surgery. At 5th year, 37% of patients had regained > 15% of nadir weight, 60% had regained > 10%, and 22% had regained < 5% of nadir weight. No differences were found in HDLc levels between the different groups of weight regain, nor in the % of change in HDLc levels between nadir weight and 5 years, or in the proportion of patients with normal HDLc concentrations either.CONCLUSION:
HDLc remains stable regardless of weight regain after bariatric surgery.Palabras clave
