RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a chronic health condition with a multifactorial etiology, resulting from the interplay of genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors leading to an energy imbalance. OBJECTIVE: To characterize hospitalizations for bariatric surgeries through the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) in the state of Paraná from 2012 to 2022. METHODS: This is a descriptive and retrospective study, utilizing a time series design, based on secondary data. Public data from the SUS Hospital Information System for the period from 2012 to 2022 were consulted, focusing on the population of obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery. RESULTS: In Paraná, concerning SUS procedures data from 2012 to 2022, 39,793 hospitalizations for bariatric surgeries were observed. Among the five modalities, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass predominated with 38,849 hospitalizations (97.6%), showing a lower mortality rate. CONCLUSION: The research highlights a notable variation in costs, emphasizing the importance of economic evaluation. The correlation between obesity and diabetes underscores the complexity of the situation, justifying the superiority of surgical treatment in comorbidity remission. The study reveals a decline in bariatric surgeries in 2020, coinciding with the pandemic, and alerts to the increased vulnerability of obese patients to SARS-CoV-2.

RESUMO Contexto: A obesidade é uma condição crônica de saúde que apresenta etiologia multifatorial. Resulta da combinação de fatores genéticos, ambientais e comportamentais, os quais, quando interagem, levam a um desbalanço energético. Objetivo: Caracterizar as hospitalizações pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) para realização de cirurgias bariátricas no estado do Paraná, no período de 2012 a 2022. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo e retrospectivo, do tipo série temporal, baseado em dados secundários. Foram consultados os dados públicos contidos no sistema de informações hospitalares do SUS, no período de 2012 a 2022. A população analisada foram pacientes obesos submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica. Resultados: No Paraná, com relação aos dados de procedimentos realizados no SUS, no período de 2012 a 2022, foram observadas 39.793 hospitalizações para a realização de cirurgias bariátricas. Dentre as cinco modalidades, houve predomínio da gastroplastia em Y de Roux, com 38.849 hospitalizações (97,6%), com menor taxa de mortalidade. Conclusão: A pesquisa ressalta uma notável variação nos custos, enfatizando a importância da avaliação econômica. A correlação entre obesidade e diabetes evidencia a complexidade da situação, justificando a superioridade do tratamento cirúrgico na remissão de comorbidades. O estudo mostra uma queda nas cirurgias bariátricas em 2020, coincidindo com a pandemia, e alerta para a maior vulnerabilidade de pacientes obesos ao SARS-CoV-2.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of pre and postnatal exposure to a glyphosate-based herbicide on glucose metabolism and liver histology in adult F1 mice offspring. METHODS: Female mice (C57Bl/6) received 0.5% of glyphosate (Roundup Original DI®) in drinking water or purified water (Glyphosate Group and Control Group respectively) during pregnancy and lactation. Offspring (F1) were submitted to glucose and insulin tolerance tests and euthanized on postnatal day 150. Body and plasma parameters, and liver histology were analyzed. RESULTS: Exposure to glyphosate reduced maternal body weight gain during pregnancy and lactation, with no impacts on litter size. Pre and postnatal exposure to glyphosate did not affect body parameters but increased glucose tolerance on postnatal day 60. In spite of glucose tolerance normalization by postnatal day 143, this effect was associated with higher insulin sensitivity relative to mice in the Control-F1 Group. Mice in the Glyphosate-F1 Group had mild and moderate lobular inflammation in the liver. CONCLUSION: Maternal exposure to glyphosate affected insulin sensitivity and caused hepatic inflammation in adult F1 mice offspring.

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of vagotomy, when associated with splenectomy, on adiposity and glucose homeostasis in Wistar rats. METHODS: Rats were divided into 4 groups: vagotomized (VAG), splenectomized (SPL), VAG + SPL, and SHAM. Glucose tolerance tests were performed, and physical and biochemical parameters evaluated. Glucose-induced insulin secretion and protein expression (Glut2/glucokinase) were measured in isolated pancreatic islets. Pancreases were submitted to histological and immunohistochemical analyses, and vagus nerve neural activity was recorded. RESULTS: The vagotomized group presented with reduced body weight, growth, and adiposity; high food intake; reduced plasma glucose and triglyceride levels; and insulin resistance. The association of SPL with the VAG surgery attenuated, or abolished, the effects of VAG and reduced glucose-induced insulin secretion and interleukin-1ß area in ß cells, in addition to lowering vagal activity. CONCLUSIONS: The absence of the spleen attenuated or blocked the effects of VAG on adiposity, triglycerides and glucose homeostasis, suggesting a synergistic effect of both on metabolism. The vagus nerve and spleen modulate the presence of interleukin-1ß in ß cells, possibly because of the reduction of glucose-induced insulin secretion, indicating a bidirectional flow between autonomous neural firing and the spleen, with repercussions for the endocrine pancreas.

One of the most consumed pesticides in the world is glyphosate, the active ingredient in the herbicide ROUNDUP®. Studies demonstrate that glyphosate can act as an endocrine disruptor and that exposure to this substance at critical periods in the developmental period may program the fetus to induce reproductive damage in adulthood. Our hypothesis is that maternal exposure to glyphosate during pregnancy and lactation in mice will affect the development of male reproductive organs, impairing male fertility during adult life. Female mice consumed 0.5% glyphosate-ROUNDUP® in their drinking water [glyphosate-based herbicide (GBH) group] or filtered water [control (CTRL) group] from the fourth day of pregnancy until the end of the lactation period. Male F1 offspring were designated, according to their mother's treatment, as CTRL-F1 and GBH-F1. Female mice that drank glyphosate displayed reduced body weight (BW) gain during gestation, but no alterations in litter size. Although GBH male F1 offspring did not exhibit modifications in BW, they demonstrated delayed testicular descent. Furthermore, at PND150, GBH-F1 mice presented a lower number of spermatozoa in the cauda epididymis and reduced epithelial height of the seminiferous epithelium. Notably, intratesticular testosterone concentrations were enhanced in GBH-F1 mice; we show that it is an effect associated with increased plasma and pituitary concentrations of luteinizing hormone. Therefore, data indicate that maternal exposure to glyphosate-ROUNDUP® during pregnancy and lactation may lead to decreased spermatogenesis and disruptions in hypothalamus-pituitary-testicular axis regulation in F1 offspring.
