The Efficacy and Safety of Laparoscopic Single-Anastomosis Duodeno-ileostomy with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S) in Mid- and Long-Term Follow-Up: a Systematic Review.

This systematic review of 10 studies aimed to investigate the mid- and long-term results of duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) according to the PRISMA guideline. Related articles, which reported outcomes of laparoscopic SADI-S with follow-up ≥ 3 years, were selected and analyzed. The percentage of excess weight loss (EWL) was 70.9-88.7%, and 80.4% at 6, and 10 years, respectively. The more common late complications were malabsorption (6.3%) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) (3.6%). The remission rates of hypertension, diabetes, GERD, obstructive sleep apnea, and dyslipidemia were 62.9%, 81.3%, 53.2%, 60.9%, and 69.7%, respectively. In conclusion, SADI-S is a safe and effective surgical technique with durable weight loss and a high rate of comorbidity resolution in mid and long term.

Does One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass Expose Patients to Gastroesophageal Reflux: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the incidence of new-onset gastroesophageal reflux, reflux change, esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus, and revision due to reflux, gastritis, and marginal ulcer after one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). We performed subgroup analyses based on primary and revisional OAGB and time of follow-up. Meta-analysis of 87 studies with 27,775 patients showed a 6% rate of new-onset reflux after OAGB. Preoperative reflux status did not change significantly after OAGB. The rate of esophagitis and Barrett's esophagus was 15% and 1%, respectively. The new-onset reflux rate after OAGB was significantly higher than gastric bypass but not different with sleeve gastrectomy. The current study showed a relatively low rate of reflux and its complications after OAGB, but it was significantly higher than Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Impact of bariatric surgery on carotid intima-media thickness, flow-mediated dilation, and nitrite-mediated dilation: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Obesity is considered one of the independent risk factors for atherosclerosis and is strongly correlated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Previous studies showed carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), flow-mediated dilation (FMD), and nitrite-mediated dilatation (NMD) are reliable non-invasive markers of arterial damage and dysfunction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of bariatric surgery on CIMT, FMD, and NMD markers in patients with obesity. A systematic search was performed in the PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases until May 2022. All the English-published studies on the effect of bariatric surgery on CIMT, FMD, and NMD were included. A quantitative meta-analysis was performed, as well as subgroup analyses for the type of procedure and duration of follow-up. Meta-analysis of 41 studies with 1639 patients showed CIMT was significantly reduced by .11 mm after bariatric surgery (95% CI, -.14 to -.08; P < .001; mean follow-up = 10.8 mo). The pooled analysis of 23 studies with 1106 patients showed an increase of FMD by 4.57% after bariatric surgery (95% CI, 2.69-6.44; P < .001; mean follow-up = 11.5 mo). The results of a pooled analysis of 12 studies with 346 patients showed a significant increase of NMD by 2.46% after bariatric surgery (95% CI, .99-3.94; P < .001; mean follow-up = 11.4 mo). The random effect meta-regression demonstrated that baseline CIMT and FMD significantly affect the changes in CIMT and FMD. This meta-analysis showed bariatric surgery can improve CIMT, FMD, and NMD markers in patients with obesity. These improvements show the known effect of metabolic surgery in decreasing cardiovascular risk.

The Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Cardiac Structure, and Systolic and Diastolic Function in Patients with Obesity: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

The purpose of this study was to provide pooled data from all studies on the impact of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure, and systolic and diastolic function evaluated by either echocardiography or cardiac magnetic resonance. PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched. Almost all of cardiac left-side structural indices improved significantly after bariatric surgery. However, right-side structural indices did not change significantly. Left ventricular ejection fraction and most of the diastolic function indices improved significantly after the bariatric surgery. The subgroup analysis showed that the left ventricular mass index decreased more in long-term follow-up (≥ 12 months). In addition, subgroup analysis of studies based on surgery type did not reveal any difference in outcomes between gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy groups.
