RESUMO
Variations in levels of some adipokines, myokines, osteokines, hepatokines and inflammatory cytokines contribute to abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism. The aim of this study was to determine the pattern of adiponectin, osteocalcin (OCN), irisin, FGF-21, and MCP-1 according to the body size phenotype of middle-aged women, and their associations with BMI, visceral adipose tissue (VAT), and HOMA-IR. A cross-sectional study in 265 women aged from 40 to 65 years was performed. The biochemical characteristics were evaluated in metabolically healthy normal weight, metabolically unhealthy normal weight, metabolically healthy obese, and metabolically unhealthy obese women. There was an association of OCN with BMI (r = -0.107; p = 0.047); adiponectin with BMI (r = -0.217; p = 0.001), insulin (r = -0.415; p = 0.0001), HOMA-IR (r = -0.429; p = 0.0001), and VAT (r = -0.134; p = 0.025); irisin with BMI (r = 0.604; p = 0.001), insulin (r = 0.446; p = 0.0001), HOMA-IR (r = 0.452; p = 0.0001), and VAT (r = 0.645; p = 0.0001); FGF-21 with insulin (r = -0.337; p= 0.030) and HOMA-IR (r = -0.341; p = 0.03); and MCP-1 with BMI (r = 0.481; p = 0.0001), VAT (r = 0.497; p = 0.001), insulin (r = 0.298; p= 0.001), and HOMA-IR (r = 0.255; p = 0.004). A multivariate analysis showed that an elevation of OCN (OR 1.4 (95%CI 1.06-1.81)) and a reduction of adiponectin (OR 0.9 (0.84-0.96)) were associated factors for a metabolic unhealthy phenotype in normal weight participants. Likewise, higher irisin (OR 1.007 (1.003-1.011)) and MCP-1 (1.044 (1.008-1.083)) were risk factors for a metabolic unhealthy phenotype in woman with obesity. OCN, adiponectin, irisin, FGF-21, and MCP-1 are associated with some metabolic parameters such as BMI, HOMA-IR, and VAT, and could be possible biomarkers of an unhealthy metabolic phenotype in middle-aged women.
RESUMO
Resumen Objetivo: La cirugía bariátrica es un procedimiento para disminuir de peso a largo plazo en pacientes con obesidad. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar los niveles de ghrelina y la reducción del peso de acuerdo al tipo de cirugía bariátrica, comparando el bypass de una sola anastomosis y la gastrectomía formadora de manga. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio de cohorte que incluyó a 50 pacientes con obesidad, 22 mini-bypass y 28 mangas gástricas. Se evaluó el peso corporal y las concentraciones de ghrelina en la etapa prequirúrgica, en el día 7 y en los meses 1, 3 y 6 después de la cirugía. Resultados: Del total de pacientes, el 86% presentaron > 50% pérdida del exceso de peso (PEPP) a los 6 meses. La concentración de ghrelina disminuyó desde la primera semana en el grupo total de participantes. A los 6 meses, se observó mayor reducción de ghrelina en los pacientes con la manga gástrica (4.636 ± 2.535 vs 1.340 ± 1.001 pg/mL, p < 0,0001). El PEPP en pacientes con mini-bypass fue superior, en comparación con manga gástrica. Conclusiones: La comparación entre las técnicas indicó que, a los 6 meses de evolución posquirúrgica, los pacientes con mini-bypass presentaron mayor reducción de peso corporal y del nivel de ghrelina, en comparación con el grupo de manga gástrica. La concentración de ghrelina es una variable que participa en el control de peso; sin embargo, el tipo de abordaje quirúrgico probablemente tiene mayor relación con la pérdida de peso en estos pacientes.
Introduction: Bariatric surgery is a procedure to reduce weight in the long term in patients with obesity. The objective of this study was to evaluate ghrelin levels and weight reduction according to the type of bariatric surgery, comparing the single anastomosis bypass and the sleeve-forming gastrectomy. Materials and Method: Cohort study that included 50 patients with obesity, 22 Mini-Bypass and 28 gastric sleeve. Body weight and ghrelin concentrations were evaluated in the presurgical stage, on day 7 and in months 1, 3 and 6 after surgery. Results: Of the total of patients, 86% had > 50% excess weight loss (PEPP) at 6 months. The concentration of ghrelin decreased within the first week of the intervention. At 6 months, greater reduction of ghrelin was observed in patients with gastric sleeve (4636 ± 2535 vs 1340 ± 1001 pg/mL, p < 0.0001). The PEPP in patients with Mini-Bypass was superior, compared to gastric sleeve. Conclusion: The comparison between the techniques indicated that, after 6 months of post-surgical evolution, patients with Mini-Bypass had a greater reduction in body weight and ghrelin levels, compared to the gastric sleeve group. Ghrelin concentration is a variable that participates in weight control; however, the type of surgical approach is probably more related to weight loss in these patients.

RESUMEN Introducción: El perímetro de cuello en la actualidad es una medida útil asociada de manera significativa a la resistencia a la insulina y al riesgo cardiometabólico. Objetivo: Determinar la relación entre el perímetro de cuello y los factores de riesgo cardiometabólico en mujeres de 45 a 60 años de edad. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio en 270 mujeres aparentemente sanas, de 45 a 60 años de edad. Se tomaron medidas antropométricas como peso corporal, índice de masa corporal, perímetro de cintura, perímetro de cuello y el tejido adiposo visceral por bioimpedancia. Se determinaron niveles séricos de glucosa, perfil lipídico (colesterol, triglicéridos, HDL-colesterol, LDL-colesterol), HbA1c, insulina y proteína C reactiva. Resultados: El índice de masa corporal de las participantes fue de 28,2 ± 4,2. Se encontró que 38,1 por ciento de las mujeres presentaban síndrome metabólico y mayor perímetro de cuello, en comparación con las participantes sin síndrome (36,8 + 2,1 vs 35,1 + 1,6 cm, respectivamente, p< 0,0001). El perímetro de cuello se asoció positivamente con índice de masa corporal (r= 0,690, p= 0,0001), tejido adiposo visceral (r= 0,548, p= 0,0001), circunferencia de Cintura (r= 0,640, p< 0,0001), glucosa (r= 0,251, p= 0,0001), triglicéridos (r= 0,143, p= 0,019), HbA1c (r= 0,160, p= 0,010) y proteína C reactiva (r= 0,342, p= 0,001). Conclusiones: Las mujeres con incremento en el perímetro de cuello presentan un perfil de riesgo cardiometabólico aumentado. La medición del perímetro de cuello representa un método útil y práctico en la predicción del riesgo cardiometabólico(AU)
ABSTRACT Introduction: Neck´s perimeter is nowadays a useful measure significantly associated to insulin resistance and to cardiometabolic risk. Objective: To determine the relation between the neck´s perimeter and the cardiometabolic risk factors in women from 45 to 60 years old. Methods: A study was performed in 270 apparently healthy women, aging 45 to 60 years old. Anthropometric measurements were taken such as weight, body mass index, waist circumference, neck´s perimeter and visceral adipose tissue by bioelectrical impedance analysis. There were identified serum levels of glucose, lipid profile (cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol), HbA1c, insulin and C-reactive protein. Results: The body mass index of the participants was 28.2 ± 4.2. It was found that 38.1 percent of the women had a metabolic syndrome and a higher perimeter of neck, in comparison with participants without the syndrome (36.8 + 2.1 vs 35.1 + 1.6 cm, respectively, p< 0.0001). The neck´s perimeter was positively associated with body mass index (r = 0.690, p= 0.0001), visceral adipose tissue (r = 0.548, p= 0.0001), waist circumference (r = 0.640, p< 0.0001), glucose (r = 0.251, p= 0.0001), triglycerides (r = 0.143, p = 0.019), HbA1c (r = 0.160, p = 0.010) and C-reactive protein (r = 0.342, p = 0.001). Conclusions: Women with an increase in the neck´s perimeter have a profile of increased cardiometabolic risk. The measurement of neck´s perimeter represents a useful and practical method for the prediction of cardiometabolic risk(AU)
