ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk modification in patients with optimal weight loss (OWL) versus suboptimal weight loss SWL following MBS.METHODS:
This was a retrospective analysis. The 10-year risk CVD was estimated before and after one year of surgery using the "Framingham Score".RESULTS:
191 patients were included in our study. Mean baseline Framingham score was 7.2 â± â6.9%. According to the score, 54% of patients were classified as low risk (n â= â104), 23% as moderate (n â= â43), 20% moderately high (n â= â39) and 3% as high risk (n â= â5). One year after surgery, 91% of the patients showed reduction of their Framingham score. Mean CVD risk score decreased significantly to 4.1 â± â3.7% when compared to baseline (p-value is â< â0.001); 80% of patients classified as low risk (n â= â153), 13% as moderate (n â= â25), 7% moderately high (n â= â13) and 0% as high risk (n â= â0).CONCLUSION:
Weight loss after bariatric surgery reduces CVD risk scores and the magnitude of effect correlates with the degree of weight loss.Palavras-chave
