Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery but not vertical sleeve gastrectomy decreases bone mass in male rats.

ABSTRACT: The most effective treatment for obesity is bariatric surgery. However, there is increasing concern that bariatric surgery can cause nutrient deficiencies that translate into metabolic bone disease. Whether this is true for all surgery types is not yet clear. We therefore investigated the effects of 2 commonly applied bariatric surgeries (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass [RYGB] and vertical sleeve gastrectomy) on energy and bone metabolism in rats 60 days after surgery. Both surgeries resulted in similar reductions of body weight, body fat, and food intake. Glucose tolerance was improved to a similar extent after both surgeries and was accompanied by increased postprandial secretion of glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide. Using microcomputed tomography, we found that, relative to sham-operated rats, bone volume was significantly reduced after RYGB but not vertical sleeve gastrectomy. RYGB rats also had markedly reduced lipid absorption from the intestine and significantly lower serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and calcium levels. Importantly, dietary supplementation with calcium and vitamin D could not fully rescue the reduced bone volume after RYGB surgery. Both surgeries resulted in a significant increase in stomach pH, which may have worsened the malabsorption in RYGB rats. Our findings suggest that bone loss in RYGB rats is not exclusively driven by calcium and vitamin D malabsorption but also by additional factors that may not be rescuable by dietary supplementation. These data point toward important similarities and differences between bariatric procedures that should be considered in clinical settings as guidance for which procedure will be best for specific patient populations.

Project description:BackgroundPregnancies occurring after bariatric surgery are associated with various perinatal complications. However, there may be differences in the type of perinatal complications occurring after different methods of bariatric surgery. The aim of the current study was to compare adverse perinatal outcomes in pregnant women following Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) vs. Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG).MethodsA systematic database search was performed in PubMed, Embase, Scopus and CINAHL. Observational studies comparing perinatal outcomes post-bariatric (RYGB and SG) surgery to pregnancies without prior surgery were selected. Outcomes of interest were: maternal body mass index (BMI) at the time of conception, mode of delivery, time from surgery to conception, birth weight, gestational age and intrauterine fetal death. Article selection, risk of bias assessment and data extraction, were performed by two authors. The study protocol was published in its revised form in PROSPERO, registration number: CRD42021234480.ResultsA total of 3201 records were extracted. After duplicates were removed, 3143 records were screened for inclusion. Six studies fitted the selection criteria, of which four studies were RYGB and two SG (1100 post-RYGB vs. 209 post-SG). For the included studies, higher incidence of both SGA (22.9%, 11.9%, 14.2%) and LGA (4.2%, 4.8%, 1.7%) in SG compared to Roux-en-Y (SGA: 8.8%, 7.7%, 11.5%, 8.3% and LGA: 3.4%, 0.7%) were observed. SG had a shorter surgery to conception interval as compared to RYGB. Risk of bias assessment was moderate to serious for the studies included in the review, with bias in selection of participants being the major reason.ConclusionOur systematic review demonstrated no major differences in BMI, mode of delivery, birthweight, gestational age, or rates of intrauterine death between women having undergone RYGB vs. SG. The rate of SGA and LGA births were higher in the SG group, but this group also had a shorter surgery to conception interval. Future studies are indicated to counsel women of reproductive age on the most appropriate type of bariatric surgery that is associated with the best perinatal outcomes.
