OCDD: an obesity and co-morbid disease database.

ABSTRACT: Background:Obesity is a medical condition that is known for increased body mass index (BMI). It is also associated with chronic low level inflammation. Obesity disrupts the immune-metabolic homeostasis by changing the secretion of adipocytes. This affects the end-organs, and gives rise to several diseases including type 2 diabetes, asthma, non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases and cancers. These diseases are known as co-morbid diseases. Several studies have explored the underlying molecular mechanisms of developing obesity associated comorbid diseases. To understand the development and progression of diseases associated with obesity, we need a detailed scenario of gene interactions and the distribution of the responsible genes in human system. Results:Obesity and Co-morbid Disease Database (OCDD) is designed for relating obesity and its co-morbid diseases using literature mining, and computational and systems biology approaches. OCDD is aimed to investigate the genes associated with comorbidity. Several existing databases have been used to extract molecular interactions and functional annotations of each gene. The degree of co-morbid associations has been measured and made available to the users. The database is available at http://www.isical.ac.in/~systemsbiology/OCDD/home.php. Conclusions:The main objective of the database is to derive the relations among the genes that are involved in both obesity and its co-morbid diseases. Functional annotation of common genes, gene interaction networks and key driver analyses have made the database a valuable and comprehensive resource for investigating the causal links between obesity and co-morbid diseases.

Project description:Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has reached wide popularity during the last 15 years, due to the limited morbidity and mortality rates, and the very good weight loss results and effects on comorbid conditions. However, there are concerns regarding the effects of LSG on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The interpretation of the current evidence is challenged by the fact that the LSG technique is not standardized, and most studies investigate the presence of GERD by assessing symptoms and the use of acid reducing medications only. A few studies objectively investigated gastroesophageal function and the reflux profile by esophageal manometry and 24-h pH monitoring, reporting postoperative normalization of esophageal acid exposure in up to 85% of patients with preoperative GERD, and occurrence of de novo GERD in about 5% of cases. There is increasing evidence showing the key role of the surgical technique on the incidence of postoperative GERD. Main technical issues are a relative narrowing of the mid portion of the gastric sleeve, a redundant upper part of the sleeve (both depending on the angle under which the sleeve is stapled), and the presence of a hiatal hernia. Concomitant hiatal hernia repair is recommended. To date, either medical therapy with proton pump inhibitors or conversion of LSG to laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass are the available options for the management of GERD after LSG. Recently, new minimally invasive approaches have been proposed in patients with GERD and hypotensive LES: the LINX® Reflux Management System procedure and the Stretta® procedure. Large studies are needed to assess the safety and long-term efficacy of these new approaches. In conclusion, the recent publication of pH monitoring data and the new insights in the association between sleeve morphology and GERD control have led to a wider acceptance of LSG as bariatric procedure also in obese patients with GERD, as recently stated in the 5th International Consensus Conference on sleeve gastrectomy.

Project description:BackgroundVascular risk factors, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), are associated with poorer outcomes following many neurodegenerative diseases, including hemorrhagic stroke and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Combined AD and DM co-morbidities are associated with an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke and increased Medicare costs. Therefore, we hypothesized that patients with DM in combination with AD, termed DM/AD, would have increased hemorrhagic stroke severity.MethodsKentucky Appalachian Stroke Registry (KApSR) is a database of demographic and clinical data from patients that live in Appalachia, a distinct region with increased health disparities and stroke severity. Inpatients with a primary indication of hemorrhagic stroke were selected from KApSR for retrospective analysis and were separated into four groups: DM only, AD only, neither, or both.ResultsHemorrhagic stroke patients (2,071 total) presented with either intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), n=1,448, or subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), n=623. When examining all four groups, subjects with AD were significantly older (AD+, 80.9±6.6 yrs) (DM+/AD+, 77.4±10.0 yrs) than non AD subjects (DM-/AD-, 61.3±16.5 yrs) and (DM+, 66.0±12.5 yrs). A higher percentage of females were among the AD+ group and a higher percentage of males among the DM+/AD+ group. Interestingly, after adjusting for multiple comparison, DM+/AD+ subjects were ten times as likely to suffer a moderate to severe stroke based on a National Institute of Health Stroke (NIHSS) upon admission [odds ratio (95% CI)] compared to DM-/AD- [0.1 (0.02-0.55)], DM+ [0.11 (0.02-0.59)], and AD+ [0.09(0.01-0.63)]. The odds of DM+/AD+ subjects having an unfavorable discharge destination (death, hospice, long-term care) was significant (P<0.05) from DM-/AD- [0.26 (0.07-0.96)] when adjusting for sex, age, and comorbidities.ConclusionsIn our retrospective analysis utilizing KApSR, regardless of adjusting for age, sex, and comorbidities, DM+/AD+ patients were significantly more likely to have had a moderate or severe stroke leading to an unfavorable outcome following hemorrhagic stroke.

Project description:Background There is a paucity of outcome data on patients who are morbidly obese (MO) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement. We aimed to determine their periprocedural and midterm outcomes and investigate the impact of obesity phenotype. Methods and Results Consecutive patients who are MO (body mass index, ≥40 kg/m2, or ≥35 kg/m2 with obesity-related comorbidities; n=910) with severe aortic stenosis who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement in 18 tertiary hospitals were compared with a nonobese cohort (body mass index, 18.5-29.9 kg/m2, n=2264). Propensity-score matching resulted in 770 pairs. Pre-transcatheter aortic valve replacement computed tomography scans were centrally analyzed to assess adipose tissue distribution; epicardial, abdominal visceral and subcutaneous fat. Major vascular complications were more common (6.6% versus 4.3%; P=0.043) and device success was less frequent (84.4% versus 88.1%; P=0.038) in the MO group. Freedom from all-cause and cardiovascular mortality were similar at 2 years (79.4 versus 80.6%, P=0.731; and 88.7 versus 87.4%, P=0.699; MO and nonobese, respectively). Multivariable analysis identified baseline glomerular filtration rate and nontransfemoral access as independent predictors of 2-year mortality in the MO group. An adverse MO phenotype with an abdominal visceral adipose tissue:subcutaneous adipose tissue ratio ≥1 (VAT:SAT) was associated with increased 2-year all-cause (hazard ratio [HR], 3.06; 95% CI, 1.20-7.77; P=0.019) and cardiovascular (hazard ratio, 4.11; 95% CI, 1.06-15.90; P=0.041) mortality, and readmissions (HR, 1.81; 95% CI, 1.07-3.07; P=0.027). After multivariable analysis, a (VAT:SAT) ratio ≥1 remained a strong predictor of 2-year mortality (hazard ratio, 2.78; P=0.035). Conclusions Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients who are MO has similar short- and midterm outcomes to nonobese patients, despite higher major vascular complications and lower device success. An abdominal VAT:SAT ratio ≥1 identifies an obesity phenotype at higher risk of adverse clinical outcomes.
