Effect of Bariatric Surgery on CKD Risk.

ABSTRACT: Obesity is linked to the development and progression of CKD, but whether bariatric surgery protects against CKD is poorly understood. We, therefore, examined whether bariatric surgery influences CKD risk. The study included 2144 adults who underwent bariatric surgery from March of 2006 to April of 2009 and participated in the Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery-2 Study cohort. The primary outcome was CKD risk categories as assessed by the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) consortium criteria using a combination of eGFR and albuminuria. Patients were 79% women and 87% white, with a median age of 46 years old. Improvements were observed in CKD risk at 1 and 7 years after surgery in patients with moderate baseline CKD risk (63% and 53%, respectively), high baseline risk (78% and 56%, respectively), and very high baseline risk (59% and 23%, respectively). The proportion of patients whose CKD risk worsened was ?10%; five patients developed ESRD. Sensitivity analyses using year 1 as baseline to minimize the effect of weight loss on serum creatinine and differing eGFR equations offered qualitatively similar results. Treatment with bariatric surgery associated with an improvement in CKD risk categories in a large proportion of patients for up to 7 years, especially in those with moderate and high baseline risk. These findings support consideration of CKD risk in evaluation for bariatric surgery and further study of bariatric surgery as a treatment for high-risk obese patients with CKD.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Several reviews have recently detailed the beneficial effects of weight loss surgery for kidney function. However, these studies have a number of limitations, including small sample size, few done in chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3 and 4, and many not including the main bariatric surgery procedures used in the United States today. STUDY DESIGN:This was an observational retrospective cohort study comparing propensity score-matched bariatric surgery patients and nonsurgery control patients who were referred for, but did not have, surgery. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy were also compared using propensity matching. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS:Patients (714 surgery patients; 714 controls) were from a large integrated health care system, a mean of 58±8 (SD) years old, and mostly women (77%) and non-Hispanic whites (56%) and had diabetes mellitus (66%) and/or hypertension (91%). PREDICTOR:Predictors at the time of surgery or referral to surgery were age, sex, race/ethnicity, weight, and presence of diabetes and/or hypertension. OUTCOMES:The primary outcome for this study was change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from serum creatinine level over a median 3-year follow-up period. MEASUREMENTS:Serum creatinine was used to calculate eGFR using the CKD-EPI (CKD Epidemiology Collaboration) creatinine equation. RESULTS:Surgery patients had 9.84 (95% CI, 8.05-11.62) mL/min/1.73m2 greater eGFRs than controls at a median 3 years' follow-up and RYGB patients had 6.60 (95% CI, 3.42-9.78) mL/min/1.73m2 greater eGFRs than sleeve gastrectomy patients during the same period. LIMITATIONS:This study is limited by its nonrandomized observational study design, estimation of GFR, and large changes in muscle mass, which may affect serum creatinine level independent of changes in kidney function. CONCLUSIONS:Bariatric surgery, especially the RYGB procedure, results in significant improvements for up to 3 years in eGFRs for patients with CKD stages 3 and 4.

Project description:ImportanceExcess adiposity confers higher risk of breast cancer for women. For women who have lost substantial weight, it is unclear whether previous obesity confers residual increased baseline risk of breast cancer compared with peers without obesity.ObjectivesTo determine whether there is a residual risk of breast cancer due to prior obesity among patients who undergo bariatric surgery.Design, setting, and participantsRetrospective matched cohort study of 69 260 women with index date between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2016. Patients were followed up for 5 years after bariatric surgery or index date. Population-based clinical and administrative data from multiple databases in Ontario, Canada, were used to match a cohort of women who underwent bariatric surgery for obesity (baseline body mass index [BMI] ≥35 with comorbid conditions or BMI ≥40) to women without a history of bariatric surgery according to age and breast cancer screening history. Nonsurgical controls were divided into 4 BMI categories (<25, 25-29, 30-34, and ≥35). Data were analyzed on October 21, 2021.ExposuresWeight loss via bariatric surgery.Main outcomes and measuresResidual hazard of breast cancer after washout periods of 1, 2, and 5 years. Comparisons were made between the surgical and nonsurgical cohorts overall and within each of the BMI subgroups.ResultsIn total, 69 260 women were included in the analysis, with 13 852 women in each of the 5 study cohorts. The mean (SD) age was 45.1 (10.9) years. In the postsurgical cohort vs the overall nonsurgical cohort (n = 55 408), there was an increased hazard for incident breast cancer in the nonsurgical group after washout periods of 1 year (hazard ratio [HR], 1.40 [95% CI, 1.18-1.67]), 2 years (HR, 1.31 [95% CI, 1.12-1.53]), and 5 years (HR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.21-1.58]). When the postsurgical cohort was compared with the nonsurgical cohort with BMI less than 25, the hazard of incident breast cancer was not significantly different regardless of the washout period, whereas there was a reduced hazard for incident breast cancer among postsurgical patients compared with nonsurgical patients in all high BMI categories (BMI ≥25).Conclusions and relevanceFindings suggest that bariatric surgery was associated with a reduced risk of developing breast cancer for women with prior obesity equivalent to that of a woman with a BMI less than 25 and a lower risk when compared with all groups with BMI greater than or equal to 25.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The extent of weight loss among patients undergoing bariatric surgery is highly variable. Herein, we tested the contribution of genetic background to such interindividual variability after biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. METHODS:Percentage of excess body weight loss (%EBWL) was monitored in 865 patients over a period of 48 months after bariatric surgery, and two polygenic risk scores were constructed with 186 and 11 (PRS186 and PRS11) single nucleotide polymorphisms previously associated with body mass index (BMI). RESULTS:The accuracy of the %EBWL logistic prediction model - including initial BMI, age, sex, and surgery modality, and assessed as the area under the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve adjusted for optimism (AUCadj = 0.867) - significantly increased after the inclusion of PRS186 (?AUCadj = 0.021; 95% CI of the difference [95% CIdiff] = 0.005-0.038) but not PRS11 (?AUCadj= 0.008; 95% CIdiff= -0.003-0.019). The overall fit of the longitudinal linear mixed model for %EBWL showed a significant increase after addition of PRS186 (-2 log-likelihood = 12.3; P = 0.002) and PRS11 (-2 log-likelihood = 9.9; P = 0.007). A significant interaction with postsurgery time was found for PRS186 (? = -0.003; P = 0.008) and PRS11 (? = -0.008; P = 0.03). The inclusion of PRS186 and PRS11 in the model improved the cost-effectiveness of bariatric surgery by reducing the percentage of false negatives from 20.4% to 10.9% and 10.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION:These results revealed that genetic background has a significant impact on weight loss after biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. Likewise, the improvement in weight loss prediction after addition of polygenic risk scores is cost-effective, suggesting that genetic testing could potentially be used in the presurgical assessment of patients with severe obesity.

Project description:ImportancePeople with severe obesity who undergo a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for osteoarthritis (OA) are at higher risk of short-term and long-term complications compared with people with reference (<30) body mass index (BMI; weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared). It is not known whether weight loss before TKA modifies this risk.ObjectiveTo determine whether outcomes are improved by undergoing bariatric surgery before TKA in people with BMI greater than or equal to 35 and end-stage OA.Design, setting, and participantsThis parallel-group, assessor-blinded, randomized clinical trial was conducted between May 2012 and June 2020 with a minimum follow-up of 12 months after TKA. TKA was performed at a tertiary referral university-affiliated public hospital, and bariatric surgery was performed at a private hospital facility and a university-affiliated private practice. Data analysis was performed from February to July 2021.InterventionsBariatric surgery compared with usual weight management advice (treatment as usual [TAU]) in people scheduled for TKA.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was complications of TKA measured by a composite of death from any cause, perioperative or postoperative complications resulting in a discharge delay, unplanned procedure, or readmission for at least 12 months after TKA. Secondary outcomes included hospital bed day utilization, anthropomorphic measures, and patient-reported outcomes.ResultsEighty-two patients waiting for TKA were randomized to undergo bariatric surgery (41 patients) or TAU (41 patients). Of the 82 participants, 66 (80.5%) were women, the mean (SD) age was 57.8 (4.9) years, and the mean (SD) BMI was 43.8 (5.5). Thirty-nine participants (95.1%) in the intervention group underwent laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding, and 29 (70.7%) subsequently underwent TKA. Thirty-nine patients (95.1%) in the TAU group underwent TKA. Six patients (14.6%) in the intervention group incurred the primary outcome (median follow-up, 24 months), compared with 15 (36.6%) in the TAU group (median follow-up, 27 months) (difference, 22.0%; 95% CI, 3.7% to 40.3%; P = .02). The between-group difference in BMI at 12 months was -6.32 (95% CI, -7.90 to -4.50; P < .001) in favor of the intervention group. TKA was declined by 12 participants (29.3%) in the intervention group because of symptom improvement, whereas 2 participants (4.9%) in the TAU group declined TKA (difference, 24.4%; 95% CI, 9.0% to 39.8%; P = .003).Conclusions and relevanceWeight loss following bariatric surgery reduced the risk of complications of TKA in people with BMI greater than or equal to 35. Significantly fewer participants required TKA following weight loss, contributing to this finding.Trial registrationAustralian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry Number: ACTRN12611001178932.

Project description:IntroductionBariatric surgery performed at high volume centers decreases length of stay, cost, and morbidity and mortality. The effect of a high volume of bariatric surgery procedures on outcomes may extend not just to bariatric surgery but to any general surgical procedure in morbidly obese patients. We hypothesized that patients with morbid obesity (body mass index >40 kg/m2) undergoing common, nonbariatric general surgery would have decreased morbidity and mortality at centers performing high volumes of bariatric surgery.MethodsThe 2016 National Inpatient Sample (NIS) was used to identify the number of laparoscopic gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy performed at each hospital. Hospitals were classified as high volume bariatric hospitals (HVBH) ≥10 reported cases (50 actual)/year or low volume bariatric hospitals (LVBH) <10 reported cases (50 actual)/year, as NIS reports a 20% sample of actual cases. Patients with morbid obesity undergoing laparoscopic or open appendectomy, cholecystectomy, or ventral hernia repair were included for analysis. Propensity scores were developed based on available demographics, comorbidities, and hospital procedure volume. Postoperative complications during the index hospital admission, determined by ICD-10 code, were compared using inverse propensity weights. Differences were considered significant with a p value of <0.05.ResultsThe total number of general surgery patient cases analyzed was 14,028 from 2,482 hospitals, representing 70,140 admissions. The cohort of patients undergoing operations treated at HVBH were younger (p=0.03) with higher rates of COPD (p=0.04). Patients at LVBH had higher rates of nicotine dependence (p=0.0001) and obstructive sleep apnea (p < 0.001). On propensity-weighted analysis adjusting for preoperative comorbidities and hospital procedure volume, there were significantly higher rates of multiple postprocedure complications at LVBH, specifically, postprocedure respiratory failure for patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy, elective ventral hernia repair with mesh and appendectomy.ConclusionPatients with morbid obesity may have an advantage in having general surgery procedures at HVBH. HVBH may have a volume-outcomes relationship where the hospital and staff familiarity with the management principles required to minimize the postoperative risk associated with morbid obesity and improve patient outcomes.
