Background
Among the population of morbidly obese people, super-super-obese (SSO) individuals (body mass index >60 kg/m2) present a treatment challenge for bariatric surgeons.Objectives
To compare the long-term outcomes between laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and to evaluate the efficacy of SG as a stand-alone bariatric procedure for SSO patients.Setting
University hospital, Paris, France.Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the data outcomes of 210 SSO patients who underwent SG or RYGB between January 2000 and December 2011. The 6-year follow-up data were analyzed and compared.Results
Follow-up data at 6 years were collected for 57.1% and 52.1% of patients in the SG group and RYGB groups, respectively. Both procedures were effective at promoting weight loss. Most weight loss was achieved at 24 months with both procedures. The average percent excess weight loss and change in body mass index of SG versus RYGB showed no significant differences at the 4-year follow-up. Except for sleep apnea, RYGB showed slightly better resolution of the evaluated co-morbidities. The composite endpoint of major short-term adverse events (<30 d) occurred in 11.7% of patients with RYGB and 6.4% of those with SG (P?=?.02). Postoperative complications were seen in 26% of RYGB patients and 16.1% of SG patients.Conclusions
SG as a primary procedure for SSO patients remains effective even though RYGB achieves better midterm outcomes. SG can be proposed as the primary-option p+rocedure. Further investigations are needed to identify the ideal procedure for patients with symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease. 相似文献2.

Background
Recently, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has become one of the most important procedures in bariatric surgery. Short-term results show that SG is a feasible, safe, and effective operation treating obesity and its related co-morbidities. Now, the main focus is on long-term data after SG.Objectives
The aim of this study was to analyze perioperative and long-term results after SG in the German Bariatric Surgery Registry.Setting
National database, Germany.Methods
Perioperative data of primary SG (n?=?21525) and follow-up data for 5 years ± 6 months (n?=?435, 18.3% of 2375 SG performed between 2005 and 2011) were analyzed. After a review of the literature long-term results were compared with international data.Results
Mean baseline body mass index (BMI) was 51.1 kg/m2. Two hundred ninety-eight (68.5%) patients were female and 137 (31.5%) were male. Of patients, 90% had ≥1 co-morbidities. Mean operation time was 86 minutes. General postoperative complications occurred in 4.1% and special complications in 4.6% (staple-line leaks 1.6%). Mean maximum BMI loss was 18.0 ± 6.8 kg/m2 and BMI loss after 5 years was 14.3 ± 7.4 kg/m2 (P < .001). Co-morbidities, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea, were significantly improved (P < .001). Gastroesophageal reflux was significantly impaired (P < .001).Conclusions
The current results showed that SG is a safe and effective procedure in bariatric surgery. BMI loss was significant 5 years after SG. Most co-morbidities were significantly improved, but gastroesophageal reflux has often worsened. The follow-up rate was very low, which is a persistent problem in German bariatric surgery. 相似文献3.

Background
Numerous studies have shown that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) differently affect metabolic disorders associated with obesity. While bariatric surgery has been shown to improve nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, very few studies have compared liver parameters after both procedures.Objectives
To compare the evolution of liver parameters after SG and RYGB and their relationships with improvement of metabolic disorders.Methods
Metabolic parameters and abdominal ultrasonography were recorded before and 1 year after bariatric surgery in all patients who underwent SG or RYGB between 2004 and 2016 in our institution.Setting
University hospital, Colombes, France.Results
Five hundred thirty-three patients (15% men, age 43 ± 11 yr) were analyzed, including 326 who underwent RYGB and 207 who underwent SG. Before surgery, body mass index (44.7 ± 5.7 versus 44.4 ± 7.4 kg/m²) and metabolic parameters were not significantly different. One year after surgery, RYGB induced greater weight loss (31.9 ± 7.7 versus 28.6 ± 8.3 %, P < .001). Metabolic parameters improved in both groups, but fasting insulin, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, C-reactive protein, and ferritin were lower after RYGB (P < .001). In contrast, transaminases were higher after RYGB compared with SG (alanine aminotransferase: 31.6 ± 18.7 versus 22.6 ± 7.7 IU/L; P < .001). The persistence of alanine aminotransferase >34 IU/L (27% versus 7% of patients, P < .001) was independent of the persistence of steatosis on ultrasonography (39% versus 37% of patients) 1 year after RYGB and SG, respectively.Conclusion
Despite a greater improvement of metabolic disorders, RYGB has less beneficial effect on liver parameters compared with SG. Further studies are required to define the mechanisms explaining these differences between both procedures. 相似文献4.

Background
There is a paucity of studies comparing risk reduction of the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and Framingham-body mass index (BMI) Coronary Heart risk score after a laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and few studies have assessed the efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in reducing cardiovascular risk.Objective
Our goal in this study was to compare the impact of SG and RYGB on cardiovascular risk reduction.Setting
U.S. university hospital.Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the records of all SG or RYGB cases at our institution between 2010 and 2015. Patients who met the criteria for calculating the ASCVD 10-year and Framingham-BMI score were included in the study. Propensity score matching was used to match SG and RYGB on demographic characteristics and co-morbidities.Results
Of the 1330 bariatric patients reviewed in the study period, 219 (19.3%) patients met the criteria for risk score calculation. SG was the most prevalent surgery in 72.6% (N?=?159) of cases compared with RYGB in 27.4% (N?=?60) of cases. At 12-month follow-up, ASCVD 10-year score had an absolute risk reduction of 3.9 ± 6.5% in SG patients and 2.9 ± 5.8% in RYGB patients (P?=?.3). Framingham-BMI score absolute risk reduction was 11.0 ± 12.0% in SG and 9.0 ± 11.0% in RYGB patients (P?=?.4), and the decrease in estimated heart age was 12.1 ± 15.6 years in SG versus 9.2 ± 9.6 years in RYGB (P?=?.1). The percentage of estimated BMI loss at 1 year was 68.1 ± 23.3% in SG versus 74.2 ± 24.8% in RYGB (P?=?.1).Conclusion
Our results suggest that SG and RYGB are equally effective in improving cardiovascular risk and decreasing the estimated vascular/heart age at 12-month follow-up. 相似文献5.

Background
Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most popular bariatric procedure in the United States. Although standardized, variation exists in how the staple line is managed. Robotic approaches to SG (RSG) are increasing, though benefits compared with the conventional laparoscopic approach (LSG) remain controversial.Objective
Evaluate the safety of RSG versus LSG using the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program data registry, controlling for variation in staple-line management.Setting
University health network, United States.Methods
SG cases from January 1 to December 31, 2016, in the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program data registry were included. Demographic characteristics and 30-day outcomes were analyzed with separate Mann-Whitney rank sums tests, χ2 tests, or Fisher's exact tests, with P < .05 denoting statistical significance. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to control for method of staple-line treatment.Results
Of the 107,726 patients who underwent SG, 7385 were RSG. Treatment of the staple line was associated with a significantly lower rate of bleeding, with odds ratios of .69 and .58 for staple-line reinforcement alone and staple-line reinforcement plus oversewing, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed RSG had a higher rate of organ space infection than LSG (odds ratio 2.07). Otherwise, RSG did not significantly differ from LSG save for a longer median operative time (89 versus 63 min, respectively, P < .0001).Conclusions
RSG is a growing alternative to the conventional laparoscopic approach. According to the 2016 Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program database, the RSG carries a higher risk of organ space infection. The reasons behind this finding require further study. 相似文献6.

Background
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has rapidly become the most commonly performed bariatric procedure in the United States as well as other countries, with approximately 120,000 procedures being performed annually in the United States. Reoperative interventions after SG have become more prevalent in the past few years since the initial development of SG as a primary operation. Given the expected rapid growth of these reinterventions, an expert consensus conference was held with some of the most experienced bariatric surgeons in the world to better understand, discuss, and provide consensus on the reasons, indications, contraindications, and surgical options for nonresponders and complicated SG operations.Objectives
Provide consensus-based best practice guidelines regarding the performance of reinterventions after failed or complicated SG in patients with obesity, using expert opinion by organizing a consensus meeting of experts and evaluating the current literature.Setting
The meeting was held in Boca Raton, Florida on February 18, 2017.Methods
The panel of 32 expert bariatric surgeons representing 12 countries and major regions of the world and all 6 populated continents identified 54 questions for consensus. Questions encompassed patient selection, indications, contraindications, surgical technique, prevention and management of weight regain, and short- and long-term complications after SG. Responses were calculated and defined as achieving consensus (≥70% agreement) or no consensus (<70% agreement). The current available literature was extensively reviewed for each topic in question and proposed to the panel.Results
Full consensus was obtained for the essential aspects of indications and contraindications, surgical technique, management, and prevention of complications. Consensus was achieved for 35 of 54 key questions. Highlights include consensus recommendations regarding technique in reoperation, management of GERD and Barrett's esophagus after SG, and surgical options for poor initial weight loss. No consensus was reached on topics, such as management of chronic proximal fistula after SG.Conclusions
This first international expert meeting provides 35 statements and recommendations for a clinical consensus guideline regarding standardization of indications, contraindications, surgical options, and surgical techniques when reoperating on patients who underwent a failed or complicated SG. To our knowledge, the present consensus report represents the first document that defines best practice guidelines for the performance of reinterventions after failed or complicated SG. 相似文献7.

BACKGROUND CONTEXT
Pedicle screw loosening is common after spinal fusion and can be associated with pseudoarthrosis and pain. With suspicion of screw loosening on standard radiographs, CT is currently considered the advanced imaging modality of choice. MRI with new metal artifact reduction techniques holds potential to be sensitive in detection of screw loosening. The sensitivity and specificity of either of the imaging modalities are yet clear.PURPOSE
To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of three different image modalities (standard radiographs, CT, and MRI) for detection of pedicle screw loosening.STUDY DESIGN/SETTING
Cross-sectional diagnostic study.PATIENT SAMPLE
Forty-one patients (159 pedicle screws) undergoing revision surgeries after lumbar spinal fusion between August 2014 and April 2017 with preoperative radiographs, CT, and MRI with spinal metal artifact reduction (STIR WARP and TSE high bandwidth sequences).OUTCOME MEASURES
Sensitivity and specificity in detection of screw loosening for each imaging modality.METHODS
Screw torque force was measured intraoperatively and compared with preoperative screw loosening signs such as peri-screw edema in MRI and peri-screw osteolysis in CT and radiographs. A torque force of less than 60 Ncm was used to define a screw as loosened.RESULTS
Sensitivity and specificity in detection of screw loosening was 43.9% and 92.1% for MRI, 64.8% and 96.7% for CT, and 54.2% and 83.5% for standard radiographs, respectively.CONCLUSIONS
Despite improvement of MRI with metal artifact reduction MRI technique, CT remains the modality of choice. Even so, CT fails to detect all loosened pedicle screws. 相似文献8.
BACKGROUND CONTEXT
Patients with pyogenic vertebral osteomyelitis (PVO) are expected to have an increased risk of bone loss. Therefore, early bisphosphonate therapy would be clinically effective for PVO patients with osteoporosis.PURPOSE
This study aimed to investigate the effect of bisphosphonate on clinical outcomes of PVO patients with osteoporosis.STUDY DESIGN/SETTING
A retrospective comparative study.PATIENT SAMPLE
PVO patients with osteoporosis.OUTCOME MEASURES
Four events of interest for Cox proportional hazard model included surgical treatment, recurrence of infection, subsequent fracture of adjacent vertebral bodies, and death.METHODS
PVO patients were divided into three groups: group A (initiation of bisphosphonate within 6 weeks after PVO diagnosis), group B (initiation of bisphosphonate between 6 weeks and 3 months after PVO diagnosis), and group C (no treatment for osteoporosis). Cox proportional hazard model was used for the four events of interest.RESULTS
A total of 360 PVO patients with osteoporosis were investigated for the four events of interest. Group A had significantly lower hazard ratios for undergoing later (>6 weeks after diagnosis) surgery than group C (p?=?.014) despite similar occurrences of overall surgery. A significant difference was also observed in the occurrence of subsequent fractures at adjacent vertebral bodies (p?=?.001 for model 1 and p?=?.002 for model 2). Groups A and B had significantly lower hazard ratios for subsequent fracture than group C. No significant differences were observed in the hazard ratios of recurrence and death among the three groups.CONCLUSIONS
Early bisphosphonate treatment in PVO patients with osteoporosis was associated with a significantly lower occurrence of subsequent vertebral fracture at adjacent vertebral bodies and lower occurrence of subsequent surgery. 相似文献9.

Background
The safety profile of bariatric surgery in patients with class I obesity, or body mass index ≥30 and <35 kg/m2, is a matter of concern among patients and physicians.Objective
To assess the safety profile of bariatric surgery in patients with class I obesity.Setting
The Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) data set.Methods
The Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program 2015 to 2016 data sets were queried for class I obesity patients who underwent primary bariatric procedures. The 30-day postoperative safety profile, predictors of adverse events, and comparison between Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) versus sleeve gastrectomy (SG) were studied.Results
A total of 8628 cases with a mean preoperative body mass index of 33.7 ± 1.1 kg/m2 were analyzed: 1838 (21.3%) underwent RYGB, 6243 (72.4%) underwent SG, 530 (6.1%) underwent gastric banding, and 17 (.2%) underwent duodenal switch; 33.9% had diabetes and 75% had hypertension. The composite morbidity rate (defined as presence of any of 24 postoperative adverse events) for the entire cohort was 3.8%, and the serious morbidity rate (presence of any of 9 serious complications) was .7%. The 30-day mortality rate was .05% (4 cases). Presence of chronic kidney disease was found to be associated with higher composite and serious morbidity (composite morbidity: odds ratio 5.1, 95% confidence interval 2.22–11.71; serious morbidity: odds ratio 5.66, 95% confidence interval 1.52–21.14). SG patients had significantly better short-term safety outcomes than RYGB patients.Conclusion
Findings from this study, the largest series to date, indicate that bariatric surgery is safe in patients with class I obesity, with very low risk of morbidity and mortality. 相似文献10.

BACKGOUND CONTEXT
Abnormal proximal femoral angle (PFA) was recently found to be associated with deteriorating sagittal balance and quality of life (QoL) in high-grade spondylolisthesis (HGS). However, the influence of PFA on the QoL of patients undergoing surgery remains unknown.PURPOSE
This study compares the pre- and postoperative measurements of sagittal balance including PFA in patients with lumbosacral HGS after surgery. It also determines if PFA is a radiographic parameter that is associated with QoL in patients undergoing surgery.STUDY DESIGN
Retrospective cohort study.PATIENT SAMPLE
Thirty-three patients (mean age 15.6 ± 3.0 years) operated for L5-S1 HGS between July 2002 and April 2015. Thirteen had in situ fusion and 20 had reduction to a low-grade slip.OUTCOME MEASURES
The outcome measures included PFA and QoL scores measured from the Scoliosis Research Society SRS-30 QoL questionnaire.METHODS
The minimum follow-up was 2 years. PFA and QoL were compared pre- and postoperatively. Statistical analysis used nonparametric Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon Signed Rank tests, Chi-square tests to compare proportions, and bivariate correlations with Spearman's coefficients.RESULTS
A decreasing PFA correlated with less pain (r = ?0.56, p?=?.010), improved function (r = ?0.51, p?=?.022) and better self-image (r = ?0.46, p?=?.044) postreduction. Reduction decreased PFA by 5.1° (p?=?.002), whereas in situ fusion did not alter PFA significantly. Patients with normal preoperative PFA had similar postoperative QoL regardless of the type of surgery, except for self-image, which improved further with reduction (3.73 ± 0.49 to 4.26 ± 0.58, p?=?.015). Patients with abnormal preoperative PFA tended to have a higher QoL in all domains after reduction.CONCLUSION
Decreasing PFA correlates with less pain, better function and self-image. Reduction of HGS decreases PFA. Reduction also relates to a better postoperative QoL when the preoperative PFA is abnormal. When the preoperative PFA is normal, in situ fusion is equivalent to reduction except for self-image, which is better improved after reduction. 相似文献11.

Background
A person's confidence to control eating, eating self-efficacy (ESE), has been identified as a target for long-term weight management in nonsurgical weight loss interventions, but has to a limited extent been studied after bariatric surgery.Objective
We investigated the association between ESE, weight loss, and obesity-specific quality of life (QOL) after sleeve gastrectomy (SG).Setting
A single-center longitudinal study.Methods
Data from adult patients were collected before SG, and at mean 16 months (±standard deviation 4 mo) and 55 (±4) months postoperatively. ESE was measured by the Weight Efficacy Lifestyle Questionnaire Short-Form. Multiple regression analyses were performed with excess body mass index loss (%EBMIL) and obesity-specific QOL as dependent variables. Age, sex, and other preoperative values were covariates in all models.Results
Of 114 preoperative patients, 91 (80%) and 84 (74%) were available for follow-up 16 and 55 months after SG, respectively. Mean %EBMIL from baseline to 16 and 55 months was 76% (95% confidence interval: 71.9, 79.6) and 67% (95% confidence interval: 61.9, 72.2), respectively. Preoperative ESE scores improved significantly at both 16 and 55 months (P?=?.002) but did not predict postoperative %EBMIL or QOL at 55 months (β?=??.08, P?=?.485). Greater change in ESE from 0 to 16 months predicted higher %EBMIL (β?=?.34, P?=?.013) at 55 months, and improvements in ESE from 0 to 55 months were significantly associated with higher %EBMIL (β?=?.46, P?=?.001) and obesity-specific QOL (β?=?.50, P < .001) 55 months after SG.Conclusion
Significant improvements in ESE were seen at 16 months, and remained high at 55 months after SG in this cohort. Patients who improved their ESE the most also experienced the highest weight loss and obesity-specific QOL 5 years postoperatively. Future research should address whether enhancement of ESE corresponds to sustained improvements in eating behavior after bariatric surgery. 相似文献12.

BACKGROUND CONTEXT
Informed consent is mandatory before surgery and fundamental in the physician-patient interaction. However, communication is sometimes suboptimal.PURPOSE
The objective was to develop a question prompt list (QPL) for patients undergoing spine surgery (spinal neurosurgery-QPL, “SN-QPL”) to encourage them to acquire information during the informed consent consultation (ICC) and assess patients’ information needs.STUDY DESIGN/SETTING
We conducted a prospective uncontrolled single center study in order to develop a QPL for patients undergoing spine surgery.PATIENT SAMPLE
Patients inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) planned spinal surgery, (2) age 18 to 80 years, (3) legal capacity, (4) ability to understand and respond to questionnaires, and (5) informed consent.OUTCOME MEASURES
We applied the following self-report measures: the developed preliminary QPL with regard to surgery topics and assessment of patients’ information needs.METHODS
First, we performed a literature review, patient interviews, and two expert rounds. Subsequently, we validated a preliminary SN-QPL including 37 items before and after ICC with regard to importance of items and fulfillment of information needs in 118 patients. A principal component analysis followed by varimax rotation revealed the final SN-QPL.RESULTS
For the final version of the SN-QPL, 27 items with following four reliable subscales were derived with satisfactory internal consistency: (1) scale SN-QPL-C, “complications and possible postoperative deficits” (n??=??8 items, Cronbach α?=?0.88); (2) scale SN-QPL-P, “prognosis and follow-up” (n?=?8 items, Cronbach α?=?0.86); (3) scale SN-QPL-I, “preoperative inpatient stay and organizational issues” (n?=?5 items, Cronbach α?=?0.75); and (4) scale SN-QPL-S: “safety of the surgical procedure” (with n?=?6 items, Cronbach α?=?0.84). The most unmet information needs were found in SN-QPL-P. The item with the greatest unmet information needs was “How much professional experience does my surgeon have?”CONCLUSIONS
Our SN-QPL was well-accepted and perceived as helpful by patients awaiting spinal surgeries. It seems to address meaningful items and questions. It could therefore be useful in optimizing pre- and postoperative satisfaction. Further, our study identified many unaddressed questions warranting communication interventions. 相似文献13.

BACKGROUND CONTEXT
Data on the long-term outcome after fusion for isthmic spondylolisthesis are scarce.PURPOSE
To study patient-reported outcomes and adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) after fusion for isthmic spondylolisthesis and to compare patient-reported outcomes with a control group.STUDY DESIGN/SETTING
A prospective study including a cross-sectional control group.PATIENT SAMPLE
Patients with isthmic spondylolisthesis underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) (n=86) or posterolateral fusion (PLF) (n=77). Patient-reported outcome data were available for 73 patients in the PLIF group and 71 in the PLF group at a mean of 11 (range 5–16) years after baseline. Seventy-seven patients in the PLIF group and 54 in the PLF group had radiographs at a mean of 14 (range 9–19) years after baseline. One hundred thirty-six randomly selected persons from the population served as controls for the patient-reported outcomes.OUTCOME MEASURES
Patient-reported outcomes include the following: global outcome, Oswestry Disability Index, Disability Rating Index, and Short Form 36. The ASD was determined from radiographs using the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) grading scale.METHODS
: The chi-square test or analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used for group comparisons. The ANCOVA was adjusted for follow-up time, smoking, Meyerding slippage grade, teetotaler (yes/no) and, if available, the baseline level of the dependent variable.RESULTS
There were no significant patient-reported outcome differences between the PLIF group and the PLF group. The prevalence of ASD was 42% (32/77) in the PLIF group and 26% (14/54) in the PLF group (p=.98). The patient-reported outcome data indicated lower physical function and more pain in individuals with surgically treated isthmic spondylolisthesis compared to the controls.CONCLUSIONS
PLIF and PLF groups had similar long-term patient-reported and radiological outcomes. Individuals with isthmic spondylolisthesis have lower physical function and more pain several years after surgery when compared to the general population. 相似文献14.

Background Context
Posterior lumbar fusion (PLF) is a commonly performed procedure. The evolution of bundled payment plans is beginning to require physicians to more closely consider patient outcomes up to 90 days after an operation. Current quality metrics and other databases often consider only 30 postoperative days. The relatively new Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project Nationwide Readmissions Database (HCUP-NRD) tracks patient-linked hospital admissions data for up to one calendar year.Purpose
To identify readmission rates within 90 days of discharge following PLF and to put this in context of 30 day readmission and baseline readmission rates.Study Design
Retrospective study of patients in the HCUP-NRD.Patient Sample
Any patient undergoing PLF performed in the first 9 months of 2013 were identified in the HCUP-NRD.Outcome Measures
Readmission patterns up to a full calendar year after discharge.Methods
PLFs performed in the first 9 months of 2013 were identified in the HCUP-NRD. Patient demographics and readmissions were tracked for 90 days after discharge. To estimate the average admission rate in an untreated population, the average daily admission rate in the last quarter of the year was calculated for a subset of PLF patients who had their operation in the first quarter of the year. This study was deemed exempt by the institution's Human Investigation Committee.Results
Of 26,727 PLFs, 1,580 patients (5.91%) were readmitted within 30 days of discharge and 2,603 patients (9.74%) were readmitted within 90 days of discharge. Of all readmissions within 90 days, 54.56% occurred in the first 30 days. However, if only counting readmissions above the baseline admission rate of a matched population from the 4th quarter of the year (0.08% of population/day), 89.78% of 90 day readmissions occurred within the first 30 days.Conclusions
The current study delineates readmission rates after PLF and puts this in the context of 30-day readmission rates and baseline readmission rates for those undergoing PLF. These results are important for patient counseling, planning, and preparing for potential bundled payments in spine surgery. 相似文献15.

Background
In bariatric surgery, preoperative very low-calorie diets (VLCD) may better meet the technical demands of surgery by shrinking the liver. However, diets may affect tissue healing and influence bowel anastomosis in an as-yet-undefined manner.Objective
This randomized controlled trial aimed to examine the effect on collagen deposition in wounds in patients on a 4-week VLCD before laparoscopic gastric bypass.Setting
University hospital.Methods
The trial was undertaken in patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, with a control group (n?=?10) on normal diet and an intervention group (n?=?10) on VLCD (800 kcal) for 4 weeks. The primary outcome measured was expression of collagen I and III in skin wounds, with biopsies taken before and after the diet and 7 days postoperatively as a surrogate of anastomotic healing. Secondary outcome measures included liver volume and fibrosis score, body composition, operating time, blood loss, hospital stay, and complications.Results
Patients in both groups were similar in age, sex, body mass index (53.4 versus 52.8 kg/m2), co-morbidities, liver volume, and body composition. Expression of mature collagen type I was significantly decreased in diet patients compared with controls after 4 weeks of diet and 7 days after surgery. This was significant decrease in liver volume (23% versus 2%, P?=?.03) but no difference in operating times (129 versus 139 min, P?=?.16), blood loss, length of stay, or incidence of complications.Conclusions
Preoperative diets shrink liver volume and decrease expression of mature collagen in wounds after surgery. Whether the latter has a detrimental effect on clinical outcomes requires further evaluation. 相似文献16.

Background
Venous thromboembolism, including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep venous thrombosis, is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality after bariatric surgery. Inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) have been used as a method to reduce the incidence of clinically significant PEs after bariatric surgery.Objectives
To compare the incidence of postoperative PEs in patients with IVCFs with those in patients without IVCFs at the time of bariatric surgery.Setting
American College of Surgeons Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program.Methods
All patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy from 2015 to 2016 were identified within the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program database. Patients with an IVCF present at the time of surgery were compared with those patients without an IVCF present at the time of surgery with respect to preoperative patient variables, operative variables, incidence of 30-day PE, deep venous thrombosis, and additional 30-day morbidity and mortality.Results
A total of 286,704 patients met the inclusion criteria; 2512 (.9%) patients had an IVCF present at the time of surgical intervention, of which 1747 (69.5%) were placed within 30 days of bariatric surgery. Patients with an IVCF were higher-risk patients as determined by previously established risk factors for venous thromboembolism events. When a subgroup matched analysis using variables associated with the risk of venous thromboembolism events was performed looking at higher-risk patients only, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of PE based on the presence of an IVCF.Conclusion
IVCFs are being selectively placed in higher-risk patients. Despite their selective use, IVCFs do not appear to have a protective benefit with respect to the incidence of postoperative PE events. 相似文献17.

BACKGROUND CONTEXT
Although 40% of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients present with chronic back pain, the pathophysiology and underlying pain mechanisms remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that development of chronic pain syndrome in AIS is associated with alterations in pain modulatory mechanisms.PURPOSE
To identify the presence of sensitization in nociceptive pathways and to assess the efficacy of the diffuse noxious inhibitory control in patients with AIS presenting with chronic back pain.STUDY DESIGN
Cross-sectional study.PATIENT SAMPLE
Ninety-four patients diagnosed with AIS and chronic back pain.OUTCOME MEASURES
Quantitative sensory testing (QST) assessed pain modulation and self-reported questionnaires were used to assess pain burden and health-related quality of life.METHODS
Patients underwent a detailed pain assessment using a standard and validated quantitative sensory testing (QST) protocol. The measurements included mechanical detection thresholds (MDT), pain pressure threshold (PPT), heat pain threshold (HPT), heat tolerance threshold (HTT), and a conditioned pain modulation (CPM) paradigm. Altogether, these tests measured changes in regulation of the neurophysiology underlying the nociceptive processes based on the patient's pain perception. Funding was provided by The Louise and Alan Edwards Foundation and The Shriners Hospitals for Children.RESULTS
Efficient pain inhibitory response was observed in 51.1% of patients, while 21.3% and 27.7% had sub-optimal and inefficient CPM, respectively. Temporal summation of pain was observed in 11.7% of patients. Significant correlations were observed between deformity severity and pain pressure thresholds (p=.023) and CPM (p=.017), neuropathic pain scores and pain pressure thresholds (p=.015) and temporal summation of pain (p=.047), and heat temperature threshold and pain intensity (p=.048).CONCLUSIONS
Chronic back pain has an impact in the quality of life of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. We demonstrated a high prevalence of impaired pain modulation in this group. The association between deformity severity and somatosensory dysfunction may suggest that spinal deformity can be a trigger for abnormal neuroplastic changes in this population contributing to chronic pain syndrome. 相似文献18.

Background
Bariatric surgery has proven to be the most durable treatment for obesity, and it also provides improvement of obesity's associated co-morbidities. Although several mechanisms for its metabolic effects have been studied, the implications of the surgically constructed anatomy on its functioning physiology have not been elucidated. This leaves some uncertainty regarding the recommended limb lengths in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The alimentary limb length and function has been studied extensively, but few have studied the influences of the biliopancreatic limb length.Objective
To present a systematic review of the literature comparing variations in length of BP limb and results in order to determine BP limb length influence.Setting
Academic Hospital, United States.Methods
We present a systematic review of all the articles comparing variations of the biliopancreatic limb length and their results.Results
Thirteen articles were identified and analyzed. Most of the articles are prospective studies. Weight loss was superior in longer limbs.Conclusion
Based on our review of the subject, we can conclude that the release of enterohormones in response to a food load in the distal small bowel seems to play an important role in the remission of co-morbidities. Hence, the length of the biliopancreatic limb might affect this process. 相似文献19.

Background
For a number of years the laparoscopic adjustable gastric band has been one of the leading bariatric procedures with good short-term outcomes. However, inadequate weight loss, weight regain, and other band-related complications in the long term led to an increase in revisional Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) procedures. Lengthening the biliopancreatic limb, a relatively simple and safe adjustment of the standard technique, could improve the results of the revisional procedure.Objectives
The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effect of a long biliopancreatic limb RYGB (LBP-GB) and standard RYGB (S-GB) as revisional procedure after laparoscopic adjustable gastric band.Setting
General hospital specialized in bariatric surgeryMethods
One hundred forty-six patients were randomized in 2 groups; 73 patients underwent an S-GB (alimentary/biliopancreatic limb 150/75 cm), and 73 patients underwent LBP-GB (alimentary/biliopancreatic limb 75/150). Weight loss, remission of co-morbidities, quality of life, and complications were assessed during a period of 4 years.Results
Baseline characteristics between the groups were comparable. At 48 months the follow-up rate was 95%. Mean total weight loss after 24 months was 27% for LBP-GB versus 22% S-GB (P?=?.015); mean total weight loss after 48 months was 23% and 18%, respectively (P?=?.036). No significant differences in other parameters were found between the groups.Conclusions
A LBP-GB as revisional procedure after a failing laparoscopic adjustable gastric band improves short- and long-term total weight loss compared with an S-GB. Together with future modifications this technically simple adjustment of the RYGB could significantly improve disappointing results after revisional surgery. 相似文献20.
