Short- to medium-term results of single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass compared with one-anastomosis gastric bypass for weight recidivism after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

BackgroundSingle-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI) and the one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) are 2 revisional procedures to address the problem of weight recidivism after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of SADI and OAGB as revisional bariatric surgery (RBS) in initially super-obese patients (body mass index [BMI] >50 kg/m²).SettingAcademic hospital, bariatric center of excellence, Germany.MethodsObservational study of outcomes in 84 initially super-obese patients who had undergone RBS after LSG (SADI n = 42, OAGB n = 42) between July 2013 and April 2018. Follow-up examinations were performed at 1, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after RBS. The variables analyzed included time between LSG and RBS, BMI, excess weight loss, total weight loss, operation time, and complications.ResultsThe time interval between LSG and RBS was 45.5 ± 22.8 and 43.5 ± 24.2 months for SADI and OAGB, respectively. At the time of RBS, the mean BMI was 42.8 ± 7.9 kg/m² for SADI and 43.4 ± 9.2 kg/m² for OAGB. The follow-up examinations rates (%) after SADI were 97.6, 92.8, 90.5, 78.6, 57.1, and 100, 97.6, 95.2, 85.7, and 59.5 after OAGB. The BMI at the follow-up examinations were 39.1 ± 7.2, 34.2 ± 6.9, 31.2 ± 5.8, 30.2 ± 5.3, 29.3 ± 5.1 for SADI, and 39.5 ± 8.1, 36.6 ± 7.4, 34.7 ± 7.9, 32.9 ± 6.3, and 31.6 ± 5.9 for OAGB. The mean operating times for SADI and OAGB were 138 ± 40 and 123 ± 39 minutes, respectively. Three patients in the SADI group and 1 patient in the OAGB group developed a major complication within the first 30 postoperative days.ConclusionSADI and OAGB were effective second-step procedures for further weight reduction after LSG in initially super-obese patients after short to medium follow-up. There was a trend toward higher weight loss for SADI though this did not reach statistical significance. Substantial differences concerning surgery time and complications between the 2 procedures were not observed.     

Osteointegrative Sleeves for Metaphyseal Defect Augmentation in Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty: Clinical and Radiological 5-Year Follow-Up

BackgroundCementless metaphyseal implant fixation of revision total knee arthroplasty has encouraging early results. We analyzed midterm results and implant survival of osteointegrative augments in Anderson Orthopedic Research Institute (AORI) type 2a, 2b, and 3 defects. Reasons for implant failure were explored and the potential for anatomic joint line reconstruction evaluated.MethodsSixty-seven consecutive patients (68 revision total knee arthroplasties) received cementless metaphyseal sleeves between 2011 and 2014. The mean follow-up was 5.0 years, mean age was 68.5 years, and mean body mass index was 31.4 kg/m². The clinical and radiographic results were determined using established scoring systems. Additionally, the survival rate was calculated and reasons for failure were analyzed.ResultsIn 2 patients (4.3%), sleeves had to be removed early postoperatively for deep infection after second-stage reimplantation. With continuously functioning remaining implants, the aseptic survival rate was 93.6%. Cleared up for initial technical issues due to poor bone quality, it is as high as 98%. The scores remained to be significantly improved by 64.8 points (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) and 25.8 points (Knee Society score) (P < .001). In 10 patients (29.4%), diaphyseal radiolucencies were observed without suspicion of loosening. The mean joint line was noted to be 0.36 mm lower to the anatomic level.ConclusionAt a mean follow-up of 5.0 years, cementless osteointegrative sleeves for metaphyseal fixation in AORI 2a, AORI 2b, and AORI 3 defects yielded continuous implant fixation even in cases with preceding revisions. The cleared up aseptic survival rate was 98% at 5 years. The modular sleeve design allowed joint line reconstruction near the anatomic level.     

Disparate exposure to physically demanding working conditions in France

BackgroundOur study was aimed at examining disparate exposure to physically demanding working conditions in France, a key objective being to identify the types of employees/jobs requiring high-priority preventive actions.MethodsWe analyzed the data from the 2017 French nationwide cross-sectional survey (SUMER) on occupational hazards to which French employees in various sectors were subjected. The prevalence of several types of physically demanding working conditions (lifting of heavy loads, awkward body postures, vibrations, noise, and extreme temperatures) was explored. Potential associations of individual and job characteristics with these factors of hardship at work were studied by multivariate logistic regression.ResultsIn total, 48% of employees were exposed to at least one physically demanding working condition and 24.8% were exposed to multiple constraints. While managers and intellectual professionals were exposed relatively infrequently to physical constraints, blue-collar workers experienced the highest frequency of exposure. On the one hand, the role of company size depended on the factor of hardship at work considered; on the other hand, employees in large-scale companies were generally less exposed. As expected, employees in the construction industry were the most exposed to physical constraints; that said, our results also show that some activities in the services sector (e.g., personal care, administrative and support services) were quite significantly affected by a wide array of physically demanding working conditions.ConclusionNotwithstanding the establishment in France of Plans de Santé au travail (preventive workplace health and safety plans), occupational risks were found to be high, and above all, they were unevenly distributed among the various socio-professional categories, and strongly contributed to social inequalities in health. Our results identify the types of publics to be designated as high-priority targets for preventive measures aimed at reducing the adverse impacts of physically demanding working conditions and the incidence of associated musculoskeletal disorders.

Working‐correlation‐structure identification in generalized estimating equations

Selecting an appropriate working correlation structure is pertinent to clustered data analysis using generalized estimating equations (GEE) because an inappropriate choice will lead to inefficient parameter estimation. We investigate the well‐known criterion of QIC for selecting a working correlation structure, and have found that performance of the QIC is deteriorated by a term that is theoretically independent of the correlation structures but has to be estimated with an error. This leads us to propose a correlation information criterion (CIC) that substantially improves the QIC performance. Extensive simulation studies indicate that the CIC has remarkable improvement in selecting the correct correlation structures. We also illustrate our findings using a data set from the Madras Longitudinal Schizophrenia Study. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
