Filter by:Sleeve gastrectomy is the most performed bariatric procedure worldwide. Postoperative pain management is a challenging issue. In this trial, the investigators aimed to explore the effects of laparoscopic guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block on postoperative pain management in patient those were performed laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
Obesity is likely to be the disease of the 21th century. The growth of obesity is worldwide, a pandemic, and has increased globally in the last 30 years. Developed countries were more affected, but developing countries have increasingly contributed to this epidemic as they continue to modernize. The national and global burden of obesity, with its public health and financial implications, is projected to increase markedly in the next two decades. the study aimed to assess the effect of Vit D supplementation on preventing altered levels of calcium, Vit D, and parathormone after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
This parallel, double-blind, randomised controlled trial aims to assess the effect of a polyphenol-rich dietary supplement on obesity parameters, in combination with a hypocaloric diet, for adults with morbid obesity, bariatric surgery candidates. Participants (n=40) will be randomly assigned to intervention group (IG) or control group (CG). Together with a regular hypocaloric diet (1,200 kcal/d), the IG will be given the supplement and the CG will be given a placebo. Both groups will take three capsules a day (400 mg per capsule, a total of 1,200 mg), distributed in three daily intakes (with meals). After 12 weeks and 3 visits (baseline visit, week 6 and week 12), pre and post intervention data and intervention versus placebo data will be analysed. Anthropometric and health parameters, dietary habits, lifestyle characteristics and physical activity will be assessed, and blood and urine samples will be collected in all three visits. Faecal samples will be collected at baseline and visit 3. Results will provide evidence on the effects of a combination of polyphenols on several well-established obesity parameters and will unravel possible underlying mechanisms by metabolomic analyses and microbiota diversity.
Obesity has been considered as a risk factor for mortality and development of complications during infection with the influenza virus. Several case studies of severe and fatal infections have identified possible effects of obesity on disease progression; these effects include extensive viral replication in the deep lung, progression to viral pneumonia, and prolonged and increased viral shedding. These points may be linked to obesity which causes a chronic state of meta-inflammation with systemic implications for immunity: obese patients exhibit delayed and blunted innate and adaptive immune responses to influenza virus infection, and they experience poor recovery from the disease leading to an increased susceptibility to secondary bacterial infections and poor healing of the lung epithelium. Furthermore, in obese people, influenza virus may exploit the lack of antiviral pressure, generate a more virulent population and increase disease severity Due to the growing prevalence of obesity worldwide (500 million subjects in 2017), it is important to be able to offer vaccines that provide the highest protection for this at-risk population. The quadrivalent recombinant high-dose influenza vaccine has been shown to have greater immunogenicity and efficacy than standard influenza vaccine in non-obese adults older than 50 years. However, this vaccine has never been evaluated in obese subjects. Investigators thus planned this trial to assess whether the use of the new quadrivalent recombinant high-dose influenza vaccine (RIV4) will induce a better immunological answer than current quadrivalent standard vaccine (SD) in patients with severe obesity, with an acceptable safety profile, thus leading to a better protection against influenza in this population at high risk of influenza complications.
710 / 5.000 Çeviri sonuçları Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the most common bariatric procedure in obesity. The overall relationship between sleeve gastrectomy and gastroesophageal reflux disease is still unclear. Only acid reflux can be detected in the esophagus with a standard 24-hour pH-meter. A 24-hour pH-meter is normal in 30-50% of patients with nonerosive reflux. Impedance-pH meter, on the other hand, is a newly developed technique and determines all kinds of reflux (gas, liquid, acid and non-acid), the level of reflux and the clearance time of the esophagus. This prospective series aims to examine the relationship between LSG operation and esophago-gastric physiology using intraluminal impedance testing before and after LSG operation.
This study randomizes patients to two commonly used peri-procedural antibiotics after gastric bypass with the pre and post-operative collection of stool samples, to identify significant differences in relative abundances of gut microbiota phyla, genera and species between the two antibiotic groups used. Gastric bypass may beneficially affect hypertension by altering the post-operative microbiome and specific antibiotics can further enhance the resolution rate by improving microbial diversity and richness.
This study will be investigated whether an ultrasound-assisted technique is better than a classical land-mark technique to facilitate spinal anesthesia in the lateral position in morbidly obese pregnant women with BMI ≥ 40 who will undergo elective cesarean section. The primary objective in this study is the rate of successful dural puncture at the first attempt. It was assumed that ultrasound could facilitate neuraxial blockade in grade 3 morbidly obese pregnant women according to the Who classification, whose topographic anatomy is difficult.
A high prevalence of psychological trauma on one hand and of psychiatric disorders, such as depression, anxiety, suicide attempts, addictions, and eating disorders on the other hand, has been reported in patients with severe obesity seeking bariatric surgery. Some studies reported an increased prevalence of these psychiatric disorders after bariatric surgery, potentially related to weight regain. In this context, psychological resilience is a concept that brings together internal and external factors of adaptation, and whose clinical use facilitates interdisciplinary collaborative work. This research focuses on the association between resilience and success or failure of bariatric surgery in patients followed in the Specialized Obesity Center (CSO) of the Nancy University Hospital. The hypothesis is that psychological resilience before surgery promotes successful surgical treatment. This retrospective study is based on existing data from patients with severe obesity who have undergone bariatric surgery at the Nancy CSO. The main objective is to study 1) the resilience of patients with severe obesity, candidates for bariatric surgery, at the first assessment (T0), at the end of lifestyle/behavioral modifications program (T1) and at 2 years after bariatric surgery (T2), 2) the relationship between internal and external factors explaining resilience and final weight outcomes. The investigators are expected that non-resilient patients have more psychological vulnerabilities (psychopathology, negative life events, etc.), and have lower weight loss than resilient patients.
