Self-Reported Eating Disorder Symptoms Before and After Gastric Bypass and Duodenal Switch for Super Obesity—a 5-Year Follow-Up Study

Abstract Objectives: To determine changes and factors associated with child malnutrition, obesity in women and household food insecurity before and after the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic. Design: A prospective follow up study. Setting: In 2019, the baseline Urban Health and Nutrition Study (UHNS-2019) was conducted in 603 households, which were selected randomly from 30 clusters to represent underserved urban settlements in Colombo. In the present study, 35% of households from the UHNS-2019 cohort were randomly selected for repeat interviews, one year after the baseline study and 6 months after COVID-19 pandemic in Sri Lanka. Height/length and weight of children and women were re-measured, household food insecurity was reassessed, and associated factors were gathered through interviewer administered questionnaires. Differences in measurements at baseline and follow-up studies were compared. Participants: A total of 207 households, comprising 127 women and 109 children were included. Results: The current prevalence of children with wasting and overweight was higher in the follow-up study than at baseline UHNS-2019 (18.3%vs13.7%;p=0.26 and 8.3%vs3.7%;p=0.12 respectively). There was a decrease in prevalence of child stunting (14.7%vs11.9%;p=0.37). A change was not observed in overall obesity in women, which was around 30.7%. Repeated lockdown was associated with a significant reduction in food security from 57% in UHNS-2019 to 30% in the current study (p<0.001). Conclusions: There was an increase in wasting and overweight among children while women had a persistent high prevalence of obesity. This population needs suitable interventions to improve nutrition status of children and women to minimise susceptibility to COVID-19.

Purpose. To analyze the keratectasia area (KEA) shown in corneal topography before and after corneal cross-linking (CXL) in patients with progressive keratoconus (KC) and figure out whether KEA is appropriate for evaluating the effect of CXL. Methods. A retrospective analysis was conducted in 34 eyes from 24 progressive KC patients who have underwent CXL from 2015 to 2017. Area with K-value more than 47D shown in the corneal topography was marked and identified as KEA. Keratometry (K1, K2, and Kmax), KEA, thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), and endothelial cell density (ECD) were evaluated preoperatively or at months 3, 6, and 12 postoperatively. The changes of KEA before and after operation were evaluated. The relation of KEA and other parameters, including Kmax and TCT, was analyzed. Results. Linear regression model revealed the KEA, Kmax, K1, and K2 decreased after CXL in model y = 0.9622 -0.02408 x (P<0.05), y = 0.9982 -0.003469 x(P<0.05), y = 0.9977 + -0.001347 x(P<0.05), y = 0.9992 + -0.001779 x(P<0.05) (y represents KEA, Kmax, K1, or K2; x represents time (month)). The KEA is significantly decreased in early stage (before month 3) (P<0.05); however, the Kmax, K1, and K2 have no significant decrease in early stage (P= 0.09, 0.19, 0.32). Conclusions. The KEA is more sensitive than K-value in describing the morphological changes of cornea after CXL, especially in early stage after treatment.
