IntroductionOne anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) has become a widespread technique over the last few years in France, without any prior assessment and despite existing controversies among bariatric surgeons. An older bypass technique for treating obesity, the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), is available and reimbursed, having been assessed and approved for use in 2005. In 2019, the French Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) assessed OAGB for the treatment of severe and massive obesity. This assessment, the first in the world, was undertaken for OAGBs carried out with a 200- or 150-centimeter biliopancreatic-limb (BP-limb) length.MethodsA systematic review (SR) of the literature and consultation of a working group consisting of both healthcare professionals (clinician and surgeons) and patients were carried out. The primary aim of our assessment was to determine whether the OAGB technique can replace RYGB. The efficacy and safety profile of OAGB was compared with RYGB in adult patients with massive, severe obesity. Complications and postoperative follow up specific to OAGB were identified.ResultsThe three selected randomized controlled trials (RCTs) could not confirm the superiority or the non-inferiority of OAGB, compared with RYGB, on the selected efficacy endpoints of weight loss, resolution of comorbidities, and quality of life. Adverse events reported for OAGB included severe nutritional complications and bile reflux that could potentially lead to lower esophageal cancer. In one RCT, the frequency of serious adverse events in the OAGB group was almost two times higher than in the RYGB group.ConclusionsHAS considered that OAGB carried out with a longer (200 centimeter) BP-limb is not a validated technique for the surgical treatment of massive, severe obesity. Thus, it cannot be considered an alternative to RYGB. There were insufficient data available on OAGB performed with a 150-centimeter BP-limb. Thus, HAS recommended undertaking a multicenter RCT to assess the efficacy and safety of OAGB. Patients who have already undergone OAGB should receive the same follow up as patients who have received RYGB, including close monitoring for nutritional complications and lower esophageal cancer and an endoscopic examination five years after surgery.

Abstract Sensory impairment (SI) is common among older adults, and it is an increasingly important public health challenge as the population ages. We evaluated the association between SI and incident disability-related cessation of employment in older adults using the population-based Health and Retirement Study. Participants employed in 2006 completed biennial interviews until self-reported incident disability-related cessation of employment. Participants were censored at loss to follow-up, retirement, or 2018. Participants rated their vision and hearing, using eyeglasses or hearing aids if applicable, on a Likert scale (poor, fair, good, very good, excellent). SI was defined as poor or fair ability, and SI was categorized as neither SI (NSI), vision impairment alone (VI), hearing impairment alone (HI), and dual SI (DSI). Cox proportional hazard regression assessed the association between SI and incident disability-related cessation of employment, adjusting for demographic and health covariates. Overall, 4726 participants were included: 421 (8.9%) were with VI, 487 (10.3) with HI, and 203 (4.3%) with DSI. Mean age was 61.0 ± 6.8 years, 2488 (52.6%) were women, and 918 (19.4) were non-White. In the fully adjusted model, incident disability-related cessation of employment over the 12-year follow-up period was higher in VI (Hazard Ratio (HR)=1.30, 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.92, 1.85), HI (HR=1.60, CI=1.16, 2.22), and DSI (HR=2.02, CI=1.38, 2.96). These findings indicate that employed older adults with SI are at increased risk of incident disability-related cessation of employment, and that older adults with DSI are particularly vulnerable. Addressing SI in older adults may lengthen their contribution to the workforce.

Abstract Purpose The treatment of people with severe obesity and BMI > 50 kg/m2 is challenging. The present study aims to evaluate the short and mid-term outcomes of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) with a biliopancreatic limb of 150 cm as a primary bariatric procedure to treat those people in a referral center for bariatric surgery. Material and Methods Data of patients who underwent OAGB for severe obesity with BMI > 50 kg/m2 between 2010 and 2017 were collected prospectively and analyzed retrospectively. Follow-up comprised clinical and biochemical assessment at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months postoperatively, and once a year thereafter. Results Overall, 245 patients underwent OAGB. Postoperative mortality was null, and early morbidity was observed in 14 (5.7%) patients. At 24 months, the percentage total weight loss (%TWL) was 43.2 ± 9, and percentage excess weight loss (%EWL) was 80 ± 15.7 (184 patients). At 60 months, %TWL was 41.9 ± 10.2, and %EWL was 78.1 ± 18.3 (79 patients). Conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass was needed in three (1.2%) patients for reflux resistant to medical treatment. Six patients (2.4%) had reoperation for an internal hernia during follow-up. Anastomotic ulcers occurred in three (1.2%) patients. Only two patients (0.8%) underwent a second bariatric surgery for insufficient weight loss. Conclusion OAGB with a biliopancreatic limb of 150 cm is feasible and associated with sustained weight loss in the treatment of severe obesity with BMI > 50 kg/m2. Further randomized studies are needed to compare OAGB with other bariatric procedures in this setting. Graphical abstract

Abstract Background It is already known that Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has gained popularity as a stand-alone procedure with good short-term results for weight loss. However, in the long-term, weight regain is considered as a complication. Demand for secondary surgery is rising, partly for this reason, but through that study we try to discover the efficacy of conversion of failed sleeve gastrectomy to one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) regarding weight loss and metabolic outcomes. Objective To asses the efficacy and safety of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) as a conversion surgery post Sleeve Gastrectomy failure as regard weight loss and metabolic outcomes. Patients and Methods This study is a retrospective cohort study which included 20 patients underwent one anastomosis gastric bypass at Ain-Shams University El-Demerdash Hospital, Cairo, Egypt and specialized bariatric center, Cairo, Egypt From February 2019 to July 2019 with 6 months of postoperative follow up till January 2019. Results In this study, we reviewed and analyzed the outcomes from the revision of the SG due to either inadequate weight loss or weight regain to one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) with %EBWL of 6.65% at 1 month, 13.61 % at 3 months and 20.86% at 6 months. Conclusion OAGB appears to be an effective and safe therapeutic technique as a revisional surgery for failed primary SG with good short-term results for treating morbid obesity and its associated comorbidities with a significantly low rate of complications. However the EBWL was less than what is reported after primary OAGB weight. Multicenter studies with larger series of patients and longer term follow up after SG revisions to OAGB are warranted.

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) is known to induce, on average,60 to 75% excess body weight loss between 18 and 24 months post-surgery. However, several studies have shown weight regain after two years post-surgery, thus patients must have adequate follow-up in order to guarantee and/or maintain response to RYGB. AIM: To evaluate the determinants of adequate response in patients who underwent RYGB. METHODS: A longitudinal study with 193 adults who underwent RYGB between 2012 and 2014. Adequate response to RYGB was determined by Excess Weight Loss (%EWL). Logistic regression models were constructed to verify the degree of association between adequate response of patient after RYGB and determinants of variable risk based on estimate Odds Ratios (OR). RESULTS: RYGB improves Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and body mass index (BMI). From the multivariate logistic regression model, being female and not having SAH and DM reduce the chance of inadequate RYGB response. Regarding preoperative BMI, an increase in one unit of kg/m2 was associated with increased odds of inadequate response after RYGB. And patients who did not receive follow-up care with a psychologist or psychiatrist in the postoperative period presented higher odds of inadequate response to RYGB. CONCLUSION: The findings of this study contribute to the effective planning of interventions by multi-professional teams involved in RYGB, aimed at offering a better follow-up care focused mainly on post-surgery changes and adequate RYGB response.

Introduction. Obesity is among the newest health matters that human beings are struggling with. Length of bypassed intestine is important in achievement of most weight loss and least nutritional and absorptive disorders. This study has aimed to assess short-term metabolic and nutritional effects of laparoscopic mini-gastric bypass/one anastomosis gastric bypass (MGB/OAGB) with a loop bypass length of 180 centimeters (cm) and compare these factors among patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 40–45 and 45–50 kilograms per square meter (kg/m2). Methods. 25 patients were put in group 1 (BMI = 40–45 kg/m2) and 25 patients in group 2 (BMI = 45–50 kg/m2). Patients’ BMI, postoperative weight, excess weight loss, and laboratory tests including fasting blood sugar (FBS), lipid profile, serum iron (Fe), ferritin, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), 25-OH vitamin D, vitamin B12, liver function tests, and albumin were recorded preoperatively and within 3- and 6-month follow-up. Results. Weight loss and BMI reduction was significantly more in patients with higher BMI level (P=0.007), and excess weight loss was higher in patients with lower preoperative BMI level (P=0.007). Six-month follow-up showed statistically significant reduction in total cholesterol, total triglyceride, Fe, and vitamin B12 among patients with higher BMI level (P value <0.05). Conclusion. Based on this study, 180-cm intestinal bypassed length works for patients with a BMI level of 40–45 and 45–50 kg/m2, according to their significant decrease in weight, BMI, and improving glycolipid profile.
