Patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are regarded to have reduced serum magnesium (Mg) concentrations. We aimed to assess the changes in serum Mg concentrations at 12-month follow-up in patients, with and without T2DM, who underwent one anastomosis gastric bypass surgery. Overall, 50 patients (80% female, age 42.2 (12.5) years) with morbid obesity (mean baseline BMI 43.8 (4.3) kg/m2) were included in the analysis. Half of the included patients had T2DM diagnosed at baseline, and these patients showed lower serum Mg concentration (0.78 (0.07)) vs. 0.83 (0.05) mmol/L; p = 0.006), higher blood glucose levels (129.9 (41.3) vs. 87.6 (8.1) mg/dL; p < 0.001) as well as HbA1c concentrations (6.7 (1.4) vs. 5.3 (0.5)%; p < 0.001). During follow-up, BMI and glucose levels showed a decrease; however, serum Mg levels remained stable. At baseline 42% of patients were found to be Mg deficient, which was reduced to 33% at six months and to 30% at 12 months follow-up. Moreover, patients with T2DM had an odds ratio of 9.5 (95% CI = 3.0–29.7; p < 0.001) for magnesium deficiency when compared to patients without T2DM. Further research into the role of Mg and its role in T2DM and other obesity-related comorbidities are needed.

Abstract Clinical biomarkers can predict normalization of HbA1c after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, but it is unclear which are the most predictive.The aim of this study was to compare biomarkers for insulin sensitivity and other clinical parameters in the prediction of normalization of HbA1c after RYGB surgery. This study included 99 (23 men) obese subjects (BMI > 35 kg/m2) undergoing a laparoscopic RYGB. Clinical and biochemical examinations were performed pre-operatively and up to 2 years after surgery. Pre-operatively, normal fasting glucose levels were found in 25 individuals (NG), prediabetes in 46 and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in 28. At baseline IGF-I (SD), IGFBP-1 and adiponectin levels were low while leptin was high. Weight loss was observed in all three groups, most in the prediabetes group. After 2 years HbA1c was decreased in prediabetes and T2DM. In all three groups insulin, HOMA-IR, lipids and blood pressure improved, IGFBP-1 and adiponectin increased and leptin decreased. IGF-I (SD) increased only in T2DM. In those with prediabetes or T2DM (n = 74), HbA1c at 2 years correlated to baseline BMI (r = -0.27, p = 0.028), age (r = 0.43, p < 0.001), HbA1c (r = 0.37, p = 0.001) and IGFBP-1 (r = 0.25, p = 0.038), and was normalized in 45/74 (61%) at 1 year and in 36 subjects (49%) at 2 years. These responders were younger, had higher BMI, larger waist circumference, lower HbA1c and lower IGFBP-1 levels at baseline. In a multiple regression model age (negative, p = 0.021) and waist circumference (positive, p = 0.047) were the only predictors for normalized HbA1c. RYGB normalized HbA1c in 49% at two years follow-up, which was predicted by low baseline IGFBP-1 level, a marker of hepatic insulin sensitivty and insulin secretion. However,. younger age and larger waist circumference were the only predictors of normalized HbA1c in multivariate analysis.

Diabetes is a globally prevalent chronic metabolic disease characterized by blood glucose levels higher than the normal levels. Sugar, a common constituent of diet, is also a major factor often responsible for elevating the glucose level in diabetic patients. However, diabetic patients are more prone to eat sweets amongst the human population. Therefore, we find a popular consumption of zero or low-calorie sweeteners, both natural and artificial. But, the uses of these sweeteners have proved to be controversial. Thus, the purpose of this review was to critically analyze and highlight the considerations needed for the development of sugar-free or low-calorie products for diabetic patients. For this purpose, various measures are taken such as avoiding sugary foods, using natural nectar, artificial sweeteners, etc. It cannot be ignored that many health hazards are associated with the overconsumption of artificial sweeteners only. These sweeteners are high-risk compounds and a properly balanced consideration needs to be given while making a diet plan for diabetic patients.

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 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
