Introduction: Obesity is associated with diabetes, dyslipidemia and increased cardiovascular disease risks. Bariatric surgeries are one of the most reliable ways to treat obesity. Bariatric Surgical procedures started in Basra at 2009 and since then, thousands of surgeries had been made, mainly in Al-Sadr Teaching Hospital. Objective: To prospectively evaluate the short term effect of bariatric surgical procedures on body mass index (BMI), lipid profile and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) and compare the effects of various types of these surgical procedures. Methods: A 12-month prospective study on 73 patients who underwent three types of bariatric surgeries, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy surgery (LSG), laparoscopic REUX-EN-Y gastric bypass surgery (LRYGB) and minigastric bypass surgery (MGB). Body mass index (BMI), HbA1C, total cholesterol (TC), High-Density-Lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), Low-Density-Lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides (TG) levels were evaluated before surgery and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Results: All bariatric procedures show significant improvement in all parameters (increment in HDL, reduction in BMI, A1C, HDL, LDL, TC, TG) at 3 months that continue to improve more at 6 months postoperatively (p<0.001), however, bypass surgeries (LRYGB and MGB) has additional favorable independent effect on A1C and LDL seen at 6 months post operatively. Conclusion: All of the studied bariatric surgeries improve BMI, HbA1C and lipid profile significantly, however, bypass procedures have more effect on LDL and HbA1C that seem to be procedure related and independent from weight loss or other changes.

Introduction: An increased Body Mass Index (BMI) has an adverse effect on the socio-economic and healthcare sectors and may influence metabolic status. High sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP) is an emerging biomarker. The association between dyslipidaemia and obesity is well established, and has been found to be the risk factors for CVD. Aim: To study the relationship of hs-CRP with BMI, lipid profile and magnesium among obese and overweight non-diabetic non-hypertensive Sudanese women. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 90 women in Khartoum state (Sudan), aged between 20 and 43 years, from June to November 2019. The study included three groups of women based on BMI. hs-CRP was measured by using latex immunoturbidimetric method, lipid profile was evaluated using Biosystems colourimetric methods and magnesium by a chemical method. Results were computed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.Results: There was significant increase in the mean values of hs-CRP, Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C), and a significant decrease in the mean values of High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) and magnesium in obese and overweight women, when compared to normal body weight women. Pearson’s correlation coefficient revealed a positive correlation between hs-CRP, and BMI, Waist-To-Hip Ratio (WHR), TC, TG, and LDL-C (p-value <0.01). Conclusion: Overweight and obese women have increased hs-CRP and atherogenic lipid profile, suggesting obesity to be a state of chronic inflammation. hs-CRP can be used to assess the risk of obesity-related disorders for early intervention.

Recent research shows that the number of diseases associated with obesity has been increasing. In obese persons, association with functional constipation is noted in 24.0% of cases, and obesity is recorded in 60.0% of patients with functional constipation. Among the possible mechanisms for the development of such a combination are changes in serotonin level in the blood, although the existing data are ambiguous and sometimes controversial.The objective of the study is to investigate the changes in serotonin level in the blood of obese patients in combination with constipation and its relationship with the lipid profile of the blood.Materials and methods. 63 patients with obesity in combination with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBSc), 24 patients with normal body mass index and 10 practically healthy people were examined. 25 patients with obesity and constipation had a body mass index of 32.8±0.24kg/m2, 28 patients – 37.8±kg/m2, and 10 patients – 42.6±0.5kg/m2. In patients with irritable bowel syndrome without obesity, the body mass index was 21.7±0.4kg/m2. The blood serotonin level and lipid profile of the blood was determined in all patients.Results. It was deermined that in case of irritable bowel syndrome with constipation, serotonin level in the blood was reduced. In obesity with IBSc, the concentration of serotonin, on the contrary, was elevated. All patients with IBSc and obesity were marked an elevated level of total cholesterol and triglycerides. A direct correlation between high levels of triglycerides and serotonin concentration in serum of such comorbid patients was detected. The increase in the degree of obesity in the presence of IBSc was accompanied by a decrease in the concentration of cholesterol of high density lipoprotein. Patients with IBSc without excessive body weight had no such deviations.Conclusions. With an increase in the degree of obesity, serotonin level in the blood increases and the lipid blood spectrum worsens.

Atherosclerotic Risk Factors

Correlations between aerobic capacity, obesity, and atherosclerotic risk factors were evaluated in adolescents with low-to-moderate levels of physical fitness. Subjects with higher levels of fitness had a more favorable risk profile with decreased body mass index, lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure and plasma triglyceride levels, and higher plasma high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels. Simple linear regression analysis revealed an association between body mass index and blood pressure, plasma triglyceride and plasma highdensity lipoprotein-cholesterol. The level of aerobic fitness as determined by exercise duration was also associated with the same atherosclerotic risk factors. However, multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that body mass index provided the largest explanation, by those variables examined, of the interindividual variance in blood pressure, plasma triglyceride, and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Aerobic fitness contributed only minimally to the variation in these risk factors. These findings suggest that if aerobic conditioning is used to modify atherosclerotic risk factors, it should be accompanied by a reduction in weight in adolescents with low-to-moderate levels of physical fitness.

Overweight Or Obesity

Background Whether long‐term exposure to overweight or obesity from early life to adulthood has a detrimental influence on health outcomes is unknown. We aimed to investigate whether duration of overweight or obesity from youth to adulthood is associated with adult cardiometabolic risk. Methods and Results A population‐based cohort study was performed of 1268 youths, aged 3 to 18 years, with follow‐ups at 3, 6, 9, 12, 21, 27, and 31 years. Duration of overweight or obesity over 31‐year follow‐up was calculated. Adulthood outcomes included type 2 diabetes mellitus, impaired fasting glucose, high insulin levels, high carotid intima‐media thickness, hypertension, low high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol, high low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides, arterial pulse wave velocity, carotid artery compliance, Young elastic modulus, and stiffness index. Rates of overweight/obesity were 7.9% at baseline and 55.9% after 31 years. After adjustment for confounders, longer duration of overweight or obesity was associated with increased risk of all outcomes (relative risk ranged from 1.45–9.06 for type 2 diabetes mellitus, impaired fasting glucose, carotid intima‐media thickness, hypertension, high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides; β from 0.370–0.543 m/s for pulse wave velocity; –0.193 to –0.237 %/10 mm Hg for carotid artery compliance; 52.1–136.8 mm Hg·mm for Young elastic modulus; and 0.554–0.882 for stiffness index). When body mass index was further adjusted, these associations disappeared or were substantially reduced. Detrimental associations of adult body mass index with all outcomes were robust to adjustment for confounders and duration of overweight or obesity. Conclusions Overweight or obesity in adulthood rather than childhood appears to be more important for adult cardiometabolic health.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Interactions between body mass index (BMI), birth weight and risk parameters may contribute to diseases rather than the individual effects of each factor. However this hypothesis needs to be confirmed. This study aimed to determine to what extent variants of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) might interact with birth weight or body weight in determining the lipid profile concentrations in children and adolescents. DESIGN AND SETTING: Substudy of the third survey of a national surveillance system (CASPIAN-III Study) in Iran. METHODS: Whole blood samples (kept frozen at -70 °C) were randomly selected from 750 students aged 10-18 years. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and high-resolution melt analysis were performed to assess S447X (rs328), HindIII (rs320) and D9N (rs1801177) polymorphisms. RESULTS: The AG/GG genotype in D9N polymorphism was associated with higher LDL-C (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) and lower HDL-C (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol) concentration. Significant interactions were found for D9N polymorphism and birth weight in association with plasma HDL-C concentration, and also for D9N polymorphism and BMI in association with plasma triglyceride (TG) and HDL-C levels. HindIII polymorphism had significant association with birth weight for HDL-C concentration, and with BMI for TG and HDL-C levels. Significant interactions were found for S447X polymorphism and BMI in association with plasma TG and HDL-C concentrations. CONCLUSION: We found significant interactive effects from LPL polymorphisms and birth weight on HDL-C concentration, and also effects from LPL polymorphisms and BMI on TG and HDL-C concentrations.

The present study was conducted to explore the efficacy and safety of a herbal combination in the treatment of women with hyperlipidemic type 2 diabetes. The herbal combination capsule (600 mg) contained Terminalia chebula fruit extract (200 mg), Commiphora mukul (200 mg), and Commiphora myrrha oleo-gum-resin (200 mg), and the placebo capsule contained 600 mg toast powder. The patients in one group took the herbal combination and those in the other group took placebo capsules 3 times a day for 3 months. In the herbal combination–treated patients, the fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were decreased and hidh-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels was increased significantly at the endpoint compared with the placebo and baseline. Other blood parameters such as glycosylated hemoglobin, triglyceride, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, SGOT, and SGPT levels were not significantly changed after 3 months in both groups. In conclusion, the herbal combination improves glycemic control and lipid profile in women with hyperlipidemic type 2 diabetes without any adverse events.
