Is there anything that is not affected by obesity? "obesity-induced kidney damage involves increased glomerular pressure due to RAAS activation, insulin resistance, and inflammatory adipocytokines, leading to hyperfiltration and eventual renal inflammation"

I like this trend: "In patients with an initial SG, conversion to SADI-S was associated with a lower likelihood of 30-day complications compared to RYGB". But only if there is no GERD!

I read this with great interest. More research is needed before this medication can be prescribed, but I don't rule out the possibility that it will become the new standard.

Yes, losing weight protects against cancer. At the very least, it reduces the chances.
Ozempic may reduce the mortality risk from colon cancer. Colon cancer patients taking GLP-1 drugs (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro) were less than half as likely to die within 5 years. This new study suggests GLP-1 drugs might specifically target obesity-driven inflammatory and

It's really gratifying to read this, because 15 years isn't that long. 2010 was just recently. What an impressive success.
Overall mortality after bariatric surgery has significantly improved, with a 40% decrease over 15 years.

"Approximately 20% of patients who undergo primary Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and 1 in 3 (!) patients who undergo SG to RYGB conversion may experience marginal ulceration of the gastrojejunal anastomosis during long-term follow-up" Wow! SG still remains the gold standard!

The majority of the public does NOT want bariatric surgery but doctors must understand the power of metabolic bariatric surgery and its capabilities of reducing the most weight and is BEST at controlling comorbidities.

I had no doubt that new drugs aimed at treating obesity would soon hit the market. I just didn't think there were so many. "Myostatin Activin Receptor Pathway Inhibition" is my favorite😅 What's yours? https://t.co/x9qL0t7tzM

This is very interesting, especially for me, as someone in a country where bariatric surgery is prohibited for patients over 60. It gives me something to think about.

SADI-S is my favorite bariatric surgery procedure (excluding SG, of course). Scientific data has begun to emerge showing that SADI-S is as safe as more popular bariatric procedures, which is encouraging. https://t.co/SBSaJxHM5Q

Wow, RYGB increases the risk of miscarriage, while SG leads to greater weight gain during pregnancy. This is a case where weight gain isn't so bad.

Excellent point. But any weight loss can lead to gallstones. Bariatric surgery is no exception. Patients should be aware of this.
GLP1s are great, but increase the risk of gallstones by 50% ⚠️
