TL;DR: Laparoscopic SASJ bypass is an effective, safe, and simple procedure for treating morbid obesity and comorbid conditions with least nutritional deficiency, however, long-term studies are needed.
Abstract: Santoro's operation is a sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition. The aim of the procedure is to keep pass to the duodenum to decrease nutritional deficiency and to allow endoscopic management of obstructive jaundice. To be easier, this procedure was rapidly altered to a single anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass (SASI). In this study, we shifted the anastomosis up to the jejunum to evaluate the effect of laparoscopic single anastomosis sleeve jejunal (SASJ) bypass as a treatment for morbid obesity and related comorbidities. In addition, the effect of the SASJ procedure on nutritional deficiency was examined. In this study, 150 morbidly obese patients underwent SASJ bypass with a biliary limb length of 200–250 cm. All patients were followed up at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. We evaluated all cases by assessing BMI, complications, nutritional status, and obesity-related comorbidities. The mean age of participants was 30.6 years, and the mean body mass index (BMI) was 44.6 kg/m2. Of the patients, 35 (23.2%) had type two diabetes and 47 (31.3%) were hypertensive. Postoperative bleeding occurred in two cases (1.3%). One patient developed a gastric leak (0.7%), and five patients developed biliary gastritis (3.3%). One patient (0.7%) developed a pulmonary embolism. The %EWL reached 85% in 1 year. Normalization of blood glucose occurred within 2 months after surgery in all diabetic patients. Hypertension underwent remittance in 89% of hypertensive patients. All patients were gradually weaned from four types of multivitamin regimens to only one multivitamin regimen without apparent nutritional deficiency. Laparoscopic SASJ bypass is an effective, safe, and simple procedure for treating morbid obesity and comorbid conditions with least nutritional deficiency. However, long-term studies are needed.

TL;DR: The science and evolutionary development of various laparoscopic bariatric surgical techniques and the associated surgical anatomy are described.
Abstract: Although the origins of bariatric surgery to treat obesity can be traced back to the 1950s with the jejunoileal bypass, which is considered a malabsorptive bariatric procedure, its practice remained in obscurity until two things happened. First, obesity becoming a pandemic disease state with life threatening comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome, resulting in a higher risk for premature death. Second, the introduction, development, and refinement of minimal access surgical techniques along with newer laparoscopic stapling devices. With the advent of laparoscopy in the 1980s, bariatric surgery began to be performed through minimally invasive techniques. The purpose of this article is to describe the science and evolutionary development of various laparoscopic bariatric surgical techniques and the associated surgical anatomy.

TL;DR: The weight loss trend after the SASJ bypass was similar to that of older techniques; consequently this technique can be considered for cases with particular indications due to the reversibility and also more accessible gastric follow-up studies in the SASj approach.
Abstract: Obesity and its associated morbidities have become a significant concern all over the world. Bariatric surgery, regardless of its type, is the most effective approach for treating morbid obesity. Single-anastomosis sleeve jejunal (SASJ) bypass is a novel bariatric surgery technique and can be considered for patients with former background of severe gastroesophageal symptoms. The purpose of this research was to compare SASJ bypass outcomes with other techniques during a 6-month follow-up. This is a non-randomized clinical trial conducted on 100 patients, who underwent four types of bariatric surgery (classic Roux-en-Y bypass, SASJ bypass, omega gastric bypass, and sleeve gastrectomy), and each one of these types contained 25 cases, during the time period of 2 years from 2016 to 2018. Patients’ information including age, gender, height, basal weight, body mass index (BMI), serum albumin, and hemoglobin A1C were recorded, within 1, 3, and 6 months after their surgery, and also were compared with each other. Members of the four groups were similar due to their age, gender distribution, height, baseline BMI, hemoglobin A1C, albumin, and also excess weight (P value > 0.05); however, the sleeve gastrectomy group baseline weight was significantly higher compared with the other three groups (P value = 0.013). All of the groups significantly lost weight during this 6-month period, but the comparison between them indicated no statistical difference regarding excess weight loss, BMI, hemoglobin A1C, and albumin (P value > 0.05). The excess weight loss mean during 6 months in SASJ bypass was 34.2 ± 5.4%, which was comparable with other groups. The weight loss trend after the SASJ bypass was similar to that of older techniques; consequently this technique can be considered for cases with particular indications due to the reversibility and also more accessible gastric follow-up studies in the SASJ approach. Further researches with longer follow-ups are strongly recommended.

TL;DR: Effective weight loss was achieved in morbidly obese patients after undergoing bariatric surgery, and a substantial majority of patients with diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea experienced complete resolution or improvement.
Abstract: ContextAbout 5% of the US population is morbidly obese. This disease remains largely refractory to diet and drug therapy, but generally responds well to bariatric surgery.ObjectiveTo determine the impact of bariatric surgery on weight loss, operative mortality outcome, and 4 obesity comorbidities (diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea).Data Sources and Study SelectionElectronic literature search of MEDLINE, Current Contents, and the Cochrane Library databases plus manual reference checks of all articles on bariatric surgery published in the English language between 1990 and 2003. Two levels of screening were used on 2738 citations.Data ExtractionA total of 136 fully extracted studies, which included 91 overlapping patient populations (kin studies), were included for a total of 22 094 patients. Nineteen percent of the patients were men and 72.6% were women, with a mean age of 39 years (range, 16-64 years). Sex was not reported for 1537 patients (8%). The baseline mean body mass index for 16 944 patients was 46.9 (range, 32.3-68.8).Data SynthesisA random effects model was used in the meta-analysis. The mean (95% confidence interval) percentage of excess weight loss was 61.2% (58.1%-64.4%) for all patients; 47.5% (40.7%-54.2%) for patients who underwent gastric banding; 61.6% (56.7%-66.5%), gastric bypass; 68.2% (61.5%-74.8%), gastroplasty; and 70.1% (66.3%-73.9%), biliopancreatic diversion or duodenal switch. Operative mortality (≤30 days) in the extracted studies was 0.1% for the purely restrictive procedures, 0.5% for gastric bypass, and 1.1% for biliopancreatic diversion or duodenal switch. Diabetes was completely resolved in 76.8% of patients and resolved or improved in 86.0%. Hyperlipidemia improved in 70% or more of patients. Hypertension was resolved in 61.7% of patients and resolved or improved in 78.5%. Obstructive sleep apnea was resolved in 85.7% of patients and was resolved or improved in 83.6% of patients.ConclusionsEffective weight loss was achieved in morbidly obese patients after undergoing bariatric surgery. A substantial majority of patients with diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea experienced complete resolution or improvement.

TL;DR: The causes of Type 2 diabetes mellitus and prediabetes are embedded in a very complex group of genetic and epigenetic systems interacting within an equally complex societal framework that determines behavior and environmental influences as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Over the past three decades, the number of people with diabetes mellitus has more than doubled globally, making it one of the most important public health challenges to all nations. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and prediabetes are increasingly observed among children, adolescents and younger adults. The causes of the epidemic of T2DM are embedded in a very complex group of genetic and epigenetic systems interacting within an equally complex societal framework that determines behavior and environmental influences. This complexity is reflected in the diverse topics discussed in this Review. In the past few years considerable emphasis has been placed on the effect of the intrauterine environment in the epidemic of T2DM, particularly in the early onset of T2DM and obesity. Prevention of T2DM is a 'whole-of-life' task and requires an integrated approach operating from the origin of the disease. Future research is necessary to better understand the potential role of remaining factors, such as genetic predisposition and maternal environment, to help shape prevention programs. The potential effect on global diabetes surveillance of using HbA(1c) rather than glucose values in the diagnosis of T2DM is also discussed.

TL;DR: In obese patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, 12 months of medical therapy plus bariatric surgery achieved glycemic control in significantly more patients than medical therapy alone.
Abstract: Of the 150 patients, 93% completed 12 months of follow-up. The proportion of patients with the primary end point was 12% (5 of 41 patients) in the medicaltherapy group versus 42% (21 of 50 patients) in the gastric-bypass group (P = 0.002) and 37% (18 of 49 patients) in the sleeve-gastrectomy group (P = 0.008). Glycemic control improved in all three groups, with a mean glycated hemoglobin level of 7.5±1.8% in the medical-therapy group, 6.4±0.9% in the gastric-bypass group (P<0.001), and 6.6±1.0% in the sleeve-gastrectomy group (P = 0.003). Weight loss was greater in the gastric-bypass group and sleeve-gastrectomy group (−29.4±9.0 kg and −25.1±8.5 kg, respectively) than in the medical-therapy group (−5.4±8.0 kg) (P<0.001 for both com parisons). The use of drugs to lower glucose, lipid, and blood-pressure levels decreased significantly after both surgical procedures but increased in patients receiving medical therapy only. The index for homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) improved significantly after bariatric surgery. Four patients underwent reoperation. There were no deaths or life-threatening complications. Conclusions In obese patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, 12 months of medical therapy plus bariatric surgery achieved glycemic control in significantly more patients than medical therapy alone. Further study will be necessary to assess the durability of these results. (Funded by Ethicon Endo-Surgery and others; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00432809.)
