Abstract

Obesity is a critical public health issue worldwide. Patients with obesity have markedly increased morbidity and mortality compared to the general population. The increased health risks of obesity in part are due to its close association with each of the other components of the metabolic syndrome, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. Accordingly, obese individuals are at particularly increased risk of cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. Modest weight loss results in improvements in serum cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and glycemic profiles. Lifestyle interventions for weight loss have long been the mainstay of treatment in obesity. However, the existing literature demonstrates limited weight loss sustainability and inconsistent cardiovascular and renal benefits using these modalities. In addition to improvements in intermediate risk factors, surgical interventions provide a more lasting impact on long-term cardiovascular and renal outcomes, though carry higher short-term risks due to perioperative complications.

In this recent Cochrane Review of RCT’s evaluating one to two year outcomes following bariatric surgery, the authors concluded that bariatric surgery results in greater, more sustained reduction in body weight and obesity-associated comorbidities compared to non-surgical interventions. The authors also noted that adverse events associated with bariatric surgery and re-operation rates are poorly reported in the literature.

This large, multi-center RCT randomized patients with type 2 diabetes to lifestyle interventions (including calorie-restricted diet and increased physical activity) versus diabetes support and education, with plans to follow patients up to 13.5 years. The study was discontinued early on the basis of futility because of a failure to detect a difference in cardiovascular events between the treatment and control groups after a median follow up of 9.6 years.

This single center RCT of obese type 2 diabetics randomized 150 patients to intensive medical therapy versus bariatric surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or gastric sleeve). At three years of follow up, patients who underwent surgical intervention had significantly higher rates of remission of type 2 diabetes compared to those randomized to medical therapy alone. Those surgical patients who remained on antiglycemic medications were on less aggressive regimens compared to the medical intervention group. Patients who underwent bariatric surgery had much more dramatic weight loss and improved quality of life compared to medical therapy alone.PubMedPubMedCentral
