Abstract

Background

Morbid obesity is associated with multiple comorbidities including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It has been suggested that OSA may contribute to NAFLD pathogenesis due to intermittent nocturnal hypoxia.

Purpose

The objective of this study was to assess the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and lower minimum oxygen saturation, markers of OSA, in patients undergoing bariatric surgery (BSx) with perioperative liver biopsy to detect NAFLD.

Methods

This was a single center cross-sectional study of 61 patients undergoing BSx who consented to have a perioperative wedged liver biopsy. Biochemical, clinical, anthropometric variables, and a sleep study test were performed prior to BSx.

Results

NAFLD was diagnosed in 49 (80.3%) patients; 12 had normal liver (NL). Those with NAFLD had significantly higher (p < 0.05) AST (42.6 vs 18.1 U/L) and ALT (35.0 vs 22.1 U/L) but similar clinical, anthropometric, and metabolic parameters to NL. There was a higher AHI (32.03 vs 14.35) and significantly lower minimum oxygen saturation (SaO2) (78.87 vs 85.63) in NAFLD compared with NL (p < 0.05). When assessing associations between OSA parameters and liver histology in NAFLD, AHI correlated significantly with lobular inflammation (p < 0.05). In a multivariate analysis, BMI was significantly correlated with lobular inflammation with mean SaO2 nearing significance.

Conclusions

These results indicate that in a homogeneous bariatric population sample with similar characteristics, those with NAFLD had higher AHI and lower minimum SaO2 compared with NL. AHI correlated with liver inflammation suggesting a potential role for intermittent nocturnal hypoxia in the pathogenesis and progression of NAFLD.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom CME-Kurs
CME: 2 Punkte

Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Antoniadis Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
