Abstract

Background

Unknown hormonal and neural satiety signals are thought to drive sustainable weight loss following laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB). The objective of this study was to investigate whether the structurally related satiety hormones pancreatic polypeptide (PP) and peptide YY (PYY) influence total percentage weight loss after LAGB.

Methods

A cross-sectional study examined 17 postoperative individuals who had already achieved a mean of 28% LAGB-induced weight loss (range, 10–38%). A prospective study assessed plasma PP and PYY meal responses in 16 obese individuals prior to LAGB.

Results

In the cross-sectional study, individuals with higher weight loss had lower PP meal responses (2-h AUC, R = −0.60, p = 0.01) and lower fasting PYY levels (R = −0.55, p = 0.02). In the prospective study, subsequent mean weight loss was 20% (range, 5–50%) after a mean of 53 months. Low preoperative PP meal response (2-h AUC) predicted significantly higher subsequent weight loss after LAGB (R = −0.56, p = 0.024). The eight individuals with the lowest PP meal response lost more weight than the eight with the highest PP meal response (median 25% vs. 14%, p = 0.004). When compared across all three groups, mean PP meal responses did not differ. Fasting PYY levels, however, were significantly lower in the postoperative group compared to the group tested pre-operatively, or the BMI-matched controls (−30%, p = 0.03).

Conclusions

PYY appears reduced in proportion to weight loss following LAGB, possibly representing attempted orexigenic homeostatic compensation. Although PP responses appear unchanged by weight loss status, low PP meal response may predict higher weight loss. PP meal response may be a biological marker that could predict an individual's susceptibility to the mechanism underlying LAGB-induced weight loss.

Please note that for the comparison with BMI-matched controls, the 0900 PYY levels of the postoperative patients was the mean of the 0900 PYY levels measured on both testing occasions (‘optimal’ and ‘reduced’ restriction).

Echinokokkose medikamentös behandeln oder operieren?

06.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren. 

Recycling im OP – möglich, aber teuer

05.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Auch wenn sich Krankenhäuser nachhaltig und grün geben – sie tragen aktuell erheblich zu den CO2-Emissionen bei und produzieren jede Menge Müll. Ein Pilotprojekt aus Bonn zeigt, dass viele Op.-Abfälle wiederverwertet werden können.

Im OP der Zukunft läuft nichts mehr ohne Kollege Roboter

04.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Der OP in der Zukunft wird mit weniger Personal auskommen – nicht, weil die Technik das medizinische Fachpersonal verdrängt, sondern weil der Personalmangel es nötig macht.

Wo hapert es noch bei der Umsetzung der POMGAT-Leitlinie?

03.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Seit November 2023 gibt es evidenzbasierte Empfehlungen zum perioperativen Management bei gastrointestinalen Tumoren (POMGAT) auf S3-Niveau. Vieles wird schon entsprechend der Empfehlungen durchgeführt. Wo es im Alltag noch hapert, zeigt eine Umfrage in einem Klinikverbund.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

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.
