“…Furthermore, complete resolution of T2D occurred in 78.1% of patients, verified by improved biochemical parameters (27). Likewise dyslipidemia improves in 70%, hypertension in 61.7%, and obstructive sleep apnea in 85.7% (26); cancer incidence is significantly reduced, attributable to risk reduction in women but not men (108); and psychosocial well-being is enhanced (44,72,197). Despite surgical risk, bariatric surgery for morbid obesity is robustly associated with decreased overall mortality (3,181).…”

“…All studies were observational with respect to eating behavior outcomes, with three studies (four articles) classified as level III-2 evidence [28][29][30][31], one as level III-3 [32] and eight studies (nine articles) as level IV [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41] according to NHMRC guidelines. Two cross-sectional studies [37,42] did not qualify for an evidence rating based on current guidelines.…”

“…Despite the observational nature of studies, most articles reported that subjects received routine follow-up care [29-36, 38, 39, 41]; however, detail regarding nature and frequency of followup varied. Only Colles et al [34] summarized postoperative counseling provided for eating behaviors, with other studies not providing any description of behavioral advice provided during follow-up care [28][29][30][31][32][33][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43].…”

“…2 The threat to public health services is unparalleled and obesity has become a socioeconomic time bomb as a result of its well known cardiovascular, metabolic, reproductive, neoplastic, musculoskeletal and psychosocial complications. 3,4 The target set by the United Kingdom House of Commons Health Select Committee in 1992 was 'for fewer than 6% of men and 8% of women to be obese by 2005'. 5 The inadequacies of current treatments for obesity are illustrated irrefutably by the current figures, which stand at over 25% for women and 23% for men in the UK.…”

“…13,14 In addition, psychological disorders associated with obesity improve, alongside both quality of life and economic productivity. 4,15,16 Particularly impressive is the rapid and complete resolution of type 2 diabetes in B80% of patients who undergo RYGB. Interestingly, this resolution seems to be independent of weight loss, and occurs within days of surgery.…”
