Correlation of Bariatric Surgery Effect on Lipid Profile Among Obese Patients

Abstract: BackgroundA considerable subpopulation of patients with morbid obesity present with dyslipidemia. It is characterized by elevated total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is considered a method of treating morbid obesity and associated dyslipidemia. ObjectiveTo assess the effect of bariatric and metabolic surgery on lipid profile of morbidly obese patients. MethodsWe used a retrospective approach ana… Show more

“…When stratified by DR level at index date no increased odds were seen in either group, which is in accordance with previous findings [ 8 ], however the overall small number of events in our study must be taken in to consideration. We found a significant postoperative drop in plasma TG amongst our case population, which is in accordance with previous studies [ 24 26 ].…”

“…LDL and HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride. Even if we did not reach statistical signi cance our results were in line with those already reported: metabolic surgery has a positive effect on lipid pro le, lowering triglyceride, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol and increasing the level of HDL cholesterol [21].…”

“…Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for morbid obesity and can lead to improvement in several cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertriglyceridemia, hypertension, diabetes, oxidative stress, and others [ 1 ]. There are several reports demonstrating improvement in all parameters of the lipid profile after bariatric surgery [ 2 , 3 , 4 ], conversely, some other reports showed no change, or changes only in TG [ 5 , 6 ]. The discrepancy between studies is unknown, possibly factors such as diet, exercise, and others play a relevant role.…”
