Gastrointestinal hormones and bariatric surgery-induced weight loss

Abstract: Obesity continues to be a major public health problem in the United States and worldwide. While recent statistics have demonstrated that obesity rates have begun to plateau, more severe classes of obesity are accelerating at a faster pace with important implications in regards to treatment. Bariatric surgery has a profound and durable effect on weight loss, being to date one of the most successful interventions for obesity. Objective To provide updates to the possible role of gut hormones in post bariatric su… Show more

“…The nutritional education after bariatric surgery stressed the importance of a correct protein intake with an overall reduction of fat, with the aim of losing weight, but also of avoiding side effects like steatorrhea. The stomach changes that take place after surgery produce two effects, which could explain the reduction in oral intake: a physical change in the decreased size and a physiological change in the impact on ghrelin secretion [12].…”

“…While mechanical restriction of food intake is a dominating contributor to the weight loss observed after bariatric surgery, weight loss is often greater than expected by restriction alone [6]. There is a growing body of evidence that the hormonal effects of bariatric surgery are also responsible for the weight loss [7]. However, the extent and sustainability of postsurgical weight loss markedly differs between individuals [8].…”

“…During the last three decades, the prevalence of obesity has increased enormously, and it is usually assumed that environmental changes are the main causes, although genetic bases can undoubtedly be involved [1]. In 2008, according to the WHO, 1.4 billion adults were overweight and 500 million adults were In SG, a partial gastrectomy is performed, in which the majority of the greater curvature of the stomach is removed and a tubular stomach is created [7]. An SG constitutes the upper abdominal component of the biliopancreatic diversion with a duodenal switch.…”

“…43,44 Despite this lack of effective treatments and strategies, some governments are being advised to consider financial penalties for obese patients in regard to health insurance, justified by the belief that obesity is a personal choice. 45 In the USA, the National Institutes of Health has funded the Childhood Obesity Prevention and Treatment Research (COPTR) consortium formed to prevent obesity in preschoolers and treat obesity in 1,700 13-17 year olds.…”
