“…In addition, the quality of life was improved in more than 90% of patients ( Noel et al, 2018 ). A simpler device named Gastric Clip ( Chao et al, 2019 ) was also used in clinics. The gastric clip creates a transverse gastric partition when obliquely applied to the upper fundus ( Chao et al, 2019 ).…”

“…A simpler device named Gastric Clip ( Chao et al, 2019 ) was also used in clinics. The gastric clip creates a transverse gastric partition when obliquely applied to the upper fundus ( Chao et al, 2019 ). One year after surgery, BMI was significantly reduced from 44 to 37 kg/m 2 , and the total weight loss (weight loss/pre-operative body weight × 100%) was 23.5%.…”

“…One year after surgery, BMI was significantly reduced from 44 to 37 kg/m 2 , and the total weight loss (weight loss/pre-operative body weight × 100%) was 23.5%. Diabetes and hyperlipidemia were effectively alleviated as well ( Chao et al, 2019 ), and the effects were much better when combined with a proximal jejunal bypass. The possible mechanisms underlying clip-induced weight change require further studies.…”

Obesity is a chronic disease that affects over 795 million people worldwide. Bariatric surgery is an effective therapy to combat the epidemic of clinically severe obesity, but it is only performed in a very small proportion of patients because of the limited surgical indications, the irreversibility of the procedure, and the potential postoperative complications. As an alternative to bariatric surgery, numerous medical devices have been developed for the treatment of morbid obesity and obesity-related disorders. Most devices target restriction of the stomach, but the mechanism of action is likely more than just mechanical restriction. The objective of this review is to integrate the underlying mechanisms of gastric restrictive bariatric devices in obesity and comorbidities. We call attention to the need for future studies on potential mechanisms to shed light on how current gastric volume-restriction bariatric devices function and how future devices and treatments can be further improved to combat the epidemic of obesity.
