Control of hypertension after roux-en-y gastric bypass among obese diabetic patients.

Profile of the obese patients submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass whithout diabetes melittus type 2 remission and/or insufficient weight loss.

BACKGROUND The literature reports that gastrojejunal derivation with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is highly efficient in controlling weight and resolving; but studies have shown worsened glycemic control in a considerable number of patients and associated factors that have not been fully elucidated. AIM To analyze the profile of patients submitted to gastric bypass that did not achieve satisfacto...

The Short-Term Remission of Diabetic Nephropathy After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass in Chinese Patients of T2DM with Obesity

The study aimed to examine the effect of gastric bypass on diabetic nephropathy (DN) in Chinese patients. A retrospective study of 101 samples with DN stages I to IV underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Anthropometric and biochemical parameters were assessed during a 1-year follow-up. Binary logistic regression analysis was used for predictors and ROC for cutoff points. There was significant red...

Plastic surgery improves long-term weight control after bariatric surgery.

BACKGROUND The positive impact of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass on weight, comorbidities, and health-related quality of life is well documented. However, 50 percent of patients regain some of the lost weight after 2 years with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and present a mean weight regain of 10 to 15 percent after several years, partially losing the previously obtained benefits. The authors hypothesize t...

Comparison of roux-en-y gastric bypass techniques with and without distal gastric plication in patients with morbid obesity

Obese patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 undergoing gastric bypass in Roux-en-Y: analysis of results and its influence in complications.

BACKGROUND About 90% of type 2 diabetic patients are obese or overweight. The obvious clinical improvement observed with surgeries, such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, has opened space for research by different factors than only weight loss, as responsible for the return to euglycemia and reduction of medication use. AIM To evaluate the efficacy and safety of surgical treatment of diabetes in o...
