Bariatric Surgery in Prospective Obese Living Kidney Donors: Scoping Review and Management Decision Algorithm

Bariatric Surgery in Prospective Obese Living Kidney Donors: Scoping Review and Management Decision Algorithm

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38127433/

BS shows promise with short-term effectiveness and potential long-term outcomes. However, it should not be perceived as a means to expand the donor pool but rather as a personalized approach...

Cost-benefit analysis favors bariatric surgery over nephrectomy in obese donors (cost-benefit ratio: 3.64) when graft survival is equal.

Effect of Carbohydrate Restriction on Body Weight in Overweight and Obese Adults: a Systematic Review and Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of 110 Randomized Controlled Trials

Effect of Carbohydrate Restriction on Body Weight in Overweight and Obese Adults: a Systematic Review and Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of 110 Randomized Controlled Trials

Source : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10731359/

Carbohydrate-restricted diets are one of the most effective dietary interventions for weight loss. However, the optimum carbohydrate intake for implementing the most effective weight-loss interventions is still being discussed. We...

If the goal is to achieve weight loss in the short term, a low-carbohydrate diet could produce a greater weight-loss effect, and it is recommended to keep protein 20%-25% of calorie intake.

Effect of Remotely Supervised Weight Loss and Exercise Training Versus Lifestyle Counseling on Cardiovascular Risk and Clinical Outcomes in Older Adults With Rheumatoid Arthritis: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Effect of Remotely Supervised Weight Loss and Exercise Training Versus Lifestyle Counseling on Cardiovascular Risk and Clinical Outcomes in Older Adults With Rheumatoid Arthritis: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38126260/

In older patients with RA and overweight/obesity, 16 weeks of remotely supervised weight loss, aerobic training, and resistance training improve cardiometabolic health, patient-reported outcomes, and disease activity.

The Impact of Early-Stage Chronic Kidney Disease on Weight Loss Outcomes After Gastric Bypass

The Impact of Early-Stage Chronic Kidney Disease on Weight Loss Outcomes After Gastric Bypass

Source : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10687110/

Weight loss achieved through bariatric metabolic surgery was demonstrated to be effective at reversing chronic kidney dysfunction associated with obesity-related glomerulopathy.

After bariatric metabolic surgery, there was a statistically significant reduction in body weight and BMI (P<0.0001).

Alterations in the Mammary Gland and Tumor Microenvironment of Formerly Obese Mice

Alterations in the Mammary Gland and Tumor Microenvironment of Formerly Obese Mice

Source : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10693119/

Obesity is a risk factor for breast cancer, and women with obesity that develop breast cancer have a worsened prognosis. Within the mammary gland, obesity causes chronic, macrophage-driven inflammation and...

Although weight loss did not completely reduce the rate of tumor growth, the microenvironment of the resulting tumors was less fibrotic and immunosuppressive than tumors from obese mice.
