Postoperative Biochemical Outcomes in Metabolic Bariatric Surgery: Results from a High-Adherence Cohort
Background/Objectives: In metabolic bariatric surgery, structured follow-up protocols may play an essential role in achieving optimal patient outcomes. This study aims to report postoperative biochemical outcomes in a cohort of post-bariatric patients who underwent a structured follow-up protocol.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent metabolic bariatric surgery and completed a one-year follow-up at Cannizaro Hospital from October 2022 to May 2024. Anthropometric, clinical, and laboratory data were collected for each patient at five different timepoints: baseline, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months post-surgery. All data were organized into a database and analyzed through descriptive statistics.
Results: The study cohort (n = 80) showed a follow-up adherence equal to 97.5%. The mean value of BMI decreased from 42 to 27 one year after surgery. Lipid profiles improved, with significant reduction in total cholestero l and triglycerides and increase in HDL levels; LDL levels decreased initially but at one year returned to baseline. Thyroid hormones TSH and fT3 decreased significantly, while fT4 remained stable. A reduction in hepatic inflammation was observed, as evidenced by the decrease in GGT and transaminase levels. Pancreatic enzymes showed an initial increase but stabilized at the subsequent timepoints. Glycemic control improved, with statistically significant reductions in insulin, HbA1c, and glucose levels, and complete remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus in affected patients. Conclusions: This study shows significant weight loss and improved health outcomes in post-bariatric patients who underwent a structured follow-up protocol, suggesting the potential benefits of metabolic bariatric surgery. © 2024 by the authors.
