The Role of Nutrition in Muscle Function of Bariatric Surgery Patients
Current recommendations for protein intake after bariatric surgery are not based on strong scientific evidence. It remains unclear how much protein should be eaten to minimize muscle loss and preserve the metabolism and function of individuals post-bariatric surgery. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationships between changes …
Impact of Bariatric Surgery in Obese Patients With and Without Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
It has been shown to date that obesity is associated with increased mortality and that weight loss significantly improves cardiovascular risk factors. Among patients receiving bariatric surgery, 30-90% have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome. Given the strong associations between OSA and cardiometabolic comorbidities, this project is based …
Changes in Body Fat and Morphologic Characteristics Associated With OSA Resolution After Bariatric Surgery
Prospective study with inclusion of bariatric surgery candidates with diagnosed Obstructive Sleep Apnea and requiring treatment with Continuous Positive Air Pressure, aiming to evaluate at 2-6-12 months after bariatric surgery whether the relationship between biometric changes (reduction in neck circumference, height, waist/hip ratio, and fat and lean mass) and the …
Changes in the Lipidomic, Immunological and miRNA Profile in Patients Undergoing a Dietary Program or Bariatric Surgery
Obesity is a chronic disease characterized phenotypically by an increase in body weight (BMI>30 kg/m2) and by a series of associated pathologies, such as hypertension, diabetes, hepatic steatosis. The association of these pathologies compromises the patient's survival and quality of life. The multifactorial origin of obesity makes its etiopathology difficult …
Correlation of Preoperative Gastric Residual Volume With Body Mass Index and Aspiration Risk in Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery
Obesity is a chronic, complex disease defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as the excessive accumulation of fat in the body that can harm health. Since 1975, the prevalence of obesity has been increasing worldwide, making it a significant public health issue. Body mass index (BMI) is important in …
Impact of Bariatric Surgery and Liraglutide on Cognitive-Behavioral Markers of Long-Term Weight Loss in Obesity
The present research project aims to study the effects of bariatric surgery and liraglutide administration (in patients already selected for one of these procedures) on two cognitive-behavioral processes partially supported by distinct brain networks: automatic approach tendencies (underpinned by the cue-reactivity network) and behavioral inhibition (underpinned by the cue-regulation network). …
The Effects of Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery on Lipid Metabolism, Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells, and Cancer Cell Biology
This study aims to determine the relationship between lipid kinetics changes and blood immunosuppressive cells by metabolic surgery in two patient cohorts.
The Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Kidney Oxygenation in Obese Adults With Type 2 Diabetes and Hyperfiltration
In this study the investigators will examine the effects of VAT reduction by bariatric surgery on kidney hypoxia and compare kidney oxygenation before- and after surgery in both sexes using BOLD-MRI and measures of kidney hemodynamic function. Furthermore, the investigators will assess whether kidney oxygenation is reduced in obese T2D …
Periodontal Assessment of a Bariatric Care Population
Our primary aim is to investigate the prevalence and severity of Periodonotal Disease (PD) in a population of obese patients. Our secondary objectives are to: Investigate inflammatory biomarkers that have been associated with PD in the saliva of obese patients. Investigate the association of FTO gene (Obesity) polymorphisms with the …
Chronic Widespread Pain After Rapid Weight Loss in Non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic/Latino/a/x Adults
The goal of this observational study is to learn if surgical weight loss can improve chronic widespread pain in people living with higher BMI who self-identify as Hispanic/Latino ethnicity or non-Hispanic Black based on the United States census racial categories. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Do …
