The preliminary results of EXPOBAR study

Listed in Teesside University Research Data Repository

Obesity affects over 650 million individuals worldwide and it is a major public health problem.

Description

Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for severe obesity, resulting in significant weight reduction and improvement in obesity-related conditions. However, the weight loss achieved through bariatric surgery often correlates with a notable decrease in skeletal muscle.

This correla-tion suggests an elevated risk of sarcopenia among patients after surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of obesity and bariatric surgery on sarcopenia-related indicators and diagnosis before and after surgery. A total of 17 bariatric surgery patients were included in this prospective study.

The parameters to diagnose sarcopenia were determined for each partic-ipant, based on EWGSOP2 and EASO/ESPEN consensuses. All evaluations were performed on the five moments of this study: before surgery and at 1, 6, 12 and 18 months after surgery.
