Objective To investigate the short term and long term effects of laparoscopic gastric bypass on obesity related type 2 diabetes. Methods Twenty obese patients with type 2 diabetes underwent laparoscopic gastric bypass between Nov. 2009 and Feb. 2012 were identified in the computer database of West China Hospital of Sichuan University. All patients had short term follow-up of less than 1 year and among them 11 were with long term follow-up of 1 year or more. Body weight， body mass index （BMI）， blood glucose， glycosylated hemoglobin （HbA1c）， homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance-insulin resistance （HOMA-IR）， blood pressure， and blood lipids were examined. Short term （＜1 year） and long term （≥1 year） remission rates of diabetes were calculated and factors which might have effects on the remission of diabetes were analyzed. Results Of patients with short term follow-up，body weight， fasting plasma glucose （FPG）， 2h plasma glucose （2hPG）， HbA1c， and HOMA-IR were reduced significantly. Among them， 18 of 20 patients （90.0%） reached the glucose and medication standards of complete remission and partial remission， 9 patients were defined as completely remitted （9/20， 45.0%）. Those accompanied with hypertension and （or） hyperlipemia were all improved clinically. The duration of diabetes， fasting and 2 h C peptide were found to be related to short term diabetes remission. Patients with long term follow-up of 1 year or more were observed to have significant reductions in body weight， FPG， 2hPG， HbA1c， and HOMA-IR as well. Hypertension and hyperlipidemia were all well controlled. The remission rate of diabetes reached 9/11 （81.8%）and those who were defined as completely remitted took a proportion of 6/11 （54.5%）. In these patients， those who did not reach the standards of complete remission had longer duration of diabetes and higher FPG when compared with those who did. No severe adverse event was found during the follow-up in either group. Most patients investigated were satisfied with the surgery.Conclusion Laparoscopic gastric bypass is effective and safe on short term and long term treatment of obesity related type 2 diabetes.
Objective To evaluate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and malignant lymphoma by means of Meta-analysis. Methods Such databases as Web of Science, PubMed, EBbase, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM were searched from the date of their establishment to April 2011 to collect the case control studies on the relationship between BMI and malignant lymphoma. Two researchers independently selected studies, extracted data and assessed the quality according to the inclusive and exclusive criteria, and then conducted Meta-analyses by using RevMan5.0 software for heterogeneity test and pooled OR calculation. Results Seven case control studies involving 8416 malignant lymphoma patients and 14760 other patients were included. The quality of all studies scored 4, indicating reliable quality. Meta-analyses of the low BMI, overweight and obesity population were OR=0.8, 95%CI 0.79 to 0.95, P=0.003; OR=1.04, 95%CI 0.98 to 1.11, P=0.16; and OR=1.22 95%CI 1.04 to 1.43, P=0.01, respectively. The stratified Meta-analysis on histological subtypes showed that obesity was associated with a significantly increased risk of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (OR=1.33 95%CI 1.18 to 1.50, Plt;0.000 01), but was not associated with the follicular lymphoma or small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Conclusion These findings demonstrate that low BMI is associated with the decrease of malignant lymphoma, and obesity is an increasing risk of malignant lymphoma, especially, the diffuse large B cell lymphoma.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the clinical effects of green tea extracts on simple obesity. MethodsSystematic retrieval were conducted in PubMed, The Cochrane Library (Issue 8, 2012), CNKI, VIP, CBM, and WanFang Data to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on green tea extracts in treating patients with simple obesity. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the methodological quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.0. ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 693 patients were included. Results of meta-analysis displayed that compared with the control group, patients in the green tea extracts group significantly had a obvious decrease of body mass (WMD=-0.32, 95%CI-0.46 to-0.17, P < 0.000 1) as well as body mass index (BMI) (WMD=-0.07, 90%CI-0.09 to-0.05, P < 0.000 01) with significant differences. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that, green tea extracts could effectively treat simple obesity.
ObjectiveTo explore a surgery of effective weight loss concentrating on gut hormone release. MethodsWistar rats were fed with high-fat diet for inducing obesity and which randomly divided into sleeve gastrectomy plus decent jejunoileal bypass (SJB) group (n=12), sleeve gastrectomy (SG) group (n=12), and sham operation (SO) group (n=11), the body weight reduction, food intake, plasma ghrelin level, and glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) level were compared among three groups. ResultsThere were no differences of the body weight and food intake before operation among three groups (Pgt;0.05). Compared with the SO group, the body weight descended and the food intake decreased obviously on 1-8 weeks after operation in the SJB group (Plt;0.05), the body weight of rats on 1-8 weeks after operation in the SJB group significantly descended as compared with the SG group (Plt;0.05), and the food intake of rats on week 3, 6, 7, and 8 in the SJB group signicantly decreased as compared with the SG group (Plt;0.05). There were no differences of the levels of the plasma ghrelin and GLP-1 before operation among three groups (Pgt;0.05). Compared with SO group, the plasma ghrelin level decreased and the GLP-1 level increased in the SJB group and the SG group, meanwhile the SJB group significantly decreased level of plasma ghrelin and elevated level of plasma GLP-1 as compared with the SG group on week 8 after operation(Plt;0.05). ConclusionThe data demonstrate that SJB could represent an effective way of losing weight by interfering with food intake and obesity related hormone levels.
In 2014, The International Diabetes Federation (IDF), American Diabetes Association (ADA), International Society for Paediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD), and Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS) published several guidelines and consensuses in the clinical diagnosis, treatment and comprehensive management of diabetes mellitus. In addition, guidelines and consensuses published by the American Stroke Association (ASA), American National Lipid Association (ANLA), Chinese Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (CSMB) and European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO) also included some contents related to the management and control of diabetes mellitus. In order to further strengthen the clinical management and treatment of diabetes mellitus, this paper reviewed the important advantages of clinical practice guidelines and consensuses published in 2014 in the field of diabetes mellitus.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of sleeve gastrectomy on preventing adipose infiltration and LOX-1 expression in aortic epithelium of high-fat-diet-induced obese rats. MethodsTwenty-four Wistar rats were randomized into normal chow group (CO group), high-fat diet group (HD group), and high-fat diet combined with sleeve gastrectomy group (SG group). Rats of three groups before operation and CO group after operation were fed with normal diet, rats of HD and SG group were fed with high-fat diet. Body weight of all the rats were examined on day 10, 20, and 30 after operation, respectively. Animals were sacrificed on day 30 after operation and plasma HDL and LDL were detected by ELISA, LOX-1 and LOX-1 mRNA expression in aortic epithelium were measured by Western blot and real-time RT-PCR, respectively. Immunochemical histological Nile red stain was adopted in adipose infiltration examination of aorta. ResultsThe body weights in HD group were much higher than those of other groups （Plt;0.01）. The HDL in CO, HD, and SG groups was (32.9±6.2) mg/dl, (43.4± 4.0) mg/dl, and (37.5± 4.3) mg/dl, respectively. The LDL in CO, HD, and SG groups was (31.8±4.5) mg/dl, (53.3±5.1) mg/dl, and (40.5±3.7 ) mg/dl, respectively. The HDL and LDL values in HD group were higher than those of other two groups (Plt;0.05, Plt;0.01). The LOX-1 protein and mRNA expressions in HD group were much higher than those of other groups (Plt;0.01). Adipose staining in HD group was also ber than that of other groups. ConclusionsHigh-fat diet can induce elevation of LOX-1 protein and mRNA expression in aorta. Sleeve gastrecto my can relieve plasma LDL level, as a result, LOX-1 protein and mRNA expression should be down-regulated.
