Core Tip
Core Tip: In this retrospective single-center study, we found that the preoperative perirenal fat area (PrFA), an important factor linking obesity and hypertension, is an independent predictor of hypertension resolution after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Particularly, PrFA could achieve an accuracy of approximately 85% in predicting resolution using the generalized additive model. Based on the curvilinear correlation between PrFA and resolution rate, we set 18 cm2 as the cutoff value for PrFA and found that patients with PrFA < 18 cm2 had a higher hypertension resolution rate than those with PrFA ≥ 18 cm2 [87% vs 68.1%; odds ratio (95% confidence interval) = 3.513 (1.367-9.902), P = 0.012].
