Abstract
INTRODUCTION To evaluate the effects of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on physical, behavioral, and psychosocial outcomes in patients with obesity undergoing metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) through a meta-analysis. METHOD Randomized controlled trials assessing the therapeutic effects of CBT in patients undergoing MBS were searched in databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. The search cutoff date was February 7, 2025. Data analysis was performed using Stata (version 16.0, StataCorp, 2019). RESULTS A total of 7 randomized controlled trials were included in the final analysis. The meta-analysis indicated that CBT appeared to significantly decrease anxiety, depressive symptoms, uncontrolled eating, and emotional eating immediately after the intervention, but these effects seemed to disappear at the 1-year follow-up. In addition, CBT seemed not to affect weight, body mass index, physical quality of life, and mental quality of life at any time. DISCUSSION CBT may alleviate anxiety, depressive symptoms, uncontrolled eating, and emotional eating in the short term. IMPLICATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that CBT may enhance psychosocial and behavioral health among patients with obesity undergoing MBS. Future randomized controlled trials with larger sample sizes and longer follow-ups are needed to evaluate their long-term impacts.

Abstract
To explore the experiences and preferences of patients and healthcare professionals regarding the development of an app to provide psychological intervention to improve emotion regulation in the context of bariatric surgery (BS). Sixteen people (6 patients who underwent BS and 10 professionals) participated in two separate focus group sessions. We performed a content analysis of transcribed focus group discussions to extract and organize categories, subcategories and areas. Both sets of stakeholders provided information about how to develop and implement an app. According to participants' comment, content should include information (i.e., nutrition, exercise) and emotional regulation skills. Patients and professionals mentioned that the app should include visual information, continuous emotional assessments and peer contact. It was also mentioned that the app should be used before and after BS and its contents should be developed by a multidisciplinary team (i.e., collaboration of endocrinologist, nutritionists and psychologists). Participants in both focus groups considered technology to be useful in the context of BS, especially as part of blended interventions (combining face-to-face and online sessions). Patients and professionals seem to be receptive towards the use of technology in a BS context. Specific recommendations are identified for designing and implementing app solutions for BS. More efforts should be made in the future to develop and implement evidence-based apps according to patients and professionals' needs.

Abstract
Multidisciplinary support can help patients improve health and cope with changes after metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS). However, there is uncertainty regarding what intervention components, delivery methods and intensity are effective. To understand how intervention effects are achieved, we performed a process evaluation of a 15-session pre- and post-MBS programme comprising medical, dietary and psychological interventions delivered via group sessions until 9 months postsurgery. The evaluation examined programme relevance, perceived fit and practicability ('appropriateness') and satisfaction with content and delivery ('acceptability'). Interviews (n = 11) and focus groups (n = 2) were performed with 21 patients in different programme phases. Programme fidelity was assessed using administrative data on attendance in 1.396 patients. Presurgery, practicing with postoperative recommendations and multiple social components, was described as useful. Although participants found several postoperative components helpful (e.g. meal planning), the perceived fit was lower due to group delivery, session spacing and varying needs. Attended programme time postsurgery was lower than presurgery. Individual needs varied in terms of support intensity and type, and by gender, age and surgery type. Participants recommended greater session spacing, as maintaining behaviours >1 year postsurgery was expected to be most challenging. Participants requested additional information on negative lived experiences, exercise and coping with various postoperative changes. Programme fit can be improved by taking patients' varying needs into account in a flexible programme, with a duration beyond the first postoperative year, and more attention to negative lived experiences, exercise and coping with changes.

Longitudinal associations between self-regulation and physical activity behavior following metabolic bariatric surgery; an exploratory study. Int J Behav Nutr Phys Act 2025; 22:40. [PMID: 40200354 PMCID: PMC11980339 DOI: 10.1186/s12966-025-01739-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2025] [Indexed: 04/10/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Low adherence to moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) recommendations among patients undergoing metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is common. However, understanding of psychosocial factors that contribute to low adherence levels is limited. Self-regulation plays a key role in MVPA adherence. Still, the longitudinal and bidirectional associations between self-regulation and MVPA in the MBS patient population remains unexplored. This study aimed to investigate how self-regulatory processes of action- and coping planning, and action control, developed over a 1-5-year post-surgery period, and explore longitudinally the direct, indirect, and bidirectional associations between this development in self-regulation and MVPA assessed at 1- and 5-years after surgery. METHODS Participants from the Oslo Bariatric Surgery Study (OBSS) completed MVPA-specific self-regulation questionnaires at 1-, 3-, and 5-years post-surgery and wore ActiGraph monitors for seven days at 1- and 5-years to assess daily MVPA. Second-order latent growth curve modeling examined changes in the three self-regulation constructs, followed by path analysis to explore direct, indirect, and bidirectional associations between baseline levels and changes in self-regulation, and MVPA at 1- and 5-years post-surgery. RESULTS A total of 205 (82.8%), 195 (64.6%), and 79 (26.2%) male and females (77%) participated at 1-, 3-, and 5-years after surgery, respectively. Action- and coping- planning decreased with.52 and.30 sd, respectively, over 1-5 years post-surgery. This indicates a moderate effect size. Action control remained relatively stable. Indirect and bidirectional path analyses showed that only higher levels of action control at 1-year were indirectly associated with higher MVPA at 5-years through their impact on MVPA at 1-year, whereas there were no indications of bidirectional associations from MVPA levels at 1-year to changes in any of the self-regulation constructs over time. CONCLUSIONS After MBS, patients exhibited low self-regulation 1-year post-surgery, and many participants faced growing difficulties in self-regulating over time. Self-regulation at 1-year was positively linked to MVPA, with action control only, being associated with MVPA at 5-years. However, no bidirectional associations from MVPA to self-regulation were found. These findings suggest further research is needed to test interventions targeting action control to improve MVPA adherence and optimize surgical outcomes and overall health after MBS.

Abstract
This study aims to identify evasion predictors and factors in the preoperative period of metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) through a review and evaluations of professionals involved, as well as patient knowledge and information, aiming at positive long-term results. This article performed a systematic literature review (SLR) in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. It used the PRISMA Protocol with a record of 7 years to obtain documents published a year before the pandemic, during and after it. The search strategy resulted in 4649 records, of which 51 studies were included in the review. Subsequently, an analysis was carried out in which the professionals who met the patient participated in a qualitative survey, in which the results were analyzed and compared to those obtained in the SLR. The decision to undergo MBS is influenced by fears, uncertainties, and the need for support, particularly for elderly patients. Health professionals are crucial in providing continuous guidance and support throughout the process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Overvaluation of shape and weight (OSW) is a risk factor for psychopathology in those who have undergone bariatric surgery, and overvaluation of excess skin (OES) may present similar psychological risks. Identifying potential gender and racial differences in post-surgical OSW and OES, and their associations with psychosocial outcomes, may inform more individualized assessment and treatment for those who have undergone bariatric surgery. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, individuals up to 4 years post-bariatric surgery completed an online survey of various psychosocial outcomes. Overvaluation was examined via the shape and weight overvaluation subscale of the Eating Disorders Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q), and a modified item was used to assess the overvaluation of excess skin. Quality of life (QOL), depression, and anxiety symptoms were also examined. Gender and racial differences in OSW and OES were examined. Correlations were obtained between OSW/OES, QOL, and psychological symptoms among gender and racial groups. RESULTS Of 735 participants, women endorsed significantly greater OES than men (p = .008). There were no significant gender differences in OSW. White patients endorsed greater OSW than Black patients (p < .001), and there were no racial differences in OES. OSW and OES were inversely correlated with QOL among all groups. OSW and OES were positively associated with anxiety and depressive symptoms among both racial groups and women. CONCLUSION Women may be at greater risk for OES than men, while White patients may be at increased risk for OSW. However, OSW/OES related to poorer QOL in all groups, and greater psychological symptoms in women.

Abstract
Background: Obesity represents a global epidemic associated with significant health risks, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers. Management strategies have evolved from focusing solely on weight reduction to emphasizing overall health improvements and mitigating associated risks. Methods: This narrative review analyzed the existing peer-reviewed literature across databases such as PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar to examine the outcomes of bariatric surgery and its interplay with weight stigma. The review incorporated data from clinical studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses, focusing on bariatric surgery and its psychological impact, as well as approaches to mitigate stigma in bariatric care. Results: Bariatric surgery has emerged as the most effective intervention for sustained weight loss and the resolution of obesity-related comorbidities. However, individuals undergoing surgery frequently encounter weight stigma, both pre- and postoperatively, which manifests through discriminatory healthcare interactions, societal biases, and internalized self-criticism. These factors contribute to anxiety, depression, diminished healthcare engagement, and weight regain, ultimately affecting the long-term surgical outcomes. Conclusions: Addressing weight stigma in bariatric care is critical to optimizing outcomes. Interventions such as preoperative counseling, postoperative psychological support, and multidisciplinary care can mitigate the psychological and societal burdens of stigma. This review explores the intricate relationships between obesity, bariatric surgery outcomes, weight stigma, and the health-related quality of life (HRQOL).

Abstract
Disordered eating behavior has been linked to suboptimal weight outcomes following metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS), thereby threatening the most efficacious treatment for severe obesity. While up to 40% of patients may experience loss of control (LOC) eating following MBS, mechanisms driving this behavior are not fully understood. Preliminary evidence suggests that high levels of negative affect (NA) in the moment prompt LOC eating post-MBS; however, it remains unclear whether this momentary relationship is stable or changes over the first several years following surgery. Consequently, this study examined differences in the prospective relationship between NA and LOC eating severity over time post-MBS using three waves of ecological momentary assessment data collection. Participants (n = 143, 87% female), were asked to rate momentary levels of NA and LOC eating severity on their smartphone ≥5 times/day for 7 days at 1-, 2-, and 3-years post-MBS. Both NA and LOC eating were rated on a 1-5 Likert scale, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms. NA was within- and between-person centered and used as a prospective predictor of LOC eating severity. Analyses evaluated if time post-MBS moderated the relationship. A generalized linear mixed model demonstrated that higher NA predicted more severe LOC eating at the next signal when centered within- and between-subjects. Time post-MBS moderated the within-NA to LOC eating severity effect, such that the relationship remained unchanged between years 1 and 2, but strengthened between years 2 and 3. Findings suggest that momentary NA becomes a more powerful predictor of LOC eating severity as time passes post-MBS, which has important implications for interventions aimed at reducing LOC eating and promoting optimal weight outcomes in the post-surgical period.

Enhancing the outcomes of bariatric surgery with inhibitory control training, electrical brain stimulation and psychosocial aftercare: a pilot study protocol. J Eat Disord 2024; 12:202. [PMID: 39654020 PMCID: PMC11626763 DOI: 10.1186/s40337-024-01160-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 11/22/2024] [Indexed: 12/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Notwithstanding the documented short- and long-term weight loss and remission of physical and mental diseases following bariatric surgery, a significant proportion of patients fail to respond (fully) to treatment in terms of physical and mental health improvement. Mounting evidence links food-specific impulsivity, prefrontal cortex (PFC) hypoactivity and disrupted hormone secretion in bariatric surgery candidates to poorer post-surgical health outcomes. Neuromodulatory treatments like transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) uniquely target these neurobehavioral impairments. We present a pilot study protocol offering tDCS combined with an inhibitory control training and a structured psychosocial intervention to patients after bariatric surgery. METHODS A total of N = 20 patients are randomized to 6 sessions of verum or sham tDCS over the PFC, combined with an individualized food-specific inhibitory control training and a structured psychosocial intervention within 18 months after bariatric surgery (t0). Beyond acceptability, feasibility and satisfaction of the intervention, effects of verum versus sham tDCS on food-specific impulsivity and on secondary outcomes quality of life, general impulsivity and psychopathology, food-related cravings, eating disorder psychopathology, weight trajectory and endocrine markers are assessed 4 weeks (t1) and 3 months after the intervention (t2). DISCUSSION Results will provide information on the potential of combining tDCS with an inhibitory control training and a structured psychosocial intervention to enhance physical and mental outcomes after bariatric surgery. The present study may guide the development of future research with regard to tDCS as a brain-based intervention and of future post-surgical clinical programs, paving the way for randomized-controlled trials in larger samples. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial was prospectively registered on July 8, 2024, under the registration number DRKS00034620 in the German Clinical Trials Register ( https://drks.de/search/de/trial/DRKS00034620 ).

Abstract
Sleep disturbance is common during recovery after surgical procedures and may have an important effect on mortality, and quality of life. Sleep restriction/deprivation, including decreased quantity and continuity, is common in patients who are patients and persons with acute and chronic illnesses. Age, gender, illness, primary sleep disorders, environment, and medical treatment factors are thought to influence sleep throughout the preoperative period, hospitalization, and recovery. Resulting sleep pattern disturbances include decreases in circadian patterning, continuity, duration, and perceived (subjective) sleep quality. This article synthesizes sleep disturbance in patients who have undergone surgery and highlights sleep strategies to improve faster surgical recovery.

Psychological Benefits of a Preoperative Educational Bridging Program for Bariatric Surgery: Does Face-to-Face versus Videoconference-Based Delivery Make a Difference? Obes Facts 2024; 17:553-569.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Short educational programs prior to metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) provide information to prepare patients adequately for surgery and subsequent changes. Our knowledge of the beneficial effects of these programs on stabilizing and improving mental health of patients with obesity awaiting surgery is incomplete. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of a group-based educational program before MBS on three key factors: (i) patients' mental health, (ii) the program's perceived helpfulness from the patients' perspective, and (iii) the effectiveness of delivering the program online via videoconferencing. METHODS Validated questionnaires for anxiety, depression, stress, and quality of life before and after the program were assessed. Additionally, participants' perspectives of benefits were assessed. Two subgroups, one participating in face-to-face classes, the other participating online via videoconferencing, were compared. RESULTS Three hundred five patients with obesity waiting for MBS participated in the program. The dropout rate was 3%. On mean average, symptoms of anxiety (-1.1 units [SD 4.6], p < 0.001), depression (-0.9 units [SD 4.6], p < 0.001), and stress (-4.6 units [SD 15.6], p < 0.001) improved, while physical quality of life (+1.7 units [SD 9.7], p = 0.016) and body weight (-0.3 kg [SD 8.7], p = 0.57) remained stable. Patients perceived the program as very beneficial. The results were similar between delivery methods (face-to-face vs. videoconferencing). CONCLUSION The educational program proved to be effective in bridging the gap in preoperative preparation while also stabilizing participants' mental health. In addition, participants perceived the program as supportive. Online participation via video conferencing can be offered as an equivalent option to face-to-face classes.

COVID-19-Related Increases in Depressive and Anxious Symptoms Are Associated with Maladaptive Eating Among Patients up to 4 years Post-bariatric Surgery. Obes Surg 2024; 34:2580-2586. [PMID: 38839635 PMCID: PMC11338285 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-024-07326-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Depressive and anxious symptoms and maladaptive eating behaviors fluctuate with stressful events for patients seeking bariatric surgery. These associations are less clear for patients postoperatively. Using the COVID-19 pandemic as a frame, we examined associations between changes in depressive and anxious symptoms and maladaptive eating behaviors between up to four years postoperatively. METHODS Participants (N = 703) who underwent surgery between 2018 and 2021 completed web-based questionnaires between 2021 and 2022. Demographic and surgical data were obtained from electronic health records. Participants reported whether depressive and anxious symptoms increased or were stable/decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic, and completed eating behavior measures. RESULTS Many participants reported increased depressive (27.5%) and anxious (33.7%) symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared to those who reported stable or decreased symptoms, these participants were as follows: (1) more likely to endorse presence of binge, loss-of-control, graze, and night eating; (2) reported higher emotional eating in response to anger and frustration, depression, and anxiety; and (3) reported higher driven and compulsive eating behaviors. Frequency of binge, loss-of-control, graze, and night eating episodes did not differ between groups (e.g., increased vs. stable/decreased anxious symptoms) among participants who endorsed any episodes. CONCLUSION A large portion of the sample reported increased depressive and anxious symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic, and these increases were associated with maladaptive eating behaviors. Depressive and anxious symptoms and eating behaviors should be assessed postoperatively as significant stressors may be associated with increased distress and maladaptive eating behaviors that can affect postoperative outcomes. Postoperative interventions may be useful at simultaneously targeting these concerns.

Abstract
Eating disorders (EDs) and obesity are complex health conditions sharing various risk and maintenance factors, intensified in cases of comorbidity. This review explores the similarities and connections between these conditions, examining different facets from a multidisciplinary perspective, among them comorbidities, metabolic and psychological factors, neurobiological aspects, and management and therapy implications. We aim to investigate the common characteristics and complexities of weight and EDs and explore their interrelationships in individuals who experience both. The rising prevalence of EDs in people with obesity necessitates integrated approaches to study this comorbidity and to identify and analyze both common and distinct features of these conditions. This review may offer new opportunities for simultaneous prevention and management approaches, as well as future lines of research.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bariatric surgery is the most successful method for weight loss; however, weight regain may occur in the long term. It depends on eating habits and self-management. The study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis on bariatric surgery and weight gain and to determine the content and trends in the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS The scan was performed using the keywords "bariatric surgery" and "weight gain" in the Web of Science database. The years of publications and citations, the distribution of publications according to journals, research areas, and countries, co-authorship, co-occurrence, and co-citation were analyzed. The VOSviewer program was used for the analysis. Grey literature, books, and book sections were not included. RESULTS A total of 988 articles were included. The results showed that the most published and cited journal was Obesity Surgery, and the most published country was the USA with 313 publications. The most commonly used keywords were "bariatric surgery," "obesity," and "weight regain." Harvard University was the most publishing institution with 50 publications. The most published year was 2022 since 1993 (n:118). CONCLUSION In the study, current publications and research trends related to bariatric surgery and weight gain were analyzed through bibliometric analysis. It was concluded that weight regain after bariatric surgery should be focused on since it adversely affects the life of individuals, reduces the probability of success of surgical treatment, and imposes additional burdens on the healthcare system.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery can cause numerous functional changes to recipients, some of which are unintended. However, a systematic evaluation of wide-angled health benefits and risks following bariatric surgery has not been conducted. We systematically evaluated published systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials and observational studies reporting the association between bariatric surgery and health outcomes. We performed subgroup analyses by surgery type and sensitivity analysis, excluding gastric band. Thirty systematic reviews and 82 meta-analyzed health outcomes were included in this review. A total of 66 (80%) health outcomes were significantly associated with bariatric surgery, of which 10 were adverse outcomes, including suicide, fracture, gastroesophageal reflux after sleeve gastrectomy, and neonatal morbidities. The other 56 outcomes were health benefits including new-onset diabetes mellitus (DM) (odds ratio [OR] = 0.39; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.19-0.79), hypertension (OR = 0.36; 95% CI = 0.33-0.40), dyslipidemia (OR = 0.33; 95% CI = 0.14-0.81), cancers (OR = 0.65; 95% CI = 0.53-0.80), cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and women's health. Surgery is associated with reductions in all-cause mortality and death due to cancer, DM, and CVD. Bariatric surgery has both beneficial and harmful effects on a broader than expected array of patients' health outcomes. An expansion of the indication for bariatric surgery could be discussed to include a broader population with metabolic vulnerabilities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to describe longitudinal trajectories of Total Weight Loss (%TWL), and mental and physical health related quality of life (HRQOL), as well as to identify preoperative psychological predictors of these trajectories. METHODS A prospective observational study including Dutch patients treated with metabolic and bariatric surgery (n = 420, age 44.8 ± 10.3 years, 78.6% females) was performed. Trajectories of %TWL and HRQOL from screening to 1-, 2-, and 3-years post-surgery were described using growth mixture modelling. Multivariable and lasso regression models were used to identify predictors. RESULTS Three trajectories described %TWL, varying in the degree of first-year weight loss. No pre-surgical psychological factors were associated with %TWL trajectories. We identified four physical and five mental HRQOL trajectories. Approximately 25-30% of patients exhibited patterns of initial improvements followed by decline, or persistently low levels of HRQOL. Higher depressive symptoms were associated with these unfavourable physical HRQOL trajectories (OR 1.20, 95%CI 1.04-1.39), adjusted for confounders. Unfavourable mental HRQOL trajectories were predicted by depressive and anxiety symptoms, neuroticism, insecure attachment, and maladaptive coping. In contrast, self-esteem, extraversion, and conscientiousness were associated with favourable mental HRQOL trajectories. DISCUSSION Psychological factors did not predict weight loss, but they significantly impacted patient's HRQOL after metabolic and bariatric surgery. A subgroup with unsuccessful HRQOL after surgery was identified, who would benefit from tailored preoperative counselling to optimize surgery outcomes. Metabolic and bariatric surgery may not be universally beneficial for all patients, challenging the conventional approach to surgical interventions for severe obesity and advocating for a more nuanced, individualized assessment of potential candidates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multidisciplinary screening of bariatric surgery candidates is recommended, and some centers provide an additional preparation program (APP) to optimize patients preoperatively. OBJECTIVE To compare patients with APP to standard care 2 years after primary bariatric surgery regarding postoperative weight loss and resolution of obesity-related comorbidities. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted for patients undergoing primary Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy between September 2017 and March 2019. The first 12 months patients received an APP, after September 2018, the APP was no longer part of the weight loss trajectory. A multivariable linear regression model was built. RESULTS Of the 384 patients receiving an APP advice, 50 were lost to follow up. In total, 192 (57%) received the APP and 142 (43%) received standard care. Percentage total weight loss after 2 years was significantly different, 28.8% for the APP group versus 32% for the standard group (p = 0.001). Postoperative weight loss after 2 years was increased in patients who had a gastric bypass, a higher baseline body mass index, and female gender in multivariable analysis. An APP was predictive for decreased postoperative weight. Diabetes mellitus was in remission significantly more often in the preparation group (84.1% of the cases) compared with the standard group (61.9%, p = 0.028). CONCLUSION A weight loss trajectory is at least as effective without additional preparation in terms of 2 years postoperative %TWL for primary gastric bypass and sleeve procedures. For comorbidities, diabetes mellitus was in remission more often in the APP group.

Insufficient Weight Loss or Weight Regain After Bariatric Metabolic Surgery. Int J Endocrinol Metab 2023; 21:e136329. [PMID: 38666043 PMCID: PMC11041817 DOI: 10.5812/ijem-136329] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Context This review study aimed to investigate the definition, etiology, risk factors (RFs), management strategy, and prevention of insufficient weight loss (IWL) and weight regain (WR) following bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS). Evidence Acquisition Electronic databases were searched to retrieve relevant articles. The inclusion criteria were English articles with adult participants assessing the definition, prevalence, etiology, RFs, management strategy, and prevention of IWL/WR. Results Definition: The preferred definition for post-BMS IWL/WR are the terms "Lack of maintenance of total weight loss (TWL)>20%" and "weight change in percentage compared to nadir weight or weight loss". Prevalence: The exact prevalence of IWL/WR is still being determined due to the type of BMS and various definitions. Etiology: Several mechanisms, including hormonal/metabolic, dietary non-adherence, physical inactivity, mental health, and anatomic surgical failure, are possible etiologies of post-BMS IWL/WR. Risk factors: Preoperative body mass index (BMI), male gender, psychiatric conditions, comorbidities, age, poor diet, eating disorders, poor follow-ups, insufficient physical activity, micronutrients, and genetic-epigenetic factors are the most important RFs. Management Strategy: The basis of treatment is lifestyle interventions, including dietary, physical activity, psychological, and behavioral therapy. Pharmacotherapy can be added. In the last treatment line, different techniques of endoscopic surgery and revisional surgery can be used. Prevention: Behavioral and psychotherapeutic interventions, dietary therapy, and physical activity therapy are the essential components of prevention. Conclusions Many definitions exist for WR, less so for IWL. Etiologies and RFs are complex and multifactorial; therefore, the management and prevention strategy is multidisciplinary. Some knowledge gaps, especially for IWL, exist, and these gaps must be filled to strengthen the evidence used to guide patient counseling, selection, and improved outcomes.

Abstract
An important field of anesthesiology but also of psychiatry and psychotherapy, is perioperative anxiety and especially the fear of death. In this review article the most important types of anxiety in the individual phases before, during and after surgery are presented and diagnostic aspects as well as risk factors are discussed. Benzodiazepines can classically be used therapeutically here, but in recent years the preoperative anxiety-reducing effects of e.g., supporting talks, acupuncture, aroma therapy, and relaxation methods have come more into focus, because benzodiazepines promote postoperative delirium, which significantly increases morbidity and mortality. Perioperative fear of death should, however, be given greater clinical and scientific attention in order not only to have a better understanding and preoperative care of patients, but also to reduce adverse consequences during surgery and afterwards.

Real-time versus retrospective self-report assessment of loss-of-control eating in adults undergoing bariatric surgery. Obesity (Silver Spring) 2023; 31:363-373.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Loss-of-control (LOC) eating is common in adults undergoing bariatric surgery. Agreement between real-time and retrospective assessment methods is unclear. METHODS Adults with severe obesity reported on LOC eating over the preceding 28 days via Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) items and in near real time over 10 days via ecological momentary assessment (EMA; involving daily repeated surveys delivered via smartphone in the natural environment), with both assessment forms completed before surgery and at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Wilcoxon signed rank tests and generalized linear mixed models were used to compare participants' EDE-Q and EMA reports of subjectively and objectively large LOC episodes across time points. RESULTS Participants reported subjectively large LOC episodes more frequently via EMA than EDE-Q across time points, although differences did not reach statistical significance (all p > 0.05). Conversely, objectively large LOC episodes were more frequently reported via EDE-Q than EMA, with differences reaching significance at 6 months post surgery only (p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Agreement between real-time and retrospective assessments of LOC eating varied by episode size and time elapsed in the year following surgery. These findings should be considered when designing assessment batteries for bariatric surgery-seeking adults and when extrapolating research findings across studies with diverging methods of real-time versus retrospective self-report assessment of LOC eating in adults undergoing bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Although bariatric surgery results in a significant weight reduction and an improvement in the quality of life in most people who undergo surgery, there are inter-individual differences in terms of postoperative results. Psychological, psychiatric and addictive disorders contribute substantially to these difficulties. Between 20% and 50% of bariatric surgery candidates have a current psychiatric/addictive disorder and approximately 30-75% have a history of a psychiatric/addictive disorder within their lifetime. Surgery is accompanied in the short-term by an improvement in depressive symptoms and binge eating, but these symptoms tend to increase again beyond the 3rd postoperative year. Over the long-term, only the improvement in depression remains durable, whilepostoperative anxiety and disordered eating symptoms do not differ significantly from the preoperative levels. There is a two to four fold increased risk of post-surgical suicide and suicide attempts (from the 1st postoperative year onward), as well as an increased risk of alcohol-abuse (beyond two years after surgery). Psychological support must therefore continue long-term. Several psychotherapeutic and pharmacological treatments have demonstrated their effectiveness in improving the postoperative prognosis of patients with psychological/psychiatric disorders. The early integration of psychological/psychiatric/addiction evaluation and support into multidisciplinary management makes it easier to identify these difficulties and to optimize the postoperative prognosis, both in terms of weight and quality of life. Prior to surgery, patients should be systematically evaluated by a psychologist or psychiatrist in order to identify and to manage disorders that could negatively impact the postoperative prognosis. After surgery, this assessment and support can be carried out in a programmed and systematic way for those patients who were identified preoperatively as the most vulnerable, but support can also be offered during follow-up in the event of specific symptoms (i.e., loss of control over food intake, failure in terms of weight or quality of life, suicidal ideation, loss of control over alcohol use, significant depression or anxiety symptoms).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Up to 37% of bariatric surgery patients suffer from insufficient weight loss or weight regain and mental health symptoms in the longer term. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) may be an effective adjunct intervention to optimize patients' psychological functioning and weight loss results. To examine the value of adding preoperative CBT to bariatric surgery, three- and five-year follow-up data are presented. METHOD In this multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT; N = 130), a CBT group was compared to a treatment-as-usual (TAU) control group. Measurements were conducted at five time points: pretreatment (T0) and posttreatment/presurgery (T1) and at one- (T2; N = 120), three- (T3; N = 117), and five-year postsurgery (T4; N = 115). The intervention group received a 10-weeks, individual, preoperative CBT focused on self-monitoring, identifying triggers for disordered eating and goal setting for eating behavior and physical exercise, as well as postoperative lifestyle. Outcome measures included weight change, eating behavior, eating disorders, depression, quality of life (QoL), and overall psychological health. RESULTS Preoperative CBT was not associated with better three- and five-year results than TAU regarding weight, dysfunctional eating behaviors, eating disorders, depression, overall psychological health, and QoL. DISCUSSION Contrary to our hypothesis, three- and five-year postsurgery differences between groups regarding weight change and mental health were not significant.. Further exploration suggested that in both groups weight problems and depressive symptoms worsened at three and five-year follow-up. Future research should focus on long-term postoperative monitoring of weight and mood and on associated postoperative interventions and their specific timing. PUBLIC SIGNIFICANCE After bariatric surgery, in the longer term weight problems re-occur in 30% of patients, which is probably partly related to psychopathology. We investigated whether cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) prior to bariatric surgery improved weight maintenance and mental health after surgery. Our study provided definite proof that preoperative CBT is not effective. Long-term postoperative monitoring and prompt psychological intervention after first signs of deterioration, are important to prevent further problems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Loss-of-control (LOC)-eating postoperatively predicts suboptimal longer-term outcomes following bariatric surgery. This study examined longer-term effects through 24-month follow-ups after completing treatments in a randomized controlled trial testing guided-self-help treatments (cognitive-behavioral therapy [gshCBT] and behavioral weight-loss [gshBWL]) and control (CON) delivered postoperatively for LOC-eating. METHODS 140 patients with LOC-eating 6 months after bariatric surgery were randomized (5:5:2 ratio) to 3-months of gshCBT (n = 56), gshBWL (n = 60), or CON (n = 24) delivered by trained allied-health clinicians. Independent assessments were performed throughout/after treatments and at 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24-month follow-ups; 83% of patients were assessed at 24-month follow-up. RESULTS Intention-to-treat analyses comparing the three groups (gshCBT vs. gshBWL vs. CON) in LOC-eating abstinence at posttreatment (30%, 27%, 38%), 12-month follow-up (34%, 32%, 42%), and 24-month follow-up (45%, 32%, 38%) revealed no significant differences. Mixed-models revealed significantly reduced LOC-eating frequency through posttreatment, no significant changes in LOC-eating frequency during follow-up, and no differences between the three groups. Weight reduced significantly, albeit modestly, through posttreatment but increased significantly and substantially during follow-ups, with no differences between groups. CONCLUSIONS Overall, the 12-week scalable guided-self-help treatments did not differ from each other or control, were associated with significantly reduced frequency of LOC-eating and modest weight loss at posttreatment but were followed by significant weight gain during the 24-month follow-up. Weight gain was substantial and nearly universal whereas the frequency of LOC-eating did not change over time (i.e., LOC-eating reductions and abstinence rates were well maintained through 24-moth follow-ups). Patients with postoperative LOC-eating require more intensive adjunctive treatments. PUBLIC SIGNIFICANCE Loss-of-control (LOC) eating postoperatively predicts poorer bariatric surgery outcomes and the longer-term effects of postoperative adjunctive postoperative interventions for LOC eating are unknown. In this 24-month follow-up of a controlled study of scalable guided-self-help treatments and a control condition, improvements in LOC-eating frequency, eating-disorder psychopathology, and depression during treatment were maintained well, with no differences between the three groups. Proportion of patients achieving abstinence from LOC-eating at the 24-month follow-up ranged from 38% to 45% across the three groups. In contrast, weight increased significantly during the 24-month follow-ups, with no differences between the three groups. Findings suggest LOC-eating following bariatric surgery might represent a "marker" for a subgroup of patients that are at risk for substantial weight gains over time. LOC eating following bariatric surgery is challenging to treat with low-intensity scalable treatments and may require more intensive specialist treatments.

A Positive Emotion-Focused Intervention to Increase Physical Activity After Bariatric Surgery: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial. JMIR Res Protoc 2022; 11:e39856. [PMID: 36201380 PMCID: PMC9585441 DOI: 10.2196/39856] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Physical activity levels after bariatric surgery are usually low, despite the significant protective health benefits of physical activity in this population. Positive psychological well-being is associated with improved adherence to health behaviors, but bariatric surgery patients often have negative associations with physical activity that prevent sustained engagement. Objective The Gaining Optimism After weight Loss Surgery (GOALS) pilot randomized controlled trial is aimed at testing a novel intervention to increase physical activity after bariatric surgery, which incorporates positive psychological skill-building with motivational interviewing and goal-setting. Methods The GOALS trial is a 2-arm, 24-week pilot randomized controlled trial that aims to enroll 58 adults who report less than 200 minutes per week of moderate to vigorous physical activity and a desire to become more active 6-12 months after bariatric surgery. GOALS is testing the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a positive psychology–motivational interviewing telephone intervention targeting to increase physical activity and associated positive affect. Intervention components include positive psychology, goal-setting, self-monitoring via provided Fitbits, and motivational interviewing to overcome barriers and increase motivation. The intervention is compared to a physical activity education control that includes mailings with psychoeducation around physical activity and provision of a Fitbit. The primary outcomes of the pilot trial are feasibility and acceptability, measured as session completion rates and participant ratings of ease and helpfulness of each session. The main secondary outcome is change in accelerometer-measured moderate to vigorous physical activity post intervention and at 24-week follow-up. Additional outcomes include changes in attitudes related to physical activity, psychological well-being, and physical health measures. Results This multiphase project was funded in 2020 and institutional review board approval was obtained for the proposed trial in 2021. Recruitment for the randomized controlled trial began in July 2022. Upon completion of the pilot trial, we will examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the intervention. Conclusions Although bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment available for severe obesity, weight regain occurs, often in the context of low psychological well-being. Many individuals would benefit from learning strategies to increase positive psychological well-being after bariatric surgery, which could help them maintain lifestyle changes. Positive psychology is a novel approach to improve adherence by increasing positive associations with health behaviors including physical activity. The GOALS pilot trial will determine whether this type of intervention is feasible and acceptable to this population and will provide a foundation for a future full-scale randomized controlled efficacy trial.

Abstract
(1) Dietary behavior is highly relevant for patients after bariatric surgery. No instrument exists assessing adherence to medical guidelines concerning the dietary behavior of patients after bariatric surgery. The aim of this study was to develop and validate such an instrument. (2) Data from patients after bariatric surgery (n = 543) were collected from March to May 2022. The development of the DBI-S was theory-based and interdisciplinary. Items’ and content validity of the DBI-S were examined. (3) The final version of the DBI-S consists of 13 items. Convergent validation was confirmed by significant correlations between DBI-S score and attitude towards healthy food (r = 0.26, p = <0.001) and impulsivity (r = −0.26, p = <0.001). Criterion validity was confirmed by significant correlations between DBI-S score and pre-/post-surgery BMI difference (r = −0.14, p = 0.002), pre-/post-surgery weight difference (r = 0.13, p = 0.003), and quality of life (r = 0.19, p = <0.001). Cluster analysis confirmed the ability to distinguish between two dietary behavior clusters (rather healthy and rather unhealthy). (4) The DBI-S is an economic and valid instrument to assess the adherence of post-bariatric surgery patients to the relevant dietary behavior recommendations and guidelines and can distinguish between rather unhealthy and healthy dietary behavior.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early postoperative weight loss can be predictive of one-year outcomes. It is unclear if poor performers identified in the first post-operative month can have improvement in outcomes with additional support and education. PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of a structured targeted support program for patients with lower-than-average early post-operative weight loss on 1-year outcomes. METHODS This was a prospective randomized study of bariatric surgery patients who experienced less than 50th percentile excess body weight loss (%EWL) at 3 weeks. Subjects with EWL < 18% were randomized into two groups: an intervention (IV) arm or a control (NI, no intervention) arm. The IV arm was offered a program with 7-weekly behavioral support sessions, while the NI patients received routine post-operative care. RESULTS A total of 128 patients were randomized: 65 NI and 63 IV. In the IV group, 20 attended all sessions, 7 attended < 4, and 36 did not participate. There was no difference in baseline demographics, procedure type, or BMI. At 1 year, there was no difference in %EWL (ratio 0.993, 95% CI 0.873, 1.131), %EBMIL (ratio 0.997, 95% CI 0.875, 1.137), and %TWL (ratio 1.016, 95% CI 0.901, 1.146) between groups. A subgroup analysis including only the subjects who participated in all seven sessions showed similar results. CONCLUSION Patients who present with suboptimal weight loss early after bariatric surgery do not experience a significant weight loss improvement with a structured behavioral support program. Importantly, despite being alerted to their poor early weight loss, patients demonstrated poor adherence to the proposed interventions.

Abstract
Additional preoperative programmes may be beneficial for candidates who seek bariatric surgery, but there is no consensus on the optimal preparation. This systematic review aimed to summarize the effects of a preoperative programme on weight loss. A literature search was performed for Embase, Cinahl, PubMed and Cochrane Library. Studies on preoperative exercise, behaviour and/or diet programmes administered in adult patients in a bariatric trajectory measuring weight loss were included. Initial results yielded 2148 titles, 70 of which were thoroughly analysed and 37 articles were included, comprising 10 333 patients. Eleven out of 37 studies included postoperative weight loss as an outcome in interventions focused on diet (n = 5), behaviour (n = 2), exercise (n = 2) and a combination of interventions (n = 2). Only one study (9%) which administered exercise as a preoperative programme showed a significant effect on postoperative weight loss. In total, 33 studies included preoperative weight loss as an outcome, which was significant in 64% of the cases. It is difficult to draw conclusions from the investigated data as it was extremely heterogeneous concerning the intensity, duration and administration of a programme. Nevertheless, it seems that a preoperative weight loss programme seems beneficial in terms of preoperative weight loss, postoperative physical activity and improved mental health postinterventional. The use of a core outcome set is recommended for future studies.

Abstract
AIM To assess the effectiveness of perioperative psychological interventions provided to patients with clinically severe obesity undergoing bariatric surgery regarding weight loss, BMI, quality of life, and psychosocial health using the Bayesian approach. METHODS We considered randomised trials that assessed the beneficial and harmful effects of perioperative psychological interventions in people with clinically severe obesity undergoing bariatric surgery. We searched four data sources from inception to 3 October 2021. The authors independently selected studies for inclusion, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias. We conducted a meta-analysis using a Bayesian approach. PROSPERO CRD42017077724. RESULTS Of 13,355 identified records, we included nine studies (published in 27 papers with 1060 participants (365 males; 693 females, 2 people with missing data)). Perioperative psychological interventions may provide little or no benefit for BMI (the last reported follow-up: MD [95% credible intervals] = -0.58 [-1.32, 0.15]; BF01 = 0.65; 7 studies; very low certainty of evidence) and weight loss (the last reported follow-up: MD = -0.50 [-2.21, 0.77]; BF01 = 1.24, 9 studies, very low certainty of evidence). Regarding psychosocial outcomes, the direction of the effect was mainly inconsistent, and the certainty of the evidence was low to very low. CONCLUSIONS Evidence is anecdotal according to Bayesian factors and uncertain whether perioperative psychological interventions may affect weight-related and psychosocial outcomes in people with clinically severe obesity undergoing bariatric surgery. As the results are ambiguous, we suggest conducting more high-quality studies in the field to estimate the true effect, its direction, and improve confidence in the body of evidence.

Abstract
Binge eating disorder (BED) is characterized by regular binge eating episodes during which individuals ingest comparably large amounts of food and experience loss of control over their eating behaviour. The worldwide prevalence of BED for the years 2018-2020 is estimated to be 0.6-1.8% in adult women and 0.3-0.7% in adult men. BED is commonly associated with obesity and with somatic and mental health comorbidities. People with BED experience considerable burden and impairments in quality of life, and, at the same time, BED often goes undetected and untreated. The aetiology of BED is complex, including genetic and environmental factors as well as neuroendocrinological and neurobiological contributions. Neurobiological findings highlight impairments in reward processing, inhibitory control and emotion regulation in people with BED, and these neurobiological domains are targets for emerging treatment approaches. Psychotherapy is the first-line treatment for BED. Recognition and research on BED has increased since its inclusion into DSM-5; however, continuing efforts are needed to understand underlying mechanisms of BED and to improve prevention and treatment outcomes for this disorder. These efforts should also include screening, identification and implementation of evidence-based interventions in routine clinical practice settings such as primary care and mental health outpatient clinics.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the effect of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) on emotional and mindless eating and, consequently, body mass index (BMI) loss, in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective exploratory cohort study was conducted with two groups of patients who had undergone bariatric surgery: the DBT group received DBT group skills training sessions, while the control group received no intervention. Outcome measurements included BMI and scores of the Emotional Eating Scale (EES) and Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ). RESULTS The study included 36 women: 18 in each group. In the DBT group, the interval from surgery was 11.17 ± 7.12 months, and in the control group 10.89 ± 5.74. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy was done in 88.9% and 83.3% of patients in the DBT and control groups respectively. The rest underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The DBT group showed significant changes in overall and subscale scores of the EES and MEQ and BMI in kg/m2 after 6 months of follow-up. BMI in kg/m2 changed from mean ± SD 35.45 ± 6.17 to 28.47 ± 4.28 in the DBT group, in control 35.88 ± 5.07 to 31.56 ± 3.71. The excess weight loss percentage (EWL%) in the DBT was mean ± SD 75.3 ± 17.9 and in the control was 63.6 ± 14.5. In the DBT group, the EES score and MEQ score changed from mean ± SD 45.06 ± 20.19 to 20.50 ± 13.40 and 11.52 ± 2.02 to 15.87 ± 1.92, respectively. The control group showed no significant change in scores. CONCLUSIONS DBT skills training can reduce emotional eating, increase mindful eating, and facilitate weight loss after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Background Patients undergoing bariatric surgery have high rates of psychiatric comorbidity, which may increase their vulnerability to COVID-19-related mental health distress. Exacerbation of mental health distress and disordered eating could have significant negative effects on long-term weight management and quality of life for these patients if untreated. Objective To determine the efficacy of a telephone-based cognitive behavioral therapy (Tele-CBT) intervention in improving depressive, anxiety, and disordered eating symptoms during COVID-19. Methods Participants were recruited as part of a larger randomized controlled trial study (clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT03315247) between March 2020 and March 2021 and randomized 1:1 to receive Tele-CBT or standard bariatric care. Outcomes of Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Emotional Eating Scale (EES), and Binge Eating Scale (BES) were measured at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and 3 months post-intervention. Linear mixed models were used to test the effect of intervention group, time, and group-by-time interaction for each outcome. Results Eighty-one patients were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. Mean (SD) age of participants was 47.68 (9.36) years and 80.2% were female. There were significant group-by-time interactions for all outcomes and significant differences between groups across time. There were significant decreases in mean GAD-7 (p = 0.001), PHQ-9 (p < 0.001), EES-Total (p = 0.001), EES-Anger (p = 0.003), EES-Anxiety (p < 0.001), EES-Depression (p < 0.001), and BES (p = 0.002) scores for the Tele-CBT group at post-intervention and follow-up when compared to baseline and the control group. Conclusion Tele-CBT is a feasible and effective treatment for improving psychological distress and disordered eating among post-operative bariatric surgery patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many individuals who undergo bariatric surgery have experienced repeated unsuccessful diet attempts and negative messages from healthcare providers, family, and others about their weight. Research pre- and post-operatively has taken a pathological or risk-based approach, investigating psychiatric problems and disordered eating. In contrast, the current study explores resilience in this population. METHODS Participants were 148 bariatric surgery patients. Participants completed measures pre-operatively and 1.5-3 years post-operatively, including the Binge Eating Scale, Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire, Generalized Anxiety Questionnaire, Impact of Weight on Quality of Life, Coping Responses Inventory, and Duke Social Support and Stress Scales. The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale was measured post-operatively. RESULTS Correlations demonstrated a significant association between post-operative resilience and lower symptoms of binge eating, disordered eating, depression, anxiety, and impact of weight on quality of life. Resilience was also associated with greater social support and less social stress, and greater use of approach coping strategies. Resilience was significantly associated with improvements in symptoms of binge eating, disordered eating, depression, anxiety, and impact of weight on quality of life from pre- to post-operative assessments. In regression models, associations remained significant after controlling for psychosocial variables at baseline (e.g., binge eating symptoms pre-operatively) and demographic covariates. CONCLUSIONS Psychological resilience has been under-studied in the literature on obesity and bariatric surgery, with a primary focus on risk factors for poor outcomes. This study was among the first to investigate associations between resilience and post-operative psychological outcomes. Results suggest the field would benefit from consideration of patient resilience in psychological assessments and interventions.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is the branch of surgery aimed at helping a person with obesity lose weight. The implementation of surgical treatment of obesity is growing at an impressive rate. As expected, the expanding implementation of bariatric procedures has progressively revealed critical issues that were not evident when the number of obese patients treated with surgery was relatively small. One critical issue is the importance of mental health assessment and care of bariatric patients. The aim of this review is to provide readers with an up-to-date summary of the goals, methods, and clinical strategies of bariatric psychiatry. The aims can be grouped into three distinct categories. First, to ascertain that there are no psychiatric contraindications to safe bariatric surgery. Second, to diagnose and treat pre-surgery mental conditions that could predict poor weight loss. Third, to diagnose and treat post-surgery mental conditions associated with poor quality of life. Although bariatric psychiatry has gained the status of a new subspecialty within the field of mental health and psychopathology, many clinical questions remain unsolved. We need more long-term data on outcome measures such as quality of life, adherence to behavioral guidelines, risk of suicide, and post-surgery prevalence of psychological disturbances and mental disorders.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity are interrelated in a complex manner, and their coexistence predisposes patients to a plethora of medical problems. Metabolic surgery has evolved as a promising therapeutic option for both conditions. It is recommended that patients, particularly those of Asian origin, maintain a lower body mass index threshold in the presence of uncontrolled DM. However, several comorbidities often accompany these chronic diseases and need to be addressed for successful surgical outcome. Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are the most commonly used bariatric procedures worldwide. The bariatric benefits of RYGB and LSG are similar, but emerging evidence indicates that RYGB is more effective than LSG in improving glycemic control and induces higher rates of long-term DM remission. Several scoring systems have been formulated that are utilized to predict the chances of remission. A glycemic target of glycated hemoglobin < 7% is a reasonable goal before surgery. Cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, endocrine, nutritional, and psychological optimization of surgical candidates improves perioperative and long-term outcomes. Various guidelines for preoperative care of individuals with obesity have been formulated, but very few specifically focus on the concerns arising from the presence of concomitant DM. It is hoped that this statement will lead to the standardization of presurgical management of individuals with DM undergoing metabolic surgery.

A systematic review. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2021; 17:2065-2080. [PMID: 34474983 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2021.07.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effect of eHealth-delivered interventions for adults who undergo bariatric surgery on postoperative weight loss, weight loss maintenance, eating psychopathology, quality of life, depression screening, and self-efficacy. Six electronic databases were searched, with 14 studies (across 17 reports) included, involving 1633 participants. With substantial heterogeneity, qualitative descriptions have been provided. Interventions were delivered via an online program or internet modules (n = 2), telephone (n = 2), text messages (n = 2), videoconferencing (n = 3), mobile application (n = 1), and audiovisual media (n = 1). Three studies included a combination, including internet modules and telephone (n = 1), wireless fidelity scales, emails, and telephone (n = 1), and a combination of online treatment, weekly emails, and access to a private Facebook group (n = 1). All the eHealth interventions, except for one, implemented behavior change techniques, including self-monitoring, problem solving, social support, goal setting, and shaping knowledge. Both eHealth intervention and control groups lost weight across the included studies, and eHealth was found to be as effective as or more effective than the control for weight loss. Two studies measured weight loss maintenance; both eHealth and control groups regained weight in the longer term. The interventions showed significant improvement on assessment measures for eating psychopathology. In conclusion, when bariatric surgery patients have limited or no access to healthcare teams or require additional support, eHealth may be a suitable option. Future studies implementing eHealth interventions would benefit from reporting intervention components as per the behavior change techniques taxonomy and further consideration of delivering eHealth in a stepped care approach would be beneficial.

[PMID: 33040143 PMCID: PMC8262552 DOI: 10.1093/advances/nmaa121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2020] [Revised: 07/25/2020] [Accepted: 09/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Bariatric surgery (BS) has proven to be highly efficacious in the treatment of obesity and its comorbidities. However, careful patient selection is critical for its success. Thus, patients should undergo medical, behavioral, and nutritional assessment by a multidisciplinary team. From the nutritional point of view, BS candidates should undergo nutritional assessment, preparation, and education by a registered dietitian in the preoperative period. Currently, detailed specified and comprehensive information on these topics is lacking. The present narrative review aimed to summarize the available literature concerning both the preoperative nutritional assessment components and the preoperative nutritional preparation and education components of patients planning to undergo BS. Current literature indicates that proper management before BS should include a comprehensive nutritional assessment, in which it is advisable to perform a clinical interview to assess patients' medical background, weight management history, eating patterns and pathologies, oral health, physical activity habits, nutritional status, supplementation usage, BS knowledge, surgery expectations and anthropometric measurements. Nutritional preparation and educational strategies should include an individualized preoperative weight-loss nutrition program, improvement of glycemic control, micronutrients deficiencies correction, eating and lifestyle habits adaptation, physical activity initiation, and strengthening knowledge on obesity and BS. At this stage, more well-designed intervention and long-term cohort studies are needed in order to formulate uniform evidence-based nutritional guidelines for patients who plan to undergo BS, including populations at higher nutritional risk. Moreover, postoperative outcomes of presurgical nutritional intervention programs should be studied.

Abstract
PURPOSE In the management of bariatric surgery follow-up, a multidisciplinary approach allows to evaluate the weight loss maintenance and the dietary and lifestyle changes adherence. The main aim of this study is to create and to validate a questionnaire (eating behavior after bariatric surgery (EBBS)) to objectivize the compliance to dietary/lifestyle suggestions after bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS An observational retrospective monocentric clinical trial was carried out at the Bariatric Surgery Unit of Modena, Italy. All weight-related data of bariatric surgery patients collected during the multidisciplinary post-surgical path were recorded. EBBS questionnaire and three validated psychological tests were administered. EBBS includes 11 questions concerning food (domain A), drinks (B), behaviors (C), and lifestyle (S). All data analyzed in the study were collected during the same visit. RESULTS In 41 enrolled patients (52.2 + 11.9 years), the total weight loss after surgery was 44.87 + 18.37 kg (- 35.40 + 11.60%), with a weight loss maintenance of 86.92 + 14.30%. The EBBS questionnaire showed a good internal validity (Cronbach's alpha 0.743, Hotelling's T-square test p < 0.001). The S domain was directly related with the percentage of weight loss maintained (p = 0.048), suggesting that the frequent physical activity and the periodic weight self-check are the most predictive behaviors to obtain weight control. None of the psychological questionnaires appeared related to the weight trend. CONCLUSIONS We validated for the first time a 11-item self-filling questionnaire allowing to quantify the adaption to dietary/lifestyle suggestions provided after bariatric surgery. EBBS questionnaire could be a useful tool both in clinical and research setting to monitor the patient's adherence to post-surgical indications and to identify predictive factors for bariatric surgery efficacy.

Abstract
Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) yields unprecedented clinical outcomes, though variability is high in weight change and health benefits. Behavioral weight management (BWM) interventions may optimize MBS outcomes. However, there is a lack of an evidence base to inform their use in practice, particularly regarding optimal delivery timing. This paper evaluated the efficacy of BWM conducted pre- versus post- versus pre- and post-MBS. The review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement and included pre- and/or post-operative BWM interventions in adults reporting anthropometric and/or body composition data. Thirty-six studies (2,919 participants) were included. Post-operative BWM yielded greater decreases in weight (standardized mean difference [SMD] = -0.41; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.766 to -0.049, p < 0.05; I2 = 93.5%) and body mass index (SMD = -0.60; 95% CI: -0.913 to -0.289, p < 0.001; I2 = 87.8%) relative to comparators. There was no effect of BWM delivered pre- or joint pre- and post-operatively. The risk of selection and performance bias was generally high. Delivering BWM after MBS appears to confer the most benefits on weight, though there was high variability in study characteristics and risk of bias across trials. This provides insight into the type of support that should be considered post-operatively.

Abstract
The increased recognition of patients' mental health needs after bariatric surgery has resulted in the emergence of accessible psychosocial interventions; however, there is a dearth of literature on patient experience and satisfaction with these interventions. We explored patients' perceptions and experiences of telephone-based cognitive behavioural therapy (Tele-CBT) in this qualitative study. Ten participants from the Toronto Western Hospital Bariatric Surgery Program in Toronto, Canada who completed the Tele-CBT (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02920112) were individually interviewed from November 2014 to June 2016 until thematic saturation occurred (ie, no more new coding groups emerged). Interviews were transcribed, independently coded, checked for discrepancies, and analysed using grounded theory. Four themes emerged: (1) participants were generally satisfied with Tele-CBT (eg, therapeutic alliance, resources provided, relevance of therapy to their own bariatric journey), (2) participants noticed emotional, cognitive, and behavioural changes following therapy, (3) the optimal time to deliver the Tele-CBT was when weight loss plateaued, generally at one-year post-surgery, and (4) participants found the telephone modality convenient. CBT was generally found to be helpful and the telephone format increased convenience and accessibility. Patients reported learning skills and receiving resources that could help them improve their well-being following bariatric surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Loss-of-control (LOC) eating postoperatively is a consistent predictor of suboptimal longer-term bariatric surgery outcomes. This randomized controlled trial examined the effectiveness of two guided self-help treatments (cognitive behavioral therapy [gshCBT] and behavioral weight loss [gshBWL]) compared with a control (CON) for reducing LOC eating and weight. METHODS A total of 140 patients with recurrent LOC eating approximately 6 months after bariatric surgery were randomly assigned (5:5:2 ratio) to one of three conditions: gshCBT (n = 56), gshBWL (n = 60), or CON (n = 24). Three-month treatments were delivered by trained allied health clinicians to increase generalizability to bariatric surgery settings. Independent assessments were performed by doctoral research-clinicians using established interviews/measures; posttreatment outcomes were obtained for 89% of patients. RESULTS Mixed models revealed significant improvements for LOC eating frequency and weight loss but no significant differences between treatments; race neither predicted (main effect) nor moderated (interaction effect) treatment outcomes. Intent-to-treat categorical analyses of abstinence from LOC eating (30% for gshCBT, 27% for gshBWL, 38% for CON) and proportion attaining 5% weight loss (20%, 22%, 17%) revealed no significant differences between treatments; non-White participants had a higher proportion achieving LOC eating abstinence but a lower proportion attaining 5% weight loss compared with White participants. CONCLUSIONS In this 12-week randomized controlled trial following bariatric surgery, significant LOC eating reductions and weight loss did not differ significantly between treatments. Race was associated with posttreatment categorical outcomes.

Abstract
Our study aimed to explore the influence of bariatric surgery (BS) on heart rate (HR) variability (HRV) through a systematic review. Manuscripts were selected based on electronic searches of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL databases from the inception of each database up to year 2020, and followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol. Searching of these studies was systematized using the Population Intervention Comparison Outcome Study Design strategy. We selected randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials and cohorts from prospective studies that reported the influence of BS on HRV. We assessed the quality rating using the Black and Downs questionnaire. Following the screening and eligibility stages, 14 studies were included in the review. All studies agreed that BS promotes an increase in parasympathetic HR control and HRV and a decrease in HR. Yet the literature does not provide evidence that these outcomes are directly caused by the surgical procedure. There is limited evidence to support that patients with type 2 diabetes have greater improvement in HRV as an interim measure, to individuals without. The decrease in insulin resistance was correlated with the increase in HRV in some studies, but, other studies are unsupportive of this outcome. Improvements in 2 metabolic parameters (e.g., leptin, N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide) were connected with superior increases in HRV. This review demonstrated that BS promotes an increase in HRV, indicating improved autonomic control of HR.

Patients with Severe Obesity during the COVID-19 Pandemic: How to Maintain an Adequate Multidisciplinary Nutritional Rehabilitation Program? Obes Facts 2021; 14:205-213. [PMID: 33744894 PMCID: PMC8089441 DOI: 10.1159/000513283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic is spreading all over the world, particularly in developed countries where obesity is also widespread. There is a high frequency of increased BMI in patients admitted to intensive care for SARS-CoV-2 infection with a major severity in patients with an excess of visceral adiposity. Patients at risk of severe SARS-CoV-2 acute respiratory syndrome are characterised by the high prevalence of pre-existing diseases (high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or cancer), most of them typically present in severely obese patients. Indeed, the biological role of adipose tissue in sustaining SARS-CoV-2 infection is not completely elucidated. SUMMARY The forced isolation due to pandemic containment measures abruptly interrupted the rehabilitation programs to which many patients with severe obesity were enrolled. People affected by obesity, and especially those with severe obesity, should continue clinical rehabilitation programs, taking extra measures to avoid COVID-19 infection and reinforcing the adoption of preventive procedures. In this review, the available data on obesity and COVID-19 are discussed along with evidence-based strategies for maintaining the necessary continuous rehabilitation programs. Key Messages: Greater attention is needed for obese and severely obese patients in the face of the current COVID-19 pandemic, which represents a huge challenge for both patients and healthcare professionals. The adoption of new strategies to guarantee adequate and continuous multidisciplinary nutritional rehabilitation programs will be crucial to control the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection in high-risk populations as well as the worsening of obesity-linked complications. Health authorities should be urged to equip hospitals with tools for the diffusion of telemedicine to maintain physician-patient communication, which is fundamental in chronic and complicated obese patients.

Increased Cardiopulmonary Fitness Is Associated with a Greater Reduction in Depression among People Who Underwent Bariatric Surgery. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18052508. [PMID: 33802552 PMCID: PMC7967516 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18052508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of changes in cardiopulmonary fitness on the mental health of patients with severe obesity who underwent gastric bypass surgery (prior to and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery). Study participants were recruited from among patients of a regional hospital in Czechia who underwent gastric bypass surgery between April 2018 and October 2019. They were eligible if they (a) were between 18 and 65 years old, (b) provided written informed consent, and (c) were able to walk independently. Twenty-six patients (age 45.4 ± 9.0 years, body mass index 45.1 ± 7.4 kg·m−2, body fat 43.8 ± 4.8%) were included in the analysis. The key finding revealed that the greater the increase in cardiopulmonary fitness (i.e., longer distance walked in the six-minute walk test, 6MWT), the better the improvement in depression score among patients who underwent bariatric surgery. In particular, increments of 10 m in the 6MWT lead to the improvement of 0.5 points on the depression subscale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire. As the main implication, these results suggest that patients should participate in exercise training programs to increase their fitness status for optimal physical and mental outcomes of bariatric surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the effects of stay-at-home orders and social distancing during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak on mental health and to compare these outcomes between individuals with normal weight and overweight. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 1857 Brazilian adults, who were invited through social media to answer an online questionnaire from 5 May 2020 to 17 May 2020. The instrument included questions related to health behaviour, mental health (anxiety, depression, self-esteem, sadness and stress) and overall health. Overweight was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 Kg/m2 . Multiple logistic regression was conducted to identify whether overweight is associated with mental health variables. RESULTS Women reported increased anxiety (36.5% vs 22.2%, P < .01), depression (16.2% vs 8.8%, P < .01), low self-esteem (19.8% vs 10.6%, P < .01), sadness (17.7% vs 10.2%, P < .01), and stress (29.5% vs 19.3%, P < .01) relative to men. Women with overweight are more likely to report higher feeling of anxiety (OR 1.62, CI 95% 1.22-2.14), depression (OR 1.79, CI 95% 1.25-2.55), low self-esteem (OR 1.82, CI95% 1.28-2.58) and sadness (OR 1.51, CI 95% 1.08-2.10), adjusted for age, social isolation days, educational level, chronic diseases, smoke, alcohol intake and physical activity. CONCLUSION Women, specially those with overweight are more vulnerable to the deleterious effects of stay-at-home orders on mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Bariatric Interprofessional Psychosocial Assessment of Suitability Scale predicts binge eating, quality of life and weight regain following bariatric surgery. Clin Obes 2021; 11:e12421.

Abstract
Presurgical psychosocial evaluations are an important component of bariatric care; yet, bariatric programs vary widely in their assessment and interpretation of psychosocial risk. There is a need for validated clinical tools that help to standardize and streamline the assessment of variables relevant to surgical outcomes. The present study contributes to the validation of the Bariatric Interprofessional Psychosocial Assessment of Suitability Scale (BIPASS), a novel presurgical psychosocial evaluation tool, by: (a) examining the psychometric properties and optimal cutoff score, and; (b) examining the ability of the BIPASS tool to predict outcomes 1 and 2 years postsurgery, including weight regain, quality of life, psychiatric symptoms and adherence to postsurgical follow-up appointments. The BIPASS was applied retrospectively to the charts of 179 consecutively referred patients to a metropolitan bariatric surgery programme. Internal consistency for the BIPASS was acceptable, and interrater reliability was excellent. Higher BIPASS scores predicted higher binge eating symptomatology and lower mental health-related quality of life at 1 year postsurgery, and weight regain at 2 years (all P < .01). The BIPASS did not predict adherence to postsurgical follow-up appointments. Findings suggest that the BIPASS can be used to identify patients at increased risk of disordered eating, poor quality of life and weight regain early in the postsurgical course, thereby facilitating patient education and appropriate interventions.

Abstract
This review, focused on food addiction (FA), considers opinions from specialists with different expertise in addiction medicine, nutrition, health psychology, and behavioral neurosciences. The concept of FA is a recurring issue in the clinical description of abnormal eating. Even though some tools have been developed to diagnose FA, such as the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) questionnaire, the FA concept is not recognized as an eating disorder (ED) so far and is even not mentioned in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manuel of Mental Disorders version 5 (DSM-5) or the International Classification of Disease (ICD-11). Its triggering mechanisms and relationships with other substance use disorders (SUD) need to be further explored. Food addiction (FA) is frequent in the overweight or obese population, but it remains unclear whether it could articulate with obesity-related comorbidities. As there is currently no validated therapy against FA in obese patients, FA is often underdiagnosed and untreated, so that FA may partly explain failure of obesity treatment, addiction transfer, and weight regain after obesity surgery. Future studies should assess whether a dedicated management of FA is associated with better outcomes, especially after obesity surgery. For prevention and treatment purposes, it is necessary to promote a comprehensive psychological approach to FA. Understanding the developmental process of FA and identifying precociously some high-risk profiles can be achieved via the exploration of the environmental, emotional, and cognitive components of eating, as well as their relationships with emotion management, some personality traits, and internalized weight stigma. Under the light of behavioral neurosciences and neuroimaging, FA reveals a specific brain phenotype that is characterized by anomalies in the reward and inhibitory control processes. These anomalies are likely to disrupt the emotional, cognitive, and attentional spheres, but further research is needed to disentangle their complex relationship and overlap with obesity and other forms of SUD. Prevention, diagnosis, and treatment must rely on a multidisciplinary coherence to adapt existing strategies to FA management and to provide social and emotional support to these patients suffering from highly stigmatized medical conditions, namely overweight and addiction. Multi-level interventions could combine motivational interviews, cognitive behavioral therapies, and self-help groups, while benefiting from modern exploratory and interventional tools to target specific neurocognitive processes.
