Summary

Introduction: According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009-2010, 78 million American adults are obese. Bariatric surgery can provide for a sustained long-term weight loss and the metabolic change caused by the surgery seems to be the main cause of this loss. Cross-sectional, prospective and experimental studies, carried out during the post-operative period of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass surgery (RYGBP) have shown an increase of over 200% in energy expenditure after meals Diet-induced Thermogenesis (DIT), a specific component of energy expenditure) when compared with obese patients. However, despite this metabolic improvement, 20-50% of the patients can suffer weight regain about 2 years after surgery. So one question whether such metabolic benefits remain active following post-operative weight regain, or if the disappearance or decrease of these metabolic benefits may be seen as causes of this weight regain.

Objective:To evaluate whether there are DIT differences between patients who maintained weight loss and those who regained weight in the late postoperative (postop) period of RYGBP and those who continue with preoperative (preop) obesity.

Conditions

  • Obesity
  • Bariatric Surgery Candidate
  • Protein-energy; Imbalance

Interventions

OTHER

patients eat a mixed solid meal

The three groups were given an indirect calorimetry examination to measure their resting metabolic rate (RMR), respiratory exchange rate (RER) and DIT. The patients collected urine during 24 hours for urinary nitrogen analysis. Immediately after the RMR measurement, patients received a solid mixed meal (270 kcal, with 62% carbohydrate, 12% protein and 26% lipid). Ten minutes after beginning this food intake, postprandial (PP) energy expenditure measurements were taken in the following sequences (in minutes): 10-20, 20-30, 30-40, 60-70, 70-80, 80-90, 110-120, 120- 130, 130-140, 160-170 and 170-180.The DIT was calculated for each time interval.
