Multicenter Study Comparative StudyHow safe is same-day discharge after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy?
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is associated with low morbidity and mortality and a short length of stay. Studies on the safety of same-day discharge after LSG are limited. ⋯ Same-day discharge after LSG is associated with increased complications, readmissions, and reoperations compared with POD1 discharge. Further studies are needed to examine objective criteria for safe same-day discharge after LSG.

Comparative Study Clinical TrialEffect of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass versus laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on fasting gastrointestinal and pancreatic peptide hormones: A prospective nonrandomized trial.
Changes in gastrointestinal and pancreatic hormones may play a role in promoting long-term weight reduction and improved glucose metabolism after sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. However, few studies have examined the metabolic and endocrine effects of these procedures in Mainland China. ⋯ LSG and LRYGB resulted in significant and distinct changes in multiple gastrointestinal and pancreatic peptide hormones that are important regulators of obesity and metabolic health.

Comparative Study Observational StudyImpact of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy on fetal growth and relationship with maternal nutritional status.
There is a lack of evidence on whether sleeve gastrectomy (SG), which induces fewer nutritional deficiencies than Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), also affects fetal growth (FG). ⋯ FG restriction occurs after both SG and RYGB. FG after bariatric surgery is positively associated with protein supply and negatively correlated with maternal iron status.

Multicenter Study Comparative StudySingle-stage conversions from failed gastric band to sleeve gastrectomy versus Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: results from the United Kingdom National Bariatric Surgical Registry.
For patients in whom laparoscopic adjustable gastric band has failed, conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy are both options for further surgical treatment. There are limited data comparing these 2 procedures. The National Bariatric Surgery Registry is a comprehensive United Kingdom-wide database of bariatric procedures, in which preoperative demographic characteristics and clinical outcomes are prospectively recorded. ⋯ Conversion from band to sleeve or bypass give comparable good early excess weight loss; however, conversion to sleeve is associated with a better perioperative safety profile.

Multicenter Study Observational StudyCurrent role of staple line reinforcement in 30-day outcomes of primary laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: an analysis of MBSAQIP data, 2015-2016 PUF.
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become a dominant bariatric procedure. In the past, significant leak rates prompted the search for staple line reinforcement (SLR) techniques. Previous analysis of the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) database for all LSG suggested a detrimental influence of SLR on leak rates and overall morbidity. ⋯ Primary LSG is a safe procedure with low morbidity and mortality rates. SLR is associated with decreased rates of bleeding and reoperations but does not affect leak rates. The selection of SLR technique should be left to the surgeon's discretion with an understanding of the associated risks, benefits, and costs.
