About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Bariatric Surgery Patients Before and After Sleeve Gastrectomy in Terms of Protein-energy and Food Groups Consumption by Three Factors Eating Scale and Healthy Eating Index

Background/purpose: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has been defined as an innovative surgical method for the treatment of obesity and is progressively applied worldwide. However, data on result of sleeve gastrectomy regarding energy-protein status, nutrient deficiencies and body composition are limited. The purpose of this study is to search nutritional status, body composition and biochemical parameters following LSG.

Methods: Obese subjects (N:55) scheduled for sleeve gastrectomy were included. Macro-micronutrient intake analysis, biochemical blood parameters, and anthropometric measures were performed before and 1, 3 and 6 months after LSG.

Background/purpose: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has been defined as an innovative surgical method for the treatment of obesity and is progressively applied worldwide. Nutritional deficiencies are identified as the possible complications of bariatric surgery. However, data on result of sleeve gastrectomy regarding energy-protein status, nutrient deficiencies and body composition are limited. The purpose of this study is to search nutritional status, body composition and biochemical parameters following LSG.

Methods: Obese subjects (N:55) scheduled for sleeve gastrectomy were included in this study. Preoperative and postoperative (1, 3 and 6th months) protein-energy and other nutrient consumptions, eating habits, food consumption diversity were evaluated with food frequency questionnaire, 3-days food diary record, three-factor eating scale and healthy eating index. Also in the pre- and postoperative period; anthropometric (weight, height, waist, hip, fat free mass) values measured and biochemical blood parameters were collected.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparing the 3-day food diaries (1 weekend day and 2 weekdays) taken during each intervention (pre-post operative 1,3,6 months)

    Daily nutrient intake was calculated by using computer software (Stuttgart, Germany; Turkish version: BeBiS, Vers. 9)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Three Factor Eating Questionnaire Revised-21 (TFEQ-Tr21) scale

    Dietary Behavior: A modification of the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ-TR21) was used to assess cognitive restraint of eating, disinhibition, and hunger.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Healthy Eating Index (HEI-2010)

    Diet Quality: was assessed using the HEI-2010, a measure of diet quality that assesses how well dietary intake aligns with key recommendations.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Comparing the waist circumference (cm) of all interventions

    after the pre and post operative intervention waist circumferences (midway between the rib cage and the iliac crest) were measured using a flexible tape.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Comparing the body mass index (BMI) of all interventions

    BMI was calculated (weight/height squared; in kilograms per square meter)

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Comparing the body fat percentage (%) of all interventions

    the percentage of body fat and fat free mass (FFM) was measured by Tanita Segmental Body Composition Analyzer MC-780MA-N.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Comparing the fasting blood glucose levels of all interventions

    Concentration of fasting blood glucose levels baseline and changes after 1,3 and 6 months after surgery were compared. Blood samples were obtained from medical files before surgery and after 1,3,6 months of surgery period, and sera were stored at -30∘ C, until analytical measurements were performed.

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Comparing the serum lipid levels of all interventions

    Differences in concentration of serum lipid levels of participants in baseline period and after post-operation were measured.

    Blood samples were obtained from medical files at baseline period (pre-operation) and after each intervention period (post-operation 1.3.6 months), and sera were stored at -30∘ C, until analytical measurements were performed. The levels of serum lipids: Triglycerides (mg/dL), Total cholesterol (mg/dL), and HDL cholesterol (mg/dL) were determined using a Dimension Xpand Plus integrated clinical chemistry autoanalyzer (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, USA).

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Comparing the serum B12 levels of all interventions

    baseline, 1,3,6, months after surgery B12 blood measurements taken from patients medical files.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obesity and Bariatric Surgery Candidate, run by Eastern Mediterranean University at 1 site in Cyprus.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Cyprus. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparing the 3-day food diaries (1 weekend day and 2 weekdays) taken during each intervention (pre-post operative 1,3,6 months) (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Jan 2023.
