  • Ages 16 to 65 years

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: This retrospective monocentric study included 260 obese patients who underwent LSG between January 2015 and July 2022 at the Department of Gastric Surgery, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital. All patients underwent a thorough multidisciplinary evaluation (an endocrinologist, dietician, and bariatric surgeon), and a psychiatric evaluation was obtained if considered necessary. All patients completed routine preoperative investigations, including upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, chest radiography, abdominal computed tomography (CT), abdominal ultrasound examination, and nutritional assessment. Preoperative QOL was measured using the Moorhead-Ardelt questionnaire at the same visit. All patients in this study were operated on by the same surgical team of surgeons with more than 60 LSG experiences.Postoperative treatment was performed based on the patient's condition.

Who may be able to join

  • Obese patients who met the indications for LSG and were followed up regularly as planned after surgery.

Who cannot join

  • incomplete critical clinical data;
  • incomplete imaging data;
  • insufficient follow-up data.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of sarcopenic obesity (SO) on weight loss outcomes and improvement of quality of life after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Read the detailed description

Sarcopenic obesity is a state in which a lack of muscle mass and strength coexists with an increase in fat mass, and it may affect the health outcome of people with obesity after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).No studies have reported differences in weight loss outcomes between patients with SO and those with non-sarcopenic obesity (NSO) after LSG. Therefore, this study aimed to systematically evaluate the differences in weight loss and quality of life (QOL) evaluation between patients with SO and NSO after LSG and provide high-level evidence-based medical evidence for the impact of SO on weight loss in the obese population and refinement of follow-up strategies.

What is being measured

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

  1. %EWL

    Percentage excess weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 6-month weight)/(initial weight - ideal weight) × 100%.

    Measured: 6 month after surgery

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. %EWL

    Percentage excess weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 1-month weight)/(initial weight - ideal weight) × 100%.

    Measured: 1 month after surgery

  2. %EWL

    Percentage excess weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 3-month weight)/(initial weight - ideal weight) × 100%.

    Measured: 3 month after surgery

  3. %EWL

    Percentage excess weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 9-month weight)/(initial weight - ideal weight) × 100%.

    Measured: 9 month after surgery

  4. %EWL

    Percentage excess weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 12-month weight)/(initial weight - ideal weight) × 100%.

    Measured: 12 month after surgery

  5. %TWL

    Percentage total weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 6-month weight)/(initial weight) × 100%

    Measured: 6 month after surgery

  6. %TWL

    Percentage total weight loss is calculated as (initial weight - 12-month weight)/(initial weight) × 100%

    Measured: 12 month after surgery

  7. EBMI

    Excess BMI is calculated as(follow-up BMI - ideal BMI)

    Measured: 6 month after surgery

  8. %WL

    Percentage weight loss is calculated as (follow-up weight/initial weight) × 100%

    Measured: 6 month after surgery

  9. MA II score

    Moorhead-Ardelt QOL questionnaire is a six-item self-report questionnaire that assesses the patient's subjective impression of QOL,The total score ranges from -3 to +3 and defines five outcome groups: very poor, poor, fair, good, and very good. Good and very good outcomes were considered satisfactory.

    Measured: 6 month after surgery

  10. BAROS score

    The Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System(BAROS)combines the Moorhead-Ardelt QOL questionnaire with other data relevant to bariatric surgery, including the %EWL, improvement in comorbid conditions, and complications.A BAROS score ≤1 was considered a failure; >1-3, fair; >3-5, good; >5-7, very good; and >7, excellent.

    Measured: 6 month after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sarcopenic Obesity and Body Composition, run by Fujian Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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 24 Apr 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 China. 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?

%EWL (time frame: 6 month after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05826210, which also lists 16 linked publications.

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 24 Apr 2023.
