About this study

Official title: Effects of Bariatric Surgery on obesity-and Diabetes-associated Abnormalities of Hemostasis, Inflammation and Vascular Function.

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to examine circulating biomarkers before and after weight loss in patients with obesity, with or without concomitant diabetes, undergoing bariatric surgery. The main questions that are being addressed are:

  • Do biomarkers of hemostasis, including coagulation, fibrinolysis, and platelet function improve following surgery and if so, is that improvement more pronounced in patients with diabetes?
  • Do biomarkers of endothelial function and other aspects of vascular function improve following surgery and if so, is that improvement more pronounced in patients with diabetes?
  • Do biomarkers of inflammation, including markers of adipocyte function, improve following surgery and if so, is that improvement more pronounced in patients with diabetes?
  • The possible role of circulating extracellular vesicles reflecting biological functions above will also be investigated (optional) Participants will be asked to attend in total five study visits before and after surgery including a final visit at two years post-surgery. Comparisons will be performed within- as well as between groups.
Read the detailed description

In this single centre, prospective, parallel group, cohort study, patients meeting the eligibility criteria are recruited at the department of surgery at Ersta hospital, Stockholm, Sweden. Patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are matched for age and sex with the group of patients with obesity without T2D. During the study the participants attend five study visits: at baseline, at the morning of surgery (after two weeks of low calory diet), 6 weeks, 1 year and 2 years after surgery. At each study visit a nurse records blood pressure, weight, height, and waist/hip circumferences. In addition, the nurse recalls the medical history and any medication use including contraceptive hormones and analgesics. Fat mass is determined using bioelectric impedance. Venous blood samples are collected with the patients in the supine position after overnight fasting and at least 20 minutes of rest. For later analyses, 25 mL of blood is collected in citrate tubes and centrifuged for 20 min at 2000 x g in room temperature. Plasma aliquots are subsequently stored at minus 80 degrees Celsius. Blood test regarding values at baseline (not the primary outcome variables) will be analysed at the local hospital laboratory. Examples of those basic variables are concentrations of glucose, insulin, blood cell counts and lipids.

What is being measured

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

  1. Blood tests for endothelial function comparing two years after surgery with baseline (below referred to as "changes in").

    Outcome measure:

    • Change in Hyaluronan (ng/ml)
    • Change in Syndacan-1 (ng/ml)
    • Change in E-selectin (ng/ml)
    • Change in Thrombomodulin (pg/ml)
    • Change in von Willebrand factor (%)

    Measured: before surgery - 2 years after surgery

  2. Blood tests for fibrinolysis comparing two years after surgery with baseline (below referred to as "changes in").

    Outcome measure:

    • Change in PAI-1 activity (IU/ml)
    • Change in Fibrinogen (pg/ml)
    • Change in tPA activity (IU/ml)
    • Change in PAP complex (ng/ml)
    • Change in turbidimetric values - LagC (s)
    • Change in turbidimetric values - LagL (s)
    • Change in turbidimetric values - MaxAbsC (au)
    • Change in turbidimetric values - MaxAbsL (au
    • Change in turbidimetric values - Lys50MA (s)
    • Change in turbidimetric values - CRC (au/s)
    • Change in turbidimetric values - CRL (au/s)

    Measured: before surgery - 2 years after surgery

  3. Blood tests for inflammation comparing two years after surgery with baseline (below referred to as "changes in").

    Outcome measure:

    • Change in high sensitivity CRP (microg/ml)
    • Change in soluble IL6 receptor (ng/mL)
    • Change in IL6 (pg/mL)
    • Change in soluble gp130 (ng/mL)
    • Change in TNFalfa (pg/ml)

    Measured: before surgery - 2 years after surgery

  4. Blood tests for extracellular vesicles comparing two years after surgery with baseline (below referred to as "changes in").

    Exploratory analyses of extracellular vesicles (EV) in plasma using flow cytometry. EV exposing antigens of cell specific origin and/or biologically active molecules will be assessed. Outcome measure: Change in number of EVs (number of EV/micoL)

    Measured: before surgery - 2 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laparoscopic Roux-en-y gastric bypass in people with Surgery and Obesity Associated Disorder, run by Ersta Diakoni.

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 3 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 6 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Blood tests for endothelial function comparing two years after surgery with baseline (below referred to as "changes in"). (time frame: before surgery - 2 years after surgery). The study lists 4 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 6 Oct 2023.
