Esteato-hepatite não-alcoólica em pré-operatório de bypass gástrico: ausência de correlação com grau de obesidade

Abstract: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is highly prevalent in morbidly obese patients, but there was no positive correlation between aminotransferases and degree of obesity and liver histopathology. Hypertriglyceridemia and waist-hip ratio were positively correlated with the intensity of disease.

“…It is clear that while weight loss plays an important role in controlling metabolic abnormalities, this effect appears to be more significant over the long term. [158][159][160] Furthermore, there is evidence that excess weight is not the main pathophysiological feature relating to NAFLD. 158 The causes of early improvement of MetS after bariatric surgery are complex and relate to changes on the entero-insular axis mediated by gastrointestinal hormones called incretins.…”

[160][161][162] The anatomical changes caused by the surgical procedures, particularly duodenal exclusion and overflow of nutrients to the distal small bowel, lead to release of incretins, especially glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and gastrointestinal insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP).…”
