“…We think that the wholesome results of sleeve gastrectomy can obtain considerable weight loss, improvement in self-esteem, decrease in anxiety, amelioration in sexual functions and general quality of life [48]. Similarly, this supports the finding in that bariatric surgery also has a positive impact on the professional sphere, providing the opportunity for unemployed patients to return to work [49].…”

Objective To determine the impact of sleeve gastrectomy in patients suffering from depression compared with those who are not in a depressive state. Introduction Obesity is considered a global epidemic. Often patients with obesity suffer from depressive state. Depressive disorders may be both a cause and a consequence of obesity. Material and methods The study includes 300 consecutives patients that underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Out of the 300 patients, 253 (84.33%) of them completed the follow up for three years. Results Out of the 300-patients, with the average age of 41.65±11.05 years old, the ratio of males to females was 1:2. The average baseline BMI was 42.02 kg/m2. A total of 105 (35.33%) of the patients suffer from depression, which was more common in male (43%) than in female (31.5%), with statistically significant difference (p = .05). Comparing the weight loss after surgery in both groups, the mean weight loss in the depression-group was 12.0 ΔBMI and in the non-depression group was 13.03 ΔBMI, (p< .001). After three years, 94 (88.68%) patients of the depression group responded as they were optimistic and satisfied with the results of the operation, with positive changes in their lives, 8 (7.55%) did not experience change and 4 (3.77%) expressed to have worsened their depressive state. Conclusion Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is successful and leads to weight loss even in subjects who are affected by depression syndrome.

“…Approximately 30-40% of candidates report unemployment at the time of their initial evaluation; up to 40% report public health insurance. 17 At least eight studies have investigated rates of psychopathology in candidates for surgery using structured diagnostic interviews. 15,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Taken together, these studies are indicative of increased psychiatric vulnerability among persons who present for bariatric surgery.…”

“…As shown in Table 2, six studies noted employment status pre-surgery and five studies noted this post-surgery. From these six studies, five studies based their classification of employment status when describing weight loss outcomes, on the presurgical assessment [26][27][28][29][30]. In the other three included studies is it unknown whether the employment status used in the description of weight loss outcomes is assessed prior or after to the assessment of weight loss [31][32][33].…”

“…In the other three included studies is it unknown whether the employment status used in the description of weight loss outcomes is assessed prior or after to the assessment of weight loss [31][32][33]. Four studies used self-report questionnaires for the evaluation of employment status [26,27,29,33], while patient files were also commonly used [26,28,29]. Three studies described the rate of retired and/or disabled patients separately [26,28,29].…”

“…Results for risk of bias were retrieved using the QUIPS tool as shown in Table 3. Overall, four studies were judged as "moderate" risk of bias [26,28,29,33] and four studies were judged as "low" risk of bias [27,[30][31][32]. Due to a lost to follow-up of 39% after one year [28] and 50% after two years [29], two studies were judged as having a "moderate" risk of attrition bias.…”

Place Work on a Scale: What Do We Know About the Association Between Employment Status and Weight Loss Outcomes After Bariatric Surgery?

Despite the initial successful weight loss after bariatric surgery, a significant amount of patients experience weight loss failure and weight regain. Several factors are known to contribute to this, though the impact of employment status is unknown. The objective of this systematic review was to examine the impact of employment status on post-surgical weight loss outcomes. Eight studies were included with a follow-up ranging between 2 and 10 years. Employed patients seemed to present more weight loss (9.0–11.0% EWL, 1.3–1.6% BMI loss) compared to unemployed patients, but none of these numbers were statistically significant. Moreover, there were contrasting findings in terms of weight regain. This review may highlight the importance of working status after bariatric surgery and warrants further investigation on this topic. Graphical abstract
