“…Besides, it was observed that 43% of the studied patients made use of antihypertensive drugs before the surgery and, 2 years after the procedure, only 17% of those patients continued to use them 14. The use of cardiotonic medications decreased in 54% of patients, and of diuretics in 51% of patients, during this period.…”

“…It is yet to be determined whether the lipid alterations produced by bariatric procedures will reduce long-term CVD mortality. 275 Surgical treatments for adiposopathy RNYGB is the oldest procedure that is known to cause weight loss and metabolic changes by restricting gastric size and rerouting the gut. Gastric bypass involves creation of a small (20-30 mL) stomach pouch located at the distal end of the esophagus, which is sometimes surgically divided from the rest of the stomach.…”

“…An area that requires further study is whether these lipid, glucose, and inflammatory markers continue to show positive changes in the long-term and whether this correlates to reduced CV risk. Donadelli et al 275 looked at lipid alterations at 2 years post-RNYGB and calculated Framingham Risk based on the metabolic parameters present at that time. Forty-two patients were included in the study.…”
