“…The baseline parameters of our sample did not differ between groups, and these patients have similar values to other studies regarding the fat mass index and the fat-free mass index. One study from Molero et al observed a decrease in the skeletal muscle mass index in patients prior to bariatric surgery with a mean value of 9.5 (1.5) kg/m 2 , as we have seen in our study [ 22 ]. This low muscle mass can predict a higher loss of muscle in these patients related to the type of surgery, as well as the lifestyle of patients.…”

“…Bariatric surgery can lose weight, improve metabolic outcomes, and reduce mortality, but its safety and efficacy in SO remain unknown. Some recent studies found that bariatric surgery may exacerbate weight loss-induced sarcopenia [ 40 , 41 ]. Therefore, well-designed studies are needed before implementing bariatric surgery in SO patients.…”

“…Sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery are known to influence skeletal muscle mass ( Levitt et al, 2010 ; Moize et al, 2013 ), and low skeletal muscle mass has been observed in >25 % of cases after surgery, resulting in an association with the risk of developing sarcopenia ( Molero et al, 2022 ). In contrast, although adults with obesity have higher muscle volume than those with normal weight, they have poorer muscle quality.…”
