ObjectiveTo systematically review the intervention effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on weight loss and blood lipid metabolism in overweight/obese populations. MethodsThe computer conducted searches in the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, and WanFang Data database to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) related to HIIT and weight loss, fat reduction, and blood lipid metabolism in overweight/obese populations. The search was conducted from the inception of the databases to March 31, 2023. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and data extraction. After evaluating the risk of bias of the included studies, a meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. ResultsA total of 19 RCTs, involving 595 overweight/obese participants, were included. The meta-analysis results showed that compared wtih the control group, HIIT interventions effectively reduced body weight (MD=−2.63, 95%CI −4.04 to −1.23, P<0.05), BMI (MD=−1.21, 95%CI −1.95 to −0.48, P<0.05), Fat% (MD=−1.66, 95%CI −2.28 to −1.04, P<0.05), TG (MD=−0.13, 95%CI −0.25 to −0.01, P=0.04), HDL (MD=0.14, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.23, P<0.05), and LDL (MD=−0.26, 95%CI −0.39 to −0.13, P<0.05) levels but did not improve TC (MD=−0.15, 95%CI −0.36 to 0.06, P=0.15) levels. ConclusionHIIT intervention can effectively improve body weight, BMI, Fat%, TG, HDL, and LDL levels in overweight/obese populations, particularly showing a more pronounced improvement in lipid profiles among overweight/obese adolescents, but it does not reduce TC levels. This study demonstrates that HIIT may be an effective strategy to assist in weight loss and prevent cardiovascular diseases in overweight/obese populations, with potential for broader application.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of different ventilation modes on pulmonary complications (PCs) after laparoscopic weight loss surgery in obese patients. MethodsThe obese patients who underwent laparoscopic weight loss surgery in the Xiaolan People’s Hospital of Zhongshan from January 2019 to June 2023 were retrospectively collected, then were assigned into pressure-controlled ventilation-volume guaranteed (PCV-VG) group and volume controlled ventilation (VCV) group according to the different ventilation modes during anesthesia. The clinicopathologic data of the patients between the PCV-VG group and VCV group were compared. The occurrence of postoperative PCs was understood and the risk factors affecting the postoperative PCs for the obese patients underwent laparoscopic weight loss surgery were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. ResultsA total of 294 obese patients who underwent laparoscopic weight loss surgery were enrolled, with 138 males and 156 females; Body mass index (BMI) was 30–55 kg/m2, (42.40±4.87) kg/m2. The postoperative PCs occurred in 63 cases (21.4%). There were 160 cases in the PCV-VG group and 134 cases in the VCV group. The anesthesia time, tidal volume at 5 min after tracheal intubation, peak inspiratory pressure and driving pressure at 5 min after tracheal intubation, 60 min after establishing pneumoperitoneum, and the end of surgery, as well as incidence of postoperative PCs in the PCV-VG group were all less or lower than those in the VCV group (P<0.05). The indicators with statistical significance by univariate analysis in combination with significant clinical indicators were enrolled in the multivariate logistic regression model, such as the smoking history, American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, hypertension, BMI, operation time, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), FEV1/forced vital capacity, and intraoperative ventilation mode. It was found that the factors had no collinearity (tolerance>0.1, and variance inflation factor<10). The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the patients with higher BMI and intraoperative VCV mode increased the probability of postoperative PCs (P<0.05). ConclusionsFrom the preliminary results of this study, for the obese patients underwent laparoscopic weight loss surgery, the choice of ventilation mode is closely related to the risk of developing postoperative PCs. In clinical practice, it is particularly important to pay attention to the risk of postoperative PCs for the patients with higher degree obesity.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass on weight loss, metabolic improvements, and postoperative safety in patients with obesity and its metabolic comorbidities (such as type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia). MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted. The clinical data of patients with obesity [body mass index (BMI) ≥32.5 kg/m² or BMI ≥27.5 kg/m² with metabolic diseases] who underwent SASI bypass in the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School from January 2023 to December 2023. Weight loss outcomes, including the percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), and percentage of excess BMI loss (%EBMIL), were recorded at 6 and 12 months postoperatively. Metabolic disease remission and complications at 12 months postoperatively were also documented. ResultsA total of 82 patients were included in the study. At 12 months postoperatively, the reductions in %TWL, %EWL, and %EBMIL were significantly greater than those observed at 6 months postoperatively [%TWL: (27.1±4.6)% vs. (23.6±3.8)%, t=2.379, P=0.026; %EWL: (72.1±5.8)% vs. (56.6±7.3)%, t=2.593, P<0.001; %EBMIL: (71.6±6.7)% vs. (58.3±4.9)%, t=2.607, P<0.001], remission was observed in 40 out of 48 patients (83.3%) with comorbid hypertension, 49 out of 51 patients (96.1%) with comorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus, and all patients with comorbid hyperlipidemia (33 cases) and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (29 cases) achieved complete remission. Within 12 months after SASI bypass, 3 patients (3.7%) experienced melena, 2 patients (2.4%) developed incomplete intestinal obstruction, and 10 patients (12.1%) showed malnutrition. ConclusionThe findings of this study indicate that SASI bypass demonstrates significant weight loss and metabolic improvement effects in patients with obesity and metabolic diseases, with a controllable safety profile.

The “Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Obesity (2024 Edition)” was formulated by the National Health Commission in cooperation with multidisciplinary experts nationwide, and was formally released on October 17, 2024. As China’s first authoritative guideline for obesity, it comprehensively covers the etiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, classification, staging, and related diseases of obesity. The guideline emphasizes the high risk of obesity-related diseases, and for the first time puts forward a standardized diagnosis and treatment pathway, sorting out various treatment options including lifestyle interventions, pharmacotherapy, metabolic/bariatric procedures, and traditional Chinese medicine treatments. At the same time, the guideline advocates the multi-disciplinary treatment model, which integrates expertise and methodologies from various disciplines to develop personalized treatments for patients. We interpreted and discussed the diagnostic assessment and multimodal management of obesity, so as to enhance readers’ understanding of the guideline and promote the standardization of evidence-based practices in obesity care.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the impact of different electronic health technologies on weight loss outcomes in overweight and simple obesity populations. MethodsThe Cochrane Library, Embase, PubMed and WOS databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) related to the objectives from inception to May 2024. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 18 software. ResultsA total of 9 RCTs involving 2 416 patients with overweight or simple obesity were included. The meta-analysis results showed that body weight (MD=−0.81, 95%CI −1.1 to −0.52, P<0.001), BMI (MD=−0.63, 95%CI −0.89 to −0.37, P<0.001), waist circumference (MD=−1.06, 95%CI −1.70 to −0.42, P<0.001) and energy intake (SMD=−0.44, 95%CI −0.75 to −0.13, P=0.005) in the e-health technology group were significantly improved compared with the control group. But there was no statistically significant difference in physical activity between two groups. ConclusionThe available evidence suggests that e-health technology is an effective tool for weight loss. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
With the swift evolution of bariatric and metabolic surgery, additional procedures building upon sleeve gastrectomy have consistently surfaced. Recent studies suggest that sleeve gastrectomy with jejunojejunal bypass (SG-JJB) yields superior short-term weight reduction outcomes compared to sleeve gastrectomy alone, with weight loss and glycemic control effects akin to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and without significant complications. As a result, SG-JJB is regarded as a safe and efficacious bariatric procedure, noted for its technical simplicity and reversibility, presenting substantial clinical utility. Nonetheless, high-quality, multicenter, large-sample, long-term follow-up randomized controlled trials are essential to further ascertain its long-term efficacy and safety, and to facilitate its standardized implementation. This article seeks to review the advancements in SG-JJB research, evaluate its effectiveness and safety in managing obesity and associated comorbidities, and explore its future developmental trajectory.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the effects of weight-loss interventions on hormone levels and sexual function in patients with obesity. MethodsThis review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and other databases was performed for studies published within the past decade that investigated the effects of bariatric surgery, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and lifestyle interventions on sex hormones and sexual function. ResultsBariatric surgery (e.g., sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass) demonstrated the most pronounced improvements in hormonal balance and sexual function. In males, total testosterone levels doubled postoperatively, with marked increase in erectile function score. In females with polycystic ovary syndrome, androgen levels were reduced by 50%, with significant amelioration in the female sexual function index. GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., semaglutide, liraglutide) partially improved sperm quality and testosterone levels, but were also associated with a higher risk of erectile dysfunction (with a hazard ratio of approximately 4.5). Lifestyle interventions (e.g., low-calorie diet, exercise) could increase sex hormone-binding globulin levels and improve sexual function score, although their efficacy remained inferior to that of surgery. ConclusionsWeight-loss interventions can alleviate hormonal imbalances and sexual dysfunction in obesity, with bariatric surgery demonstrating the most significant effects. Pharmacological and lifestyle interventions have shown variable efficacy. Future research should further investigate mechanisms underlying effects of different weight-loss modalities on sexual health.
