Sleeve Gastrectomy Versus Banded Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass for Obesity and Diabetes Mellitus: Psychology and Quality of Life Outcomes at 10 Years
摘要
Obesity impacts physical, physiological and psychological domains of life. The long-term effects of metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) on patient-centred outcomes such as mental health and quality of life (QOL) may enhance the management of obesity and the application of MBS.
MethodsA prospective, blinded, double arm, parallel, randomised trial was carried out at a single bariatric centre in Waitemata, New Zealand. Adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity were randomised 1:1 to undergo laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or silastic ring Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (SR-RYGB). After unblinding at 5 years, patients were followed up at 10 years. This analysis focuses on secondary outcomes: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) scores and RAND-36 QOL scores.
ResultsOf 114 patients randomised, 80 patients (70.2%) completed 10-year follow up (39 SG; 41 SR-RYGB). SR-RYGB was associated with greater weight loss (33.3 kg vs. 25.8 kg, p = 0.031) and trended towards higher diabetes remission (31.7% vs. 23.1%, adjusted OR 2.07, 95% CI 0.70, 6,10, p = 0.186). Mean HADS anxiety score for SG decreased by 1.59 units over 10-years (p = 0.027). Improvements in RAND-36 scores were significantly greater after 10 years for SR-RYGB than SG for physical function (19 vs. 12 points, p = 0.026) and general health (17 vs. 10 points, p = 0.036). Role limitation due to emotional problems worsened significantly by 16 points for the SG group (p = 0.032).
ConclusionSR-RYGB demonstrated superior long-term improvements in physical function and general health QOL domains of RAND-36 compared to SG. Anxiety symptoms may be reduced long-term following SG.
