The present study hypothesized that significant weight loss is associated with a reduction in the inflammatory markers, leading to diminished cardiovascular risks in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LGS). We found a decrease in MHR at postoperative 6 months from baseline in patients undergoing LSG. The decrease in MHR was more remarkable with increasing percentage of EWL, but no relationship between the %EWL and MHR.
The present study aims to evaluate the relationship between MHR, metabolic parameters and the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) in participants undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This prospective cohort study will evaluate obese participants undergoing LSG. Demographic data of the participants and blood glucose level, monocyte count and lipid parameters baseline and at 6 months after surgery will record. The MHR baseline and at 6 months after surgery and the %EWL at 6 months after surgery will calculate. The participants will be divide into two groups as participants with %EWL of \<50 and patients with a %EWL of ≥50. The parameters will compare between the two groups.
