There are limited data regarding the association of cannabis use with outcomes after bariatric surgery. As such, it is challenging to know how to counsel patients using cannabis. The purpose of this study was to examine whether postsurgical cannabis use was associated with psychiatric symptoms and maladaptive eating among individuals up to 4 years ...

Reflux and Barrett's esophagus after sleeve gastrectomy: analysis of a statewide database.
Published in Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
Recent studies have suggested that sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is associated with the development of Barrett esophagus (BE) even in the absence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms. The aim of this study was to assess the rates of upper endoscopy and incidence of new BE diagnoses in patients undergoing SG. This was a claims-data study of ...

Published in Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
Traditional surgical outcomes are measured retrospectively and intermittently, limiting opportunities for early intervention. The objective of this study was to use risk-adjusted cumulative sum (RA-CUSUM) to track perioperative surgical outcomes for laparoscopic gastric bypass. We hypothesized that RA-CUSUM could identify performance variations bet...

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a crucial surgical procedure for patients with obesity. However, epigenetic research in LSG is still in its infancy from the perspective of adipogenesis. This work aims to develop a model to predict 1 year excess weight loss percentage (EWL)% following LSG in Chinese patients with obesity by examining the DN...
Remote patient monitoring to facilitate same-day discharge after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: a pilot evaluation.
Published in Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
Limited hospital inpatient capacity, exacerbated by SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) and associated staffing shortages, has driven interest in converting surgeries historically done as inpatient procedures to same-day surgeries (SDS). Remote patient monitoring (RPM) has the potential to increase safety and confidence in SDS but has had mixed success in a bari...
