Metabolic Outcomes in Bariatric/Metabolic Surgery Individuals: Impact of Metabolic Health Definition, Type of Surgery, and Follow-Up Duration-An Observational, Retrospective Study.

For all definitions, and taking as reference the metabolic health phenotype group at baseline, the relative body weight loss at the first follow-up (from 31.30 ± 10.48 to 34.66 ± 8.83%) is significantly higher than at the third (28.98 ± 11.60 to 32.54 ± 9.96%) and fourth follow-ups [26.89 ± 11.74 to 30.32 ± 10.93%; p -values ranging from p < 0.05 to p < 0.001 for MH and p < 0.001 for MUH, the exception for MH according to both our own definition (the same pattern, although the difference did not reach statistical significance) and the Karelis et al.’s definition (a tendency was found at the third follow-up, p = 0.072)].

Regarding C-reactive protein, throughout the study period, a decreasing trend is observed by us in the proportion of MUH individuals with high C-reactive protein values according to Khan et al.’s [ 40 ] and Pluemacher et al.’s definitions.
