Key result
Weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass had no significant impact on long-term lipid profiles and glycemia over 5 years, with no significant differences between groups postoperatively.
Why the study?
Does Roux-en-Y gastric bypass maintain improved glucose and lipid profiles over 5 years despite weight regain?
Cohort (n=323)
Does Roux-en-Y gastric bypass maintain improved glucose and lipid profiles over 5 years despite weight regain?
Weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass does not appear to negatively impact the long-term improvements in lipid and glycemic profiles over 5 years.
RYGB metabolic gains may persist despite weight regain; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective confirmation before guiding practice.

Magno et al. (2018) conducted a cohort in Obesity (n=323). Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) was evaluated on Glucose and lipid profiles. Weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass had no significant impact on long-term lipid profiles and glycemia over 5 years, with no significant differences between groups postoperatively.
