Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To identify patient behaviors and characteristics related to weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB). BACKGROUND: There is considerable variation in the magnitude of weight regain after RYGB, highlighting the importance of patient-level factors. METHODS: A prospective cohort study of adults who underwent bariatric surgery in 6 US cities between 2006 and 2009 included presurgery, and 6-month and annual assessments for up to 7 years. Of 1573 eligible participants, 1278 (81%) with adequate follow-up were included (80% female, median age 46 years, median body mass index 46 kg/m). Percentage of maximum weight lost was calculated each year after weight nadir. RESULTS: Weight was measured a median of 8 (25th-75th percentile, 7-8) times over a median of 6.6 (25th-75th percentile, 5.9-7.0) years. β coefficients, that is, the mean weight regain, compared with the reference, and 95% confidence interval, are reported. Postsurgery behaviors independently associated with weight regain were: sedentary time [2.9% (1.2-4.7), for highest vs lowest quartile], eating fast food [0.5% (0.2-0.7) per meal/wk], eating when feeling full [2.9% (1.2-4.5)], eating continuously [1.6% (0.1-3.1)], binge eating and loss-of-control eating [8.0% (5.1-11.0) for binge eating; 1.6 (-0.1 to 3.3) for loss of control, vs neither], and weighing oneself

  • Weight regain after bariatric surgery is associated with problematic eating behaviors that have either recurred after a period of improvement or are new-onset behaviors.

    From Behavioral Interventions to Attenuate Driven Overeating and Weight Regain After Bariatric Surgery (2022) · cites this paper as [9]

    The Results (Post-surgery behaviors; page unavailable) associate binge eating, loss-of-control eating, eating when full, and continuous eating with greater weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The passages do not establish whether these behaviors recurred after improvement or first arose after surgery, and the study is specific to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass rather than bariatric surgery generally.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
