Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: By studying cardiometabolic risk factors in children born after maternal biliopancreatic diversion bariatric surgery (AMS) compared with those in children born before maternal surgery (BMS), we tested the hypothesis that significant maternal weight loss may modify obesity-related factors transmitted via the intrauterine environment. DESIGN: Anthropometry and fasting blood levels were studied in 49 mothers who had lost 36 +/- 1.8% body weight sustained for 12 +/- 0.8 yr and their 111 children (54 BMS and 57 AMS) aged 2.5-26 yr. RESULTS: AMS children had lower birth weight (2.9 +/- 0.1 AMS vs. 3.3 +/- 0.1 kg BMS, P = 0.003) associated with a reduced prevalence of macrosomia (1.8 AMS vs. 14.8% BMS, P = 0.03) with no difference in underweight. At the time of follow-up, AMS children exhibited 3-fold lower prevalence of severe obesity (11 vs. 35%, P = 0.004), greater insulin sensitivity (homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index 3.4 +/- 0.3 vs. 4.8 +/- 0.5, P = 0.02), improved lipid profile (cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol 2.96 +/- 0.11 vs 3.40 +/- 0.18, P = 0.03; high-density lipoprotein cholesterol 1.50 +/- 0.05 vs. 1.35 +/- 0.05 mmol/liter, P = 0.04), lower C-reactive protein (0.88 +/- 0.17 vs. 2.00 +/- 0.34 microg/ml, P = 0.004), and leptin (11.5 +/- 1.5 vs.19.7 +/- 2.5 ng/ml, P = 0.005) and increased ghrelin (1.28 +/- 0.06 vs.1.03 +/- 0.06 ng/ml, P = 0.005) than BMS offspring (AMS vs. BMS, respectively, for all). CONCLUSIONS: This unique study of children aged 2.5-26 yr born before and after maternal antiobesity surgery demonstrated improvements in cardiometabolic markers sustained into adolescence, attributable to an improved intrauterine environment.

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.
