Conditions
Obesity
Interventions
Procedure: Ileal Interposition
Procedure: Traditional surgical technique
Registration Number
NCT05931939
Lead Sponsor
Rio de Janeiro State University
Brief Summary

The investigators will study the Ileal interposition to the treatment of weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, assessing weight loss, body composition, quality of life, metabolic biomarkers, inflammatory biomarkers, and incretin hormones

Detailed Description

This prospective, controlled, randomized intervention study will investigate the Ileal interposition to the treatment of weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, assessing weight loss, body composition, health-related quality of life, metabolic biomarkers, inflammatory biomarkers, and incretin hormones. The participants will also be assessed for alcohol abuse, depressive symptoms, level of physical activity, eating disorder symptoms, and dumping syndrome.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes of weight loss of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as measured by weight in kilogramsChange from baseline and after 6 months post-surgery

Weight loss will be obtained as the difference between preoperative weight and minimum postoperative weight in kilograms

Changes of Health-related quality of life of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as reported by 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey questionnaireChange from Baseline and after 6 months post-surgery

Health-related quality of life will be assessed using the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey questionnaire

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in alcohol abuse of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as reported by Alcohol Use Disorders Identification TestChange from baseline and after 6 and 12 months post-surgery

Alcohol abuse will be assessed using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test

Change of body composition of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as measured by lean and fat mass in kilogramsChange from baseline and after 6 and 12 months post-surgery

Body composition will be assessed through dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)

Change of inflammatory biomarkers and incretin hormones of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as assessed by serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6, ghrelin, and glucagon-like peptide-1.Change from baseline and after 6 months post-surgery

Blood sample collection will include serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6, ghrelin, and glucagon-like peptide-1.

Changes in the eating disorder symptoms of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as reported by the Eating Disorder Examination QuestionnaireChange from baseline and after 6 and 12 months post-surgery

Eating disorder symptoms will be assessed using the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire

Changes in depressive symptoms of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as reported by Beck Depression InventoryChange from baseline and after 6 and 12 months post-surgery

Depressive symptoms will be assessed using the Beck Depression Inventory questionnaire

Changes in the level of physical activity of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as reported by the International Physical Activity QuestionnaireChange from baseline and after 6 and 12 months post-surgery

Levels of physical activity will be assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire

Changes of weight loss of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as measured by weight in kilogramsChange from baseline and after 3, 6, and 12 months post-surgery

Weight loss will be obtained as the difference between preoperative weight and minimum

Change of metabolic profile of participants after Ileal interposition surgery as assessed by serum levels of glucose and insulinChange from baseline and after 6 and 12 months post-surgery

Blood sample collection will include serum levels of glucose and insulin
