Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and Plateletcrit (PCT) in young patients with morbid obesity

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE To compare the complete blood counts, namely the plateletcrit (PCT) and Platelet-To-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) of healthy subjects and those with morbid obesity in the young population. METHODS We included 45 patients with morbid obesity (body mass index -BMI - greater than or equal to ...

Correlações entre características da doença hepática gordurosa não-alcoólica e os níveis de adipocinas e citocinas inflamatórias em indivíduos submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica

Arq. gastroenterol; 55 (3), 2018
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the commonest hepatopathy worldwide. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlations between NAFLD histopathological features and the levels of adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, and resistin) and circulating inflammatory markers (interleukin-...

Long term maintenance of glucose and lipid concentrations after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass

Abstract Objective: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) reduces body weight and the comorbidities associated with obesity. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether glucose and lipid profiles were maintained during a 5-year follow-up period after RYGB. Subjects and methods: Anthropometric and laborator...
