Renal Function in Type 2 Diabetes Following Gastric Bypass.
Deutsches Arzteblatt international
Dec 9, 2016
BACKGROUND: Metabolic surgery for obese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) yields short- and long-term remission rates of 60-90%. Its effects on diabetesassociated complications such as neuropathy and nephropathy have not been well studied to date. ...
Evidence for Alteration in Serum Concentrations of Leptin in Infertile Men Categorized Based on BMI.
Clinical laboratory
Dec 1, 2016
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to compare serum and seminal level of leptin in the context of infertility in men according to BMI. We also investigated the possible correlation of circulating level of leptin with fertility indices.

May 1, 2016
PURPOSE: Walking for health is recommended by health agencies, partly based on epidemiological studies of self-reported behaviors. Accelerometers are now replacing survey data, but it is not clear that intensity-based cut points reflect the behaviors...
Assessing the association between 25-OH vitamin D levels and ROMA score in a population of obese women.
Journal of biological regulators and homeostatic agents
Jan 1, 2016
The Risk of Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA) combines the diagnostic power of the CA125 and HE4 markers with menopausal status to predict the risk for developing epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the association betw...
Robotic Hysterectomy for Endometrial Cancer in Obese Patients With Comorbidities: Evaluating Postoperative Complications.
International journal of gynecological cancer : official journal of the International Gynecological Cancer Society
Sep 1, 2015
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to determine (1) if there is a relationship between increasing body mass index (BMI) and postoperative complications in patients undergoing robotic hysterectomy for endometrial cancer and (2) if there are ad...
Robot-assisted gastrectomy for early gastric cancer: is it beneficial in viscerally obese patients compared to laparoscopic gastrectomy?
World journal of surgery
Jul 1, 2015
BACKGROUND: The adoption of robotic systems for gastric cancer surgery has been proven feasible and safe; however, a benefit over the laparoscopic approach has not yet been well-documented. We aimed to investigate the surgical outcomes of robotic ver...
