Comprehensive studies of adolescent bariatric surgery outcomes are in their infancy and are critically needed. The present study examined the rate of change in the body mass index (BMI), health-related quality of life (HRQOL), depressive symptoms, and self-concept in adolescents undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) during the first 24 postoperative months using a prospective longitudinal design at a pediatric medical center.
A total of 16 adolescents (mean age 16.2 yr; 62.5% female, mean BMI 59.9 kg/m2; 97% of eligible, consecutive patients) completed the Impact of Weight on Quality of Life-Kids, Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory, Self-Perception Profile for Adolescents, and height and weight measurements at baseline and 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after RYGB. A total of 75% participated at all follow-up points.
Before RYGB, global psychosocial impairments were documented. Hierarchical linear modeling was used to examine the growth trajectories. Several quadratic (nonlinear) trends were revealed. A substantial reduction in weight and depressive symptoms, as well as improved HRQOL and self-concept were identified across the first postoperative year, followed by decelerations in year 2, including weight regain (P < .0001) and slight increases in depressive symptoms (P = .004) and decreases in HRQOL (Social, P = .002; Body Esteem, P = .0007; Physical Comfort, P < .0001; and Total, P < .0001), and self-concept (Social, P = .02; Appearance, P = .002; and Close Friendship, P = .008).
During the first 24 months after RYGB, preliminary evidence suggests adolescents experience significant weight loss as well as psychosocial and HRQOL improvements. A deceleration in these gains occurred in the second postoperative year. Longer term follow-up with larger samples is critical to determine the weight and psychosocial trajectories, and what role psychosocial status plays in adolescents' weight change and maintenance.
青少年减重手术结局的综合研究尚处于起步阶段,迫切需要开展此类研究。本研究采用前瞻性纵向设计,在一家儿科医学中心,对 16 名青少年(平均年龄 16.2 岁;62.5%为女性,平均 BMI 为 59.9kg/m2;为符合条件的连续患者的 97%)在 Roux-en-Y 胃旁路术(RYGB)后的前 24 个月内的体重指数(BMI)、健康相关生活质量(HRQOL)、抑郁症状和自我概念的变化率进行了研究。所有患者在基线以及 RYGB 后 6、12、18 和 24 个月时完成了生活质量影响-儿童(Impact of Weight on Quality of Life-Kids)、儿科生活质量量表(Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory)、贝克抑郁量表(Beck Depression Inventory)、青少年自我知觉量表(Self-Perception Profile for Adolescents)和身高体重测量。共有 75%的患者完成了所有随访。
RYGB 前,记录了全球心理社会障碍。采用分层线性模型来检验生长轨迹。揭示了几个二次(非线性)趋势。在术后第一年,体重和抑郁症状明显减轻,HRQOL 和自我概念得到改善,随后在第二年减缓,包括体重反弹(P<0.0001)和抑郁症状略有增加(P=0.004),以及 HRQOL 降低(社会,P=0.002;身体自尊,P=0.0007;身体舒适,P<0.0001;以及总体,P<0.0001),以及自我概念(社会,P=0.02;外貌,P=0.002;亲密友谊,P=0.008)。
在 RYGB 后的前 24 个月,初步证据表明青少年经历了显著的体重减轻以及心理社会和 HRQOL 的改善。在术后第二年,这些收益的速度减缓。需要进行更长时间的随访并扩大样本量,以确定青少年的体重和心理社会轨迹,以及心理社会状况在青少年体重变化和维持中的作用。
