Original description
Obese patients exhibit considerable heterogeneity and complex comorbidities, making long-term effective management challenging with single therapies. While bariatric surgery remains the most effective weight-loss intervention, postoperative weight regain and metabolic deterioration require attention. GLP-1 RAs offer distinct advantages for weight and metabolic improvement, and their combined application with surgery may yield synergistic benefits.

The Efficacy and Safety of Bariatric Surgery Combined With GLP-1 Receptor Agonists for Patients With Severe Obesity: A Prospective, Multicenter Cohort Study

Obese patients exhibit considerable heterogeneity and complex comorbidities, making long-term effective management challenging with single therapies. While bariatric surgery remains the most effective weight-loss intervention, postoperative weight regain and metabolic deterioration require attention. GLP-1 RAs offer distinct advantages for weight and metabolic improvement, and their combined application with surgery may yield synergistic benefits. This study investigates the efficacy and safety of bariatric surgery combined with GLP-1 receptor agonist adjuvant therapy for severe obesity.

Inclusion: Primary metabolic surgery candidates: Patients undergoing initial laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG); obesity:BMI ≥35 kg/m²; Metabolic comorbidities: Diagnosis of metabolic syndrome or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) meeting standard criteria; Age range: 18-60 years (inclusive); Informed consent: Willing participation with documented consent.

Exclusion: Recent GLP-1RA use: Treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists within 6 months preoperatively; Prior bariatric surgery: History of any metabolic/bariatric surgical procedure; Non-indicated candidates: Patients not meeting standard bariatric surgery indications; Postoperative complications: Requiring reoperation for severe complications (e.g., hemorrhage, anastomotic leak); Significant comorbidities:; Advanced hepatic/renal dysfunction (Child-Pugh C or eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73m²); Active malignancy (except non-melanoma skin cancers); Autoimmune disorders requiring immunosuppression; Uncontrolled psychiatric conditions (e.g., active psychosis, severe depression).
