Early identification of individuals at higher risk for obesity is crucial for implementing effective prevention strategies. This study explores the viability of non-dietary factors such as lifestyle, family history, and demographics as predictors of obesity risk. The dataset comprised 1068 males and 1043 females, aged between 14 and 61 years. Only non-dietary factors were used to build the machine learning models, including decision tree, random forest, support vector classification (SVC), k-nearest neighbour (KNN), and Gaussian Naïve Bayes (GNB). Random forest emerged as the optimal model, demonstrating 66.9% test accuracy, 66.4% precision, 66.9% recall, 66.4% F1-score, 94.5% specificity and 92.3% area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC). Variability of the models' performance was also evaluated through bootstrapping. Lifestyle factors, while less impactful than family history and demographics, also contributed to predictive power. This indicates the potential for predicting obesity while relying less on dietary data, paving the way for future studies to refine predictive models. This could play a crucial role in identifying lifestyle factors as predictors of obesity, thereby preventing and intervening early to address obesity-related complications.","PeriodicalId":10399,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Obesity","volume":" ","pages":"e70011"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143779296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Periodontitis is an irreversible immune-mediated inflammatory disease of hard and soft tissue supporting teeth. If left untreated, periodontitis can lead to tooth loss, affecting food choices and healthy eating, therefore affecting overall health. Obesity is an independent predictive factor for worsened periodontal inflammation, increased onset, progression, severity, and recurrence of infection, as well as delayed wound healing. Thus, managing obesity and associated metabolic dysfunctions may improve periodontal therapy outcomes. The chronic inflammatory state of obesity impairs immune regulation exacerbating the inflammatory gingival tissue destruction of periodontitis, which can also systemically contribute to inflammatory mediators. Furthermore, bariatric surgeons and dietitians should educate patients with obesity regarding the risk of elevated caries, xerostomia, and periodontitis risk from acid reflux and frequent food intake. Non-dental healthcare professionals should recognise periodontal disease signs to prompt dental referral when warranted. Asking patients about recent dental visits promotes patient involvement in cross-discipline dialogue to enhance patient care coordination between medicine and dentistry. This article discusses the association between these two diseases, the challenges of achieving optimal periodontal treatment outcomes, and the clinical strategies to enhance holistic care. It also explores oral health considerations in dietary and surgical interventions in the treatment of obesity.","PeriodicalId":10399,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Obesity","volume":" ","pages":"e70002"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143708917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Health literacy and self-efficacy may impact recovery after surgery. In this multicentre study performed in three hospitals in Sweden, we evaluated any relation between preoperative health literacy and general self-efficacy on the one side and weight loss, health-related quality of life, length of stay, and complications up to 2 years after bariatric surgery on the other. Of 686 included patients, 56% (n = 382) had limited functional health literacy, 42% (n = 278) had limited communicative and critical health literacy, and 40% (n = 266) reported low general self-efficacy. Preoperative functional, communicative and critical health literacy, and general self-efficacy were not associated with the degree of weight loss at 1 or 2 years after surgery. However, limited health literacy and low general self-efficacy scores were associated with both reduced quality of life and obesity-related problems postoperatively. Further, a higher proportion of those with inadequate health literacy had a prolonged length of stay. Although patients with limited health literacy and self-efficacy may experience similar maximum weight loss after bariatric surgery as other patients, they still might have reduced health-related quality of life in terms of obesity-related problems. Increased awareness of this association as well as patient-centered support before and after bariatric surgery may be of benefit.","PeriodicalId":10399,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Obesity","volume":" ","pages":"e70009"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143584886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, MBS outperformed LSM in reducing body mass index (BMI), BMI z-score, waist circumference, glycated haemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose, insulin resistance, triglycerides, alanine aminotransferase, high sensitivity C-reactive protein and an overall improvement of physical functioning and quality of life. The safety profile was comparable between the two groups; however, data was scarce.

This study also wants to develop a framework to sustain a long-term follow-up. This qualitative study was conducted in July 2022 at a bariatric surgery centre in southern Portugal, comprising four focus group sessions. Participants included seven health professionals in one focus group and 16 patients divided across three focus groups. Patients were selected based on specific criteria, including those awaiting bariatric surgery and those who had undergone surgery within the past 1 to 5 years. The patient focus group script consisted of 11 open-ended main questions with follow-up prompts to explore motivations, experiences with the presurgery and postsurgery processes and perceptions of lifestyle changes. Sessions lasted between 40 and 70 min. Participants reported the need for a reference professional in the hospital to contact, the importance of psychological support to help patients deal with the 'ups and downs' of postsurgery life and the financial support for physical activity programmes. This research helped identify a need for a framework for long-term follow-up and showed priorities to tailor health services for managing bariatric surgery patients.

Adjuvant treatments include new glucagon-like peptide 1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide receptor agonists (GLP1/GIP-RA) or revisional endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (R-ESG). We here compare the outcomes of these treatments.Methods: A retrospective study of patients ≥18 years with prior SG treated with semaglutide, tirzepatide or R-ESG for weight recidivism between January 2019 and 2023 at large academic centre. Primary outcomes were total body weight loss (TBWL) and adverse events (AEs). Secondary outcomes were changes in metabolic parameters. Tertiary outcome was to compare GLP1/GIP-RA outcomes in SG patients to matched patients with intact stomach.Results: Our study included 68 (prior SG + GLP1/GIP-RA) and 22 (prior SG + R-ESG). R-ESG offered higher TBWL% than GLP1/GIP-RA at 3 (11.2% vs. 4.3%, p < .001), 6 (13.5% vs. 6.8%, p < .001) and 12 months (13.4% vs. 9.2%, p = .07) with no significant difference in AEs or change in metabolic parameters. On subgroup analysis, tirzepatide achieved similar 12-months TBWL% as R-ESG (13.2% vs. 13.4%, p = .9) and significantly more than semaglutide (13.2% vs. 8.1%, p = .04).
