Research progress on correlation between weight loss surgery and serum lipid metabolism
Obesity is a very common public health problem.It is a chronic metabolic disease of multi-factorial origin with limited treatment options.Weight loss surgery is considered to be the most effective treatment option for obesity,which can reduce the body weight and improve metabolism.About 60%of obese patients have abnormal changes in blood lipid levels,and dyslipidemia is considered to be an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis-related diseases.Weight loss surgery can significantly improve the serum lipid profile of obese patients and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease,but its specific mecha-nism is still inconclusive.This paper introduces the possible mechanism of lipid metabolism changes from the aspects of the mass change of visceral tissues,adipokine changes,insulin sensitivity improvement,gastrointes-tinal hormones and intestinal flora,bile acid metabolism pathway,vitamins and trace elements.It is expected to further clarify the lipid-lowering mechanism of weight loss surgery in the future and provide a new way for the treatment of dyslipidemia.
