- Changes in Neuropsychological Tests and Brain Metabolism After Bariatric Surgery(2014) MARQUES, Emerson Leonildo; HALPERN, Alfredo; MANCINI, Marcio Correa; MELO, Maria Edna de; HORIE, Ndia Celeste; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos Alberto; COUTINHO, Artur Martins Novaes; ONO, Carla Rachel; PRANDO, Silvana; SANTO, Marco Aurelio; CUNHA-NETO, Edecio; FUENTES, Daniel; CERCATO, CintiaContext: The mechanisms by which obesity alters the cerebral function and the effect of weight loss on the brain have not been completely clarified. Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the effect of bariatric surgery on the cognitive function and cerebral metabolism. Design: Seventeen obese women were studied prior to and 24 weeks after bariatric surgery using neuropsychological tests and positron emission tomography. Setting: The study was conducted in a reference center for the treatment of obesity of a Brazilian public university. Participants: Thirty-three women paired by age and level of education made up two groups: 17 severely obese patients and 16 lean patients. They did not have diabetes mellitus or a family history of dementia. Main Outcome Measures: Comparison of performance in neuropsychological tests and cerebral metabolism of the obese women before and after bariatric surgery was measured. The results found at the two moments were compared with those of the women of normal weight. Results: Women with a mean age of 40.5 years and mean body mass index of 50.1 kg/m(2) when compared with women with mean body mass index of 22.3 kg/m(2) showed increased cerebral metabolism, especially in the posterior cingulate gyrus (P <.004). No difference was found between the groups for the neuropsychological tests. After 24 weeks the cerebral metabolism of the obese women was lower, similar to the lean women, and there was an improvement of executive function, accompanying changes of metabolic and inflammatory parameters. Conclusions: Obese women may have increased cerebral metabolism when compared with women of normal weight, and this appears to reverse after weight loss induced by bariatric surgery, accompanied by improved executive function.
conferenceObject Effects of exercise training in a weight loss lifestyle intervention on clinical control, quality of life and psychosocial symptoms in obese asthmatics: A RCT(2014) FREITAS, Patricia D.; FERREIRA, Palmira G.; ANALUCI, S.; STELMACH, Rafael; PINTO, Regina C.; SAGE, Joao M.; MARTINS, Milton A.; MANCINI, Marcio C.; CARVALHO, Celso R. F.- Bariatric surgery - An update for the endocrinologist(2014) MANCINI, Marcio C.Obesity is a major public health problem, is associated with increased rates of mortality risk and of developing several comorbidities, and lessens life expectancy. Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for morbidly obese patients, reducing risk of developing new comorbidities, health care utilization and mortality. The establishment of centers of excellence with interdisciplinary staff in bariatric surgery has been reducing operative mortality in the course of time, improving surgical safety and quality. The endocrinologist is part of the interdisciplinary team. The aim of this review is to provide endocrinologists, physicians and health care providers crucial elements of good clinical practice in the management of morbidly obese bariatric surgical candidates. This information includes formal indications and contraindications for bariatric operations, description of usual bariatric and metabolic operations as well as endoscopic treatments, preoperative assessments including psychological, metabolic and cardiorespiratory evaluation and postoperative dietary staged meal progression and nutritional supplementation follow-up with micronutrient deficiencies monitoring, surgical complications, suspension of medications in type 2 diabetic patients, dumping syndrome and hypoglycemia.
- Brown adipose tissue: what have we learned since its recent identification in human adults(2014) HALPERN, Bruno; MANCINI, Marcio Correa; HALPERN, AlfredoBrown adipose tissue, an essential organ for thermoregulation in small and hibernating mammals due to its mitochondrial uncoupling capacity, was until recently considered to be present in humans only in newborns. The identification of brown adipose tissue in adult humans since the development and use of positron emission tomography marked with 18-fluorodeoxyglucose (PET-FDG) has raised a series of doubts and questions about its real importance in our metabolism. In this review, we will discuss what we have learnt since its identification in humans as well as both new and old concepts, some of which have been marginalized for decades, such as diet-induced thermogenesis.
- Eating attitudes of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and obesity without eating disorder female patients: differences and similarities(2014) ALVARENGA, M. S.; KORITAR, P.; PISCIOLARO, F.; MANCINI, M.; CORDAS, T. A.; SCAGLIUSI, F. B.The objective was to compare eating attitudes, conceptualized as beliefs, thoughts, feelings, behaviors and relationship with food, of anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED) patients and a group of obese (OBS) without eating disorders (ED). Female patients from an Eating Disorder (ED) Unit with AN (n = 42), BN (n = 52) and BED (n = 53) and from an obesity service (n = 37) in Brazil answered the Disordered Eating Attitude Scale (DEAS) which evaluate eating attitudes with 5 subscales: relationship with food, concerns about food and weight gain, restrictive and compensatory practices, feelings toward eating, and idea of normal eating. OBS patients were recruited among those without ED symptoms according to the Binge Eating Scale and the Questionnaire on Eating and Weight Patterns. ANOVA was used to compare body mass index and age between groups. Bonferroni test was used to analyze multiple comparisons among groups. AN and BN patients presented more dysfunctional eating attitudes and OBS patients less dysfunctional (p < 0.001). For DEAS total score, AN and BN patients were similar and all other were different (p < 0.001). Similarities suggested between BN and BED were true just for the ""Relationship with food"" and ""Idea of normal eating."" BED patients were worst than OBS for ""Relationship with food"" and as dysfunctional as AN patients - besides their behavior could be considered the opposite. Differences and similarities support a therapeutic individualized approach for ED and obese patients, call attention for the theoretical differences between obesity and ED, and suggest more research focused on eating attitudes.
