ABSTRACT
Obesity is an increasing health problem worldwide. Obesity has characteristics of a prothrombotic state along with other endocrine and metabolic disturbances. We focused on the pathophysiological substrate of hypercoagulability and the potential consequences of weight loss post bariatric surgery on biochemical markers of procoagulant activity and dyslipidemia. A total 24 morbidly obese patients [18 women, 6 men] of mean age 32.96 +/- 5.9 and mean BMI 44.25 +/- 2.8 kg/m2 underwent restrictive gastric surgery [vertical banded gastroplasty,VBG]. Body mass index, blood pressure, lipid profile, plasma fibrinogen and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 were monitored at baseline, 6 and 12 months post surgery. A significant weight loss was observed in all patients during the one year follow-up period. Mean body mass index was 44.25 +/- 2.8 kg/m2 before surgery, and significantly decreased to 37.79 +/- 2.60 kg/m2 at 6 month [p<0.001] and to 35.62 +/- 2.69 kg/m2 at 12 [P<0.001] months post bariatric surgery. After the dramatic weight reduction, a significant reduction in TC [p<0.01], LDL-C [p<0.01] and TG [p<0.001], plasma fibrinogen [p<0.001] and PAI - l [p<0.001] levels were observed throughout 12-month follow-up, with a significant rise in HDL-C[p<0.001]. Bariatric surgery could optimize cardiovascular risk profile and exert beneficial effects on thrombosis and the hemostasis axis in obesity. Weight loss resulted in improved metabolic parameters, suggesting a lowered atherogenic risk
