Assessment of Nutritional Status After Gastric Bypass Surgery

This study is aimed at assessing how Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGP) impacts on energy and nutrients' intake, energy expenditure, and nutritional status in obese patients. It will try quantitate energy and protein balance after RYGP, and to identify how RYGP effects the intake of various common dietary protein sources 16 female patients with BMI > 40 kg/m2 and on a waiting list for bariatric surgery will be included. The following measurements will be performed before, and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 36 months after RYGP

* body weight * body composition (bio impedancemetry) * basal metabolic rate (open circuit indirect calorimetry) * 24-hour urinary urea excretion * fasting blood chemistry * energy and macronutrient's intake (3-day dietary recall)

Treatment and study plan

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGP)

Procedure

Primary outcomes

  1. changes in daily dietary protein intake

    Time frame: measurements obtained baseline , and 1,3, 6, 12, 36 months after surgery

    changes in 24-hour protein intake will be evaluated by 7-day food diary; portion size will be assessed with the use of photographs from the SU.VI.MAX study

Secondary outcomes

  1. changes in total energy intake

    Time frame: measurements obtained baseline , and 1,3, 6, 12, 36 months after surgery

    changes in 24-hour energy intake will be evaluated by 7-day food diary; portion size will be assessed with the use of photographs from the SU.VI.MAX study

  2. changes in basal metabolic rate

    Time frame: measurements obtained baseline , and 3, 6, 12, 36 months after surgery

    BMR will be measured by indirect calorimetry over a 45-90 min period

  3. changes in total energy intake

    Time frame: measurements obtained baseline , and 1,3, 6, 12, 36 months after surgery

    Changes in daily total energy intake will be evaluated by 7-day food diary; portion size will be assessed with the use of photographs from the SU.VI.MAX study

Other outcomes

  1. changes in fasting, resting respiratory exchange ratio

    Time frame: measurements obtained baseline, and 3, 6, 12, and 36 months after RYGP

    measurement will be obtained by indirect calorimetry

  2. changes in 24-hour urinary urea excretion

    Time frame: Measurements obtained baseline , and 3, 6, 12, 36 months after RYGP

    24-hour urine collections
