Issue 53 of Bariatric News is now available to read and/or download. In this issue, we have an exclusive report from an IFSO Consensus Meeting in Vienna and the role of obesity management medications and bariatric and metabolic surgery (BMS).
We also highlight the outcomes from two important surgical studies – the BRIDGE Study that assessed the role of BMS as a bridge to facilitate neoplastic/cancer surgery – and the BAMBINI trial that reported BMS is superior to medical care for treating PCOS.
In this issue, there is also a report from San Diego and the 40th ASMBS Annual Meeting and an interview with Uzbekistan's President of UzAMBS, Professor Oktyabr Teshaev about the rise of obesity rates, the evolution of bariatric surgery and the importance of creating a National Registry of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery in the country. We also spoke with Letizia Ceccarelli, Head of International Marketing – Endobariatrics at Boston Scientific about the changes she has seen over the last decade in the endobariatric market.
We also report Panther Healthcare's Endo Stapler reduces post-operative staple line gastric leakage and bleeding risk following BMS and a paper that show BMS associated with lower all-cause mortality compared with GLP-1RA treatment.
