Abstract
The aim was to investigate the impact of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in sleeve gastrectomy (SG).15 obese patients were enrolled in this study ; mean body weight (BW) 127.5kg ; mean body mass index (BMI) 46.7kg/m2. 10 of these were diabetics who underwent a SG. The impact of the pre-operative NLR on the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) and remission of diabetes 1 year post-operative were examined.The %EWL at 1 year post-operative were 46.3%. Improvements were also evident in the diabetes at 1 year post-operative : complete remission (CR) 40%, partial remission (PR) 20% and Improve 40%. Comparing pre-operative NLR in %EWL<50% and ≧50% in 1 year post-operative, <50% was 2.64 and ≧50% was 2.03. The NLR in CR and PR was significantly lower than that in Improve.The pre-operative NLR may be a predictive marker of weight loss and improving diabetes after SG. J. Med. Invest. 70 : 140-144, February, 2023.
