Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective, multicenter cohort study, which subjects were obese patients requiring bariatric surgery.

This study aims to explore the the effectiveness of bariatric surgery for NAFLD/NASH with fribrosis, to explore the differences in the effectiveness among sleeve gastrostomy \[SG\], Roux-en-Y gastric bypass \[RYGB\], or one anastomosis gastric bypass \[OAGB\], and to explore the independent effectiveness of bariatric surgery in histological remission of NAFLD/NASH.

The first stage of the cohort was started in 2020, named Base-NAFLD; In May 2024, based on Base-NAFLD, we plan to continue established a secondary cohort, named Base-NASH.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

SG

In this group, the bariatric procedure is sleeve gastrectomy (SG), all operations follow the same standard operating procedure.

SG

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

SG involved a vertical gastric resection beginning 4-6 cm from the pylorus and ending 1-2 cm from the His angle, using linear staplers with the guidance of a 36 French intragastric bougie.

RYGB

In this group, the bariatric procedure is Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), all operations follow the same standard operating procedure.

RYGB

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

RYGB entails the creation of a 15-30 mL (approximate) gastric pouch, a 150 cm Roux limb, and a 50 cm biliopancreatic limb.

OAGB

In this group, the bariatric procedure is one anastomosis gastric bypass(OAGB), all operations follow the same standard operating procedure.

OAGB

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

OAGB entails the creation of a long gastric tube by beginning 2 cm below the angular incisure starting from the lesser curvature side and then divided vertically upward by linear cutting staplers as calibrated with a 36 French bougie, followed by the creation of a single gastrojejunal anastomosis with an afferent biliopancreatic limb of 200 cm.
