Study summary

Metabolic syndrome is a combination of several metabolic abnormalities that coexist, including obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidaemia. These metabolic abnormalities not only increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, but are also closely associated with metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, and many types of cancer. With the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its complications increasing year by year, how to effectively prevent and treat metabolic syndrome has become a major challenge for global public health. In recent years, metabolomics, as a high-throughput analytical technique to study metabolites in organisms, has been gradually applied to the study of metabolic syndrome and related metabolic diseases. Metabolomics can comprehensively depict the metabolic state of an organism and its dynamic changes, which provides a new perspective for revealing the pathological mechanisms of metabolic syndrome and searching for potential biomarkers. Through in-depth analysis of metabolomics data, researchers are able to better understand the complex pathological process of metabolic syndrome and provide a scientific basis for the development of personalised treatment and intervention strategies. Surgical intervention is a common treatment for patients with metabolic syndrome combined with metabolic diseases. However, postoperative metabolic status and disease remission are affected by a variety of factors, and the relevant mechanisms have not been fully clarified. Metabolomics-based approaches can systematically analyse the changes in metabolites before and after surgery, explore the key factors affecting postoperative remission, and reveal their underlying mechanisms. These studies can not only optimise the surgical treatment plan, but also provide an important theoretical basis for postoperative management.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Metabolic disease remission — From date of surgery until the date of first documented postoperative complication, assessed up to 2 months after surgery.
  Metabolic disease remission was defined as any remission of hypertention, diabetes, or fatty liver measured 2 months after surgery. Hypertension remission was defined as arterial blood pressure less than 140/90 mmHg measured postoperatively in patients with preoperative comorbid hypertension. Diabetes remission was defined as fasting blood glucose less than 6 mmol/L measured postoperatively in patients with preoperative comorbid diabetes. Fatty liver remission was defined as liver function in the normal range measured by postoperative blood tests in patients with preoperative comorbid fatty liver.
