Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To examine 24-h blood pressure (24BP), systemic haemodynamics and the effect of sodium intake on 24BP in obese patients before and aftergastric bypass surgery [laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB)], and to determine whether weight loss from LRYGB might be related to an increase in plasma concentrations of atrial natriuretic peptide. METHODS:Twelve hypertensive and 12 normotensive morbidly obese patients underwent LRYGB: 24BP, systemic haemodynamics and mid-regional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MRproANP) were assessed before, 6 weeks and 12 months after surgery. The effect of high versus low sodium intake on 24BP was evaluated before and 12 months after LRYGB. RESULTS: Six weeks after LRYGB, the average weight loss was 20 kg, with a further 21 kg weight loss 1 year after surgery. In hypertensive patients, 24BP was significantly reduced at 6 weeks, but not 1 year after LRYGB. However, antihypertensive medications were successively reduced from baseline to 1 year after surgery. In normotensive patients, there was no change in 24BP 6 weeks after LRYGB, but a tendency towards a reduction 1 year after the operation. Plasma concentrations of MRproANP were subnormal prior to surgery in hypertensive patients and increased by 77% 1 year after the operation. In normotensive patients, preoperative concentrations were normal and increased only by 6%. High sodium intake induced plasma volume expansion, increased stroke volume and cardiac output, but no significant change in 24BP - neither before nor after LRYGB. CONCLUSIONS: LRYGB resulted in a significant 24BP reduction and a substantial increase in MRproANP plasma concentrations in hypertensive, obese patients 6 weeks after surgery, suggesting a causal link between obesity-hypertension and altered release/degradation of cardiac natriuretic peptides.
