Early major complications after bariatric surgery in the USA, 2003 –2014: a systematic review and meta‐analysis
Summary
The effectiveness of bariatric surgery has been well‐studied. However, complications after bariatric surgery have been understudied. This review assesses <30‐d major complications associated with bariatric procedures, including anastomotic leak, myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism. This review included 71 studies conducted in the USA between 2003 and 2014 and 107,874 patients undergoing either gastric bypass, adjustable gastric banding or sleeve gastrectomy, with mean age of 44 years and pre‐surgery body mass index of 46.5 kg m−2. Less than 30‐d anastomotic leak rate was 1.15%; myocardial i...

Long ‐term risk of diabetes in women at varying durations after gestational diabetes: a systematic review and meta‐analysis with more than 2 million women
This study aims to investigate the impact of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on the long‐term risks of diabetes in women with prior GDM, including the effect at different time periods after GDM. We searched PubMed and other databases to retrieve articles which were published prior to February 28, 2017. Cohort studies which evaluated the risk and time of onset of diabetes postpartum in women with and without GDM were included. Meta‐analysis with random effects models was used to obtain pooled relative risks and 95% confidence intervals for the risk of diabetes. Subgroup analyses were performed to check for different...

A systematic review of the relationship between weight status perceptions and weight loss attempts, strategies, behaviours and outcomes
Summary
It is commonly assumed that a person identifying that they are ‘overweight’ is an important prerequisite to successful weight management. However, there has been no systematic evaluation of evidence supporting this proposition. The aim of the present research was to systematically review evidence on the relationship between perceived overweight and (i) weight loss attempts, (ii) weight control strategies (healthy and unhealthy), (iii) weight‐related behaviours (physical activity and eating habits), (iv) disordered eating and (v) weight change. We synthesized evidence from 78 eligible studies and evaluated evi...

Obesity genetics: insights from the Pakistani population
We describe the contribution of syndromic, monogenic non‐syndromic and polygenic obesity genes identified in the Pakistani population. We then discuss the utility of gene identification approaches based on large consanguineous families and original gene × environment interaction study designs in discovering new obesity genes and causal pathways. Elucidation of the genetic basis of obesity in the Pakistani population may result in improved methods of obesity prevention and treatment globally. (Source: Obesity Reviews)

Association of eating while television viewing and overweight/obesity among children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta ‐analysis of observational studies
The objective of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to examine the association between eating while television viewing (TVV) and overweight or obesity in children (<18 years). A systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, Web of science, PreQuest and Embase was conducted up to April 2017; pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random effects model. Of 4,357 articles identified, 20 observational studies met inclusion criteria (n = 84,825) and 8 of these 20 (n = 41,617) reported OR. Eating while TVV was positively associated with obesity‐related anthropometric measurem...

Predicting childhood overweight and obesity using maternal and early life risk factors: a systematic review
ConclusionSeveral prediction models exist, but most have not been externally validated or compared with existing models to improve predictive performance. Methodological limitations in model development and validation combined with non‐standard reporting restrict the implementation of existing models for the prevention of childhood obesity.

Parental experiences and perceptions of infant complementary feeding: a qualitative evidence synthesis
DiscussionParents predominantly understand and want to engage in healthy feeding processes. Consideration of infant feeding as a process that changes over time is necessary to support parents. Provision of clear, consistent information and guidance from trusted sources on when, what and how to feed is also essential. (Source: Obesity Reviews)

Effectiveness of extended contact interventions for weight management delivered via text messaging: a systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionEvidence from the small number of studies reviewed suggests that extended contact, text message‐delivered interventions are effective. Further research is required to elucidate effective intervention components and the longer‐term impact on weight, diet and physical activity behaviour. (Source: Obesity Reviews)
