Objective: To examine if preoperative weight loss correlates to postoperative weight loss 2 and 3 years after surgery.
Methods: A review was conducted of bariatric surgery patients who underwent either gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy during 2015-2018 and had 3-year follow-up data. Demographic and outcome data were collected. A best-fit regression model for weight loss was constructed.
Results: Eight hundred fifty-nine patients underwent surgery during the selected period, of which 199 patients (23%) were analyzed. Eighty-two percent of patients had gastric bypass and 82% were female. Preoperative percent excess weight loss (%EWL) was not significantly associated with 2- and 3-year postoperative %EWL (p = 0.18). Patients demonstrated significant weight regain at 3 years postoperatively versus 1 year (p < 0.01). Higher preoperative weight loss was associated with lower %EWL 3 years postoperatively versus 1 year (p = 0.04). Postoperative %EWL had a significant negative association with higher preoperative weight, diabetes, baseline use of a mobility device, and sleeve gastrectomy.
Conclusions: In a cohort of bariatric surgery patients, there was no statistically significant association between preoperative and midterm postoperative %EWL. Postoperative %EWL was negatively associated with several patient-specific factors and increasing time since operation.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between surgical fear level and postoperative pain, nausea–vomiting, and sleep quality in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Methods: The data for the descriptive and cross-sectional study were collected using the Descriptive Information Form, Surgical Fear Questionnaire, Visual Analog Scale, Rhodes Index of Nausea Vomiting and Retching, and Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire. The study was conducted with 105 patients. The extent of the relationship between the predictors was evaluated through stepwise multiple linear regression analysis. Results: Preoperative surgical fear was determined as an effective factor in the severity of pain and sleep quality at the postoperative fourth hour. Concerning the increase of the severity of pain at the 12th and 24th hours, body mass index and accompanying comorbidities, postoperative nausea–vomiting, presence of chronic disease among the complaints, and age were effective factors. Pre-hospitalization sleep quality and comorbidity status of the patients were determined as predictors of postoperative sleep quality. Conclusions: Surgical fear of the patients was determined to increase the fourth-hour pain severity and decrease postoperative sleep quality. Some characteristics of the patients were associated with an increase in postoperative pain and nausea–vomiting symptoms and a decrease in sleep quality.
