Does Postoperative Oral and Intestinal Microbiota Correlate with the Weight-Loss Following Bariatric Surgery?—A Cohort Study

Sumario:The composition of the gastrointestinal microbiota is associated with obesity. The aim of this study was to verify if, six months after bariatric surgery, patients who achieve satisfying weight-loss after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) have a different composition of oral and intestinal microbiota in comparison with those who do not. This prospective cohort study was conducted between November 2018 and November 2020. Participants underwent either SG or RYGB and were allocated into: Group 1—participants who achieved a percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) of ≥ 50%, and Group 2—patients with %EWL of < 50%. The %EWL was measured 6 months following surgery. At this time, oral swabs were obtained and stool samples were provided. The endpoint was the composition of the gut microbiota. Group 1 comprised 20 participants and Group 2 comprised 11 participants. Group 1 had oral microbiota more abundant in phylum Fusobacteria and intestinal microbiota more abundant in phylum Firmicutes. Group 2 had oral microbiota was more enriched in phylum Actinobacteria and intestinal microbiota was more enriched in phylum Bacteroidetes. The compositions of the microbiota of the oral cavity and large intestine 6 months after bariatric surgery are related to the weight-loss.
