Bariatric endoscopy is an increasingly recognized alternative to surgery for obesity treatment. Recent guidelines from leading medical societies (IFSO, ASMBS, ASGE, ESGE) have included endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) and the intragastric balloon (IGB) in their recommendations. These procedures are indicated for patients with a body mass index (BMI) between 27 and 40 kg/m² who cannot or do not wish to undergo surgery.

Background: A clear understanding of minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and substantial clinical benefit (SCB) is essential for effectively implementing patient-reported outcome measurements (PROMs) as a performance measure for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Since not achieving MCID and SCB may reflect suboptimal surgical benefit, the primary aim of this study was to use machine learning to predict patients who may not achieve the threshold-based outcomes (i.e.

Background: Preoperative treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) before bariatric surgery has not been studied. Therefore, we investigated the impact of neoadjuvant treatment with GLP-1 RAs on weight loss and postoperative outcomes in patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy for severe obesity.
Method: A retrospective single-center study was conducted between January 2022 and December 2023.

Background: The integration of digital tools in aesthetic medicine has enhanced the precision of facial feature analysis. Using concepts like the Golden Ratio, these technologies enable more objective assessments of facial proportions and symmetry. The beauty scanner-face analyzer (BS-FA) app offers a digital approach to evaluate geometric proportions and facial alignment, providing valuable data for preoperative planning in plastic surgery and aesthetic treatments.
