The Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Irisin Level: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Obes Surg. 2023 Aug 7. doi: 10.1007/s11695-023-06764-3. Online ahead of print.

ABSTRACT

This systematic analysis and meta-analysis aimed to assess changes in the plasma levels of irisin after bariatric surgery. Search strategy, study screening, and data gathering were all conducted using a checklist and the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Two researchers independently extracted the data, and a third person was included to resolve disagreements. The results illustrated no statistical difference between before and after surgery irisin plasma levels (P = 0.216, 95% CI = -1.812-0.410, SMD = -0.701, I-squared = 94.9%). BMI exhibited a meaningful decline after surgery compared to preoperative values (SMD = -3.09, 95% CI = -4.59–1.59, I-squared = 95.5%, P<0.05). According to our analysis, it can be concluded that irisin plasma levels are not significantly influenced by bariatric surgery.
