Abstract
Obesity is a global pandemic with increasing prevalence and long-term negative health outcomes. Bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) is the most effective treatment option for achieving long-term weight loss. A systematic search was performed from 1990 to 2020 of BMS procedures using standardised groups. Data were collected on operation type reported, country and continent of publication. North America and Europe were the leading contributors to global publications in BMS, producing 41.3 % (n = 4931) and 37.1 % (n = 4436) of publications respectively, with increasing publications from Asia. Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) and Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) were the most studied procedure types with number of publications continuing to increase over time. A plateau and downward trend was seen for Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band (LAGB) publication from 2015 to 2019. An increase in emerging/experimental techniques over the past decade is observed.
