From: Impact of weight trajectory after bariatric surgery on co-morbidity evolution and burden
Total 10-year co-morbidity treatment and costs by scenario analysis of mixed-weight loss trajectory cohorts. Results are shown for burden (co-morbidity patient-years of treatment and corresponding costs in millions of 2018 Canadian dollars) associated with mixed weight trajectory cohorts. The distributions of patients among the trajectories are listed in Table 2. Standard care represents the case where patients are distributed among all 6 trajectories, broad improvement has all patients on trajectories lower than the best moved up to the next best trajectory, and the top 3 trajectories scenario redistributes patients among the top 3 best trajectories. Bars indicate medians and error ranges 95% CrIs. CAD, Canadian dollars; DLP, dyslipidaemia; HTN, hypertension; T2D, type 2 diabetes mellitus
