The intragastric balloon was retained in the stomach for an average of 6 months. Conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography were performed in all patients before and after the procedure. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; The mean age of the study participants was 36 \u00b1 10 years (range: 18-55). The mean body mass index was significantly decreased following the intragastric balloon insertion procedure (44 \u00b1 8 vs. 38 \u00b1 5, p &lt; 0.001). The left ventricular mass index and left atrial volume index were significantly decreased following the procedure (112 \u00b1 21 vs. 93 \u00b1 17, p = 0.001 and 20 \u00b1 6 vs. 14 \u00b1 5, p = 0.02, respectfully). In addition, the ratio of mitral peak early diastolic velocity to tissue Doppler-derived peak diastolic velocity and tissue Doppler echocardiography-derived left ventricular myocardial performance index were decreased significantly following the procedure (9.5 \u00b1 1.9 vs. 7.7 \u00b1 1.5, p = 0.002 and 0.57 \u00b1 0.11 vs. 0.46 \u00b1 0.06, p = 0.001, respectively). &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Intragastric balloon therapy resulted in significant weight reduction in morbidly obese patients. This weight reduction was associated with improved left ventricular function.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000431177","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,18]],"date-time":"2015-06-18T21:01:58Z","timestamp":1434661318000},"page":"432-435","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Effect of Weight Loss Induced by Intragastric Balloon Therapy on Cardiac Function in Morbidly Obese Individuals: A Pilot Study"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Fatih","family":"Koc","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huseyin Ayhan","family":"Kayaoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atac","family":"Celik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fatih","family":"Altunkas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Metin","family":"Karayakali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kerem","family":"Ozbek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kayihan","family":"Karaman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hasan","family":"Kadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erdinc","family":"Yenidogan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000331793"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2006.03.004"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1525-2167(03)00034-9"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-007-9331-8"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/oby.2010.42"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF03324798"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9149(86)90771-X"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2009.07.054"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000334480"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-013-1061-5"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00380-005-0858-0"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8175.2007.00415.x"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2143\/AC.66.5.2131086"}],"container-title":["Medical Principles and Practice"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/431177","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/431177","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/431177","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T18:11:15Z","timestamp":1745431875000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000431177"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2015]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000431177","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1011-7571","1423-0151"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1011-7571"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1423-0151"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2015]]}}}
