Depression was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire among individuals with LSG. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p> A total of 344 eligible participants were included in the study. A significant percentage of the participants, almost one-third, were suffering from depression 27% ( n\u2009=\u200994). Moderate to severe depression levels among participants were significantly associated with postoperative complications [odds ratio, OR: 2.92 (95% CI: 1.42\u20136.01, p\u2009=\u2009.003)] and having preoperative psychological disorders before LSG [OR: 3.68 (95% CI: 1.88\u20137.26, p\u2009&lt;\u2009.001)]. In contrast, lower levels of depression were significantly associated with believing LSG has achieved its goals [OR: 0.46 (95% CI: 0.22\u20130.97, p\u2009=\u2009.014)] and recommending LSG to family or friends [OR: 0.15 (95% CI: 0.05\u20130.44, p\u2009=\u2009.001)]. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p> There is an evident link between depression and experiencing postoperative complications and suffering from psychological disorders before LSG. The findings of the current study would pave the road for the development of psychological strategies designed to break the cyclic pattern of occurrence of depression as well as optimize the success and maintenance of this treatment modality and support recovery for individuals undergoing LSG. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/23779608241290688","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]],"date-time":"2024-10-17T18:17:20Z","timestamp":1729189040000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Psychological Scars Shouldn\u2019t be Ignored: Addressing Factors Linked to Depression among Individuals with Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7762-993X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abeer","family":"Selim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt"},{"name":"College of Nursing, King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emad","family":"Musaudi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Medicine and Health Sciences, United Arab Emirates University, Al Ain, United Arab Emirates"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zohour Ibrahim","family":"Rashwan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt"},{"name":"Nursing Department, College of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Bahrain, Zallaq, Bahrain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maha","family":"Alenezi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rasha","family":"Alshalawi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"King Saud Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Majd","family":"Nafea","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"King Abdullah Specialist Children Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alya","family":"Shaib","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alyaa","family":"Ibrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Nursing, King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Community Health Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rasha Salah","family":"Eweida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, College of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Bahrain, Zallaq, Bahrain"},{"name":"Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-23779608241290688","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1614362"},{"key":"bibr2-23779608241290688","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/2347-2618.184930"},{"issue":"10","key":"bibr3-23779608241290688","first-page":"589","volume":"20","author":"Al-Quwaidhi A.","year":"2014","journal-title":"Eastern Mediterranean Health Journal = La Revue de Sante de la Mediterranee orientale = al-Majallah al-Sihhiyah li-Sharq al-Mutawassit"},{"key":"bibr4-23779608241290688","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-018-3371-0"},{"issue":"12","key":"bibr5-23779608241290688","volume":"14","author":"Alshammari S.
