Weight loss (WL) after bariatric surgery (BS) may influence LV morphology and function. Using echocardiography, this study assessed the effect of WL on LV diastolic function (LVDF) and LV and left atrium (LA) morphology 6 months after BS in young women with morbid obesity. Methods: Echocardiography was performed in 60 women with body mass index ≥ 40 kg/m², aged 37.1 ± ± 9.6 years prior to and 6 months after BS. In 38 patients, well-controlled arterial hypertension was present. Heart failure, coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation and mitral stenosis were exclusion criteria. Parameters of LV and LA morphology were obtained. To evaluate LVDF, mitral peak early (E) and atrial (A) velocities, E-deceleration time (DcT), pulmonary vein S, D and A reversal velocities were measured. Peak early diastolic mitral annular velocities (E’) and E/E’ were assessed. Results: Mean WL post BS was 35.7 kg (27%).

But also: We cannot understand gender without understanding the social world. M. Kimmel The aim of the conference is to exchange experiences and reflections between scientists, researchers and practitioners from different fields of science and social life areas dealing with gender concepts and their influence on the functioning of men and women in society. This will provide an opportunity to learn about the theoretical approaches, concepts and research results on gender issues in order to gain a better understanding and explore the relationship between society and gender. During the two-day conference we plan not only to hold a presentations of the submitted papers, but also a discussion panel allowing us to share our experiences and freely discuss the problems, challenges and research perspectives related to the proposed topic with representatives of various academic centres and organizations. The conference is dedicated to Professor Ewa Malinowska, who celebrates the 47th anniversary of her scientific and didactic work. Therefore we plan a session devoted to scientific problems which are the subject of the Jubilarian's theoretical and empirical interests. The session will include the gender approach in social research, the phenomenon of genderisation of social life in patriarchal society, and feminism and women's movement.
