The study included patients who met the eligibility criteria for bariatric surgery. Patients underwent Roux-en-Y gastrectomy (RYGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Surveys, measurements of anthropometric parameters, office and 24-hour blood pressure, flow and nitro-glycerine mediated dilation of brachial artery, intima-media thickness of carotid artery complex, skin microcirculation flows at rest and after ischemic stimulation were carried out. Lipid profile, levels of glucose, HbA1c, insulin, leptin, adiponectin, hsCRP, HOMA-IR were assessed. Surgical treatment of obesity positively modifies the blood pressure profile and blood pressure variability as early as 10 days after surgery and the effect persists 6 months after the intervention. A decrease of mean blood pressure values in 24-hour monitoring, as well as a reduction of blood pressure variability occur mainly in patients with hypertension. Early markers of atherosclerosis are modified among extremely obese patients within 6 months after bariatric surgery. Improvement of the flow-mediated dilatation of brachial artery}, abstract={is mainly observed in men, hypertensive patients, and patients undergoing RYGB. The reactivity of microcirculation improves half a year after surgical intervention and improvement is observed mainly in patients with hypertension.}, title={Impact of bariatric surgery on blood pressure and blood vessels : prospective observation}, type={Praca doktorska}, keywords={obesity, bariatrc surgery, blood pressure, blood vessels}, }
