| Abstract |
The restrictive and/or malabsorptive nature of bariatric surgery may increase the risk for micronutrient deficiencies. This systematic review aimed to identify and critique the evidence for vitamin A, B1, C or E deficiencies associated with bariatric surgery. This review utilised PRISMA and MOOSE frameworks with NHMRC evidence hierarchy and the American Dietetic Association bias tool to assess the quality of articles. Twenty-one articles were included and once critiqued all studies were of level IV grade and neutral or negative in quality. The relevance of measuring micronutrient supplementation and inflammatory markers for validity of serum vitamins is absent within the literature. Future research is needed to investigate the risk of deficiency for these procedures with focus on confounders to serum micronutrients. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 August 2020.
All research outputs
#6,164,978
of 23,100,534 outputs
Outputs from Obesity Surgery
#826
of 3,415 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#107,121
of 333,251 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Obesity Surgery
#20
of 65 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,100,534 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 73rd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,415 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 333,251 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 65 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its contemporaries.
