Hypoglycemia is a serious complication of bariatric surgery. The aim of the present meta-analysis was to evaluate the rate and the timing of post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) with different bariatric procedures using reliable data from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).Studies were systematically searched in the Web of Science, Scopus and PubMed databases according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The prevalence of PBH was expressed as weighted mean prevalence (WMP) with pertinent 95% confidence intervals (95%CI). A total of 8 studies (16 datasets) enrolling 280 bariatric subjects were identified. The total WMP of PBH was 54.3% (95%CI: 44.5%–63.8%) while the WMP of nocturnal PBH was 16.4% (95%CI: 7.0%–34%). We found a comparable rate of PBH after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) (OR 1.62, 95%CI: 0.71–3.7; P = 0.248); likewise, the percent time spent in hypoglycemia was similar with the two procedures (mean difference 5.3%, 95%CI: −1.4%–12.0%; P = 0.122); however, RYGB was characterized by a higher glycemic variability than SG. Regression models showed that the time elapsed from surgical intervention was positively associated with a higher rate of both total PBH (Z-value: 3.32, P < 0.001) and nocturnal PBH (Z-value: 2.15, P = 0.013).PBH, both post-prandial and nocturnal, is more prevalent than currently believed. The rate of PBH increases at increasing time from surgery and is comparable after RYGB and SG with a higher glucose variability after RYGB.
