AbstractObjectives: To determine and compare the efficacy of two weight-reducing surgicalinterventions, gastric bypass (GBP) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG), in inducingremission/improvement of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Materials and Methods:Data were collected from 162 obese T2DM subjects who underwent SG (96) or GBP(66) between 2009 and 2011. The following parameters were recorded: body massindex, waist-hip-ratio, blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c, lipid profile,hypoglycemic drugs used. Results: Remission of T2DM was achieved in 83% ofpatients who underwent SG and in 81% of patients who underwent GBP. For bothprocedures, T2DM remission rate was higher for patients with a shorter duration ofT2DM, with better preoperative glycemic control and for those not requiringpharmacological agents before surgery. Conclusions: SG and GBP are effective ininducing T2DM remission in obese patients. The clinical features of T2DM areimportant predictors for the remission of the disease after bariatric surgery.

 Background: Surgically induced weight loss is a treatment option for the management of obesity and the related common disorders. This study evaluated the beneficial effects of bariatric surgery on metabolic profile and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) among Iranian patients.Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was performed on 26 morbidly obese patients scheduled for bariatric surgery, using laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). The parameters of hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hyperlipidemia, MetS prevalence, and anthropometric measurements of Iranian patients, were recorded, at the preoperative visit and in follow-ups. The follow-up was performed for a median of 12 months, and the change in MetS prevalence and its componnts were assesed.Results: LRYGB induced a mean weight loss of 69.0±21.2%, after 12 months. Preoperative MetS was diagnosed in 21 patients (84%) and decreased to 6 patients (24%) after LRYGB (P=0.001). Likewise, the prevalence of hypertension was significantly decreased from 76% (pre-LRYGB values) to 20% (post-LRYGB values) (P=0.001). The prevalence of T2DM was also decreased from 20% to 8% (P=0.5).Conclusion: According to our results, RYGB produced a rapid and significant weight loss and improvement in hypertension and MetS within one year but there was a controversy about the improvement of T2DM, in Iranian morbidly obese patients.
