Abstract Background: There is abundant evidence reporting the relationship between triglycerides levels and type 2 diabetes mellitus, however few studies confirmed the influence of triglycerides levels on the incidence of diabetes. Bariatric surgery may lead to the remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus, but the effect of basal serum triglycerides levels on this reversal is unknown. This study aimed to assess the association between preoperative triglycerides levels and pre- and type 2 diabetes mellitus remission in obese patients one year after bariatric surgery. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted among 1959 obese patients who underwent bariatric surgery in our entre. Data on socio-demographic and clinical characteristics were used. Pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus remission was defined as normal glycaemic measures at least one year’s duration without pharmacological therapy. Logistic regression models, crude and adjusted for sex, age, preoperative serum triglycerides levels and type of bariatric surgery, were used. Results: The median of preoperative serum triglycerides level was 121.00 (SD=75.00) mg/dL, and 34.7% and 30.0% of patients presented pre- and type 2 diabetes mellitus, respectively, at baseline. Preoperative serum triglycerides levels were higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (139.00 vs. 106.00 mg/dL, in normal glycaemic patients; p<0.001) and showed to be significantly correlated with fasting glycaemia, glycated haemoglobin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance and homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function. One year after bariatric surgery, 62.5% of patients with pre- or type 2 diabetes at baseline showed remission. Preoperative serum triglycerides levels were negatively associated with this remission (OR: 0.997; 95%CI=0.995–0.998), independently of, sex, age and type of bariatric surgery. Conclusions: One year after bariatric surgery, 62.5% of patients showed pre- or type 2 diabetes mellitus remission, being the preoperative serum triglycerides levels an important clinical parameter for remission.

AIM: To investigate the effect of bariatric surgery on HbA1c and serum cortisol levels in morbidly obese patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-nine patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy and whose body mass index was> 40 were included in the present study. Patients' files were reviewed retrospectively. Those with diabetes mellitus and those with age <18 were excluded from the study. Pre-operative and 1-year post operative data were documented. The obtained data were analysed by SPSS statistical program.RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 27.4 ± 8.4. 5 of the patients were male, and 24 were female. The mean body mass index of the patients was 44 ± 2.3. 1 patient [3.4%] had hypertension. Four patients [13.7%] had gastroesophageal reflux disease. The number of smokers was 7 [24.1%], and the number of alcohol users was 3 [10.3%]. There was a statistically significant decrease in HbA1c, body mass index values after operation [p value <0.01], but cortisol was not different [p value = 0.72].CONCLUSION: In this present study we found that bariatric surgery caused a significant decrease in HbA1c levels in non-diabetic patients, suggesting that bariatric surgery may prevent Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in obese patients.

Abstract Background: Bariatric surgery is effective in weight reduction and diabetes remission. This study aimed to estimate direct medical costs and changes of comorbidities after bariatric surgery up to five years among obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: A population-based retrospective cohort of obese type 2 diabetes patients from Hong Kong Hospital Authority between 2006 and 2017 was assembled. One-to-five propensity score matching method was applied to match 401 eligible surgical patients with 1,894 non-surgical patients. Frequency of healthcare service utilization and dispense of diabetes medication were collected for both groups to estimate the direct medical costs from baseline to up to 60 months; Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and number of comorbidities were measured to compare the changes of comorbidities between two groups over the 5 years. Results: Direct medical costs were US$40,889 for surgical patients and US$6,163 for controls in the index year (p<0.001), with incremental costs of US$34,726. Bariatric surgery and hospitalization were the main cost drivers for surgical patients in the year of surgery. Although surgical patients had significantly lower annual costs than control patients in the subsequent four years, five-year cumulative costs incurred by surgical patients were significantly greater than controls (US$60,174 vs US$33,374, p<0.001), regardless of subgroups. Surgical patients had better profile of comorbidities than controls, as they had significantly lower CCI after baseline and fewer percentages of them proceeded to higher CCI categories. Conclusions: Over 5 years, bariatric surgery was associated with increased medical costs in the year of surgery and cumulative costs. Although bariatric surgery is not cost-saving for type 2 diabetes patients at 5 years, it is associated with improved comorbidity profile.

BACKGROUND: There is a debate over results obtained from type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) obese patients and non-DM2 patients, in reference to metabolic control and ponderal loss, after bariatric surgery. AIM: To evaluate weight loss and metabolic profile of obese patients with DM2 versus non-DM2 subjects, one and three years after bariatric surgery. METHODS: Data from 38 non-DM2 patients and 44 DM2 patients submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric-bypass were analysed retrospectively. For the pre-operatory, first and third year of post-operatory, were compared: weight, body mass index (BMI), fasting glucose (FG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and triglycerides (TG). RESULTS: Preoperatively, both groups were statistically equivalent in regards to weight, BMI (P = 0.90) and HDL (P = 0.73). This was not the case when TG (P = 0.043) and FG (P<0.01) were analyzed. In PO1, both DM2 and non-DM2 groups showed a reduction in weight, BMI and TG, just as FG in the DM2 group (P < 0.05). HDL increased (P < 0.05) in PO1 in both groups. In the following period, between PO1 and PO3, only TG continued to decrease in the non-DM2 group (P = 0.039), while the other variables did not change. In the DM2 group mean A1c in PO3 was 6.2% +- 0.75 (P = 0.027). It was compared both group's post-operative data. HDL's and TG's variation between groups did not differ in PO1 or between PO1 and PO3. Weight in PO1 and PO3, just as BMI in PO1 and PO3, were not significantly different either. CONCLUSION: In PO1, weight loss and metabolic improvement was seen in both groups. This was sustained in PO3, with no significant weight regain or lipid/FG change. A1c found suggests a reasonable control of DM2 surgery. A trend towards a less intense weight loss could be noticed in the DM2 group (P = 0.053).

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.

Introduction. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most important obesity-related comorbidities. This study was undertaken to characterise the effect of the biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) in morbidly obese and nonmorbidly obese diabetic patients.Methods. Outcome of 74 obese diabetic patients after BPD-DS and 16 non-obese diabetic patients after BPD or gastric bypass surgery was evaluated. Insulin usage, HbA1c-levels, and index of HOMA-IR (homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistence) were measured.Results. A substantial fraction of patients is free of insulin and shows an improved insulin sensitivity early after the operation, another fraction gets free of insulin in a 12-month period after the operation and a small fraction of long-term insulin users will not get free of insulin but nevertheless shows an improved metabolic status (less insulin needed, normal HbA1c-levels).Conclusion. BPD-DS leads to an improvement of T2DM in obese and non-obese patients. Nevertheless, more data is needed to clarify indications and mechanisms of action and to adjust our operation techniques to the needs of non-obese diabetic patients.

 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.
