Role of gastric bypass surgery in control of blood sugar in obese uncontrolled type 2 diabetic patients.
Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome 2024 Februrary 20
BACKGROUND AND GOAL: The pandemic of the twenty-first century is diabetes. Both type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity pose severe problems for public health. Despite significant improvements in diagnosing and managing both conditions, diabetes mellitus remains poorly controlled, and diabetic complications are more common than ever. Internists have discovered over the past 20 years that obese people with type 2 diabetes who have gastric bypass surgery to shed weight have improved glycemic control. Thus, interventional diabetology has a growing significance in patients' ability to reverse type 2 diabetes mellitus. We want to evaluate the impact of gastric bypass on blood sugar regulation and look for potential causes.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between 2018 and 2020, a prospective interventional study was carried out. Ninety patients in total were enrolled in the trial. The two patient groups (A and B) contained 45 obese T2DM patients with a body mass index (BMI) of over 35 kg/m2 . Group B received its antidiabetic medications, either oral hypoglycemic or insulin, while Group A underwent gastric bypass surgery. Each patient underwent a comprehensive history review and clinical assessment. Both groups had their HA1c and blood sugar levels measured; group A had their insulin, GLP-1, and HOMA-IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance) levels calculated at time O and one year later.
RESULTS: The demographic differences between the two study groups were negligible. After a one-year follow-up, group A had significantly lower anthropometric measurement data for BMI and waist circumference (cm), lipid profile data for triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL levels, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c, two metrics of glucose metabolism, significantly decreased in group A. Regarding indicators of glucose metabolism, there was a drop in fasting insulin level and HOMA-IR and an increase in GLP1 level in the gastric bypass group.
CONCLUSION: As a result of improving all indicators, gastric bypass is an effective treatment for patients with uncontrolled T2DM. Future research that is confirmed is needed.
