Type 2 diabetes often goes into remission following weight loss after bariatric surgery. Researchers investigated whether greater amounts of weight loss were associated with higher rates of disease remission.
For individuals undergoing bariatric surgery, the risk for mortality is increased for men versus women.
Remission of type 2 diabetes following bariatric surgery peaks at 20 percent total weight loss.
Researchers sought to identify variables associated with vascular improvement after bariatric surgery and determine how sex, race, and metabolic status are associated with vascular outcomes.
For individuals with class 1 obesity, bariatric surgery is effective for weight loss and comorbidity resolution.
Clinicians rarely discuss bariatric surgery with obese patients.
Researchers assessed how gut microbiota changes are associated with anthropometric, metabolic, and inflammatory profiles following metabolic surgery in adults with type 2 diabetes and mild obesity.
Researchers compared long-term survival outcomes of severely obese patients who underwent metabolic–bariatric surgery with those who received usual care.
A retrospective, population-based matched cohort study was conducted to assess the impact of bariatric surgery on mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes and severe obesity.
Investigators examined the effects of bariatric surgery on cancer risk in patients with NAFLD and severe obesity.
