Our data show that at 12 months after surgery, SG is as effective as GBP in inducing remission of T2DM and the MS. Furthermore, our data suggest that SG and GBP represent a successful an integrated strategy for the management of the different cardiovascular risk components of the MS in subjects with T2DM.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and SG are associated with comparable remission rates of T2DM. However, insufficient weight loss or weight regain in those with a more advanced disease may hamper the benefits of these surgical techniques on T2DM.

The data show that in a cohort of morbidly obese T2DM subjects, SG and RYGBP are associated with an early improvement in glucose tolerance, similar changes in insulin and glucagon secretion, and a similar GLP-1, GIP, and GLP-2 response to a standardized mixed liquid meal.

Our study underscores the value of protein supplementation for the achievement of the recommended daily protein intake in the bariatric patient. However, our data does not help to define a PI goal as critical in determining the FFM and protein status changes following LGBP or LSG.

Weight loss's beneficial effects on SF occurring after BS are beyond the parallel improvement in gonadal and metabolic profiles.

Our data indicate that some of the characteristics that would have subjects referred early for BS were associated with higher weight loss. Therefore, the timing of laparoscopic BS might be an important factor for MO individuals in which medical weight loss intervention has failed.
