About
Gastric bypass (GBP) and laparoscopic adjustable banding (AGB) are common procedures that can result in significant weight loss and significantly improve type 2 diabetes in 40-80% of cases. The mechanism and time course of these changes have not been well studied and are poorly understood. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the potential weight-independent mechanisms of diabetes remission after GBP, by comparing GBP and AGB subjects after similar weight loss.
Full description
All participants will be tested before and then after 10 and 20-30% weight loss after either GBP or AGB surgery. Subjects will undergo an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) an isoglycemic intravenous glucose test (IVGT) to assess the incretin effect, a measure of insulin sensitivity by an intravenous insulin sensitivity test (IVGTT) and body composition measurements.
