Ileal interposition coupled with duodenal diverted sleeve gastrectomy versus standard medical treatment in type 2 diabetes mellitus obese patients: long-term results of a case-control study
Abstract
Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that bariatric surgery is effective in obtaining remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in obese patients, yet no data exist in the literature from prospective studies with ileal interposition with duodenal diversion sleeve gastrectomy (II-DD-SG). The aim of this case-control study is to investigate if II-DD-SG is superior to medical treatment in T2DM obese patients. Thirty obese patients (BMI > 30) affected by T2DM were recruited for surgery (II-DD-SG) between 2008 and 2011 and were matched with an equal control group which received standard medical treatment. Anthropometric measures, glucose metabolism, cardiovascular risk factors were determined baseline and during follow-up. The primary end point was T2DM remission; reduction of body weight, BMI, and cardiovascular risk factors were secondary end-points. Shortly after II-DD-SG, normalization of glucose plasma levels and glycated hemoglobin was observed followed by a significant decrease in body weight and BMI. At one-year follow-up, insulin resistance strongly declined as did insulin plasma levels. Complete remission was observed in 26 patients (86%); 2 (6.6%) had partial remission, and two (6.6%) were still diabetic. Aft...Continue Reading

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology
Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.
