Evaluation of hormonal and circulating inflammatory biomarker profiles in the year following bariatric surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bariatric surgery (BS) has a superior effect on reducing body weight and fat in patients with morbid obesity. As a result, BS mitigates obesity-related complications such as type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, few studies have shown the mechanism underlying diabetes remission after surgery. This study aimed to investigate the differences in serum hormone and inflammatory cytokine levels related to diabetes before surgery and during 12 months of follow-up in Korean patients with obesity.

Methods

The study participants were patients with morbid obesity (n=63) who underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) between 2016 - 2017 at seven tertiary hospitals in Korea. The patients were followed for 1 year after surgery.
