Objective: to analyze the effect of a nutritional intervention and of nutritional parameters on the clinical evolution of patients with stroke. Material and methods: this was an observational, retrospective study in 43 patients.

Efficacy in type 2 diabetes mellitus remission in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

Objectives: To assess remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after bariatric surgery, to analyze potential conditioning factors, and to compare Spanish and American remission criteria.
