Bariatric surgery-induced weight loss in patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Surgical treatment of obesity leads to weight loss and metabolic improvement, but it is unclear if the response differs between patients with and without type 2 diabetes. Retrospective cohort study comparing weight loss and metabolic outcomes between patients with and without type 2 diabetes, matched for body mass index (BMI), gender and age, 12 months after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Forty-eight patients with type 2 diabetes (D) and 48 without type 2 diabetes (ND) were evaluated, 87.
