Abstract
Obesity significantly increases the risk of developing metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. The most effective management tool for both obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) is bariatric/metabolic surgery. Delayed postprandial plasma triglyceride clearance contributes to the development of atherosclerosis in patients with T2D. Biliopancreatic diversion (BPD) was shown to be the most effective procedure in long-term T2D remission. However, the effect of BPD on postprandial metabolic profile has not been studied so far. In this pilot study, we therefore examined the changes in postprandial glucose, insulin, and triglyceride in women with severe obesity and T2D before surgery and then two and ten years after BPD. The studied cohort included 7 women (mean age at baseline=49.3±8.2 years) with severe obesity (mean BMI= 45.7±2.9 kg/m²) and T2D. A standardized liquid mixed-meal test was carried out in all subjects and the mean postprandial levels of plasma glucose, insulin, and triglyceride were analyzed by standard laboratory procedures. For statistical evaluation, ANOVA with Bonferroni multiple comparisons was used. Ten years after BPD not only a significant reduction of an average BMI (F=32.9, p<0.001) but also significant declines in mean postprandial plasma levels of glucose (F=155.3, p<0.001), insulin (F=69.8, p<0.001), and triglyceride (F=139.9, p<0.001) were demonstrated. The observed changes in postprandial metabolic profile may contribute to improved cardiometabolic health after bariatric surgery.
