Abstract

Objectives: In this study it is proposed to analyse the effect of bariatric metabolic surgery on diabetes remission in obese type 2 diabetic patients compared to conventionally treated similar patients.

Methods: A retrospective review, of prospectively collected data base of conventionally treated group and metabolic group were screened from the year 2010-2013 at the study centre for patients satisfying the inclusion criteria. Three follow up data at an interval of three months and a base line value for both group were collected. Primary outcome measures the percentage of patient achieved diabetes remission, i.e. glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c)<6 % without active pharmacological therapy at one year and percentage of patients who achieved excess weight loss more than 60 % at one year.

Secondary outcome includes percentage reduction in medication use. Statistics used in the study is student‘t' test, Chi-square and ANOA (Analysis of Variance). The treatment effects were found to be significant to the least significant difference (LSD) at 5% level of significance.

Results: The patients underwent bariatric surgery had a significant improvement in glycemic status (HbA1c<6 %). In conventionally treated group less than 5% achieved HbA1c less than 6.5 % level with active pharmacological therapy. There was an increased use of antidiabetic medication with 2-5% increase in mean body weight in conventional group.

Conclusion: Compared to conventional therapy bariatric surgery markedly improves diabetes and results in discontinuation or marked reduction of anti-diabetic medications in majority of patients treated. So bariatric surgery seems to be a better option for the obese diabetic patients.
