Evaluation of Bariatric Surgery in remission
of Diabetes
Statement of Funds:
At our public tertiary teaching hospital and regional referral centre, the project will continue without any financial aid for affording class of patients.
2 Summary
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with severe long-term health
consequences. Its importance in the Indian setup is immeasurable. The medical management of Diabetes mellitus has long been the only means of its treatment.
Currently, bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for obesity and is indicated for patients with a BMI >40 kg/m2, or for individuals with a BMI >35 kg/m2 and significant obesity-related co-morbidities. In view of its favourable metabolic effects , bariatric surgery is also referred to as ‘‘metabolic surgery’’ and is advocated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes even in overweight individuals who do not meet the current BMI criteria . In the recent Diabetes Surgery Summit consensus conference, clinical trials to investigate the exact role of surgery in patients with less severe obesity and diabetes were considered a priority.
In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) who are also morbidly obese, an abundance of clinical evidence exists showing that significant clinical improvement in their diabetes occurs following certain types of bariatric, or weight loss, surgical procedures. There is additional data showing that bariatric surgical procedures that bypass the beginning of the small intestine, such as the Roux-en Y gastric bypass, can markedly improve type 2 diabetes even before significant weight loss has occurred.
Most often, improvement of the diabetes is seen within days of surgery. Various theories to explain this rapid change include calorie restriction and hormonal changes from exclusion of the upper gastro-intestinal tract. Weight loss accounts for the sustained improvements in glucose control. The patients who benefit the most are those who are early in their disease course. Having a single treatment for both obesity and T2DM is ideal. As bariatric surgery has become a safe operation when performed by experienced surgeons, it should be considered a treatment for these diseases. The impact it can have on the lives of individual patients and society as a whole is tremendous.
India being the global capital for diabetes, We take this opportunity to evaluate the impact of bariatric surgery in remission of diabetes.
3 Background:
Diabetes mellitus type 2 affects more than 150 million people worldwide. Although the incidence of complications of type 2 diabetes can be reduced with tight control of hyperglycemia, current therapies do not achieve a cure. Some operations for morbid obesity not only induce significant and lasting weight loss but also lead to improvements in or resolution of co morbid disease states, especially type 2 diabetes.
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes has markedly increased in the last decade worldwide, but in particular in Asian countries such as India and China, in strong correlation with a comparably steep increase in the prevalence of obesity. The primary risk factor for type 2 diabetes is obesity, and 90% of all patients with type 2 diabetes are overweight or obese.
In our study, we aim to evaluate with BMI ranging widely from 30-35 kg/m2 having Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in order to understand and evaluate the effect of Metabolic surgery in comparison with Routine Medical Management with Oral Hypoglycemic agents or Insulin.
The below mentioned Table shows results of Bariatric surgery and its effects on remission of diabetes

5 Hypothesis:
AIMS:
To study the results of surgery in treating Type 2 Diabetes mellitus in
obese ,severely obese and morbid obesity, pertaining to following parameters
1 Effect of different bariatric surgical modalities on remission of diabetes with respect to requirement of insulin or OHA
2 To evaluate for remission after surgery with respect to duration of DM
OBJECTIVES:
To conduct a prospective study design to evaluate the role of metabolic surgery in management of Type 2 Diabetes mellitus
Primary objective – Patients having complete remission of Diabetes mellitus
Secondary objective – Patients with partial remission reflected by decreased insulin or OHA requirements
6 Methods:
OBJECTIVES:
To conduct a prospective study design to evaluate the role of metabolic surgery in management of Type 2 Diabetes mellitus at tertiary teaching Hospital and regional referral centre.
Prospective Study of such patients over a period of one year will be based on clinical and laboratory parameters. Patients will be divided into two groups- one on medical treatment and one who have undergone surgery. A comparative study between these two groups to achieve the aims and objectives of the study would be done with 2 monthly follow up schedule as shown below. Later statistical analysis would be done.

LIMITATION
Although Hormone levels of Serum Ghrelin, GLP -1, PEPTIDE YY, CCK-PZ, Leptin and Adiponectin are required to be studied for a
Wholesome approach, due to cost factors and unavailability of the Investigations, these parameters are excluded from the study.

TYPES OF BARIATRIC AND METABOLIC SURGERIES TO BE OFFERED IN THE STUDY 1) Standard LAPAROSCOPIC SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY
2) Standard LAPAROSCOPIC GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY
3) Standard LAPAROSCOPIC GASTRIC MINI BYPASS SURGERY(SAGB)(Mini)
Laparoscopic Single Anastomosis Gastric Bypass-(SAGB)(Mini)
The Mini gastric bypass procedure was first developed by Dr Robert Rutledge from the USA in 1997, as a modification of the standard Billroth II procedure. Mini gastric bypass involves making of a long narrow tube of the stomach along its right border, the lesser curvature. A loop of the
9
small gut is brought up and hooked to this tube at about 180 cms from the start of the intestine (ligament of Treitz).
Numerous studies show that the loop reconstruction (Billroth II gastrojejunostomy) works more safely when placed low on the stomach, but can be a disaster when placed adjacent to the esophagus. Today thousands of "loops" are used for surgical procedures to treat gastric problems such as ulcers, stomach cancer, and injury to the stomach. The Mini gastric bypass uses the low set loop reconstruction and thus has rare chances of bile reflux.
The MGB has been suggested as an alternative to the Roux en-Y procedure due to the
simplicity of its construction, which reduces the challenges of Bariatric surgery. The surgery is becoming more and more popular because of low risk of complications and good sustained weight loss. It has been estimated that 15.4% of weight loss surgery in Asia is now performed via the MGB technique7
Diagnosis Criteria of diabetes:
The diagnosis of diabetes was based on the following American Diabetes Association criteria: FPG >126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L), or symptoms of diabetes plus random plasma glucose >200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L), or 2-h postload glucose >200 mg/dL during a 75-gm oral glucose tolerance test.
They were admitted, investigated and managed accordingly. Preoperative and postoperative complications were noted.
Diabetes outcomes classification:
Diabetes remission was defined as HbA1c <6% and FBS level of < 110mg/dl without use of any diabetes medications.
Criteria for reduction or withdrawal of diabetes medications:
Diabetes medications were titrated, with dosage decreased if fasting and postprandial glucose levels were <120 and <160mg/dL, respectively. Diabetes medications were discontinued if HbA1c levels remained 6%.
Selection of Surgical Modality:
The Type of Surgery adopted for each individual patient was decided
according to patient’s consent for their desired operation after duly explaining to them in detail about the procedure, its outcomes and complications.
