Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Remission in Obese Patients Under Bariatric Surgery: The Role of Preoperative Triglycerides Levels

摘要

Background: There is abundant evidence reporting the relationship between triglycerides levels and type 2 diabetes mellitus, however few studies confirmed the influence of triglycerides levels on the incidence of diabetes. Bariatric surgery may lead to the remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus, but the effect of basal serum triglycerides levels on this reversal is unknown. This study aimed to assess the association between preoperative triglycerides levels and pre- and type 2 diabetes mellitus remission in obese patients one year after bariatric surgery.
