Taiwan Diabesity Study:Comparison With Mild Obese T2DM Patients Who Under Metabolic Surgery

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Jun 2014 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

T2DM has become a major health burden for our society. More and more data support the relative effectiveness of gastrointestinal metabolic surgery, known as bariatric surgery, in the remission of T2DM of BMI less35. The metabolic surgery guidelines of IDF recommend BMI over 27.5 in Asia. The evidence reviewed above strongly points to the need for a large randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the risks and benefits of obesity surgery in the treatment of type 2 diabetes Mellitus. This study is expected to provide very significant findings about the natural course of diabetes in obese diabetic patients.
