Glucose Metabolism in the Immediate and Short Term Follow up After Bariatric Surgery

MIDAS involves an assessment of glucose levels obtained before and after bariatric surgery. There are two different procedural tests involved; an oral glucose tolerance test (mixed meal) and a hyperglycemic clamp test. Two tests are performed preoperatively and five more are performed postoperatively for a one year period. The associated labwork drawn with the mixed meal and clamp tests are demonstrating changes in glucose, insulin and gut hormone levels.

Treatment and study plan

Mixed Meal Tolerance test, Hyperglycemic clamp

Procedure

Subjects undergo a standard mixed meal tolerance test & hyperglycemic clamp to assess insulin secretion & sensitivity (whole body glucose disposal) pre-op. Following surgery, at 1week, 1 month, 6 months and 12 months subjects will undergo hyperglycemic clamp & mixed meal tolerance test. During these tests, measurements will include plasma levels of glucose, insulin, C-peptide, free fatty acid levels and adipocyte hormone profile (adiponectin, leptin, resistin). A gut hormone profile (ghrelin, glucagons-like-peptide 1 GLP-1, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide GIP, PYY) will be performed at fasting & specific postprandial times. Results will be compared between two groups: patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass & gastric banding.

Other names: MMTT

Primary outcomes

  1. To assess the effect of gastric by-pass surgery to decrease lipotoxicity.

    Time frame: One year

Secondary outcomes

  1. To examine the effect of roux-en-Y compared to gastric banding on pancreatic B cell recovery or insulin secretion in response to oral and IV glucose.

    Time frame: One Year
