Figure 4

Plasma concentrations of ghrelin and desacyl ghrelin were significantly elevated by fasting. Plasma concentrations of ghrelin ((a), (c)) and desacyl ghrelin ((b), (d)) under fed condition and after 48 hour fasting in B-II group ((a), (b)) and R-Y group ((c), (d)) at 12th postoperative week. Concentrations of ghrelin and desacyl ghrelin were determined by ELISA. for B-II and 11 for R-Y. 𝑃 < . 0 5 : 𝑃 < . 0 5 .
