Comparison of the Effectiveness of Four Bariatric Surgery Procedures in Obese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Retrospective Study

Figure 4

Impact of bariatric surgery on the evolution of diabetes in diabetic obese patients. (a) changes in serum HbA1c levels (mean ± SEM) observed in obese diabetic patients following each of the four different types of bariatric surgery. White columns represent serum HbA1c levels measured before surgery and grey toned columns represent the value measured one year after surgery. (b) Number of patients in whom remission of the diabetes was observed after bariatric surgery. White columns represent the total number of patients operated for each type of surgery. Grey toned zones show the number of patients in whom a remission of diabetes was observed. Gastric banding (GB), calibrated gastrectomy type Mason (CGMa), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). .
