Bariatric Surgery versus Conventional Medical Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes

TL;DR: In severely obese patients with type 2 diabetes, bariatric surgery resulted in better glucose control than did medical therapy and preoperative BMI and weight loss did not predict the improvement in hyperglycemia after these procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bariatric surgery versus non-surgical treatment for obesity: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials

TL;DR: Compared with non-surgical treatment of obesity, bariatric surgery leads to greater body weight loss and higher remission rates of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome and greater improvements in quality of life and reductions in medicine use.
Journal ArticleDOI
