Core Tip

Core Tip: Obesity and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) incidence are currently increasing, and these afflictions have become important global health issues. Bariatric surgery is safe and effective for treating obesity and T2DM. The precise processes associated with this treatment, however, are somewhat unclear. Here, we review associated findings with respect to gastrointestinal hormones, intestinal microbiota, bile acids, and adipokines involved in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (the most popular bariatric surgery) of T2DM patients.
