Abstract
Sleeve gastrectomy improves glucose metabolism as effective as Roux-en Y gastric bypass. The underlying mechanism is still not clear. We hypothesized that inhibition of GOAT activity was one therapeutic consequence of SG, and a status of low ghrelin level with low AG: UAG ratio might be an optimal gastrointestinal hormone profile for the remission of T2DM.Entities:
