Key result
Bariatric surgery improved insulin sensitivity within 1 week independent of caloric intake, with RYGB and LAGB leading to 5.5 kg and 5.2 kg weight loss vs 2.1 kg with very low caloric intake alone.

Bariatric surgery may improve early insulin sensitivity beyond caloric restriction in nondiabetic obesity; leaves open confirmation in randomized trials.

Does bariatric surgery (LAGB or RYGB) improve insulin sensitivity independently of caloric restriction in nondiabetic obese subjects?
Bariatric surgery, particularly Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, improves insulin sensitivity within 1 week independently of caloric restriction in nondiabetic obese subjects.
Gastaldelli et al. (2016) conducted a cohort in Nondiabetic obesity (n=20). Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) vs. Very low caloric intake (VLCI) was evaluated on Insulin sensitivity (IS) and insulin secretion (ISR). Bariatric surgery improved insulin sensitivity within 1 week independent of caloric intake, with RYGB and LAGB leading to 5.5 kg and 5.2 kg weight loss vs 2.1 kg with very low caloric intake alone.
