Serum ceramides could predict durable diabetes remission following gastric bypass surgery
Abstract
Morbid obesity is a major risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). One strategy to both lose weight and counteract T2D is bariatric surgery (RYGB). In a study published in this issue of Med, Poss et al. revealed that circulating ceramides could predict the durability of T2D remission independently of weight loss following RYGB.
