Figure 2. Effects of omentectomy alone on insulin sensitivity and glucose effectiveness.

Figure 2

Insulin sensitivity (Si) and glucose effectiveness (Sg) were determined by using the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test and minimal model in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes (n=7) before and 3 months after laparoscopic omentectomy. Data for glucose effectiveness were log-transformed for analysis. Values are shown as means with 95% confidence intervals. There were no significant differences in Si (P=0.844) or Sg (P=0.663).
