Figure 1.
Effect of bariatric surgery on HbA1c and DI in subjects with short vs. long-duration type 2 diabetes. Change in HbA1c (A), 1st phase DI (B), and 2nd phase DI (C) from baseline to 24 months post-surgery. Compared with baseline, *p=0.04 and ^p=0.01. DI = disposition index (meal-stimulated insulin secretion rate [iAUC C-peptide/iAUC Glucose] multiplied by insulin sensitivity).
