Abstract:
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common chronic diseases and public health problems. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) can rapidly, effectively and sustainably improve glycemic control in morbidly obese patients with T2DM. However, the mechanisms of glycemic control after RYGB are still unclear now. Duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB) is an improved RYGB sparing intact stomach, which is mainly used to investigate the mechanisms of RYGB to treat T2DM. DJB has also been used to treat non-obese T2DM patients. In the present article, we review the results and mechanisms of DJB to treat T2DM on the basis of the previous studies to further elucidate the mechanisms of RYGB in the management of T2DM.
