Abstract
Metabolic dysregulation is a defining characteristic of type 2 diabetes, which can give rise to microvascular complications—specifically retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Increasing evidence exists from prospective studies, cases series, and national registries to show that bariatric or metabolic surgery ameliorates hyperglycaemia in people with diabetes and prevents, delays, or improves obesity-associated complications.1–3 Yet, scarce evidence exists to show the effects of surgery in patients who have not yet reached the hyperglycaemic threshold used to define diabetes.
