Abstract
Background The effects of diet-induced weight loss (WL) and WL after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery on β cell function (BCF) are unclear because of conflicting results from different studies, presumably because of differences in the methods used to measure BCF, the amount of WL between treatment groups, and baseline BCF. We evaluated the effect of WL after RYGB surgery or reduced energy intake alone on BCF in people with obesity with and without type 2 diabetes.Methods BCF (insulin secretion in relationship to plasma glucose) was assessed before and after glucose or mixed-meal ingestion before and after (a) progressive amounts (6%, 11%, 16%) of WL induced by a low-calorie diet (LCD) in people with obesity without diabetes, (b) ~20% WL after RYGB surgery or laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) in people with obesity without diabetes, and (c) ~20% WL after RYGB surgery or LCD alone in people with obesity and diabetes.Results Diet-induced progressive WL in people without diabetes progressively decreased BCF. Marked WL after LAGB or RYGB in people without diabetes did not alter BCF. Marked WL after LCD or RYGB in people with diabetes markedly increased BCF, without a difference between groups.Conclusion Marked WL increases BCF in people with obesity and diabetes but not in people with obesity without diabetes. The effect of RYGB-induced WL on BCF is not different from the effect of matched WL after LAGB or LCD alone.trial registration NCT00981500, NCT02207777, NCT01299519.Funding NIH grants R01 DK037948, P30 DK056341, P30 DK020579, UL1 TR002345.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
