Popis: Background Intestinal microbiota have been suggested to play an important role in the pathogenesis of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Bariatric surgery improves both conditions and has been associated with changes in intestinal microbiota composition. We investigated the effect of a nonsurgical bariatric technique on intestinal microbiota composition in relation to metabolic improvement.Methods Seventeen patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes were treated with the nonsurgical duodenal-jejunal bypass liner, which excludes the proximal 60 cm small intestine from food. Fecal samples as well as metabolic parameters reflecting obesity and type 2 diabetes were obtained from the patients at baseline, after 6 months with the device in situ, and 6 months after explantation.Results After 6 months of treatment, both obesity and type 2 diabetes had improved with a decrease in weight from 106.1 [99.4-123.5] to 97.4 [89.4-114.0] kg and a decrease in HbA(1c) from 8.5% [7.6-9.2] to 7.2% [6.3-8.1] (both p Conclusion Improvement of obesity and type 2 diabetes after exclusion of the proximal 60 cm small intestine by treatment with a nonsurgical duodenal-jejunal bypass liner may be promoted by changes in fecal microbiota composition.
