These benefits occur in the majority of patients who undergo surgery")

Med. 346:1623-1630 ("If circulating ghrelin participates in long-term regulation of body weight, its level should increase with weight loss as part of the compensatory response to an energy deficit. In contrast, gastric bypass may disrupt ghrelin secretion by isolating ghrelin-producing cells from direct contact with ingested nutrients, which normally regulate ghrelin levels, and this effect may contribute to the efficacy of the procedure in reducing weight")

Nutrition, Metabolism, & Cardiovascular Diseases 19:198-204 ("Both BIBP [biliary intestinal bypass] and LAGB [laporoscopic gastric binding] were highly effective in reducing BMI, with BIBP superior to LAGB in reducing FM [fat mass] but not FFM [fat free mass]. Metabolic effects were mostly proportional to FM decrease but not to FFM decrease")

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism" 88(7):3177-3183 ("Ghrelin levels in rats have been reported to be 80% lower after fundectomy and gastrectomy, and gastrectomy patients experienced a 65% decrease, demonstrating the stomach as the major source of circulating ghrelin. A recent study reported that ghrelin levels were lower in five gastric bypass surgery patients than in five BMI-matched obese subjects, who had completed a 6-month dietary weight loss program. The low levels of ghrelin in the five RYGBP patients made the authors suggest that the disconnection of the stomach had led to hypoghrelinemia and speculate that the hypoghrelinemia would lessen appetite and improve the outcome of RYGBP")

Conversely Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) maintains a weight loss of ~33% of body weight for >10 years, a result associated with normalization of glucose levels in patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and type 2 diabetes, in the vast majority of the cases")
