Abstract: We thank Dr. Pontiroli, and agree with his commentary (1). Dr. Pontiroli provides an interesting observation regarding change in β-cell function following weight loss by gastric banding in subjects with type 2 diabetes. His data show minimal improvement in insulin release, as assessed by the Δinsulin/Δglucose during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), but a significant improvement in insulin sensitivity by homeostasis model assessment, 18 months after gastric banding (1,2). In our study …
