Abstract
Purpose of Review
Morbid obesity and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are both major public health problems. Bariatric surgery is a proven and effective treatment for these conditions; laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is currently the gold-standard treatment. One-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is described as a simpler, safer, and non-inferior alternative to RYGB to treat morbid obesity. Concerning T2DM, experts of the OAGB procedure report promising metabolic results with good long-term remission of T2DM; however, heterogeneity within the literature prompted us to analyze this issue.
Recent Findings
OAGB has gained popularity given its safety and long-term efficacy. Concerning the effect of OAGB for the treatment of T2DM, most reports involve non-controlled single-arm studies with heterogeneous methodologies and a few randomized controlled trials. However, this available literature supports the efficacy of OAGB for remission of T2DM in obese and non-obese patients. Two years after OAGB, the T2DM remission and improvement rate increased from 67 to 100%. The results were improved and stable in the long term. The 5-year T2DM remission rate increased from 82 to 84.4%. OAGB is non-inferior compared with RYGB and even superior to other accepted bariatric procedures, such as sleeve gastrectomy and adjustable gastric banding.
Summary
OAGB is an efficient, safe, simple, and reversible procedure to treat T2DM. The literature reveals interesting results for T2DM remission in non-obese patients. High-level comparative studies are required to support these data.

Introduction
Morbid obesity and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are both major public health problems [1••]. Obesity is a major risk factor for T2DM. Globally, 90% of T2DM patients are overweight [2•, 3]. Bariatric surgery has been proven effective at treating these conditions [1••, 4,5,6,7, 8••]; it has high efficacy at achieving long-term remission of T2DM and provides sustainable weight loss [1••, 4, 6, 8••, 9]. Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is currently the gold-standard treatment [1••, 10, 11, 12••, 13–16, 54–59].
The immediate postoperative antidiabetic effect of RYGB is explained by reduced caloric intake within the first days after surgery, inducing upregulation of cell membrane insulin receptors, and duodenal exclusion, which results in neuro-hormonal signals and anti-incretin effects [10••, 11•, 12••]. Improved glucose tolerance is achieved by rapid entry of ingested nutrients into the distal small bowel, where L cells in the mucosa secrete incretin GLP-1 into the bloodstream. This effect leads to pancreatic beta cell hypertrophy and secretion of insulin. In long-term follow-ups, glycemic control is also associated with surgically induced weight loss [12••, 13,14,15]. At 1 year after surgery, Cummings et al. reported a 60% remission rate for T2DM (HbA1c < 6.0% without glucose-lowering drugs) after a RYGB [1••, 59], whereas Mingrone et al. reported a 42% remission rate (HbA1c < 6.5% without glucose-lowering drugs) at 5 years post-surgery [1••, 16].
Since 2001, mini-gastric bypass (i.e., one-anastomosis gastric bypass [OAGB]) has been described as an effective alternative to RYGB to treat morbid obesity and T2DM [17,18,19,20,21]. The significant glycemic control observed after OAGB is intuitively explained by the physiological similarities between these techniques, i.e., immediate postoperative reduction in caloric intake, durable weight loss, and duodenal bypass. Compared with a RYGB, the OAGB is technically simpler with only one omega-loop gastro-jejunal anastomosis [20, 22]. Numerous OAGB experts have reported promising metabolic results with significant remission rates for T2DM in the shorter and longer term [23••, 24, 25•, 26••, 27].
In 2011, the International Diabetes Federation stated that “simplicity” and “reversibility” of a metabolic procedure should be considered when treating T2DM [15]. These two technical characteristics are clearly met with the OAGB procedure. In contrast, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is irreversible and RYGB is technically more difficult to perform and to reverse. These factors associated with the promising results from treating morbid obesity prompted us to study the efficacy of OAGB to treat T2DM.
Review Method
A search of the literature on glycemic control and T2DM remission after an OAGB was performed using the MEDLINE database. The search included data from inception until April 2017. The search included both human and animal studies. The terms used were “mini-gastric bypass,” “single-anastomosis gastric bypass,” “one-anastomosis-gastric bypass,” “gastric bypass,” “omega-loop gastric bypass,” “diabetes,” and “type-2 diabetes mellitus.”
Results and Discussion
Glycemic Control After OAGB in Animals
Few reports on this topic were identified, and experimental OAGB models were only performed in rats [28••, 29]. The experimental literature showed that OAGB in rats improved the oral glucose tolerance test and glycemic control compared with a control group. Zubiaga et al. reported that the glucose tolerance test improved glycemic levels in rats with OAGB at all time periods (i.e., early 12 weeks; intermediate 16 weeks; later 20 weeks). Insulin levels were decreased significantly in all rats with OAGB, but glucagon levels paradoxically increased [28••]. GLP-1 and GIP increased in rats at all times but were only significantly different in the early group of GLP-1. Glycemic control after OAGB was independent of weight loss because all rats maintained their weight. This study reported surgically induced enhancement of pancreatic function mainly due to bypassing the duodenum, thus supporting Rubino’s theory that exclusion of the duodenum/proximal intestine and/or early entrance of food into the distal bowel improves glucose tolerance [12••, 13].
These experimental results in rats support the efficacy of OAGB to improve glycemic control. The consequent endocrinological effect after a proximal bowel bypass, as also found after bypass procedures in humans, produces substantial hormonal changes, including an increase in insulin-like growth factor-1 levels and decreases in leptin, insulin, and GIP levels even prior to body weight changes.
T2DM and OAGB in Humans
OAGB has gained popularity over the past few years given its safety and long-term efficacy [30, 31]. Concerning the available literature, OAGB appears to be non-inferior and potentially superior to other accepted bariatric procedures [32, 33, 34•]. OAGB is a particularly promising method for metabolic and anti-diabetic surgery. OAGB is simpler to perform than the gold-standard RYGB, with a shorter learning curve and easier reversal (if required) [35]. These criteria match the International Diabetes Federation definition for an appropriate metabolic surgical procedure.
Single-Arm OAGB Studies
A systematic review of non-controlled single-arm studies reported that OAGB was efficient and significantly improved T2DM in all reviewed studies [17, 18, 23••, 24, 25•, 27, 36, 37, 38••, 39, 40,41,42, 43, 44, 45]. Two years after OAGB, the T2DM remission or improvement rate increased from 67 to 100% [17, 18, 23••, 24, 25•, 27, 36, 37, 38••, 39, 40,41,42, 43, 44, 45, 46••, 47•]. Guenzi et al. [45] reported 82.5% T2DM control with a HbA1c < 6.5% after a mean follow-up of 26 months. The results improved over time and were stable over the long term. The 5-year T2DM remission rate increased from 82 to 84.4% [46••]. Carbajo et al. [38••] published a retrospective series in 2016 on 1200 OAGB patients with a long follow-up that exceeded 10 years. In the global series, they reported remarkable results with a 94% remission rate and a 6% improvement rate for T2DM. Due to a lack of published data, we do not know the specific remission rate for patients with greater than 10 years of follow-up, but Carbajo et al. concluded that both T2DM and impaired fasting glucose could be resolved or at least ameliorated.
More recently, Taha et al. [47•] published a study in 2017 on a retrospective series of 1520 OAGB patients, including 683 (44.9%) diabetic patients with a mean preoperative HbA1c of 9.6 ± 1.3%. In total, 472 patients were followed for 1 year and 361 patients were followed for 3 years. Mean postoperative HbA1c decreased by 5.7 ± 1.5 and 5.8 ± 0.9% at 1 and 3 years, respectively. Complete remission of T2DM was achieved in 397/472 (84.1%) patients. In contrast, 37 (7.8%) patients achieved partial remission and 33 (7%) experienced disease improvement.
All these promising results support the efficacy of OAGB to increase remission of T2DM in obese patients, but the major limitations of these studies are the low levels of evidence and the heterogeneous definitions used for T2DM remission and improvement given that some authors did not clearly report the methodology used to assess HbA1C levels.
OAGB Compared with RYGB
Only one controlled randomized trial has been published that compares OAGB with RYGB at 2 years [20]. The study did not identify any difference in metabolic syndrome remission at 2 years after an OAGB or a RYGB. After 5 years of follow-up, the same authors reported on a comparative but not randomized study, revealing enhanced remission of metabolic syndrome in the OAGB group [21]. These promising data were confirmed by a meta-analysis conducted by Quan et al. [46••]. An improved remission rate for T2DM after OAGB (93 vs. 77.6% for RYGB; p = 0.006) was reported [46••]. Once again, these results demonstrate the legitimacy of using OAGB to treat T2DM. In addition, OAGB is not inferior and is probably superior to the present gold-standard procedure.
OAGB Compared with Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding
Quan et al. [46••] conducted a meta-analysis on OAGB versus laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and found a “marginally” higher remission rate for T2DM with OAGB compared with LAGB. However, only two studies were included in this meta-analysis and the heterogeneity of the data could have explained these conclusions. For experts of OAGB [18, 23••, 25•, 41], the long-term remission rates are clearly superior after OAGB compared with those of LAGB.
OAGB Compared with Sleeve Gastrectomy
Quan et al. reported better remission rates for T2DM after OAGB in their meta-analysis compared with SG in four significant studies (89 versus 76%, p = 0.0004) [46••]. Lee et al. reported a significantly reduced HbA1c at 5 years after OAGB compared with SG in a randomized prospective study [48•]. Moreover, Kular et al. reported a significantly better 5-year T2DM remission rate after OAGB (92 vs. 81%, P < 0.05) [49]. Musella et al. [26••] published an important multicenter European audit on 206 cases of T2DM in obese patients. At 1 year, OAGB was associated with significantly superior weight loss (p < 0.001) and T2DM remission compared with SG (85.4 vs. 60.9%; p < 0.001). In their conclusion, OAGB was a positive predictor for diabetes remission and significantly outperformed SG. Moreover, high baseline HbA1c, preoperative consumption of insulin or oral antidiabetic therapy, and T2DM duration > 10 years were negative factors [26••].
More recently, time until glycemic control postoperatively was investigated in a comparative observational study of bariatric surgeries led by Celik al. [50]. This study included 251 diabetic patients with a mean BMI of ≥ 30 kg/m2 and T2DM for ≥ 3 years, HBA1C > 7% for ≥ 3 months, and no significant weight change (> 3%) within the prior 3 months. Glycemic control (< 126 mg/dL) was obtained in the group that underwent a diverted SG with an ileal transposition on day 29 and those who underwent a mini-gastric bypass (or OAGB) on day 30. Patients with an SG did not achieve the target level within postoperative 30 days.
OAGB for Diabetic Patients with a BMI of < 35 kg/m2
According to Garcia et al. [51], an OAGB leads to resolution or improvement of T2DM in non-obese normal-weight patients. The best results were obtained for patients who have had diabetes for a few years without or with short-term use of insulin treatment and high C-peptide levels.
Moreover, a 7-year retrospective study reported by Kular et al. [52] demonstrated that OAGB provides good long-term control of T2DM in patients with class-I obesity (BMI < 35 kg/m2). The mean preoperative HbA1C level was 10.7%. After 1, 3, 5, and 7 years, mean HbA1C levels were 6.2, 5.4, 5.8, and 5.7, respectively. Although 22% of patients were using insulin preoperatively, none required insulin postoperatively for up to 7 years. Fasting C-peptide levels increased from 1.6 ng/mL prior to surgery to 2 ng/mL after surgery, and the post-prandial C-peptide concentration increased from 3.4 to 4.7 ng/mL, suggesting that OAGB improves beta cell function.
Conclusion
Despite the heterogeneity and the low level of evidence in the literature, OAGB appears to be a promising option for treating type-2 diabetes in obese and non-obese patients. Based on analyses of the available data with a low number of controlled randomized trial, OAGB represents a non-inferior (probably superior) and simpler alternative to the gold-standard treatment (RYGB) and interestingly seems to be superior to other accepted bariatric procedures, such as SG and LAGB, in treating type-2 diabetes.
These good results for weight loss and remission of T2DM can explain why OAGB is gaining popularity within the bariatric community. Although its metabolic efficacy cannot be analyzed separately from surgical risk (morbidity, mortality) and the benefit-risk balance, OAGB appears to be safer than RYGB during the postoperative course with a lower morbidity rate [20, 35].
Over the mid- to long-term, OAGB experts have reported low morbidity rates [20, 21, 23••, 25•, 40, 41]. However, a major controversy remains regarding the long-term theoretical risk of developing biliary reflux because the omega loop can induce direct passage of biliopancreatic juices into the gastric tube and perhaps the esophagus [53]. Despite this, no rigorous scientific study in human has analyzed prospectively biliary reflux and its attendant possible complications, such as esogastric cancer. To date, four cases of cancer secondary to OAGB have been reported: three were in the excluded stomach (unrelated to the surgical montage) and one was in the gastric pouch at several years after an “omega loop gastric bypass” (probably an old “Mason” gastric bypass) [53]. Because of the lack of reported incidence rates, it is not possible to draw firm conclusions regarding the imputability of biliary reflux. Other cases of cancer have been diagnosed after all bariatric surgical procedures such as sleeve gastrectomy (n = 1), gastric banding (n = 4), vertical-banded gastroplasty (n = 9), and RYGB (n = 14) [53]. An experimental study in obese rats that had undergone an OAGB did not show any pre-cancerous or cancerous lesions with unchanged expression of Barrett’s esophagus or esogastric carcinogenic-specific genes in the esophageal and gastric mucosae 4 months after surgery [29].
Given its promising metabolic results with the associated technical advantages and postoperative safety, it is now clear that OAGB will be recognized as a valid procedure and will be accepted worldwide when the question over biliary reflux is resolved by high-level and comparative studies. To date, no acceptable estimation of this risk (and its potential complications on the gastric and esophageal mucosa) has been established and an answer to this controversial issue is needed urgently.
Finally, as recommended by the International Diabetes Federation, a good metabolic procedure must be reversible and, once again, OAGB fits this need. OAGB is reversible by laparoscopy (while a sleeve gastrectomy is not reversible) and is easier to reverse compared to a RYGB.
In conclusion, OAGB is an efficient, safe, simple, and reversible procedure to treat type-2 diabetes mellitus and morbid obesity. The literature presents interesting results for remission of type-2 diabetes in non-obese patients. High-level comparative studies are required to support these data and eliminate doubts that remain concerning the long-term theoretical risk of biliary reflux.
