Methods:
In this cohort study of Taiwanese patients with BMI
above 25 who underwent metabolic surgery to ameliorate
T2DM between 2007 to 2013, 558 patients (339 young onset and
219 late onset T2DM patients) with minimum of one year
followup were included. Preoperative, peri-operative and post-
operative follow up clinical and laboratory data were prospect-
ively collected and compared between two groups. Diabetes
remission rate (HbA1c <6.0% without anti-glycemic medica-
tion) was primary outcome measure.
Results:
Young-onset patients had higher preoperative BMI
and HbA1c profiles than late-onset patients. Distribution of
surgical procedures and major complications were similar
between two groups. At one year, young onset group achieved
greater weight loss even though it was not statistically
significant. A higher complete diabetes remission rate was
observed in young onset patients (57.3% vs. 50.2%, p = 0.019). At
5-year, young-onset patients still maintained a higher weight
loss (11.8% versus 11.7%, p = 0.002) and higher remission rate
(65.3% versus 54.2%, p = 0.04) than late-onset patients. Age at
operation, duration of diabetes and C-peptide level were
independent predictors of diabetes remission. Remission rate
was directly related to extent of weight loss. Multivariate
analysis confirmed higher DM remission rates in young-onset
group.
Conclusion:
This report describes the largest, long-term study
examining metabolic surgery for young-onset diabetic
patients. Metabolic surgery may achieve better and more
durable glycemic control in selected young-onset than those
with late-onset T2DMpatients and early treatment is preferred.

Background:
Bariatric surgery has gained reputation for its
metaboliceffect and is increasinglybeingperformedtotreat type
2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, there is still a grey area
regarding the choice of surgical procedure according to patient
characteristics due to inadequate evidences. We aim to com-
pare the efficacy of two most commonly performed bariatric/
metabolic surgeries, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and gastric
bypass (GB) with regards to remission of T2DM after surgery.
Methods:
Outcomes of 579 (349 women and 230 male) patients
who underwent SG (109) or GB (470) for the treatment of T2DM
with one year follow-upwere assessed. The remission of T2DM
after SG or GB surgery was evaluated in matched groups using
the ABCD scoring system. The ABCD score is composed of the
age, BMI, C-peptide levels and duration of T2DM (years).
Results:
The weight loss of the SG patient at one year after
surgery was similar to the GB patients [26.3(1.1) % vs. 32.6(1.2)
%; p = 0.258]. The mean BMI decreased from 35.7(7.2) to 28.3
(3.7) Kg/m
2
in SG patients at one year after surgery and
decreased from 36.9(7.2) to 26.7(4.5) Kg/m
2
in the GB patients.
The mean HbA1c decreased from 8.8% to 6.1% of the SG group
and from 8.6% to 5.9% of the GB group. Sixty-one (56.0%)
patients of the SG group and 300 (63.8%) of the GB group
achieved complete remission of T2DM (HbA1c < 6.0%) at one
year after surgery without statistical difference. However, GB
exhibited significantly better glycemic control than the SG
surgery in groups stratified by different ABCD score. At 5-years
after surgery, GB had a better remission of T2DM than SG
(53.1% vs. 35.3%; p = 0.055).
Conclusions:
In conclusion, although both SG and GB are
effective metabolic surgery, GB carries a higher power on
T2DM remission than SG. ABCD score is useful in T2DMpatient
classification and selection for different procedures.

Background:
Mean absolute difference (MAD) is a numerical
accuracy measures which is defined as closeness between
continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and corresponding
in-time reference blood glucose (BG) measurements 1).
However, possible factor affected to MAD is not well docu-
mented so far 2).
Methods:
During May 2012 and March 2016, 55 diabetic
patients were unintentionally collected in a single institute
and consecutively recorded 96 CGMs with iPro2 (Medtronic
MiniMed, Northridge, CA) 2). Analyzed CGMs were assigned
to Term1 (n = 30), 2 (n = 29), and 3 (n = 30) by record starting day
[May-Dec 2012,-Nov 2013,-Mar 2016]. Among terms, patient
’
s
age, recoded duration days, sensored BG, effective calibration
times by metered BG reference were set as independent
variables and MAD was as dependent. Factorial ANOVA was
performed with SPSS Statistics version 22.0 (IBM, Chicago, IL).
Results:
Of consecutive 96 CGM recodings from 55 patients
(51.9+/
−
13.5 years old), 7 were excluded from this study due
not to assessed relative coeffficient (r) of MAD; 89 recordings,
type 1(45), type 2 (27), fulminant type 1 (13), tumor (insuli-
noma, etc) peri-operation (3), SPIDDM (1), were subjected to
this study. Of total 102,934 times sensored in 89 recordings
(1,156.6+/
−
439.9 times sensored per record), sensor BG was 9.5
+/
−
2.5 mmol/L, and effectively calibrated 1,706 times by meter
BG reference; MAD was 12.24+/
−
1.51%, r was 0.917+/
−
0.075.
Among three terms [T1, T2, vs T3], patient number was [30, 27,
vs 29], patient agewas [55.3+/

years old, and record duration was [4.1+/
−
0.4, 4.7+/
−
1.2, vs 6.7

0.7] days per recording. Sensored BG was [9.8+/
−
2.4, 9.9
+/
−
2.9, vs 8.7+/
−
1.9] mmol/L, which was calibrated effectively
in [14.7+/
−
3.3, 17.4+/
−
7.0, vs 25.4+/
−
5.5] times per recording;
MAD was [11.09+/
−
2.77, 11.61+/
−
2.97, vs 13.3+/
−
5.03] %, and
it

s r was [0.932+/
−
0.114, 0.923+/
−
0.240, vs 0.905+/
−
0.173].
Both sensored BG 3) and MAD were not statistically dif-
ferent throughout Terms, whereas patient was younger,
record duration was longer, and calibration was most frequent
in Term 3.
Discussion:
Former and no experience users was not dif-
ferent in MAD 4). Relationship between age and frequency of
discontinuation 5) was not investigated in this study; Patient
’
s
level of numeracy, literacy, and cognitive function, and poor
reimbursement was not investigated.
Conclusion:
MAD is not affected by patient
’
s numerical
characteristics; within favorable values during 4 years.
