Both surgeries affect the gut microbiota, but their contribution to T2D remission remains unclear. In this subanalysis (RYGB, n = 39; SG, n = 38) of the randomized controlled Oseberg trial ( NCT01778738 ), in which participants underwent either RYGB or SG surgery, we profiled the faecal microbiome of individuals with obesity and T2D before and 12 months after surgery. We show that both surgeries altered the microbiome in the same direction, but with larger changes after RYGB. The SG-associated altered microbiome composition correlated positively with circulating glucagon-like peptide 1 levels, beta-cell function and 5 year T2D remission. Remission was also linked to increased gene richness and metabolic potential for fermentation, methanogenesis and butyrate production. Notably, these associations persisted after accounting for the extent of weight loss. Our findings indicate that surgery-specific microbial adaptations influence metabolic improvements and may help to explain heterogeneity in T2D remission after bariatric surgery.31:T65b,Abstract Bariatric surgeries, such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG), improve obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D).

SG-associated microbiome composition correlated positively with circulating GLP-1 levels, beta-cell function, and 5-year T2D remission. Remission was linked to increased gut gene richness and greater metabolic potential for fermentation, methanogenesis, and butyrate production — associations that held after adjusting for degree of weight loss.","limitations":"- This is a subanalysis of a larger RCT, with 32 of 109 participants excluded due to missing fecal samples, risking selection bias.\n- No a priori power calculation was performed; the study was exploratory.\n- No sex-based analyses were conducted due to limited sample size, and the cohort was predominantly White.","practice_takeaway":"Surgery-specific gut microbiome changes — particularly increased gene richness and butyrate-producing capacity — are associated with T2D remission independent of weight loss, suggesting the microbiome may be a clinically meaningful target for predicting or enhancing bariatric outcomes. Clinicians should recognize that metabolic benefits of bariatric surgery, especially SG, may partly depend on microbial adaptations beyond weight reduction alone."}}],"initialOffset":1,"fetchConfig":{"kind":"tags","tags":[{"tag_type":"study_design","value":"Randomized Controlled Trial Subanalysis"}]},"breadcrumbItems":[{"name":"Home","href":"/"},{"name":"Research Hub","href":"/hub"},{"name":"Study Designs","href":"/hub/tag/study_design"},{"name":"Randomized Controlled Trial Subanalysis"}],"hrefConfig":{"basePath":"/hub/papers","webViewQueryParams":{"hub_ctx":"tag","hub_tag_type":"study_design","hub_tag_value":"Randomized Controlled Trial Subanalysis"}}}]]
