Effects of Esophagectomy on Weight Loss and Glycolipid Profile in Type 2 Diabetes Patients

Esophagectomy induces weight loss and improves glucose and lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetes patients. Both diabetic and non-diabetic groups experience similar reductions in weight and BMI post-surgery. Fasting plasma glucose levels decrease significantly in the diabetic group, while HDL levels increase in the non-diabetic group. TG, LDL, and TC levels decrease significantly in both groups. Further research is needed to understand the underlying mechanisms of these changes.
