A 150-cm BPL length is adequate with very minimal nutritional complications and good results. A 180-cm BPL can be used in super obese while a 250-cm BPL should be used with utmost care as it results in significant nutritional deficiencies.

In our study, there was no significant difference between LSG and OAGB in outcome at 1 year follow-up in % excess weight loss, remission of HTN, and quality of life. OAGB has marginally better outcome in T2 DM remission. However, a longer follow-up is required to establish a correct comparative result.

In our study, at 36 months follow up, there was no significant difference between LSG and MGB-OAGB in %EWL and remission of HTN. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission rates were higher after MGB-OAGB as compared to LSG but the difference was statistically insignificant. MGB-OAGB patients with comorbidities have a better quality of life and BAROS score compared to LSG patients.

Among the three scoring systems, though DiaRem score has the best sensitivity and specificity and maximum AUC, no statistically significant difference was found in their diabetes remission predicting abilities. A shorter duration of T2DM, a lower HbA1C, and higher levels of C-peptide were significantly associated with a higher chance of T2DM remission.
