Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

60 patients scheduled for bariatric surgery will be included into 3 categories (20 patients with non complicated obesity, 20 patients with metabolic syndrome and 20 patients with a type 2 diabetes or hypertension). 20 volunteers will be enrolled as normal referents. The patients and the volunteers will have a classical pre-operative check-up (fibroscopy, oesophageal pHmetry and manometry) and extra investigations as isotopic gastric empty exam, lactulose oro-caecal transit exam, intestinal permeability test calculated by lactulose-manitol ratio urinary excretion. Intestinal and colonic biopsies will be also provided for studying permeability. For only patients, samples from the gastric resection will be provided for analysing the enteric nervous system and motricity.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: Digestive functions investigations

Results from digestive functions investigations will be compared between patients eligible for bariatric surgery (BMI>40kg/m2) and volunteers (BMI between 20 and 25kg/m2).

Other: Digestive functions investigations

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. T1/2 solids (on the kinetic of isotopic gastric empty exam) [6 months]

    This evaluation will be obtained before bariatric surgery for patients and at any time before end of study for volunteers.
