AB  - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass 
      (LRYGB) for achieving type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission in patients with 
      body mass index (BMI) in the range of 25-35 kg/m(2). METHODS: Twenty-two 
      non-morbidly obese (BMI: 25-35 kg/m(2)) patients with T2DM underwent LRYGB. The 
      changes of BMI, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) 
      levels were recorded, and the prognostic factors were analyzed. RESULTS: All 
      these 22 patients successfully underwent LRYGB and were followed up for twelve 
      months. Two patients (9.1%) developed complications: one patient had an early 
      hemorrhage at the gastrojejunostomy site, and the other had frequent loose stools 
      that required revision surgery. At 12 months, 14 patients (63.6%) showed T2DM 
      remission, 6 (27.3%) showed glycemic control, and 2(9.1%) showed improvement. 
      Compared with the latter two groups, patients in the T2DM remission group had 
      significantly higher BMI (P=0.001), younger age (P=0.002), and shorter duration 
      of diabetes (P=0.001) before operation. CONCLUSIONS: LYRGB can efficiently and 
      safely treat T2DM in non-morbidly obese patients. Early intervention in these 
      patients may yield better outcomes.
