| Abstract: | Nine morbidly obese subjects were studied with a test meal before and 3 months after a gastric partitioning operation. After the operation the postprandial release of plasma gastric inhibitory polypeptide was significantly increased, the plasma pancreatic polypeptide release was similar, and the serum insulin release significantly reduced as compared with the preoperative values. |
