Laparoscopic surgery for morbid obesity: 1,001 consecutive bariatric operations performed at The Bariatric Institute, Cleveland Clinic Florida.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The relationship between morbid obesity (MO) and insulin resistance (IR) has been widely demonstrated. The euglycemic-hyperglycemic clamp method for diagnosis of IR is neither practical nor cost-effective for population-based studies. However, the application of mathematical models (HOMA, QUICKI and Mf(fm) i...
