Resum:
Introduction: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for patients who have morbid obesity and who comply with the criteria established to be eligible for treatment. Studies have shown that ghrelin is an important factor in regulating intake, and this has led to further studies into ghrelin levels and the various bariatric surgical techniques, because most grelin is synthesized in the gastric fundus. We should point out that sleeve gastrectomy involves the exeresis of almost the entire gastric fundus, which means that the ghrelin levels should theoretically be low after the intervention. Such good weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy may be partly due to the sudden decrease in ghrelin, which would clearly decrease intake. Sleeve gastrectomy and the metabolic implications of surgical intervention would be reflected in variations in the plasma levels of ghrelin, GLP-1, insulin and glycaemia, as well as changes in weight and calorie intake, which would depend on the physiopathological situations in which the surgical intervention takes place.These situations are: 1. Non-obese situations. 2. Exogenous obesity due to excessive calorie intake. 3. Genetically determined obesity. 4. Genetically determined obesity and type 2 diabetis mellitus.Aims: To analyse the effect of sleeve gastrectomy on weight for each experimental model. To analyse the effect of sleeve gastrectomy on intake volume for each experimental model and its relation to weight change. To analyse the effect of sleeve gastrectomy on glycaemia levels for each experimental model and its relation to weight change and intake volume. To analyse the effect of sleeve gastrectomy on levels of ghrelin, GLP-1 and plasma insulin for each experimental model.Methods: Sleeve gastrectomy in the various experimental mod
