In patients with type 2 diabetes, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), which excludes a portion of the stomach and the proximal intestine from the alimentary circuit, improves glucose metabolism more rapidly and more extensively than is expected from weight loss. The mechanisms of this unique effect of gastrointestinal exclusion appear to be complex and have not yet been clarified. A recent study unveil that intestinal uptake of ingested glucose is diminished by RYGB and restricted to the common limb, where food meets bile and other digestive fluids, resulting in an overall decrease of post prandial blood glucose excursion. the hypothesize that reducing the length of the common limb, which is rarely measured and highly variable in clinical practice, may significantly affect the metabolic outcome of gastrointestinal surgical procedures. The aim of the present study is to compare the impact of two variants of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass with a short common limb, the long alimentary limb or the long biliary limb Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, on type 2 diabetes remission in severely obese patients.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of nutritional intervention on anthropometric, biochemical and cardiovascular parameters in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants will be distributed into 2 groups (control and intervention). Participants in the control group will only undergo conventional medical assessment and participants in the intervention group will receive the same medical care, concomitantly with nutritional assessment. The nutritional intervention is expected to reduce anthropometric data, glycemic and cardiovascular parameters in participants with T2DM, as opposed to the control group.

The increase in the prevalence of diabetes and the loss of various organs and functions in the individual as a result of complications caused by diabetes affect the life expectancy and quality of individuals, and cause social and economic losses affecting the whole society. For this reason, the individual management of the diabetic patient is important in terms of ensuring effective participation and compliance in treatment and care. Patients must have knowledge, skills and positive attitudes in order to successfully comply with diabetes treatment. Patients are in compliance with diabetes treatment; they encounter some barriers such as medication barriers, barriers to self-monitoring, knowledge and belief barriers, barriers to diagnosis, barriers in relations with health professionals, barriers to lifestyle change, barriers to coping with diabetes, and barriers to getting advice and support. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) states that self-monitoring of blood sugar is important in ensuring glycemic control and preventing hyperglycemia and asymptomatic hypoglycemia. Reiki is applied as an alternative and complementary treatment method. Reiki application, when used together with pharmacological methods, chronic fatigue, diabetic neuropathy, pain caused by surgery, cancer treatment, symptoms of cardiovascular diseases, emotional disorders such as anxiety, depression, acute or chronic pain, infertility-related problems, neurodegenerative disorders, AIDS, autism and developmental disorders, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome, traumatic brain injury and has been shown to improve health problems such as fatigue. In the literature, the effects of reiki have been examined in patient groups with different chronic diseases, but no study has been found on obese individuals with Type 2 diabetes. Therefore, reikinin in obese individuals with Type 2 diabetes; This study is planned to determine whether it has an effect on compliance with diabetes treatment, eating behaviors, anxiety levels and changes in metabolic values.

The complications associated with uncontrolled type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are numerous; reducing the quality of life for the patient and consuming a considerable portion of healthcare finances. The Health of the Nation (HotN) 2011 study reported that 50% of the Barbadian population \>65years old had a diagnosis of T2DM and that two-thirds of the population were overweight - which is a risk factor for the development of T2DM. Encouraged by the success of the Counterpoint study in the United Kingdom (UK), the Barbados Diabetes Reversal Study 1 (BDRS1) was established using a similar protocol; the aim of which was to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a very low calorie diet to reverse T2DM in Barbados. At the end of the 8-week intervention period, the 25 participants had achieved an average weight loss of 10.1kg (22lbs). This was accompanied by an increase in the number of participants whose fasting blood sugars were now within normal range despite being off of their diabetes medication; and a decrease in the number of participants taking blood pressure medication. Participants transitioned to a solid diet over a 4-week period, with guidance on health dietary habits and regular exercise routines. The benefits accrued during the intervention phase were preserved at the end of the transition period. We now propose the Barbados Diabetes Remission Study 2 (BDRS2) as a sustainable community intervention - utilizing the local church as the community site. We hypothesize that this will enhance reach while reducing the cost of the study and will also facilitate the structures necessary for the social support of the participant.

Nutrition therapy is recognized as one of the crucial components for the standard treatment of diabetes along with physical activity and drug therapy. Of note, dietary habits are culture specific and hence understanding the dietary intake, eating behavior and physical activity level of the local population is important to formulate effective nutrition and lifestyle strategies. Weight control is a major therapeutic challenge because many conventionally used anti-diabetic agents, such as sulphonylurea and insulin, can cause weight gain, thus setting up a vicious cycle with increasing insulin resistance due to increasing levels of free fatty acids from adipose tissues . Although intensive face-to-face lifestyle intervention program has showed that even modest weight loss in people with Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who were overweight or obese was associated with improvements in glycemic control and associated conditions, it may not be feasible in public hospital setting in Hong Kong due to factors such as limited resources, scheduling, patient's employment and willingness for frequent travel to the clinic. Hence, alternative strategies such as a combination of face- to-face individual dietary and lifestyle consultation together with telephone intensive lifestyle reinforcement program will likely to be an useful strategy to engage those obese T2DM patients through frequent individual contacts. On the other hand, bariatric surgery has emerged as an impressive therapeutic option for poorly control obese T2DM patients. Realizing there is a knowledge gap in understanding the lifestyle factors in the Hong Kong Chinese obese T2DM patients, we therefore propose to conduct a 1-year prospective clinical trial with two main objectives: 1. To study and compare the glycemic and weight improvement after bariatric surgery versus a telephone intensive lifestyle intervention program for 1 year in Hong Kong Chinese obese patients with type 2 diabetes. 2. To investigate the effect of lifestyle factors including dietary intake, eating behaviors and physical activity level on the glycemic and weight control of Hong Kong Chinese obese patients with type 2 diabetes.
