What this Trial Is About

Type 2 diabetes and obesity are both multifactorial diseases resulting from gene-environment interactions. However, this interaction, as well as the specific effect of each polymorphism, remains poorly understood. We now proposed a prospective cohort study to improve our understanding of the influence of phenotypic characteristics on gene expression in tissues involved in glucose and/or lipid metabolism by collecting different biological samples.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligible

You may qualify if you...

  • Age between 18 and 65 years
  • Scheduled for abdominal surgery requiring laparotomy or laparoscopy such as bariatric surgery, gallbladder removal, or abdominal wall surgery
  • Have one of the following phenotypes:
    1. BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 with diabetes defined by fasting blood glucose ≥ 7 mmol/L and/or blood glucose ≥ 11.1 mmol/L 120 minutes after glucose ingestion
    2. BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 with glucose intolerance defined by fasting blood glucose > 6 mmol/L and < 7 mmol/L and/or blood glucose > 7.8 mmol/L and < 11.1 mmol/L 120 minutes after glucose ingestion
    3. BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 without diabetes defined by blood glucose ≤ 6 mmol/L and/or ≤ 7.8 mmol/L 120 minutes after glucose ingestion
    4. BMI < 27 kg/m2 without diabetes defined by blood glucose ≤ 6 mmol/L and/or ≤ 7.8 mmol/L 120 minutes after glucose ingestion
    5. BMI between 27 and 35 kg/m2 without diabetes defined by blood glucose ≤ 6 mmol/L and/or ≤ 7.8 mmol/L 120 minutes after glucose ingestion
Not Eligible

You will not qualify if you...

  • Unable to receive clear information
  • Refusal to sign the consent form
  • Presence of a pathology judged by the surgeon that may increase the risk of adverse events related to tissue sampling
