Mechanisms behind the immediate effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery on type 2 diabetes by Roland E Allen (19187023)

“…Our method involves (1) setting up a set of time-dependent equations for the concentrations of the most relevant species, (2) considering an “adiabatic” (or quasi-equilibrium) state in which the concentrations are slowly varying compared to reaction rates (and which in the present case is a postprandial state), and (3) solving for the dependent concentrations (of e.g. insulin and glucose) as an independent concentration (of e.g. …”
