Introduction: Improvement in glycaemia is observed early after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass surgery (RYGB) in patients with diabetes. Commonly cited mechanisms to account for these changes include the elevation of gut hormones, increase in bile acids levels, changes in the gut microbiota and calorie restriction. Calorie restriction is believed to play a role in improving hepatic insulin sensitivity and reduce hepatic glucose output early after RYGB, in the context of non-significa...

Background: Phaeochromocytomas (PCC) and paragangliomas (PGL) are tumours derived from neural crest cells within the adrenal medulla or extra-adrenal ganglia, respectively. Over 20 known genes are implicated in at least 30% of cases. Experience with these tumours in individual centres is limited due to their rarity.Objective: To describe the demographics, genetics, treatment and progression-free survival (PFS) in ...
