ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Dear Editor, Bonaventura et al. (1) reported that bariatric surgery (BS) improved both metabolic and inflammatory biomarkers at 1- and 3-year follow-up. Pre-surgery high C-reactive protein

(CRP) levels predicted 3-year type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) partial remission, indicating a promising target population to be especially treated with biliopancreatic diversion..
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is clinically related to metabolic syndrome, fasting

insulin, adiponectin, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. EAT is rich in saturated fatty acids, such as the palmitate and stearic acid (2). Palmitate has been shown to down-regulate

leptin secretion (3). Leptin is an adipokine well known for its role in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure. Leptin suppresses insulin synthesis and secretion and increases insulin sensitivity, but also contributes to regulate liver and skeletal muscle lipid oxidation and glucose metabolism (4). BS induced a efficient reduction in inflammatory and insulin

resistance parameters. Lai et al. (5) reported that EAT was independently associated with systemic inflammation in terms of elevated hsCRP after adjustment for traditional body fat measure.

In this context, beneficial effects of BS in patients with T2DM were evaluated in this

study (1), correlation of this study’s results with EAT might be beneficial due to close association among EAT, leptin, and CRP.
