Details

Clinical study on humans was performed as a 2-way factorial design with two factors both on two levels: bariatric surgery on two levels (before and after the bariatric surgery) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) on two levels (with and without T2D). There were 8 patients without T2D and 7 with T2D. It was discovered that the patients with T2D would be separated in two groups: 3 patients in the group called T2D1 and 4 patients in the group called T2D2. The experiment can therefore also analysed as 2 way factorial design where the disease factor is on three levels. All patients were obese before bariatric surgery (BMI >45). Transcriptome in the subcutaneous adipose tissue were obtained before and one year after bariatric surgery.
