Patients reported to the laboratory before the operation and 68 months after the operation to receive in random order, on separate days, after fasting overnight for at least 10 h, 300 ml of orange juice (containing 27 g of carbohydrate sugar) supplemented with either 25 g oligofructose-enriched inulin (inulin, OraftiSynergy1, ~92% inulin content, BENEO GmbH, Mannheim, Germany), or an equicaloric load of 15.5 g maltodextrin (MDX, Nutricia GmbH, Erlangen, Germany, see Supplemental Table 1)
