Does consumption of both resistant starch and beta-glucan improve postprandial plasma glucose and insulin in women?
Soluble fiber appears to have a greater effect on postprandial insulin response while glucose reduction is greater after resistant starch from high-amylose cornstarch. The reduction in glycemic response was enhanced by combining resistant starch and soluble fiber. Consumption of foods containing moderate amounts of these fibers may improve glucose metabolism in both normal and overweight women.
The results of this study showed that pedicle screws can be easily and safely backed out after augmentation with PMMA or CPC. The result of CPC, however, may only be valid before any bony ingrowth.
