RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Whether symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (sBPH), which is common among middle-aged and older men, affects the risk of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) remains controversial. The present study explored this question among men undergoing total knee arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty (TKA and THA). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed medical data from 948 men who underwent primary TKA or THA at our institution between 2010 and 2021. We compared the incidence of postoperative complications such as PJI, urinary tract infection (UTI), and postoperative urinary retention (POUR) between 316 patients (193 hips and 123 knees) who did and 632 patients who did not have sBPH; the 2 groups of patients were matched to each other in a 1:2 ratio based on numerous clinical demographic variables. In the subgroup analyses, we stratified sBPH patients according to whether they began anti-sBPH medical therapy prior to arthroplasty. RESULTS: PJI following primary TKA was significantly more common among sBPH patients than among patients who did not have sBPH (4.1 vs 0.4%; P = .029), as were UTI (P = .029), and POUR (P < .001). Patients who had sBPH also had an increased incidence of UTI (P = .006) and POUR (P < .001) following THA. Among sBPH patients, those who started anti-sBPH medical therapy before TKA suffered significantly lower incidence of PJI than those who did not. CONCLUSION: Symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia is a risk factor for PJI after primary TKA among men, and starting appropriate medical therapy before surgery can reduce the risk of PJI following TKA and postoperative urinary complications following TKA and THA.

Delayed or failed bone healing is a significant clinical challenge worldwide. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) offer a promising approach for improving fracture healing. Isomangiferin, a xanthone C-glucoside, is known for its pharmacological activities, but its role in fracture healing remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of isomangiferin on BMSCs under oxidative stress conditions induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Our results showed that isomangiferin promotes osteogenic differentiation and migration of H2O2-treated BMSCs, reduces apoptosis and reactive oxygen species production, and activates the AMP-activated protein kinase/acetyl-CoA carboxylase (AMPK/ACC) pathway. These findings suggest that isomangiferin may be a potential therapeutic agent for enhancing bone healing by modulating BMSC function.
RESUMO
Objective: This study aims to assess the early clinical outcomes of bipolar hemiarthroplasty for treating femoral neck fractures in elderly patients aged 75 and above using the Orthopädische Chirurgie München (OCM) approach. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a cohort of 95 elderly patients who underwent bipolar hemiarthroplasty for Garden Type III and IV femoral neck fractures between January 2020 and December 2022. The participants were categorized into two groups according to the surgical approach used: the OCM approach and the posterior-lateral approach (PLA). The average follow-up duration was 11.20 ± 2.80 months for the OCM group and 11.12 ± 2.95 months for the PLA group, with both groups ranging from 6 to 18 months. Clinical outcomes assessed included surgical duration, incision length, postoperative hospital stay, time to ambulation, hemoglobin levels, serum creatine kinase (CK) levels, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, pain (assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale, VAS), and functional recovery (evaluated through Harris hip scores). Additionally, complications such as intraoperative and postoperative fractures, deep vein thrombosis, wound infection, nerve injury, postoperative dislocation, leg length discrepancy, and Trendelenburg gait were monitored. Results: There was no significant difference in the surgical duration between the OCM and PLA groups. However, the OCM group exhibited shorter incision lengths, reduced postoperative hospital stays, and earlier ambulation times compared to the PLA group. Significantly lower intraoperative blood loss, smaller decreases in hemoglobin levels on postoperative days 1 and 3, lesser hidden blood loss, and decreased levels of CK and CRP were observed in the OCM group. Pain levels, measured by VAS scores, were lower, and Harris hip scores, indicating functional recovery, were higher at 2 and 6 weeks postoperatively in the OCM group than in the PLA group. The incidence of complications, such as periprosthetic fractures, intramuscular venous thrombosis, hip dislocations, Trendelenburg gait, and leg length discrepancies, showed no significant differences between the groups. Conclusion: The OCM approach for bipolar hemiarthroplasty in patients aged 75 and above with femoral neck fractures offers significant early clinical benefits over the traditional PLA, including faster recovery, reduced postoperative pain, and enhanced early functional recovery.
RESUMO
In minimally invasive thoracoscopic surgery, for solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) far from the pleura, it is difficult to resected by only relying on imaging data, and effective preoperative localization can significantly improve the success rate of surgery. Therefore, preoperative localization is particularly important for accurate resection. Here, we compare the value of a novel Lung-pro-guided localization technique with Hook-wire localization in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. METHOD: In this study, 70 patients who underwent CT-guided Hook-wire localization and Lung-pro guided surgical marker localization before VATS-based SPNs resection between May 2020 and March 2021 were analyzed, and the clinical efficacy and complication rate of the two groups were compared. RESULT: Thirty-five patients underwent Lung-pro guided surgical marker localization, and 35 patients underwent CT-guided Hook-wire localization. The localization success rates were 94.3% and 88.6%, respectively (p = 0.673). Compared with the puncture group, the locating time in the Lung-pro group was significantly shorter (p = 0.000), and the wedge resection time was slightly shorter than that in the puncture group (P = 0.035). There were no significant differences in the success rate of localization, localization complications, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, and the number of staplers used. CONCLUSION: The above studies show that the Lung-pro guided surgical marker localization and the CT-guided Hook-wire localization have shown good safety and effectiveness. However, the Lung-pro guided surgical marker localization may show more safety than the Hook-wire and can improve the patient's perioperative experience.

Nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) infection can lead to gastroenteritis, enteric fever, and bacteremia. However, bone and joint infections due to NTS are rarely encountered, accounting for only 0.8% of all Salmonella infections and 0.45% of all types of osteomyelitis. We herein report an extremely rare case of acute multifocal osteomyelitis (bilateral femurs and left tibia) with septic arthritis of the bilateral hips caused by Salmonella Dublin in an immunocompetent adult. We performed thorough debridement of the bilateral hips and surgical decompression of the involved bones. At 1 year of follow-up, the patient's inflammatory biomarkers were within normal limits, and clinical and radiologic examinations showed no signs of infection. We emphasize that invasive NTS can lead to multifocal bone and joint infections in immunocompetent adults. The manifestations of Salmonella osteomyelitis may be insidious; thus, we recommend performing a simultaneous magnetic resonance imaging examination of the bone adjacent to the infected joint to avoid missed or delayed diagnosis. Thorough surgical debridement combined with a long course of sensitive antibiotic therapy is essential to eradicate the infection.

Background: Diazoxide is a selective mitochondrial-sensitive potassium channel opening agent that has a definite effect on reducing myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI). However, the exact effects of diazoxide postconditioning on the myocardial metabolome remain unclear, which might contribute to the cardioprotective effects of diazoxide postconditioning. Methods: Rat hearts subjected to Langendorff perfusion were randomly assigned to the normal (Nor) group, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) group, diazoxide (DZ) group and 5-hydroxydecanoic acid + diazoxide (5-HD + DZ) group. The heart rate (HR), left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), and maximum left ventricular pressure (+dp/dtmax) were recorded. The mitochondrial Flameng scores were analysed according to the ultrastructure of the ventricular myocardial tissue in the electron microscopy images. Rat hearts of each group were used to investigate the possible metabolic changes relevant to MIRI and diazoxide postconditioning. Results: The cardiac function indices in the Nor group were better than those in the other groups at the end point of reperfusion, and the HR, LVDP and +dp/dtmax of the Nor group at T2 were significantly higher than those of the other groups. Diazoxide postconditioning significantly improved cardiac function after ischaemic injury, and the HR, LVDP and +dp/dtmax of the DZ group at T2 were significantly higher than those of the I/R group, which could be abolished by 5-HD. The HR, LVDP and +dp/dtmax of the 5-HD + DZ group at T2 were significantly lower than those of the DZ group. The myocardial tissue in the Nor group was mostly intact, while it exhibited considerable damage in the I/R group. The ultrastructural integrity of the myocardium in the DZ group was higher than that in the I/R and 5-HD + DZ groups. The mitochondrial Flameng score in the Nor group was lower than that in the I/R, DZ and 5-HD + DZ groups. The mitochondrial Flameng score in the DZ group was lower than that in the I/R and 5-HD + DZ groups. Five metabolites, namely, L-glutamic acid, L-threonine, citric acid, succinate, and nicotinic acid, were suggested to be associated with the protective effects of diazoxide postconditioning on MIRI. Conclusion: Diazoxide postconditioning may improve MIRI via certain metabolic changes. This study provides resource data for future studies on metabolism relevant to diazoxide postconditioning and MIRI.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Xuanwei lung cancer (XWLC) is well-known for its high incidence and mortality. However, the molecular mechanism is still unclear. METHODS: We performed a comprehensive transcriptomic, proteomic, and phosphoproteomic characterization of tumors and matched normal adjacent tissues from three XWLC patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). RESULTS: Integrated transcriptome and proteome analysis revealed dysregulated molecules and pathways in tumors and identified enhanced metabolic-disease coupling. Non-coding RNAs were widely involved in post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms to coordinate the progress of LUAD and partially explained the molecular differences between RNA and protein expression patterns. Phosphoproteome provided evidence support for new phosphate sites, reporting the potential roles of core kinase family members and key kinase pathways involved in metabolism, immunity, and homeostasis. In addition, by comparing with the previous LUAD researches, we emphasized the higher degree of oxidative phosphorylation in Xuanwei LUAD and pointed that VIPR1 deficiency aggravated metabolic dysfunction. CONCLUSION: Our integrated multi-omics analysis provided a powerful resource for a systematic understanding of the molecular structure of XWLC and proposed therapeutic opportunities based on redox metabolism.

Background: Septic arthritis with osteomyelitis due to Salmonella enterica serotype Dublin is rare. We reviewed and analyzed cases of septic arthritis with osteomyelitis due to Salmonella enterica serotype Dublin seen at our institution. Methods: The medical records of all patients diagnosed with Salmonella septic arthritis and/or Salmonella osteomyelitis during 2017-2022 were included. We reviewed the diagnosis, medical history, clinical management, and outcome of all cases. Results: Five patients with Salmonella septic arthritis or Salmonella osteomyelitis were identified during the 5-year study period. They were all male; the median age was 53 years (range 15-56). Only one was immunodeficient. All five patients were infected at the hip joint and ipsilateral femur, while two suffered bilateral hip septic arthritis with femoral osteomyelitis. Salmonella Dublin was isolated from the hip joint fluid of all patients. Four presented with fever and constitutional signs within four weeks of symptom onset. Four had positive blood cultures, and only one patient had gastrointestinal symptoms. Four patients underwent surgical debridement as the primary surgical plan, and two underwent secondary two-stage exchange after primary surgical debridement failure. The last patient had a two-stage exchange directly as the first surgical treatment. All patients received intravenous antimicrobial therapy for a median duration of 6 (range 4-12) weeks and oral antimicrobial therapy for a median duration of 4 (range 4-6) weeks. All patients had a median duration of follow-up of 12 months (range 9-25), and none had evidence of recurrence of infection. Conclusions: Septic arthritis due to Salmonella Dublin remains rare. It frequently occurs with ipsilateral femur osteomyelitis adjacent to the infected hip joint in our cases. Surgical debridement or two-stage exchange, along with 4-12 weeks of effective intravenous and followed by 4-6 oral antimicrobial therapy, could successfully eradicate the infection.
RESUMO
Synthetic diamond particle-reinforced copper-iron composites (SD/Cu-Fe) were produced by the powder metallurgical method for stone cutting applications, and the microstructure, density, compactness, hardness, flexure strength, and wear resistance of the composites were characterized in this work. The results showed that the diamond particles were relatively uniformly distributed in most areas of the copper matrix and the crystal shape of diamond particles were relatively intact in the sintering temperature range from 740 °C to 780 °C. The interfaces between the diamond particles and copper matrix, as well as the interfaces between the copper matrix and iron layer, were well bonded without significant gaps. The physical properties of composites increased first and then decreased with the sintering temperature. When the sintering temperature was 770 °C, the related properties reached the best. Diamond played a key role in improving the properties of the SD/Cu-Fe sandwich composite. This work provides a basis for the research and development of high-performance diamond-reinforced copper-based iron sandwich composites.
RESUMO
Background: Acute infection, such as periprosthetic joint infection and superficial surgical site infection, after primary total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is a serious complication, and its risk factors remain controversial. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for acute infection after primary TJA, especially the serological indicators that reflect preoperative nutritional statuses, such as albumin level and albumin to fibrinogen ratio (AFR). Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent elective primary hip or knee arthroplasty at our institution from 2009 to 2021. Potential risk factors of acute infection and demographic information were extracted from an electronic health record. Patients who suffered acute infection, such as PJI or SSI, after TJA were considered the study group. Non-infected patients were matched 1:2 with the study group according to sex, age, the involved joint (hip or knee), and year of surgery (control group). The variables of potential risk factors for acute postoperative infection (demographic characteristics, preoperative comorbidities and drug use, operative variables, and laboratory values) were collected and evaluated by regression analysis. Restrictive cubic spline regression analysis was also used to examine the relationship between preoperative serum albumin levels and acute postoperative infection. Results: We matched 162 non-infected patients with 81 patients who suffered from acute postoperative infection. Among the patients who suffered from acute infection within 90 days after TJA, 18 were diagnosed with periprosthetic joint infection and 63 with surgical site infection. Low albumin levels were strongly associated with acute postoperative infection (95% confidence interval, 0.822-0.980; P = 0.015). This risk increased as preoperative albumin levels decreased, with a negative dose-response relationship (P overall = 0.002; P nonlinear = 0.089). However, there was no significant association between the AFR and acute infection after primary TJA (P = 0.100). Conclusion: There is currently insufficient evidence to confirm the relationship between preoperative AFR and acute infection after elective primary TJA, while a lower preoperative albumin level is an independent risk factor for acute infection with a negative dose-response relationship. This suggests that optimal nutritional management may be benefited before elective primary TJA.
RESUMO
Human bodies exhibit various shapes for different identities or poses, but the body shape has certain similarities in structure and thus can be embedded in a low-dimensional space. This article presents an autoencoder-like network architecture to learn disentangled shape and pose embedding specifically for the 3D human body. This is inspired by recent progress of deformation-based latent representation learning. To improve the reconstruction accuracy, we propose a hierarchical reconstruction pipeline for the disentangling process and construct a large dataset of human body models with consistent connectivity for the learning of the neural network. Our learned embedding can not only achieve superior reconstruction accuracy but also provide great flexibility in 3D human body generation via interpolation, bilinear interpolation, and latent space sampling. The results from extensive experiments demonstrate the powerfulness of our learned 3D human body embedding in various applications.

BACKGROUND: Composite metrics have the potential to provide more complete and clinically useful information about glycemic control than traditional individual metrics such as hemoglobin A1C, %/time/area under curve of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. METHODS: Using five key metrics that are derived from continuous glucose monitoring, we developed a new, multicomponent composite metric, the Comprehensive Glucose Pentagon (CGP) that demonstrates glycemic control both numerically and visually. Two of its axes are composite metrics-the intensity of hypoglycemia and intensity of hyperglycemia. This approach eliminates the use of the surrogate marker, hemoglobin A1C (A1C), and replaces it with glucose-centric metrics. RESULTS: We reanalyzed the data from two randomized control trials, the STAR 3 and ASPIRE In-Home studies using the CGP. It provided new insights into the effect of sensor-augmented pumping (SAP) in the STAR 3 trial and sensor-integrated pumping with low-glucose threshold suspend (SIP+TS) in the ASPIRE In-Home trial. CONCLUSIONS: The CGP has the potential to enable health care providers, investigators and patients to better understand the components of glycemic control and the effect of various interventions on the individual elements of that control. This can be done on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. It also allows direct comparison of the effects on different interventions among clinical trials which is not possible using A1C alone. This new composite metric approach requires validation to determine if it provides a better predictor of long-term outcomes than A1C and/or better predictor of severe hypoglycemia than the low blood glucose index (LBGI).

BACKGROUND: Quantifying hypoglycemia has traditionally been limited to using the frequency of hypoglycemic events during a given time interval using data from blood glucose (BG) testing. However, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) captures three parameters-a Hypo-Triad-unavailable with BG monitoring that can be used to better characterize hypoglycemia: area under the curve (AUC), time (duration of hypoglycemia), and frequency of daily episodes below a specified threshold. METHODS: We developed two new analytic metrics to enhance the traditional Hypo-Triad of CGM-derived data to more effectively capture the intensity of hypoglycemia (IntHypo) and overall hypoglycemic environment called the "hypoglycemia risk volume" (HypoRV). We reanalyzed the CGM data from the ASPIRE In-Home study, a randomized, controlled trial of a sensor-integrated pump system with a low glucose threshold suspend feature (SIP+TS), using these new metrics and compared them to standard metrics of hypoglycemia. RESULTS: IntHypo and HypoRV provide additional insights into the benefit of a SIP+TS system on glycemic exposure when compared to the standard reporting methods. In addition, the visual display of these parameters provides a unique and intuitive way to understand the impact of a diabetes intervention on a cohort of subjects as well as on individual patients. CONCLUSION: The IntHypo and HypoRV are new and enhanced ways of analyzing CGM-derived data in diabetes intervention studies which could lead to new insights in diabetes management. They require validation using existing, ongoing, or planned studies to determine whether they are superior to existing metrics.

PURPOSE: This study aims to establish whether changes in indices of insulin sensitivity (Si) derived from fasting glucose and an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) are comparable to Si determined by the oral minimal model (OMM) in response to acute moderate-intensity exercise (MIE) and high-intensity exercise (HIE). METHODS: Eighteen prediabetic subjects completed three conditions: control (no exercise), â¼ 200 kcal of MIE (â¼ 50% of VO2peak), and â¼ 200 kcal of HIE (â¼ 80% VO2peak). One hour postexercise (or control), subjects underwent a 75-g OGTT; plasma glucose and insulin were measured to determine Si using several OGTT-based indices (OMM, Belfiore index, Cederholm index, Matsuda index, Gutt index, oral glucose insulin sensitivity index, Stumvoll metabolic clearance rate, Stumvoll insulin sensitivity index, 1/mean OGTT insulin, and 1/insulin incremental area under the curve) and fasting indices (1/homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance, 1/adipose tissue insulin resistance, 40/fasting insulin, and Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index). ANOVA and Pearson's correlations were used to examine relationships between changes in Si (ΔSi) among various indices compared to the OMM. RESULTS: Exercise resulted in a significant increase in Si, according to OGTT-based indices ranging from 11% to 51% (MIE, P < 0.04) and from 8% to 85% (HIE, P < 0.05). Fasting indices showed no change in response to MIE (P > 0.29) and a decrease in Si following HIE (P < 0.001). OGTT-based and fasting indices underpredicted ΔSi-OMM by â¼ 40% and â¼ 90% following MIE and HIE, respectively. ΔSi-OMM following MIE was moderately correlated with ΔSi estimated by OGTT-based indices, but not fasting indices. In contrast, ΔSi-OMM following HIE was not significantly correlated with any Si index. CONCLUSIONS: Insulin sensitivity increases postexercise, according to most Si models. However, there is high variability between indices under each condition, and these measures only correlate with the OMM following MIE. Caution should be exerted when drawing conclusions about the insulin-sensitizing effects of exercise based on OGTT and fasting indices.

BACKGROUND: Factors influencing glycemic variability in type 1 diabetes (T1D) may play a significant role in the refinement of closed loop insulin administration. Phase of menstrual cycle is one such factor that has been inadequately investigated. We propose that unique individual patterns can be constructed and used as parameters of closed loop systems. METHOD: Women with T1D on continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion and continuous glucose monitoring were studied for 3 consecutive menstrual cycles. Ovulation prediction kits and labs were used to confirm phase of menstrual cycle. Glycemic risks were assessed using the low- and high blood glucose indices (LBGI and HBGI). Insulin sensitivity (SI) was estimated using a Kalman filtering method from meal and insulin data. Overall change significance for glycemic risks was assessed by repeated measures ANOVA, with specific phases emphasized using contrasts. RESULTS: Ovulation was confirmed in 33/36 cycles studied in 12 subjects (age = 33.1 ± 7.0 years, BMI = 25.7 ± 2.9 kg/m(2), A1c = 6.8 ± 0.7%). Risk for hyperglycemia changed significantly during the cycle (P = .023), with HBGI increasing until early luteal phase and returning to initial levels thereafter. LBGI was steady in the follicular phase, decreasing thereafter but not significantly. SI was depressed during the luteal phase when compared to the early follicular phase (P ≤ .05). Total daily insulin, carbohydrates, or calories did not show any significant fluctuations. CONCLUSIONS: Women with T1D have glycemic variability changes that are specific to the individual and are linked to phase of cycle. An increased risk of hyperglycemia was observed during periovulation and early luteal phases compared to the early follicular phase; these changes appear to be associated with decreased insulin sensitivity during the luteal phase.

BACKGROUND: Studies of closed-loop control (CLC) systems have improved glucose levels in patients with type 1 diabetes. In this study we test a new CLC concept aiming to "reset" the patient overnight to near-normoglycemia each morning, for several consecutive nights. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Ten insulin pump users with type 1 diabetes (mean age, 46.4±8.5 years) were enrolled in a two-center (in the United States and Italy) randomized crossover trial comparing 5 consecutive nights of CLC (23:00-07:00 h) in an outpatient setting versus sensor-augmented insulin pump therapy of the same duration at home. Primary end points included time spent in 80-140 mg/dL as measured by continuous glucose monitoring overnight and fasting blood glucose distribution at 7:00 h. RESULTS: Compared with sensor-augmented pump therapy, CLC improved significantly time spent between 80 and 140 mg/dL (54.5% vs. 32.2%; P<0.001) and between 70 and 180 mg/dL (85.4% vs. 59.1%; P<0.001); CLC reduced the mean glucose level at 07:00 h (119.3 vs. 152.9 mg/dL; P<0.001) and overnight mean glucose level (139.0 vs. 170.3 mg/dL; P<0.001) using a marginally lower amount of insulin (6.1 vs. 6.8 units; P=0.1). Tighter overnight control led to improved daytime control on the next day: the overnight/next-day control correlation was r=0.52, P<0.01. CONCLUSIONS: Multinight CLC of insulin delivery (artificial pancreas) results in significant improvement in morning and overnight glucose levels and time in target range, with the potential to improve daytime control when glucose levels were "reset" to near-normoglycemia each morning.

BACKGROUND: A single bout of exercise improves postprandial glycemia and insulin sensitivity in prediabetic patients; however, the impact of exercise intensity is not well understood. The present study compared the effects of acute isocaloric moderate (MIE) and high-intensity (HIE) exercise on glucose disposal and insulin sensitivity in prediabetic adults. METHODS: Subjects (n=18; age 49±14 y; fasting glucose 105±11 mg/dL; 2 h glucose 170±32 mg/dL) completed a peak O2 consumption/lactate threshold (LT) protocol plus three randomly assigned conditions: 1) control, 1 hour of seated rest, 2) MIE (at LT), and 3) HIE (75% of difference between LT and peak O2 consumption). One hour after exercise, subjects received an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Plasma glucose, insulin, and C-peptide concentrations were sampled at 5- to 10-minute intervals at baseline, during exercise, after exercise, and for 3 hours after glucose ingestion. Total, early-phase, and late-phase area under the glucose and insulin response curves were compared between conditions. Indices of insulin sensitivity (SI) were derived from OGTT data using the oral minimal model. RESULTS: Compared with control, SI improved by 51% (P=.02) and 85% (P<.001) on the MIE and HIE days, respectively. No differences in SI were observed between the exercise conditions (P=.62). Improvements in SI corresponded to significant reductions in the glucose, insulin, and C-peptide area under the curve values during the late phase of the OGTT after HIE (P<.05), with only a trend for reductions after MIE. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that in prediabetic adults, acute exercise has an immediate and intensity-dependent effect on improving postprandial glycemia and insulin sensitivity.
