A tremendous increase in the coexistence of diabetes and hypertension has been observed recently in India. Apart from lifestyle and genetic factors, socioeconomic status, age, gender, occupation and lack of awareness are also contributing to the tremendous increases in the prevalence of both the diseases. Hypertension has been long recognised as one of the major risk factors for chronic disease burden, morbidity and mortality in India, attributable to 10.8 of all deaths in the country. Even though microvascular complications are frequently linked to hyperglycaemia, studies have also proven the critical involvement of hypertension in the development of these co morbidities. The co occurrence of hypertension in diabetic patients considerably escalates the risks of coronary heart disease, stroke, nephropathy and retinopathy. The annual expenditure for diabetes for the Indian population was estimated to be 1541.4 billion INR 31.9 billion in 2010. The expense of diabetes care further escalates in the presence of complications or co morbidities. Generally, a diabetic patient with hypertension spent an average of 1.4 times extra than a diabetic patient without hypertension. Even though diabetes and hypertension are considered as important risk factors for cardiovascular and chronic kidney diseases, the awareness about the prevention, treatment and control of these diseases remains alarmingly low in the developing countries like India. The healthcare system in India should focus on better hypertension screening and control, especially in diabetic patients, to minimise the burden of the dual epidemic.India, with one of the largest and most diverse populations of people living with diabetes, experiences significant barriers in successful diabetes care. Limitations in appropriate and timely use of insulin impede the achievement of good glycemic control. The current article aims to identify solutions to barriers in the effective use of insulin therapy viz. its efficacy and safety, impact on convenience and life style and lack of awareness and education. Therapeutic modalities, which avoid placing an undue burden on patients life style, must be built. These should incorporate patient centric paradigms of diabetes care, team based approach for life style modification and monitoring of patients adherence to therapy. To address the issues in efficacy and safety, long acting, flat profile basal insulin, which mimics physiological insulin and show fewer hypoglycemic events is needed. In addition, therapy must be linked to monitoring of blood glucose to enable effective use of insulin therapy. In conjunction, wide ranging efforts must be made to remove negative perception of insulin therapy in the community. Patient and physician targeted programs to enhance awareness in various aspects of diabetes care must be initiated across all levels of health care ensuring uniformity of information. To successfully address the challenges in facing diabetes care, partnerships

Background of study Diabetes mellitus is common among elderly persons, with several potential complications that could contribute to falls. Previous studies suggested that there is more prevalence of fall among diabetic elderly patients as compared to non diabetic elderly.Aim of the studyThe aim of this study is to assess the risk of fall in elderly diabetic and non diabetic patients.Material and methods A quantitative research approach and non experimental comparative research design was used. Total 60 elderly were selected 30 diabetic elderly and 30 non diabetic elderly by non probability purposive sampling technique. Data were collected by using Timed Up and Go test to assess the risk of fall in non diabetic and diabetic elderly patients. Analysis was done using both descriptive and inferential statistics.FindingsIn non diabetic group 46.66 elderly were having medium risk of fall, 33.33 were independent individuals and only 20 were having high risk of fall. Where as in diabetic patients majority 70 were having high risk of fall, 20 medium risk of fall and only 10 patients observed as independent individuals. The mean time taken to complete Timed up and go TUG test among diabetic elderly was more i.e. 23.36 sec. as compared to non diabetic elderly 14.13 and the difference was found to be statistically significant at p 0.05.ConclusionThe risk of fall is significantly increased among diabetic patients as compared to non diabetic elderly patients. In order to reduce falls and their consequences, assessment of fall risk will be beneficial for identifying the high risk population, which will help nurses provide tailored advice and interventions for the high risk population.

Abstract—Diabetes Mellitus is a lifestyle disease it is increasing with increase of urbanization. It is a side effect of development. Nowadays with the development of community it is also on increase trend. So this study was conducted on 250 patients of diabetes attended at Diabetic Clinic of SMS Hospital Jaipur, with the aim to find out socio-demographic profile of these diabetes cases. General information about the these case was gathered in a pre-designed semi-structured performa. It was found in this study that majority of cases were in age group of 31 to 45 years with slight male dominance. Education wise majority were Graduate followed by secondary educated and others. Likewise occupation wise majority were either unemployed of professional. Majority of cases were from Socio economic Class II and III. So it can be concluded that diabetes is a disease of middle age slight male dominance and of educated middle class individuals. Further studies are required to establish this fact.
People in the age group of 24 to 39 years, who have been living in big metros or booming small towns, are at the risk of being obese, a recent study has suggested.The study puts an alarming 70 per cent of Indias urban population in the obese or overweight category. And, at risk is the generation that Facebooks rather than go over to meet friends, bonds over gaming sessions on Playstations or X boxes rather than play cricket or badminton, the study warns.The national capital faces the ignominy of being the obesity capital of the country, while Chandigarh shares the top spot with Delhi.While declining sex ratio has been a concern in the country for years, there is now a new worrying trend emerging in the cities. The number of obese women in urban areas has been on the rise. Every second member of the fairer sex falls into this category.And, for long, Indias young population has been touted as Indias USP in the globalised economy. However, it also seems to be hit by the severe problem of obesity. For, it is the 24 39 age group that is the worst affected.Why urban India Experts suggest obesity has to do with the lifestyle of the majority of the population in urban India. The urban populace has easy access to high calorie packaged foods such as burgers, chips and colas.

- Factors like education level, occupation, and income were associated with both better knowledge and practices.
The document discusses the health care challenges in India. It notes that India faces a triple burden of diseases from communicable diseases, emerging non-communicable diseases, and emerging infectious diseases. This puts pressure on India's public health system. Some key health care challenges include lagging health indicators, a growing disease burden, inadequate health planning and infrastructure, inequitable resource distribution between rural and urban areas, shortages of health professionals and facilities, and low government health spending. To address these challenges, the document recommends strengthening public health systems with a focus on prevention, improving resource utilization, regulating the private sector, and ensuring universal access to quality health care through long-term planning.
ASEFSU23 Background Paper Child Obesity In IndiaNathan Mathis
This document discusses the growing crisis of childhood obesity in India, focusing on Delhi. It finds that childhood obesity levels are increasing, especially in urban areas and among affluent families. This is linked to factors of urbanization like reduced physical activity and increased access to unhealthy, calorie-dense foods. Children in Delhi are 5 times more likely to be overweight than rural children due to different diets and lifestyles. If left unaddressed, childhood obesity can lead to lifelong health issues and economic costs. The document calls for policy measures that consider the urban factors driving obesity and link urban development programs to addressing this issue.
The document provides an overview of the Indian healthcare industry and infrastructure. It notes that the industry is growing rapidly at 17% CAGR and is projected to reach $280 billion by 2020. Key drivers of growth include rising incomes, health awareness, lifestyle diseases, and insurance penetration. However, healthcare spending and infrastructure in India remains low compared to global standards. The private sector dominates healthcare delivery, accounting for around 80% of total spending. The government is taking initiatives to boost diagnostic infrastructure through public-private partnerships.
Coorelation study between hdi and epidemiological transition ratio among indi...subhash chandra
Per capita disease burden measured as DALY rate has dropped by about a third in India over the past 26 years. However, the magnitude and causes of disease burden and the risk factors vary greatly between the states.
The change to dominance of NCDs and injuries over CMNNDs occurred about a quarter century apart in the four ETL state groups. Nevertheless, the burden of some of the leading CMNNDs continues to be very high, especially in the lowest ETL states.
This comprehensive mapping of inequalities in disease burden and its causes across the states of India can be a crucial input for more specific health planning for each state [5]
India faces a double disease burden. Concrete measures need to address the rising epidemic of NCDs but also keep the momentum towards progress on preventable infectious diseases, maternal and child mortality. NCDs along with injuries make up the largest disease burden in India (62% of DALYs) [6]

Health System in India: Opportunities and Challenges for EnhancementsIOSRJBM
One of the basic vitalities of good living is quick access to essential services like health care. But many times it could mean a condition of life and death for an individual who is unable to get the access to these services. Thus an important part of social sector development is incomplete without adequate health care facilities. The quality of human health is the foundation upon which the realization of life goals and objectives of a persona, the community or nation as whole depends. It is both an end and means of development strategy. The relationship between health and development is mutually reinforcing- while health contributes to economic development, economic development, in turn, tends to improve the health status of the population in a country. India as a nation has been growing economically at a rapid pace particularly after the advent of New Economic Policy of 1991. However, this rapid economic development has not been accompanied by social development particularly health sector development. Health sector has been accorded very low priority in terms of allocation of resources. Public expenditure on health is less than 1 per cent of GDP in India. This research paper focuses on the current status of the Indian healthcare industry, the challenges faced plus the comparison of few selected Indian states based on health indicators. Furthermore comparison of India with some developed and developing countries is also employed in order get the clear picture of the health sector. In order to boost the development line, some opportunities in the health care industry are also discussed and necessary policy implications. Regarding in this connection India lags behind in regard of health improvement as compared to U.S.A, Canada, China, and Brazil, but contrary to other developing countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh the scenario is better with life expectancy, Mortality ratios, health care spending speak volumes about the healthcare status. When analyzed through the prism eye, within India there are large disparities amongst states in achieving health outcomes as well. Before liberalization the improvement was at a snail’s pace, but after liberalization the whole picture changed because the key initiatives to improve the current healthcare standard a two prong strategy focusing on the infrastructure needs and the technology solution were implemented, which resulted in the healthy scenario of the healthcare industry. Healthcare sector, a leading weapon as the contributor to GDP (approx.8%) is thus the matter to be deeply looked into, so that golden harvest is reaped.
Current status of health and burden of diseaseManiDhingra1
The document provides an overview of the current health status and disease burden in India. It discusses that communicable diseases account for around half of India's disease burden, with HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, and dengue posing significant problems. Non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer also contribute to 63% of all deaths in India. The document further summarizes methods for measuring disease burden, like disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and examines the impacts of disease burden on personal, social, and national levels.

This document summarizes India's health system and discusses opportunities for improvement. It notes that while India has made progress on health indicators, there are large gaps between states and COVID-19 has exposed weaknesses in the system. It calls for increased public financing through prioritizing health budgets, spending reforms, and intergovernmental reforms focused on equity. Service delivery reforms are also needed through decentralized, context-specific approaches rather than "one-size-fits-all." Investments in public health functions like disease surveillance are important. Overall, the document advocates for a more robust, equitable, and responsive health system aligned with the needs of the 21st century.
Consumption of Junk Foods and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes: A ReviewAI Publications
This document summarizes a review article that explores the relationship between consumption of junk food and type 2 diabetes. It finds that junk food, which is high in calories, salt, and saturated fat and low in nutrients, is directly linked to higher body mass index and insulin resistance. Consuming junk food contributes to a positive energy balance and obesity, which are the primary risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes. Recurrent junk food intake increases the likelihood of type 2 diabetes, especially among youth and women. Adopting a diet high in whole grains, fruits and vegetables and low in processed meats and sugar-sweetened drinks can help reduce the risk.
CII report titled "Addressing India's 21st century health challenges: Fostering public-private collaborations" gives an overview of the various gaps that exist in Public Health Delivery and identified areas where the private sector can plug in such gaps through partnerships. These include - financing and investments in Primary healthcare, education and training facilities – medical and public health, availability of essential drugs to all, expansion of universal health coverage and addressing health beyond healthcare etc. The report identifies PPPs to be a game changer in Public Health Delivery.
Food security issues in India acquired prominence in public policy debate through the 2000s, resulting in promulgation of schemes like the National Rural Health Mission, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act and the National Food Security Bill. The aura of high hopes built around these interventions almost completely absolves the role of the present social, economic and political system in leading to the precarious situation of the people. The mainstream debate on poverty and hunger has been sequestered within the safe margins defined by the present system. An alternative opinion critical of the present, social, economic and political structure has been an anathema to the mainstream debate. The present Modi government is intent on giving a go by even to the marginal gains that may have resulted from the social sector interventions mentioned above. The book – Food Security in India Myth and Reality is an effort to articulate an alternative for which there seems little scope in the mainstream debate. It is a political treatise on food security in India and an argument for the implementation of radical land reforms as the fulcrum of India’s social, economic and political transformation. The arguments there in are ”˜polemical’, ”˜tremendous’ and ”˜value laden’ because there can be no a polemical and value neutral position vis a vis issues that hinge on the power relations in the society.

This document summarizes research on lifestyles and health among various age, sex, and professional groups in India. It finds that as India has developed, communicable diseases have declined but non-communicable diseases are rising. Urbanization brings both better access to healthcare but also unhealthy lifestyles like poor diets and stress. While some professions like farming have healthier habits, others like many jobs face ergonomic and chemical risks. Overall monitoring of disease patterns is needed to address India's changing health challenges.
Covid impact on Indian health system and how does it made a combackUjwalReddyPB
This document provides an overview of India's health system and its performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. It finds that while India has made progress on health indicators, there are large gaps between states. COVID-19 has exposed weaknesses in areas like public health functions, service delivery readiness, urban health systems, and underfunding of health. It argues for increased government health financing, spending reforms, service delivery reforms tailored to each state's needs, and investments in public health to build a stronger health system for the 21st century.
Background: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of Diabetic Retinopathy and to find the associated risk factors of DR among known Type II DM patients.
Materials and Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional and single center study was conducted among Type II DM patients with and without DR in the department of Endocrinology with a sample size of 150 with DM patients in 2018. Data were expressed as mean, standard deviation, proportions, Chi-Square, t-test test and Binary Logistic Regression analysis.
Results: Diabetic patients 150 were identified as Type II DM as per inclusion criteria with aged 30 years and above. Among 150 Diabetic patients, 39 (26%) patients had Diabetic Retinopathy and 111 (74%) patients were not having Diabetic Retinopathy. The association between groups (with and no DR) and duration of DM were very highly significant with p-value < 0.01. DR prevalence was higher in female when compared with male population.
Conclusion: From our study, we have concluded that the prevalence of DR was very high. DR was strongly associated with HbA1C, FBS, duration of DM, medication, duration of hypertension and smoking. Hence, there is a need for regular screening check-up with ophthalmologist to prevent diabetic retinopathy or to prolong or to escape from the vision loss.

The importance of routine health check ups - CureEZ.pdfCureEZ
The importance of routine health check-ups cannot be overstated, particularly in the rapidly changing Indian healthcare environment. Regular health check-ups are crucial for preventive healthcare, supported by robust scientific evidence from across the world. Numerous studies highlight the benefits of routine screenings and examinations in promoting overall well-being. For instance, a study published in the Journal of General Internal Medicine emphasizes that regular check-ups lead to early detection of health issues, improving treatment outcomes. Early intervention has been linked to better survival rates in diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular conditions (JAMA Network Open).
Regular health check-ups are particularly relevant to people in India due to the unique healthcare challenges and conditions prevalent in the country. India faces a dual burden of infectious diseases and a rapidly rising incidence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory illnesses.

Abstract—Diabetes Mellitus is a lifestyle disease it is increasing with increase of urbanization. It is a side effect of development. Nowadays with the development of community it is also on increase trend. So this study was conducted on 250 patients of diabetes attended at Diabetic Clinic of SMS Hospital Jaipur, with the aim to find out socio-demographic profile of these diabetes cases. General information about the these case was gathered in a pre-designed semi-structured performa. It was found in this study that majority of cases were in age group of 31 to 45 years with slight male dominance. Education wise majority were Graduate followed by secondary educated and others. Likewise occupation wise majority were either unemployed of professional. Majority of cases were from Socio economic Class II and III. So it can be concluded that diabetes is a disease of middle age slight male dominance and of educated middle class individuals. Further studies are required to establish this fact.
People in the age group of 24 to 39 years, who have been living in big metros or booming small towns, are at the risk of being obese, a recent study has suggested.The study puts an alarming 70 per cent of Indias urban population in the obese or overweight category. And, at risk is the generation that Facebooks rather than go over to meet friends, bonds over gaming sessions on Playstations or X boxes rather than play cricket or badminton, the study warns.The national capital faces the ignominy of being the obesity capital of the country, while Chandigarh shares the top spot with Delhi.While declining sex ratio has been a concern in the country for years, there is now a new worrying trend emerging in the cities. The number of obese women in urban areas has been on the rise. Every second member of the fairer sex falls into this category.And, for long, Indias young population has been touted as Indias USP in the globalised economy. However, it also seems to be hit by the severe problem of obesity. For, it is the 24 39 age group that is the worst affected.Why urban India Experts suggest obesity has to do with the lifestyle of the majority of the population in urban India. The urban populace has easy access to high calorie packaged foods such as burgers, chips and colas.

The document discusses the health care challenges in India. It notes that India faces a triple burden of diseases from communicable diseases, emerging non-communicable diseases, and emerging infectious diseases. This puts pressure on India's public health system. Some key health care challenges include lagging health indicators, a growing disease burden, inadequate health planning and infrastructure, inequitable resource distribution between rural and urban areas, shortages of health professionals and facilities, and low government health spending. To address these challenges, the document recommends strengthening public health systems with a focus on prevention, improving resource utilization, regulating the private sector, and ensuring universal access to quality health care through long-term planning.
ASEFSU23 Background Paper Child Obesity In IndiaNathan Mathis
This document discusses the growing crisis of childhood obesity in India, focusing on Delhi. It finds that childhood obesity levels are increasing, especially in urban areas and among affluent families. This is linked to factors of urbanization like reduced physical activity and increased access to unhealthy, calorie-dense foods. Children in Delhi are 5 times more likely to be overweight than rural children due to different diets and lifestyles. If left unaddressed, childhood obesity can lead to lifelong health issues and economic costs. The document calls for policy measures that consider the urban factors driving obesity and link urban development programs to addressing this issue.
The document provides an overview of the Indian healthcare industry and infrastructure. It notes that the industry is growing rapidly at 17% CAGR and is projected to reach $280 billion by 2020. Key drivers of growth include rising incomes, health awareness, lifestyle diseases, and insurance penetration. However, healthcare spending and infrastructure in India remains low compared to global standards. The private sector dominates healthcare delivery, accounting for around 80% of total spending. The government is taking initiatives to boost diagnostic infrastructure through public-private partnerships.
Coorelation study between hdi and epidemiological transition ratio among indi...subhash chandra
Per capita disease burden measured as DALY rate has dropped by about a third in India over the past 26 years. However, the magnitude and causes of disease burden and the risk factors vary greatly between the states.
The change to dominance of NCDs and injuries over CMNNDs occurred about a quarter century apart in the four ETL state groups. Nevertheless, the burden of some of the leading CMNNDs continues to be very high, especially in the lowest ETL states.
This comprehensive mapping of inequalities in disease burden and its causes across the states of India can be a crucial input for more specific health planning for each state [5]
India faces a double disease burden. Concrete measures need to address the rising epidemic of NCDs but also keep the momentum towards progress on preventable infectious diseases, maternal and child mortality. NCDs along with injuries make up the largest disease burden in India (62% of DALYs) [6]

Health System in India: Opportunities and Challenges for EnhancementsIOSRJBM
One of the basic vitalities of good living is quick access to essential services like health care. But many times it could mean a condition of life and death for an individual who is unable to get the access to these services. Thus an important part of social sector development is incomplete without adequate health care facilities. The quality of human health is the foundation upon which the realization of life goals and objectives of a persona, the community or nation as whole depends. It is both an end and means of development strategy. The relationship between health and development is mutually reinforcing- while health contributes to economic development, economic development, in turn, tends to improve the health status of the population in a country. India as a nation has been growing economically at a rapid pace particularly after the advent of New Economic Policy of 1991. However, this rapid economic development has not been accompanied by social development particularly health sector development. Health sector has been accorded very low priority in terms of allocation of resources. Public expenditure on health is less than 1 per cent of GDP in India. This research paper focuses on the current status of the Indian healthcare industry, the challenges faced plus the comparison of few selected Indian states based on health indicators. Furthermore comparison of India with some developed and developing countries is also employed in order get the clear picture of the health sector. In order to boost the development line, some opportunities in the health care industry are also discussed and necessary policy implications. Regarding in this connection India lags behind in regard of health improvement as compared to U.S.A, Canada, China, and Brazil, but contrary to other developing countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh the scenario is better with life expectancy, Mortality ratios, health care spending speak volumes about the healthcare status. When analyzed through the prism eye, within India there are large disparities amongst states in achieving health outcomes as well. Before liberalization the improvement was at a snail’s pace, but after liberalization the whole picture changed because the key initiatives to improve the current healthcare standard a two prong strategy focusing on the infrastructure needs and the technology solution were implemented, which resulted in the healthy scenario of the healthcare industry. Healthcare sector, a leading weapon as the contributor to GDP (approx.8%) is thus the matter to be deeply looked into, so that golden harvest is reaped.

This document summarizes India's health system and discusses opportunities for improvement. It notes that while India has made progress on health indicators, there are large gaps between states and COVID-19 has exposed weaknesses in the system. It calls for increased public financing through prioritizing health budgets, spending reforms, and intergovernmental reforms focused on equity. Service delivery reforms are also needed through decentralized, context-specific approaches rather than "one-size-fits-all." Investments in public health functions like disease surveillance are important. Overall, the document advocates for a more robust, equitable, and responsive health system aligned with the needs of the 21st century.
Consumption of Junk Foods and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes: A ReviewAI Publications
This document summarizes a review article that explores the relationship between consumption of junk food and type 2 diabetes. It finds that junk food, which is high in calories, salt, and saturated fat and low in nutrients, is directly linked to higher body mass index and insulin resistance. Consuming junk food contributes to a positive energy balance and obesity, which are the primary risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes. Recurrent junk food intake increases the likelihood of type 2 diabetes, especially among youth and women. Adopting a diet high in whole grains, fruits and vegetables and low in processed meats and sugar-sweetened drinks can help reduce the risk.

These include - financing and investments in Primary healthcare, education and training facilities – medical and public health, availability of essential drugs to all, expansion of universal health coverage and addressing health beyond healthcare etc. The report identifies PPPs to be a game changer in Public Health Delivery.
Food security issues in India acquired prominence in public policy debate through the 2000s, resulting in promulgation of schemes like the National Rural Health Mission, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act and the National Food Security Bill. The aura of high hopes built around these interventions almost completely absolves the role of the present social, economic and political system in leading to the precarious situation of the people. The mainstream debate on poverty and hunger has been sequestered within the safe margins defined by the present system. An alternative opinion critical of the present, social, economic and political structure has been an anathema to the mainstream debate. The present Modi government is intent on giving a go by even to the marginal gains that may have resulted from the social sector interventions mentioned above. The book – Food Security in India Myth and Reality is an effort to articulate an alternative for which there seems little scope in the mainstream debate. It is a political treatise on food security in India and an argument for the implementation of radical land reforms as the fulcrum of India’s social, economic and political transformation. The arguments there in are ”˜polemical’, ”˜tremendous’ and ”˜value laden’ because there can be no a polemical and value neutral position vis a vis issues that hinge on the power relations in the society.

This document summarizes research on lifestyles and health among various age, sex, and professional groups in India. It finds that as India has developed, communicable diseases have declined but non-communicable diseases are rising. Urbanization brings both better access to healthcare but also unhealthy lifestyles like poor diets and stress. While some professions like farming have healthier habits, others like many jobs face ergonomic and chemical risks. Overall monitoring of disease patterns is needed to address India's changing health challenges.
Covid impact on Indian health system and how does it made a combackUjwalReddyPB
This document provides an overview of India's health system and its performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. It finds that while India has made progress on health indicators, there are large gaps between states. COVID-19 has exposed weaknesses in areas like public health functions, service delivery readiness, urban health systems, and underfunding of health. It argues for increased government health financing, spending reforms, service delivery reforms tailored to each state's needs, and investments in public health to build a stronger health system for the 21st century.
Background: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of Diabetic Retinopathy and to find the associated risk factors of DR among known Type II DM patients.
Materials and Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional and single center study was conducted among Type II DM patients with and without DR in the department of Endocrinology with a sample size of 150 with DM patients in 2018. Data were expressed as mean, standard deviation, proportions, Chi-Square, t-test test and Binary Logistic Regression analysis.
Results: Diabetic patients 150 were identified as Type II DM as per inclusion criteria with aged 30 years and above. Among 150 Diabetic patients, 39 (26%) patients had Diabetic Retinopathy and 111 (74%) patients were not having Diabetic Retinopathy. The association between groups (with and no DR) and duration of DM were very highly significant with p-value < 0.01. DR prevalence was higher in female when compared with male population.
Conclusion: From our study, we have concluded that the prevalence of DR was very high. DR was strongly associated with HbA1C, FBS, duration of DM, medication, duration of hypertension and smoking. Hence, there is a need for regular screening check-up with ophthalmologist to prevent diabetic retinopathy or to prolong or to escape from the vision loss.

The importance of routine health check ups - CureEZ.pdfCureEZ
The importance of routine health check-ups cannot be overstated, particularly in the rapidly changing Indian healthcare environment. Regular health check-ups are crucial for preventive healthcare, supported by robust scientific evidence from across the world. Numerous studies highlight the benefits of routine screenings and examinations in promoting overall well-being. For instance, a study published in the Journal of General Internal Medicine emphasizes that regular check-ups lead to early detection of health issues, improving treatment outcomes. Early intervention has been linked to better survival rates in diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular conditions (JAMA Network Open).
Regular health check-ups are particularly relevant to people in India due to the unique healthcare challenges and conditions prevalent in the country. India faces a dual burden of infectious diseases and a rapidly rising incidence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory illnesses.

The Impact of Digital Media on the Decentralization of Power and the Erosion ...ijtsrd
The impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has gained considerable attention in recent years. The adoption of digital technologies and the internet has resulted in declining influence and power for traditional gatekeepers such as publishing houses and news organizations. Simultaneously, digital media has facilitated the emergence of new voices and players in the media industry. Digital medias impact on power decentralization and gatekeeper erosion is visible in several ways. One significant aspect is the democratization of information, which enables anyone with an internet connection to publish and share content globally, leading to citizen journalism and bypassing traditional gatekeepers. Another aspect is the disruption of conventional media industry business models, as traditional organizations struggle to adjust to the decrease in advertising revenue and the rise of digital platforms. Alternative business models, such as subscription models and crowdfunding, have become more prevalent, leading to the emergence of new players. Overall, the impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has brought about significant changes in the media landscape and the way information is shared. Further research is required to fully comprehend the implications of these changes and their impact on society.

Comparative Analysis of Total Corporate Disclosure of Selected IT Companies o...ijtsrd
Disclosure is a process through which a business enterprise communicates with external parties. A corporate disclosure is communication of financial and non financial information of the activities of a business enterprise to the interested entities. Corporate disclosure is done through publishing annual reports. So corporate disclosure through annual reports plays a vital role in the life of all the companies and provides valuable information to investors. The basic objectives of corporate disclosure is to give a true and fair view of companies to the parties related either directly or indirectly like owner, government, creditors, shareholders etc. in the companies act, provisions have been made about mandatory and voluntary disclosure. The IT sector in India is rapidly growing, the trend to invest in the IT sector is rising and employment opportunities in IT sectors are also increasing. Therefore the IT sector is expected to have fair, full and adequate disclosure of all information. Unfair and incomplete disclosure may adversely affect the entire economy. A research study on disclosure practices of IT companies could play an important role in this regard. Hence, the present research study has been done to study and review comparative analysis of total corporate disclosure of selected IT companies of India and to put forward overall findings and suggestions with a view to increase disclosure score of these companies.

Is there any scope to use English as a language rather than a subject How much we learn or teach English without any interference of mother language specially in the classroom teaching learning scenario in West Bengal By considering all these issues the researcher has attempted in this article to focus on the effective teaching learning process comparing to other traditional strategies in the field of English curriculum at the secondary level to investigate whether they fulfill the present teaching learning requirements or not by examining the validity of the present curriculum of English. The purpose of this study is to focus on the effectiveness of the systematic, scientific, sequential and logical transaction of the course between the teachers and the learners in the perspective of the 5Es programme that is engage, explore, explain, extend and evaluate.

The Role of Mentoring and Its Influence on the Effectiveness of the Teaching ...ijtsrd
This paper reports on a study which was conducted to investigate the role of mentoring and its influence on the effectiveness of the teaching of Physics in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. The study adopted the convergent parallel mixed methods design, focusing on respondents in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, analysed separately, and the results were compared to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. The quantitative analysis found that majority of the respondents 72 of Physics teachers affirmed that they had more experienced colleagues as mentors to help build their confidence, improve their teaching, and help them improve their effectiveness and efficiency in guiding learners’ achievements. Only 28 of the respondents disagreed with these statements. With majority respondents 72 agreeing with the statements, it implies that in most secondary schools, experienced Physics teachers act as mentors to build teachers’ confidence in teaching and improving students’ learning. The interview qualitative data analysis summarized how secondary school Principals use meetings with mentors and mentees to promote mentorship in the school milieu. This has helped strengthen teachers’ classroom practices in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. With the results confirming each other, the study recommends that mentoring should focus on helping teachers employ social interactions and instructional practices feedback and clarity in teaching that have direct measurable impact on students’ learning achievements.

Design Simulation and Hardware Construction of an Arduino Microcontroller Bas...ijtsrd
This study primarily focuses on the design of a high side buck converter using an Arduino microcontroller. The converter is specifically intended for use in DC DC applications, particularly in standalone solar PV systems where the PV output voltage exceeds the load or battery voltage. To evaluate the performance of the converter, simulation experiments are conducted using Proteus Software. These simulations provide insights into the input and output voltages, currents, powers, and efficiency under different state of charge SoC conditions of a 12V,70Ah rechargeable lead acid battery. Additionally, the hardware design of the converter is implemented, and practical data is collected through operation, monitoring, and recording. By comparing the simulation results with the practical results, the efficiency and performance of the designed converter are assessed. The findings indicate that while the buck converter is suitable for practical use in standalone PV systems, its efficiency is compromised due to a lower output current.

Sustainable Energy by Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O. Sadikuijtsrd
Energy becomes sustainable if it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some of the definitions of sustainable energy include the considerations of environmental aspects such as greenhouse gas emissions, social, and economic aspects such as energy poverty. Generally far more sustainable than fossil fuel are renewable energy sources such as wind, hydroelectric power, solar, and geothermal energy sources. Worthy of note is that some renewable energy projects, like the clearing of forests to produce biofuels, can cause severe environmental damage. The sustainability of nuclear power which is a low carbon source is highly debated because of concerns about radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation, and accidents. The switching from coal to natural gas has environmental benefits, including a lower climate impact, but could lead to delay in switching to more sustainable options. “Carbon capture and storage” can be built into power plants to remove the carbon dioxide CO2 emissions, but this technology is expensive and has rarely been implemented. Leading non renewable energy sources around the world is fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Nuclear energy is usually considered another non renewable energy source, although nuclear energy itself is a renewable energy source, but the material used in nuclear power plants is not. The paper addresses the issue of sustainable energy, its attendant benefits to the future generation, and humanity in general. Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O.

Concepts for Sudan Survey Act Implementations Executive Regulations and Stand...ijtsrd
This paper aims to outline the executive regulations, survey standards, and specifications required for the implementation of the Sudan Survey Act, and for regulating and organizing all surveying work activities in Sudan. The act has been discussed for more than 5 years. The Land Survey Act was initiated by the Sudan Survey Authority and all official legislations were headed by the Sudan Ministry of Justice till it was issued in 2022. The paper presents conceptual guidelines to be used for the Survey Act implementation and to regulate the survey work practice, standardizing the field surveys, processing, quality control, procedures, and the processes related to survey work carried out by the stakeholders and relevant authorities in Sudan. The conceptual guidelines are meant to improve the quality and harmonization of geospatial data and to aid decision making processes as well as geospatial information systems. The established comprehensive executive regulations will govern and regulate the implementation of the Sudan Survey Geomatics Act in all surveying and mapping practices undertaken by the Sudan Survey Authority SSA and state local survey departments for public or private sector organizations. The targeted standards and specifications include the reference frame, projection, coordinate systems, and the guidelines and specifications that must be followed in the field of survey work, processes, and mapping products. In the last few decades, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of geomatics activities and measurements on the Earths surface in space and time, together with observing and mapping the changes. In such cases, data must be captured promptly, standardized, and obtained with more accuracy and specified in much detail. The paper will also highlight the current situation in Sudan, the degree to which survey standards are used, the problems encountered, and the errors that arise from not using the standards and survey specifications.

Towards the Implementation of the Sudan Interpolated Geoid Model Khartoum Sta...ijtsrd
The discussions between ellipsoid and geoid have invoked many researchers during the recent decades, especially during the GNSS technology era, which had witnessed a great deal of development but still geoid undulation requires more investigations. To figure out a solution for Sudans local geoid, this research has tried to intake the possibility of determining the geoid model by following two approaches, gravimetric and geometrical geoid model determination, by making use of GNSS leveling benchmarks at Khartoum state. The Benchmarks are well distributed in the study area, in which, the horizontal coordinates and the height above the ellipsoid have been observed by GNSS while orthometric heights were carried out using precise leveling. The Global Geopotential Model GGM represented in EGM2008 has been exploited to figure out the geoid undulation at the benchmarks in the study area. This is followed by a fitting process, that has been done to suit the geoid undulation data which has been computed using GNSS leveling data and geoid undulation inspired by the EGM2008. Two geoid surfaces were created after the fitting process to ensure that they are identical and both of them could be counted for getting the same geoid undulation with an acceptable accuracy. In this respect, statistical operation played an important role in ensuring the consistency and integrity of the model by applying cross validation techniques splitting the data into training and testing datasets for building the geoid model and testing its eligibility. The geometrical solution for geoid undulation computation has been utilized by applying straightforward equations that facilitate the calculation of the geoid undulation directly through applying statistical techniques for the GNSS leveling data of the study area to get the common equation parameters values that could be utilized to calculate geoid undulation of any position in the study area within the claimed accuracy. Both systems were checked and proved eligible to be used within the study area with acceptable accuracy which may contribute to solving the geoid undulation problem in the Khartoum area, and be further generalized to determine the geoid model over the entire country, and this could be considered in the future, for regional and continental geoid model.

Integration of Indian Indigenous Knowledge System in Management Prospects and...ijtsrd
The diversity of indigenous knowledge systems in India is vast and can vary significantly between different communities and regions. Preserving and respecting these knowledge systems is crucial for maintaining cultural heritage, promoting sustainable practices, and fostering cross cultural understanding. In this paper, an overview of the prospects and challenges associated with incorporating Indian indigenous knowledge into management is explored. It is found that IIKS helps in management in many areas like sustainable development, tourism, food security, natural resource management, cultural preservation and innovation, etc. However, IIKS integration with management faces some challenges in the form of a lack of documentation, cultural sensitivity, language barriers legal framework, etc. Savita Lathwal "Integration of Indian Indigenous Knowledge System in Management: Prospects and Challenges" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-8 | Issue-1 , February 2024, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd63500.pdf Paper Url: https://www.ijtsrd.com/management/accounting-and-finance/63500/integration-of-indian-indigenous-knowledge-system-in-management-prospects-and-challenges/savita-lathwal

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

and the current unprecedented epidemic of diabetes
on the backdrop of multigenerational maternal
undernutrition in the country. India has been at the
forefront of the DOHaD research for over two
decades. Both retrospective and prospective birth
cohorts in India provide evidence for the role of
impaired early-life nutrition on the later diabetes risk.
These studies show that in a transitioning country
such as India, maternal undernutrition (of
micronutrients) and overnutrition (gestational
diabetes) co-exist, and expose the offspring to disease
risk through multiple pathways. Currently, the Indian
scientists are embarking on complex mechanistic and
intervention studies to find solutions for the diabetes
susceptibility of this population. However, a few
unresolved issues in this context warrant continued
research and a cautious approach.[1,2]
Diabetes is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide and a major problem in India. In
2012, 60% of all deaths in India were due to non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including cardiovascular
diseases (26%), chronic respiratory diseases (13%), cancer (7%), diabetes (2%) and other NCDs (12%) .
Currently accounting for 43% of total disability adjusted life years (DALYs), the prevalence of NCDs is
expected to increase in the coming years due to ongoing large-scale urbanisation and increasing life expectancy .
The prevalence of diabetes in 2013 in India is only slightly higher than the world average (9.1% vs. 8.3%
worldwide) [3]. However, due to its very large population, India has the world’s largest population living with
diabetes after China. In 2013, there were 65.1 million people between 20 and 79 years of age with diabetes and
this number was predicted to rise to 109 million by 2035. The growing epidemic of type 2 diabetes in India has
been highlighted in several studies .
Studies have shown large regional and socioeconomic differences in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes in India.
Self-reported prevalence is lower in rural areas than in urban areas ranging from 3.1% in rural areas to 7.3% in
urban areas .The disease appears to be more prevalent in the south of the country as compared to the northern
and eastern parts . However, the absence of large well-planned national studies on diabetes prevalence have led
to incomplete and unreliable nationwide data on the prevalence of diabetes in India .[3,4]

Financing and delivery of health care in India has been left largely to the private sector .In 2012, public health
care funding was lower in India than other countries in the region, with a general government funding for health
accounting for 33% of total health expenditure in India compared to an average of 52% in the South East Asia
region .Nevertheless, at 4% of India’s gross domestic product (GDP) the share of health expenditure is
equivalent to the average of the South East Asia region .
At the 56th
World Health Assembly in Geneva in 2012, universal health coverage was identified as essential to
consolidate public health advances . While various health programmes and policies have previously attempted to
achieve universal health coverage in India, there is still a long way to go. In 2010, only about 19 percent of the
population (240 million people) was covered by the country’s central and state government-sponsored health
insurance .When including private insurance and other schemes, some 25 percent of the population (300 million
people) was covered .Thus, the financial burden of health care falls heavily on individuals with the government
contributing to one third of total health spending and out-of-pocket payments representing about 58% of total
health spend in 2012 .
The assessment of the economic and social impact of diabetes in India is important for several reasons. First,
India is considered the diabetes capital of the world ,yet not enough is done to tackle the disease. An article
published in 2007 suggests that an estimated USD 2.2 billion would be needed to sufficiently treat all cases of
type 2 diabetes in India .In comparison, health spending per capita in 2012 was USD 61 .Second, by 2025, most
people with diabetes in developing countries will be in the 45 to 64 year age group, thus threatening the
economic productivity of the country and the income-earning ability of individuals .Third, the management of
diabetes and its complications can be expensive, which poses serious obstacles to the strengthening of the Indian
health care system and the Government’s plan to achieve universal health coverage by 2022.[5,6]
As the burden of diabetes on total health care spending is likely to increase and, potentially, will have important
consequences on the sustainability of health care financing, this study presents a critical review of the literature
on cost of illness of diabetes and its complications in India and also makes recommendations on areas requiring
further attention and research.
Discussion
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia, due to
impaired insulin secretion, resistance to peripheral actions of insulin, or both. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes
(T2DM) in India is around 7.3%. It is seen that commonly patients take consultation from general practitioners,
mostly MBBS and AYUSH doctors. Also, doctors qualified to treat T2DM, who possess either of the following
degrees, i.e., MD Medicine, DNB Medicine, DM Endocrinology, or Diploma/Fellowship in Diabetology are
expected to follow the guidelines given by various professional bodies like the American Diabetes Association.
Looking at the present epidemiology of T2DM in different geographic locations of India and the scarcity of
qualified diabetologists, it is likely that care received by the patients may vary in quality. The present study was
conducted with an objective to understand the symptoms of T2DM at diagnosis, treatment protocols followed by
various categories of medical practitioners, and awareness among the patients regarding diabetes reversal by
lifestyle modification in India. The rationale of this study was to provide an analysis of the quality of diabetes
care received by the patients. A total of 48.2% of the participants were tested for HbA1c at the time of diagnosis.
The essential investigations to be done at the time of diagnosis as given by the ADA guidelines, which are both
fasting and post-prandial blood sugar and HbA1c were done by 38.1%.A total of 3% and 2.7% of the

participants were diagnosed to have diabetes only on the basis of only post-prandial and fasting blood sugar,
respectively. [7,8] Before starting antidiabetic medications, 45.7% got their lipid profile done; 28.7%, 26.1%,
14.8%, and 18.3% got their serum creatinine, blood urea, urine micro albumin, and serum glutamic-pyruvic
transaminase (SGPT) checked, respectively. A total of 15.8% were evaluated for retinopathy, 14.5% for vitamin
B12, and 13.5% for vitamin D levels. After being diagnosed with diabetes, 54.9% were started with antidiabetic
medication on the same day, whereas 16.4% had not started any antidiabetic medication yet. Diabetes care is
complex and requires many issues beyond glycemic control.
The standard guidelines are intended to provide clinicians, patients, and researchers with the components of
diabetes care, treatment goals, and tools to evaluate the quality of care.These recommendations favorably affect
the health outcomes and quality of life of the patients diagnosed with T2DM and, therefore, must be followed
meticulously by all the medical practitioners irrespective of their qualification and specialization. One of the
important aspects our article infers is that there are parts of India where doctors with specialization are not
available, which does not mean that the doctors available in that area should not be allowed to treat the patients
with T2DM; however, these doctors must follow the guidelines proposed by various bodies nationally and
internationally, instead of following the local trends of management of T2DM.[9,10]
Results
This study has aided in adding to the pre-existing data on diabetes care given in India. The results of this study
are found to be barely satisfying the global standards of diabetes care proposed by various bodies, and this is the
condition in metro cities of India, which questions the care given in rural areas, where there is a scarcity of
health professionals and services. Therefore, it implies the need for training and continued medical education of
all the doctors belonging to different fraternities, who practice management of T2DM patients on a regular basis.
T2DM has reached epidemic proportions and is one of the leading causes of premature morbidity and mortality
worldwide. Frequent eating, overeating, junk food, and low levels of physical activity are commonplace and are
major factors for the global epidemic of obesity. Given that lifestyle modification is safe and cost-effective, its
importance should be stressed not only upon the diagnosis of diabetes but throughout the course of the
disease.[11,12] Once type 2 diabetes is diagnosed, it is of utmost importance that patients receive optimum
standard of care to avoid complications. Considering the high cost incurred at various steps of screening,
diagnosis, monitoring, and management, it is important to realize that cost-effective measures of lifestyle
modification should gain importance among all medical practitioners and should be practiced routinely.

Rapidly changing socioeconomic demographics have changed the global landscape of diabetes. Geographically,
the prevalence of diabetes has been studied by many expert groups. The extreme locations contribute to variance
in the diabetes prevalence rates, not only across the longitude and latitude, but also across rural and urban areas
of the country.[15,16]
Considering the enormous burden of diabetes in India, it is important to realize the necessary cost-effective
measures of diabetes care: early screening, tight metabolic control, monitoring of risk factors, and assessment of
organ damage. Economic analyses of diabetes care in India found that the cost of providing routine care is only a
fraction of the overall cost and is perhaps still manageable. However, when this is not available or its quality is
poor, the overall direct and indirect costs escalate with disastrous health and economic consequences to the
individual, his or her family, and society, particularly due to the onset of the micro- and macrovascular
complications of the disease. Published data from several epidemiologic, experimental human and animal
studies, and from several large trials like the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial, the Kumamoto study,
and the UK Prospective Diabetes Study Group have convincingly demonstrated the importance of tight
metabolic control in arresting and preventing the progression of target organ damage.[17,18]
Conclusions
Diabetes is one of the most widespread lifestyle diseases affecting people globally. In a recent study in the
Annals of Epidemiology, Elsevier, it was concluded that diabetes has risen sharply in India in the last couple
decades both in urban and rural populations across all age groups (20-99 years) and gender demographic.
India has the second largest population of diabetics with 76 million people suffering currently. By 2025, 10% of
the population is likely to be affected by diabetes.
Pain-points & solutions
Close monitoring of blood sugar requires uncomfortable blood draws and needle pricks. Continuous glucose
monitoring (CGM), a compact medical equipment consisting of a small sensor, which needs to be changed every
10-14 days, inserted on the abdomen or upper arm to take readings from interstitial fluid in real time and a
monitor to display results, is capable of ameliorating this discomfort.

Instead of finger pricking, patients can simply scan the sensor to receive results. Some CGM devices have a
smartphone app and some allow patients to add caregivers to the data stream. The real time results can notify
patients of impending hypoglycaemia. CGM also effectively eliminates finger stick testing and is capable of
identifying nightly fluctuations, storing data, help reducing HbA1C levels and maintaining a healthy blood
glucose range.
Almost 25% of Type 1 Diabetes patients already use CGM devices and it is expected that 50% patients will start
using them between 2020-2025.[19]
The major companies involved in the Indian CGM market include Abbott, Medtronic., Dexcom etc. to name a
few. For instance, the Abbott Freestyle Libre device was recently launched in India and has quickly gained
popularity amongst Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes patients. By 2021, Abbott is primed to launch their software to
collate the data on smart devices.
Advent of digital apps has simplified diabetes management and control. The primarily used apps can be grouped
under glucose tracker apps, blood glucose knowledge apps and calorie tracker and exercise apps. The adoption
of digital diabetes monitoring solutions is anticipated to rise at a CAGR of 21% by 2027.
Technologically healthy- The emergence of health apps
Several startups in India are using deep learning and artificial intelligence to track diabetes patients’ status,
provide diet plans, and offer specialist advice.
HealthifyMe, Bengaluru, established in 2012, works on lifestyle diseases. With conversational artificial
intelligence (AI), Ria, capable of answering nutritional queries by combining technological prowess and advice
from professionals, suggests diet routines to better manage diabetes.
Artelus, 2015, based in Bengaluru, USA and Dubai,
uses a deep-learning, AI powered algorithm, DRISTi
to allow early detection of diabetic retinopathy from
high-powered images of the patients’ retina.
BeatO, based in Delhi, established in 2015, provides
smart diet options by identifying the patients’
glycaemic index and suggesting proper food items.
Oburculum, founded in 2016 in Chennai, is a unique
app that uses AI on genomic data to swiftly diagnose
disease like diabetes, cancer and neurological disease
with surprising efficiency and prevent delay.
ChironX, 2017, headquartered in Gurugram, detects
retinal disorders associated with diabetes by analysing
retinal fundus images with an accuracy of more than
95%.

Wellthy Therapeutics, based in Mumbai and
Bengaluru, is bringing affordable disease
management to patients with readily available
nutritionists, fitness coaches and counsellors to guide
them into preventing, managing and even reversing
chronic conditions.
Artificial intelligence-based healthcare has received
much impetus in India in recent years. Bridging the
gap between patients and doctors and making
healthcare affordable for people across all income
strata has been the basic motive for developing AI-
based solutions. The market might be prepared for AI
technologies but there are several impediments ahead,
most importantly, data security. AI-based healthcare
services require collection of data from previous
studies which must be protected to prevent misuse
and identity theft.
Pancreas on silicon
Scientists from Harvard University in the US are
attempting to develop Islet chips to study beta cells of
the pancreas that produce insulin. Islet chips are
microchips that monitor whether the donated or
manufactured beta cells are capable of normal
functioning and insulin release. Diabetes mellitus
directly results from insulin desensitization of the
body. Pancreas beta cells can be transplanted but that
does not ensure their functionality. Islet chips can
help determine this before transplant. Although this
technology is at the nascent stage, it presents an
exciting prospect on the road towards reduction and
eventual eradication of diabetes.
Enormous strides have been made to merge our lives
with technology, enabling us to simplify life in every
possible way. Healthcare is a significant part of daily
routines, especially for those with chronic diseases
such as diabetes. Monitoring apps, AI-based
technology, etc. are making healthcare more
streamlined and convenient for patients as well as
caregivers.[20]
