    Abstract Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) may mimic many endocrine syndromes, including Cushing syndrome (CS) secondary to ectopic ACTH secretion. Radiotherapy (RT) is often used as adjuvant therapy for such persistent or recurrent NETs. However, RT may predispose a susceptible person to a second malignancy. Here, we reported the story of a 37-year-old male, who presented with progressive weight loss, bone pain, and shortness of breath in the emergency department. He was diagnosed with CS secondary to a carcinoid tumor in the bronchopulmonary tree a decade previous and underwent total bilateral adrenalectomy. He also underwent lobectomy, and subsequent RT for a primary NET and was in clinical remission. His presenting symptoms were considered a recurrence of pulmonary NETs. However, the biopsy suggested high-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC). MEC of the lung is a rare tumor with a prevalence of <1% of all lung malignancies. MEC of the lung after RT for bronchial NET-causing ectopic CS has not yet been reported in the literature. The present patient did not survive despite achieving remission of CS and primary tumor because of the aggressive second malignancy attributed to RT, which was given for the primary tumor.

    Abstract Background: Diabetes self-care behaviour plays a crucial role in managing the diabetes effectively and preventing complications. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and health care professionals (HCPs) of rural areas often face unique challenges when it comes to diabetes self-care practices (SCPs). Therefore, this study aim to explore the perspectives of patients with T2DM and HCPs on diabetes SCPs.
    Methods: Eight focus group discussions (FGDs) among individuals with T2DM and In-depth interviews (IDIs) with 15 HCPs were conducted in rural areas of Punjab, North India. Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, and Behaviour model (COM-B) was employed for thematic framework analyses.
    Results: The study participants perceived that a limited understanding of diabetes mellitus (DM), beliefs in alternative therapies, drug side effects, attitudes towards DM (psychological capability), comorbidities (physical capability), family support (social opportunity), financial and time constraints, and weather conditions (physical opportunity) contributed to lack of DM SCPs. Physicians' guidance and support were motivating them to adhere to SCPs, especially when aligned with their sense of self-efficacy (reflective motivation). HCPs constraints in providing patient-centred care are due to training limitations (psychological capability) and a lack of essential resources (physical opportunities). Participants expressed need for comprehensive diabetes care (automatic motivation) through structured diabetes education intervention to improve diabetes SCPs.
    Conclusions: The study findings indicate that various factors influence diabetes SCPs from the perspectives of both patients with T2DM and HCPs and emphasizes the need for a multi-faceted approach to improve diabetes SCPs in rural areas. Implementing a structured diabetes self-care intervention strategy in rural areas may help for preventing and mitigating the impact of diabetes-related complications in rural areas.

    Abstract Introduction The management of diabetes mellitus (DM) depends on medication adherence, self-care and regular follow-up to prevent complications and premature mortality. This study aims to develop and implement the behavioural change theory and model based diabetes self-care intervention package to improve self-care practices among people living with type 2 DM.Methods and analysis An exploratory sequential mixed-method study design wherein, quantitative follows qualitative will be used to develop, implement and evaluate the effect of diabetes self-care intervention package among people living with type 2 diabetes. The qualitative research method will be used to identify barriers and facilitators for self-care practices among people living with type 2 DM and will also provide the basis for the development of the diabetes self-care intervention package. The quasi-experimental with control study design will be used to evaluate the developed intervention package among 220 randomly selected people living with type 2 diabetes in both intervention and control arms. Baseline, follow-ups and endline data will be collected using same prevalidated and structured questionnaire for each self-care activity. Difference-in-difference analysis will be used to measure for changes in the proportion of people living with type 2 DM doing different component of self-care practices, preintervention and postintervention in both arms.Ethics and dissemination Permission for conducting the study has been taken from Institutional Ethical Committee of PGIMER, Chandigarh (Ref no. NK/4538/PhD/226, Dated 18.08.18). The findings of the trial will be disseminated through publication in peer-reviewed journals.Trial registration number CTRI/2018/10/016108; Pre-results.

    Abstract Background and aims: Drugs for diabetes are required to demonstrate cardiovascular safety through CV outcome trials (CVOT). The pre-defined end-points for cardiovascular outcome studies may not be sufficient to capture all clinically relevant atherosclerotic cardio vascular disease (ASCVD) events particularly peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
    Methods: We planned a scoping review and searched database to identify CVOT conducted in population with diabetes measuring lower limb events due to PAD as the primary outcome measure. We also searched CVOT for reported differential cardiovascular outcomes in population with PAD.
    Results: We identified that CV outcomes are measured as 3 point major adverse cardiovascular outcomes (3P-MACE) that includes nonfatal MI and nonfatal stroke or 4P-MACE that included additional unstable angina which is further expanded to 5P-MACE by the inclusion of hospitalization for heart failure (HHF). These CV end points are captured as surrogate for CV mortality based on the biological plausibility of relation between the surrogate and final outcome from pathophysiological studies. We found the prevalence of PAD is no lesser than other CV events in people with diabetes. Moreover, PAD contributes to the significant morbidity associated with diabetes as a surrogate for mortality. However, none of the CVOT with anti-diabetic drugs include PAD events as primary outcome measure despite the inclusion of 6-25 % participants with PAD in major CVOT. PAD outcomes are objectively measurable with tibial arterial waveforms and clinical end-point as lower extremity amputation. PAD outcomes do improve with treatment including intensive glycemic control and novel oral anticoagulants. We suggest the inclusion of PAD to MACE as a pre-specified outcome for a comprehensive capture of major adverse vascular event in future studies for people with diabetes.
    Conclusions: MACE should be expanded to include PAD event as major adverse vascular event in cardiovascular outcome studies since PAD is clinically relevant and objectively measurable in diabetes.

    Abstract Aims/objectives: Wound healing in people with diabetes is delayed secondary to impaired nitric oxide generation, advanced glycation end products (AGE), and poor migration of epithelial cells. We developed a novel topical esmolol hydrochloride (Galnobax) and assessed its efficacy for wound healing in streptozocin-induced diabetic hairless rat.
    Methods: All experiments were performed at an animal laboratory and tertiary-care research facility.
    Results: Esmolol inhibited the formation of sorbitol by 59% in erythrocytes in comparison to glucose-induced sorbitol levels. AGE generation in bovine serum albumin was reduced at 1 mM esmolol concentrations (2.6 ± 1.7) compared with control (
    Conclusions: Topical esmolol hydrochloride is a novel, safe, and effective treatment modality that acts through pleotropic mechanisms to hasten wound healing in diabetes.

    Abstract Heterogeneity in the Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD) diagnosis makes its rational therapeutics challenging. Although albuminuria characterizes DKD, reports also indicate its prevalence among non-proteinuric. Recent understanding of disease progression has thus inclined the focus on proximal tubular cell damage besides the glomeruli. A non-invasive approach exploiting exosomal miRNA derived from human kidney proximal tubular cell line was, hence, targeted. Upon miRNA profiling, three miRNAs, namely, hsa-miR-155-5p, hsa-miR-28-3p, and hsa-miR-425-5p were found to be significantly upregulated, while hsa-miR-663a was downregulated under diabetic conditions. Among these, hsa-miR-663a downregulation was more pronounced in non-proteinuric than proteinuric DKD subjects and was thus selected for the bioinformatics study. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) narrowed on to IL-8 signaling and inflammatory response as the most enriched 'canonical pathway' and 'disease pathway' respectively, during DKD. Further, the putative gene network generated from these enriched pathways revealed experimentally induced diabetes, renal tubular injury, and decreased levels of albumin as part of mapping under 'disease and function'. Genes target predictions and annotations by IPA reiterated miR-663a's role in the pathogenesis of DKD following tubular injury. Overall, the observations might offer an indirect reflection of the underlying mechanism between patients who develop proteinuria and non-proteinuria.

    Abstract Objectives: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) can be avoided if symptoms of diabetic foot complications are detected early and treated promptly. Early detection requires regular examination, which might be limited for many reasons. To identify affected or potentially affected regions in the diabetic plantar foot, the region-wise severity of the plantar foot must be known.
    Methods: A novel thermal diabetic foot dataset of 104 subjects was developed that is suitable for Indian healthcare conditions. The entire plantar foot thermogram is divided into three parts, i.e., forefoot, midfoot, and hindfoot. The division of plantar foot is based on the prevalence of foot ulcers and the load on the foot. To classify the severity levels, conventional machine learning (CML) techniques like logistic regression, decision tree, KNN, SVM, random forest, etc., and convolutional neural networks (CNN), such as EfficientNetB1, VGG-16, VGG-19, AlexNet, InceptionV3, etc., were applied and compared for robust outcomes.
    Results: The study successfully developed a thermal diabetic foot dataset, allowing for effective classification of diabetic foot ulcer severity using the CML and CNN techniques. The comparison of different methods revealed variations in performance, with certain approaches outperforming others.
    Conclusions: The region-based severity analysis offers valuable insights for targeted interventions and preventive measures, contributing to a comprehensive assessment of diabetic foot ulcer severity. Further research and development in these techniques can enhance the detection and management of diabetic foot complications, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
