Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the potential of twisted nanographenes as sensors for detecting toxic chemical warfare agents (CWAs), which are harmful to human health and the environment.
- It evaluates their sensitivity and selectivity towards specific CWAs, including phosgene, thiophosgene, and formaldehyde, using various analytical methods to understand their interactions.
- Results show that twisted nanographenes have a strong sensing capability, particularly for thiophosgene, and could be developed into effective sensors for CWA detection in humid conditions.
Background: Numerous diabetes susceptibility loci, include a region consisting vitamin D receptor gene found in chromosome 12q, have been known using genome wide screens.
Aim: The aim of present study is to probe the relationship between polymorphism of vitamin D receptor gene (single nucleotide polymorphisms) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Five hundred T2DM patients and 200 healthy subjects with normal HbA1c (≤ 5.
Present research was undertaken with the aim to assess the association of VDR gene FokI polymorphism with T2DM in local population. The study comprised of 100 T2DM patients (DG) and 50 normal individuals (CG) groups. Demographic parameters; age, gender, BMI and blood pressure were recorded.

Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is an advanced and chronic endocrine disorder characterized by an insufficiency of insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and liver, adipose tissues, and skeletal muscles.
Objective: The main objective of this study is to understand the mechanism and genes which are responsible for the prevalence of diabetes. The study also covers various types of diabetic complications with special reference to insulin role and defects.
