Diabetes mellitus is one of the metabolic syndromes that is associated with cognitive deficit, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease (AD) like pathology due to impaired insulin-signalling in the brain, oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Nanotechnology is one of the most promising techniques for targeting the brain. However, the toxicity of metal nanoparticles is one of the biggest challenges to be studied.

The upcoming era of flexible and wearable electronics necessitates the development of low-cost, flexible, biocompatible substrates amenable to the fabrication of active devices such as electronic devices, sensors and transducers. While natural biopolymers such as Silk are robust and biocompatible, long-term flexibility is a concern due to the inherent brittle nature of soft Silk thin films. This work elucidates the preparation and characterization of Silk-polyurethane (Silk-PU) composite film that provides long-duration flexibility.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers identified unique DNA sequences and protein diversity in samples with intact pfhrp2 genes, pointing to distinct amino acid repeat motifs compared to standard samples.
  • * The effectiveness of mass screening and treatment interventions, alongside additional measures like bed net distribution, was shown to significantly lower the risk of infection for both pfhrp2 deleted and intact P. falciparum parasites, emphasizing the need for new diagnostic methods for malaria elimination efforts by 2030.

Objective: This review aims to comprehensively analyse the fear of eating behaviour in individuals with diabetes, known as diabulimia or ED-DMT1. The emotional and psychological factors contributing to disordered eating behaviours, their impact on diabetes management, and potential consequences on physical health are explored. Various therapeutic interventions, including cognitive-behavioural therapy and psychological support, the role of nutrition education, individualized treatment plans support groups in managing fear of eating behaviour in diabetes are examined and discussed.
