Design and implementation of intelligent patient in-house monitoring system based on efficient XGBoost-CNN approach.

Because of the scarcity of caregivers and the high cost of medical devices, it is difficult to keep track of the aging population and provide assistance. To avoid deterioration of health issues, continuous monitoring of personal health should be done prior to the intervention. If a problem is discovered, the IoT platform collects and presents the caretaker with graphical data.

Effective Evaluation of Medical Images Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques.

This work is implemented for the management of patients with epilepsy, and methods based on electroencephalography (EEG) analysis have been proposed for the timely prediction of its occurrence. The proposed system is used for crisis detection and prediction system; it is useful for both patients and medical staff to know their status easily and more accurately. In the treatment of Parkinson's disease, the affected patients with Parkinson's disease can assess the prognostic risk factors, and the symptoms are evaluated to predict rapid progression in the early stages after diagnosis.

Bacterial etiology of diabetic foot infections in South India.

Background: Foot infections are a frequent complication of patients with diabetes mellitus, accounting for up to 20% of diabetes-related hospital admissions. Infectious agents are associated with the worst outcomes, which may ultimately lead to amputation of the infected foot unless prompt treatment strategies are ensued. The present study sought to reveal the bacterial etiology of diabetic foot ulcers in South India, the diabetic capital of India.

Phenotypes of isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a diabetes care center.

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an invasive organism that frequently causes severe tissue damage in diabetic foot ulcers. A major problem in P. aeruginosa infection may be that this pathogen exhibits a high degree of resistance to a broad spectrum of antibiotics.

Association of C-reactive protein with body fat, diabetes and coronary artery disease in Asian Indians: the Chennai Urban Rural Epidemiology Study (CURES-6).

Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the association of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) with body fat, diabetes and coronary artery disease (CAD) in an urban south Indian population.

Design: The study was conducted on 150 subjects selected from the Chennai Urban Rural Epidemiology Study (CURES), an ongoing population-based study on a representative population of Chennai (formerly Madras). Group 1 comprised of non-diabetic subjects without CAD (n = 50).

The EIF2AK3 gene region and type I diabetes in subjects from South India.

Mutations in the EIF2AK3 gene underlie susceptibility to the Wolcott-Rallison syndrome, which is a monogenic disease associated with insulin-deficient neonatal diabetes. Furthermore, suggestive evidence of linkage between type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and the EIF2KA3 chromosomal region has been reported in Scandinavian families. We have investigated the hypothesis that polymorphic variants in and around the EIF2AK3 gene might partially account for susceptibility to T1DM in South Indian subjects.

Objective: To determine the prevalence of diabetes-related complications in subjects with fibrocalculous pancreatic diabetes (FCPD) and compare them with subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus matched for age, sex, and duration of diabetes.

Methods: The study group comprised of 277 FCPD patients and 277 age, sex, and duration of diabetes-matched type 2 diabetic patients. All the study subjects underwent a detailed clinical examination, and fasting blood samples were obtained for biochemical studies.

Tropical chronic pancreatitis.

Tropical chronic pancreatitis (TCP) is a juvenile form of chronic calcific non-alcoholic pancreatitis, seen almost exclusively in the developing countries of the tropical world. The classical triad of TCP consists of abdominal pain, steatorrhoea, and diabetes. When diabetes is present, the condition is called fibrocalculous pancreatic diabetes (FCPD) which is thus a later stage of TCP.

Socioeconomic status and dyslipidaemia in a South Indian population: the Chennai Urban Population Study (CUPS 11).

Background: Socioeconomic differences have been shown to be linked with the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and its risk factors such as dyslipidaemia based on urban-rural comparisons. However, very little data are available on the prevalence of dyslipidaemia within an urban environment. The aim of this study was to assess the pattern of dyslipidaemia in two different socioeconomic groups within an urban South Indian population.

Prevalence and risk factors of hypertension in a selected South Indian population--the Chennai Urban Population Study.

Objective: Hypertension is a major public health problem in developing countries. There is however very little population based data particularly in South India. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of hypertension and its associated risk factors in an urban South Indian population at Chennai.

Tropical chronic pancreatitis: an update.

Tropical chronic pancreatitis represents a juvenile nonalcoholic form of chronic pancreatitis prevalent in many tropical developing countries. Tropical chronic pancreatitis differs from temperate zone pancreatitis in its younger age of onset, more accelerated course, higher prevalence of pancreatic calculi and diabetes, and greater propensity to pancreatic malignancy. The diabetic stage of the disease is referred to as fibrocalculous pancreatic diabetes.

Comparison of colour duplex ultrasound and ankle-brachial pressure index measurements in peripheral vascular disease in type 2 diabetic patients with foot infections.

Background And Objectives: Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality and is reported to be more common among diabetic subjects compared to non-diabetic subjects. The aim of the study was to compare the specificity and sensitivity of ankle-brachial index (ABI) measured by peripheral doppler with the colour duplex ultrasound (CDU) for diagnosis of PVD.

Methods: One hundred type 2 diabetic patients admitted to our diabetic centre with foot lesions underwent both colour duplex ultrasound and ankle-brachial index measurements.

Objective: The Aim of Study is to determine the prevalence of non-diabetic renal disease among South Indian type 2 diabetic subjects based on renal biopsy.

Methods: Three thousand five hundred and ninety subjects with complete records were included for the study. One hundred and forty subjects who had proteinuria but no evidence of retinopathy undertook a 24 hour proteinuric estimation.

Work related upper limb disorders in telecommunication workers in Malaysia.

A total of 323 workers from 5 different occupational groups in the telecommunication industry were studied in this cross sectional study, which sought to determine the prevalence of Work Related Upper Limb Disorders (WRULD) in 5 occupational groups; operators using the Video Display Terminals, switchboard operators, clerks, data entry processors and the supervisors. WRULD was also studied with regard to factors such as sex, race, height, age, stress and the discomfort perceived due to the work station design. The possibility of WRULD was determined from a self-administered questionnaire and confirmed by history and physical examination.
