Introduction: Energy metabolism in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is known to be different. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) accounts for the largest portion of total energy needs. The objective of our study was to assess resting metabolic rate and its determinants in adolescents and young adults with T1D in comparison with age- and gender-matched healthy controls.

- BoneXpert (BX) is useful for evaluating bone age (BA) and metacarpal index (MCI) in Indian children and youth with type-1 diabetes (T1D), but its application in this group had not been previously studied.
- A study of 1,272 T1D subjects revealed that BX can accurately assess BA, with minimal errors compared to established methods, and MCI showed a significant correlation with bone density measurements.
- Findings indicated that over 50% of subjects exhibited decreased MCI, highlighting the importance of monitoring factors like height and vitamin D levels, as well as the negative impact of HbA1c and T1D duration on bone health.
Introduction: Recent evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency and type-1 diabetes (T1D) have a bidirectional cause-effect relationship. The objective of this study is to estimate the prevalence and determinants of vitamin D deficiency in Indian children and young adults with T1D and assess the relationship between vitamin D status and their bone health.
Methods: It was a single-centre, cross-sectional study.
Aim: The study aimed to know the changes in spirometry parameters in chronic smokers and evaluate how the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) affects their lung function.
Materials And Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional, observational study was done for 12 months at a tertiary care hospital in the western region of Maharashtra State in India. Two groups of patients and one group of healthy volunteers aged 18 years or more were studied (with 50 in each group, = 150).
Background and aim Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with several infections due to hyperglycemia and impaired immunity. This study aims to analyze the clinical and microbiological profile of critically ill T2DM patients with sepsis due to gram-negative bacteria (GNB). Materials and methods A prospective cross-sectional observational study was conducted at Dr.
