Article Synopsis
  • - Pain is a major issue for about 70% of chronic pancreatitis patients, but the nature of this pain varies among individuals, complicating treatment approaches.
  • - The INPAIN study will analyze 400 chronic pancreatitis patients and include a control group, using a specialized testing panel over four years to identify pain profiles and predict treatment responses.

Background/objective: The complex interplay between adiposity, bone health and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) factors is unclear in Indian children. We aimed to investigate the mediating role of number of CMR factors on the relationship between fat % and bone mineral content (BMC) % in South Indian children aged 5-16 years.

Subjects And Methods: Healthy children (n = 317), from India, underwent anthropometric, blood biochemistry, blood pressure, along with body composition and BMC assessments using Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.

Unlabelled: Meningioma is a common brain tumour which has neither a specific detection nor treatment method. The Sonic hedgehog (Shh) cell signaling pathway is a crucial regulatory pathway of mammalian organogenesis and tumorigenesis including meningioma. Shh cell signalling pathway cascade function by main transcription factor Gli1 and which further regulates in its downstream to Pax6 and Nkx2.
