Article Synopsis
- Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a significant complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and this study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding DR among diabetic patients in Dongola, Sudan.
- Conducted from September 2022 to June 2023 with 241 participants at Al-Jemaih Diabetic Center, the study revealed that over half had good knowledge about DR, with urban residency linked to better understanding, while 79.3% had a favorable attitude.
- Despite positive knowledge and attitudes, only 27.8% had regular eye check-ups, mainly due to the misconception that these check-ups were unnecessary, highlighting a need for better education on DR's management.
The aim of this research work was to investigate the influence of parameters such as particle size, mass/solvent ratio, temperature and spray drying on the tannin extraction process in order to develop cost-effective methods with better environmental and structural performance. The pods of ssp. (ANT) were fractionated into three fractions, coarse fraction (C) (>2 mm), medium fraction (M) (1-2 mm), and fine fraction (F) < 1 mµ), and extracted with different water-to-pod ratios (2:1, 4:1 and 6:1) at different temperatures (30, 50 and 70 °C).
