School of Economics and Management, Yunnan Minzu University, Kunming, Yunnan, China.
Despite the increasing focus on intangible cultural heritage tourism, there is a lack of research on the ecological protection behaviors of tourists in these contexts.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of war on T2D patients' health to define key risk factors promoting disease progression.
Methods: A survey covering various aspects of T2D patients' experience and glycemic control data was conducted from June 2022 to February 2024.

Article Synopsis
- Health is a vital asset for individuals and communities, significantly harmed by recent wars, leading to malnutrition and increased epidemic vulnerability, especially among the poor.
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities are often targeted in conflicts, resulting in damaged infrastructure and limited access to clean water and medicines, which facilitates the return of previously eradicated diseases.
- The disruption of vaccination programs for children further raises the risk of disease spread to normally healthy areas, highlighting the connection between health and peace in war-affected regions.
