Background: In India, Non-Degree Allopathic Providers (NDAPs), who do not have formal training in allopathic medicine, play a prominent role in basic healthcare delivery in both rural areas and urban informal settlements. Often recognized as providers of 'first contact' care for minor acute ailments, there is little information regarding the roles they play in providing services for non-communicable diseases (NCDs). In this study, we explore the roles played by NDAPs in diagnosing and managing two NCDs-diabetes and hypertension-in urban informal settlements of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

Very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), a triglyceride-rich lipoprotein secreted by hepatocytes, is pivotal for supplying peripheral tissues with fatty acids for energy production. As if walking on a tightrope, perturbations in the balance of VLDL metabolism contribute to cardiometabolic dysfunction, promoting pathologies such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Despite the advent of lipid-lowering therapies, including statins and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors, risks for cardiovascular events persist.

Muscle synergy analyses are used to enhance our understanding of motor control. Spatially fixed synergy weights coordinate multiple co-active muscles through activation commands, known as activation coefficients. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of motor learning, it is essential to understand how activation coefficients vary during a learning task and at different levels of movement proficiency.
