Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) has emerged as a rapidly growing non-communicable disease (NCD) across developed & developing countries. People with diabetes mellitus experience health implications. They develop associated microvascular complications such as neuropathy, nephropathy & retinopathy and macro-vascular complications like coronary artery disease, stroke, amputations etc. These complications increase the socio-economic burden of people living with diabetes. Self-management of diabetes through education is a strong tool that remains under-utilized in clinical settings. The objective of the present study was to explore the role of extended reality for diabetes education & self-management.
Methodology: The present study is a bibliometric analysis performed on the Scopus database with keywords: diabetes education, self-management, extended reality, virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, and Boolean operators AND, OR. The search period ranged from inception till 4 July 2023 with restriction to English language articles. A total of 89 documents were identified in Scopus under multiple domains such as Engineering, Medicine, Health Professions, Nursing among others. The data was exported to the VOS Viewer software for network analysis.
Results: Out of the total 89 documents, 45-original research, 26-review, 12-conference paper, 3-book, 2-book chapters & 1-note. The highest publications were from the Medicine category. The year of publication of the included documents ranged from 1999 till 2022. The network analysis was performed to explore the association between the included studies (co-authorship, co-occurrence, citation analysis, bibliographic coupling).
Conclusion: The network analysis found the USA to be the leading publisher and the National Institute of Health (NIH) to be the leading funding source. There is limited evidence and a strong future scope to strengthen research productivity on extended reality for diabetes education & self-management.

Background: Fatty Liver Disease (FLD) progresses from steatosis to steatohepatitis and, if left untreated, can lead to irreversible conditions such as cirrhosis and hepatocarcinoma. The etiology of FLD remains unclear, but factors such as overconsumption, poor diet, obesity, and diabetes contribute to its development. Palmitic acid (PA) plays a significant role in FLD progression by inducing apoptosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in hepatocytes.

Carbohydrates, lipids, bile acids, various inorganic salt ions and organic acids are the main nutrients or indispensable components of the human body. Dysregulation in the processes of absorption, transport, metabolism, and excretion of these metabolites can lead to the onset of severe metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, gout and hyperbilirubinemia. As the second largest membrane receptor supergroup, several major families in the solute carrier (SLC) supergroup have been found to play key roles in the transport of substances such as carbohydrates, lipids, urate, bile acids, monocarboxylates and zinc ions.

Introduction: Studies have shown a strong correlation between the cardiometabolic index (CMI) and health issues such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, and decreased renal function. Nevertheless, the correlation between CMI and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) remains ambiguous. The objective of this study is to evaluate the correlation between CMI and DKD in patients with diabetes in the United States.

The cancers of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract have become a common diagnosis worldwide contributing to a large number of mortalities. Though potentially curable they are mostly fatal due to late diagnosis and lack of accurate diagnostic markers. microRNA, micromanagers of gene expression have been associated to have distinct roles as oncogenes or tumour suppressors in several cancers including GI cancers.
