Background: Tobacco use represents a significant public health burden, being especially harmful for smokers with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Effective smoking cessation interventions are required for this vulnerable population. The goal is to describe a study protocol of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed at analyzing the effectiveness and efficiency of a multicomponent smoking cessation intervention for T2DM smokers, including a training protocol on healthy lifestyle habits and self-management of T2DM ( project).
Methods: This RCT will assign participants to: (1) Control Group (n = 30), including a brief psychoeducation advice about smoking cessation; (2) Cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for smoking cessation (n = 30), based on a multicomponent program implemented in group-based sessions over an eight-week period; and (3) CBT plus protocol (n = 30), which will develop an additional psychoeducational protocol specifically designed to improve healthy lifestyle habits. Participants will be assessed at baseline, post-treatment and several follow-ups (1-, 6- and 12-months). Primary outcomes will include smoking abstinence (24-h point prevalence abstinence at post-treatment and 7-day point prevalence at follow-ups) and smoking continuous abstinence. Secondary outcomes will include treatment retention, changes in smoking patterns and nicotine dependence, as well as the impact on T2DM clinical variables, mental health, and quality of life.
Discussion: The program could assist T2DM smokers in quitting tobacco use and improving their overall quality of life. This project will help incorporating improvements in routine clinical practice with T2DM patients, offering a smoking cessation program adapted to their specific needs.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents a major cause of premature mortality in people living with HIV (PLWH). There is a need to characterize the cardiovascular health profiles of PLWH to appropriately guide primary prevention efforts, particularly in settings like Sub-Saharan Africa, where there is a high burden of HIV and limited resources. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on a cohort of newly diagnosed PLWH and HIV-uninfected adults recruited from three HIV clinics in Mwanza, Tanzania.

Pancreatogenic diabetes also known as type 3c diabetes mellitus (DM) is a distinct entity often overlooked and misdiagnosed as type 2 diabetes. It results from exocrine pancreatic dysfunction involving both insulin and glucagon deficiencies due to damage to pancreatic beta and alpha cells. This case highlights a 46-year-old male presenting with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a rare but severe complication of type 3c DM.

Purpose: Smoking may have a protective role in developing ulcerative colitis (UC) but have the opposite effect on Crohn's disease (CD). This study aimed to determine the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) according to smoking status and onset age of smoking.
Materials And Methods: We collected data on the smoking experiences of participants aged 20-39 years who underwent biannual examinations provided by the Korean National Health Screening Program from 2009 to 2012.

Introduction: The use of video calls to provide health-related interventions has grown significantly, showing positive results in a broad range of psychological interventions. Scarce research has examined video-call use in smoking cessation treatments. The purpose of this study was to compare two randomised controlled trials conducting a cognitive-behavioral intervention to quit smoking in-person versus using video calls.

Spine-related health issues are a growing concern globally, driven by aging populations, sedentary lifestyles, and obesity rates, particularly in Western industrialized nations. While spine surgery remains a crucial intervention for severe cases, lifestyle modifications-including anti-inflammatory diets, smoking cessation, and physical activity-offer significant potential to prevent spinal conditions and improve surgical outcomes. Inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines are implicated in degenerative spinal diseases, and addressing these through diet and exercise could reduce the need for surgical intervention.
