AI-Driven Therapeutics for DIABETES
Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic non-communicable disease (NCD), has attained epidemic proportions worldwide. Several studies conducted over the last two decades have revealed a huge burden of diabetes in India, which translates to a large population of individuals at risk of not only cardiovascular disease but also chronic complications of diabetes such as kidney, foot, and eye disease. The cost of
treating them is crippling not just individuals, but also the society and the country as a whole. For instance, diabetic foot ulcers and infections are responsible for more than 30 per cent of hospitalisations related to diabetes mellitus. On the other hand, there is a higher prevalence of diabetic retinopathy among the urban population than in the rural population. India must step up state-specific policies and technological interventions on a war footing to arrest the rapidly rising epidemic of diabetes.
