The management of diabetes is ever changing. India is now known
as the global capital of diabetes in the world. Diabetes is posing
a major threat to our economy and health scenario. The massive
increase in diabetes is not only because of life style changes
but also due to the massive increase in the aging population..
The countries with the largest number of people with diabetes
are projected to be in the year 2025 are India 57 million, China
38 million and the U.S.A. 22 million. The greatest increase between
1995 and 2025 is expected to occur in India (195%)
Over the years, it has been understood that, though there are
several medications to treat diabetes, majority of patients ultimately
develop serious complications. Probably, it is because of the
failure of the existing and established treatment regimens, newer
schemes are developed and recommended periodically. Dr. Jothydev
has delivered talks at various sessions on the updated management
of diabetes. Though, he is involved in almost all aspects in the
management of diabetes, his area of special interest is in ' diabetes
in the elderly'.
