Execution of Project

BriefingIn the early part of 20th century, nutritional deficiencies and infectious disorders were the most prevalent health problems of the economically underprivileged an developing countries. It was generally believed that chronic degenerative disorders were virtually nonexistent.

Observation by astute clinicians in the earlier years followed by school surveys by research teams proved that rheumatic diseases are one of the most common chronic disorders of childhood in India. The story of Childhood diabetes is not different either. Many physicians and pediatricians still believe and teach that childhood diabetes is rare.

Determinants and clinical profile of childhood diseases Mellitus in India and a lot more work is still needed today to improve the health care of these children in our country.
