Diabetes Mellitus The Clinical Investigation is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal that provides worldwide distribution of original, distinctive scientific publications based on the many fields of clinical and clinical medicine to discuss a variety of brand-new challenges in Clinical investigation. The Clinical Investigation is dedicated to the prompt publication of significant original research in cell biology, case studies, and application of gastroenterology, including clinical trials data management & software, oral investigations, forensic medicine, bioequivalence, electrophoresis, electrochemistry, clinical sleep medicine, and biomedical research. All submissions will go through a thorough peer review process, with the calibre of creativity, and range of reader interest being taken into account. The publication upholds its scientific value by disseminating the most significant recent findings in all fields of clinical investigation. Recently In our upcoming issue we have published article entitled “Awareness About Routine Laboratory Investigations Amongst Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients and its Impact on Their Disease Status’’ by one of the eminent author “Dr. Saurav Nayak” Senior Resident, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. This article is about “Diabetes Mellitus Patients and Impact on their Disease Status” utilising a standardised questionnaire form, determine the degree of knowledge among patients with diabetes mellitus who have previously received a diagnosis on the significance, timing, and relevance of laboratory investigations to the illness process. Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the age range of 30-80 years, of both sexes, were given a validated self-administered study questionnaire that included 10 questions about various routine laboratory tests that must be performed at specific intervals for better management and the prevention of complications. The scores given to each response as correct, incorrect, or don't know as 2, 1, and 0 were used to analyse the awareness level. The management of diabetes involves several different aspects. The majority of patients struggle and lack the skills and knowledge necessary to manage the level of self-care necessary to achieve the endorsed goals for appropriate illness control. Poor glycemic control and greater incidence of microvascular and macrovascular consequences of diabetes mellitus, such as cardiovascular illnesses, neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy, have been linked independently to inadequate diabetes health literacy. Through the use of a standardised questionnaire form, this study sought to determine how well-informed patients with diabetes mellitus were about laboratory tests, their significance, timing, and relevance to the illness process. The demographics and length of the sickness were taken into consideration while determining the awareness level. Biochemical factors such FBS, Lipid profile, HbA1c, Urea, Creatinine, Total protein, and Albumin were used to investigate the connection. A cross-sectional study was carried out between November 2018 and June 2019. After obtaining informed written agreement, 300 Type 2 Diabetes mellitus patients in the age range of 30 to 80 years of both sexes with a disease duration of more than 5 years were enrolled in the study. The Institute Ethics Committee gave its ethical. The survey was written in both English and the state's regional tongue. The scores given to each response as correct, incorrect, or don't know as 2, 1, and 0 were used to examine the awareness level. For analysis, the scores were split into two groups: The morbidity score included scores for micro and macrovascular complications related to the disease process, and the monitoring score included scores obtained about laboratory investigations. According to the calculated scores, it was found that male participants had higher overall scores than female participants did, as well as higher Monitoring and Morbidity scores. This difference was statistically significant with a p-value of 0.05. Age and any of the awareness ratings as determined by linear regression or Pearson's correlation did not significantly correlate with one another. Numerous studies have shown that patients with good diabetic health literacy adhered to self-care routines, underwent routine checkups, maintained better glucose control, and experienced fewer problems. In contrast to patients with lower scores, those in our study who had higher overall, morbidity, and mortality scores had blood sugar levels that were within the normal range, which was statistically significant. Our findings are consistent with those of a few other research. Our study found a discrepancy in knowledge and adherence about routine laboratory tests related to diabetes mellitus. Although they were less aware of routine relevant laboratory investigations as part of self-management regimens, patients were more aware of problems. Patients with higher awareness scores had blood sugar levels that were within a normal range. Therefore, as recommended by numerous associations, diabetes health literacy is crucial for self-care activities, but proper compliance with the self-care activities must also be checked and strictly adhered to. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process Clinical Investigation has prepaid an extra $99 on top of the standard article processing charge to participate in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process). The handling editor can respond to the article during the pre-review phase and deliver a review more rapidly thanks to a specific service called Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process. Pre-reviews can be completed as soon as three days after submission, whereas reviewer reviews can take up to five days. After then, it may just take two days to complete publication and changes. It will take an additional five days for the handling editor or the previous reviewer to evaluate the article once they are alerted that it needs to be amended. We also providing the membership plan, if you have more than 2-3 articles.
