Abstract
Diseases that are caused by a person's everyday habits are known as lifestyle diseases. Habits that devoid people of their daily activities and direct them towards a sedentary lifestyle cause numerous health problems that can lead to non-communicable diseases. Noncommunicable diseases, or NCDs, kill more than 41 million individuals per year, accounting for 74% of all deaths worldwide. In India, 63% of all fatalities were attributed to NCDs in 2016, with 23% of those deaths being early. Compared to the current state of various lifestyle diseases, the prevalence of adult obesity, hypertension, and other lifestyle disorders in Punjab was determined by the National Family Healthcare Surveys (NFHS-4 and NFHS-5). NFHS-5 survey conducted in Punjab was used to examine the general distribution of these disorders. The National Family Health Survey 2019–21 (NFHS-5), the fifth survey in the NFHS series, provides information on the population, health, and nutritional status of all states and union territories (UT) in India. NFHS-5 also gives district-level estimates for several crucial variables, similar to the NFHS-4 survey 2015–16.

Advancing Diabetic Wound Healing: Mechanisms and Interventions
In recent years, diabetic wounds have become a global health concern with an increase in the incidence of diabetes. Diabetic wounds are a kind of chronic and refractory ulcer. It is generally due to microcirculatory disturbances and reduced levels of endogenous growth factors. Delayed cutaneous wound healing is a chronic ...read more
Oxidative and Inflammatory Responses in the Development of Secondary Diabetic Complications
Diabetes, along with its associated secondary complications, represents a significant global health challenge, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality. Unhealthy lifestyle habits, reduced physical activity, environmental pollutants, and stress are pivotal factors in the onset of diabetes, particularly type-2 diabetes. Poorly managed hyperglycemia can lead to various complications, including neuropathy, ...read more
