Mashup Score: 30Barbados is in the grip of a diabetic foot amputation crisis - 13 day(s) ago
As Barbados faces rising numbers of diabetic foot amputations, the nation’s health experts are mobilising to uncover the root causes that can provide valuable lessons for others. Yemisi Bokinni reports For the past two decades Barbados has held the dubious nickname of “amputation capital of the world,” says Brian Payne, deputy nutrition officer at the Barbados Ministry of Health and Wellness. The reason? A tide of diabetes. A staggering 89% of diabetes related hospital admissions in Barbados involve foot complications.1 Amputations are largely attributed to poorly managed type 2 diabetes, with approximately 80% of cases stemming from diabetic foot ulcers.2 These often develop from diabetes related complications such as diabetic neuropathy and peripheral arterial disease, which contribute to the formation of leg ulcers and delayed wound healing.

Mashup Score: 2BLOG: My colleague experienced real-life consequence of daylight savings time change - 1 month(s) ago
This year is the first that I did not write a post on the weekend of the biannual daylight savings time change since the launch of this blog.
