The aim of our study was to establish the high prevalence of undetected, asymptomatic peripheral arterial disease in type2 diabetes in asymptomatic patients in the community. The study included 100 patients and equal number of controls, with 71% women in study group (78% in control).
Age of the control group was statistically significantly higher (51.7±6.3 vs 61.3±9.1 yrs p<0.001). Among the study patients 24% had ABI <0.9 compared to 4% in control group though age wise control group was older and had more chance of age related atherosclerosis, thereby proving the higher incidence of peripheral vascular disease in diabetic patients, even in the absence of symptoms.

Aim: To evaluate the relationship of plantar fasciitis with the type of flooring.
Setting: A rural tertiary care centre.
Materials and method: 100 patients with physician diagnosed plantar fasciitis formed the cases and an equal number of people who never had plantar pain syndrome formed the control. Both groups were given a questionnaire and they were grouped according to the type of flooring.
Results: Among the plantar fasciitis group maximum number of people lived in cement or mosaic floored houses followed by marble floored houses and vitrified tile or marbonite floored houses. However on analysis of both patients and controls maximum prevalence of plantar fasciitis was noted among people living in marble floor houses. Least incidence was seen with wooden floored houses and old fashioned cow-dung floored houses.
Conclusions: Type of flooring does influence development of plantar fasciitis. Maximum incidence of plantar fasciitis was noted with people living in marble floored houses.
