FOREWORD
Welcome Delegate to the Global
Cardio-Diabetes Conclave - 2017

I, Dr B R Bansode on behalf of Association of Physicians of
India would like to congratulate Prof. Sundaram Arul Rhaj
for organising the Global Cardio-Diabetes Conclave-2017
at the cultural and intellectual capital of India, Chennai
from September 29, 2017 to October 1, 2017.
We appreciate his efforts for providing a platform for luminaries from across the
world to exchange their ideas and experiences of managing cardio-diabetic chal-
lenges.
Endothelial dysfunction promotes vascular complication by secreting several medi-
ators and the interplay of other pathways at cellular levels in Cardio-Diabetes. This
results in the abnormal functioning of the heart, brain and kidneys. Intellectuals
and experts are trying to decipher the molecular / cellular mechanisms involved
in endothelial functions. There is an urgent need to protect the heart in diabetic
patients to reduce the cardio-vascular morbidity and mortality.
I feel great pride that Prof. Sundaram Arul Rhaj, a very active individual is part of
the Association of Physicians of India as an executive committee member.

I would like to urge you to contribute to the conclave by actively participating in
discussions and sharing your experience so as to better understand the challenges
of Cardiodiabetology.

Lastly, I would like to congratulate Prof. Sundaram Arul Rhaj and his active team
for organising the GCDC – 2017.
