Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The effect of diabetes mellitus in Melioidosis patients with respect to its immunometabolismTimepoint: Outcomes will be measured at 0, 3 and 6 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| As the aim of the study involves understanding the effect of DM on cellular immunometabolic response of the melioidosis, it will offer insights into immunopathogenesis that might aid in identifying potential candidates for development of a vaccine and adjuvant therapies for people with DM for the susceptible population in the endemic areas or in identifying drug targets that may provide protection under diabetic co-morbidities.Timepoint: 10 years | — |
