Track 1: Chronic Diseases
Chronic Diseases are usually the long-term medical conditions and are progressive. Chronic diseases include Heart Disease, Diabetes, Stroke, Asthma, Cancer, Chronic Respiratory Diseases, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, Lipid Disorders. At present, these are about enormous causes of disability and death, representing 60% of all deaths. The fact is that chronic diseases generally cannot be prevented by vaccines or cured by medication, nor do they just go off. Health damaging behaviours - such as tobacco use, lack of physical activity, and poor eating habits - are major reasons to the emerging chronic diseases. Chronic diseases usually become prevalent with ages. Adopting higher lifestyle practices such as a healthy and nutritious diet, regular exercise, and avoiding tobacco will stop the onset of extensive complications of chronic diseases.

Track 2: Chronic Respiratory Diseases
Endless respiratory diseases refer to infections of the aviation routes and different parts of the lung. Probably the most generally recognized are asthma, chronic obstructive pneumonic illness (COPD), lung malignancy, cystic fibrosis, sleep apnea and word related lung infections. Respiratory diseases attacks everyone including all ages-kids, high schoolers, grown-ups and seniors. The greater part of these respiratory ailments is perpetual in nature and all have a commendable effect on the person with the sickness. CRDs are not repairable, however, treatment may reduce shortness of breath and control side effects and increase the personal satisfaction for individuals with this ailments.

Track 3: Chronic Osteoarticular Diseases
Osteoarticular disorder or rheumatic disease is a cluster of conditions like arthrosis, joint inflammation, and related musculoskeletal issue. The most well-known of its rheumatic illnesses Arthrosis is a perpetual joint issue. It promotes degeneration of the ligament encompassing. As it extends, the sickness tends to include the adjoining bone tissue, the articular container, the muscles, the ligaments and the tendons, considering the further degeneration of the joint ligament because of rehashed aggravation. The beginning of most osteoarticular issue is challenging in nature. Treatment of dynamic irritations depends on the usage of medicines that contradict this procedure while controlling the manifestations.

Track 4: Neurodegenerative Diseases
Neurodegenerative disease is a term that primarily focuses on the neurons in the human brain. Neurons are the primary source of the nervous system which includes the brain and spinal cord. Neurons normally don’t regenerate themselves, so when they become damaged, they cannot be replaced by the body. Neurodegenerative diseases are incurable and attenuate conditions that result in stepwise degeneration and / or death of nerve cells. This causes problems with movement or mental functioning.

Track 7: Diabetology & Metabolic Diseases
Diabetes is a condition that occurs when your blood glucose is too high. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, helps glucose from food get into your cells to be used for energy. Sometimes your body doesn’t make enough usage of insulin. Glucose then stays in your blood and does not find the way to reach our cells. In such a cases having too much glucose in your blood can cause health problems. Though there is no cure one can take effective steps to maintain the glucose level and stay healthy. Type 1-your body does not make insulin. Your immune system attacks and destroys the cells in your pancreas that make insulin. Type 2- your body does not use insulin well. It is the most common type of diabetes. Gestational diabetes is common in pregnant women. It is usually temporary and goes-off after pregnancy.

Track 8: Cancer
Cancer also called as malignancy is the abnormal growth of the cell in the body spread to the all over body parts. Main signs for the cancer include unexplained weight loss, abnormal bleeding, lump, and change in bowel movements. There are more than 100 cancers that causes damages to the human health. Many cancers can be prevented by avoiding alcohol, consumption of tobacco. Cancer can be treated by using chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy and targeted therapy.

Track 9: Hypertension
Hypertension in other words can be explained as high blood pressure. Scientifically blood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. Hypertension are the main causes of abnormal blood pressure. High blood pressure usually does not have any symptoms. Hypertension may lead to the risk such as heart failure, chronic kidney disease, stroke, and coronary artery disease and vision loss. Lifestyle factors that cause the hypertension includes excess body weight, excess salt and alcohol.

Track 10: Kidney Diseases
Nephropathy means kidney disease or damage. Kidneys important function is to filter waste products from the blood. They are primarily involved in regulating high blood pressure, electrolyte balance, and red blood cell production in the body. Symptoms of kidney failure includes irregular heartbeat, seizure or comma, fluid retention and fatigue . Inability to remove potassium from the bloodstream may lead to abnormal heart rhythms and sudden death. Initially kidney failure may cause no symptoms. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetic nephropathy, IgA nephropathy are the complications of kidney.

Track 11: Thyroid Diseases
Thyroid disease is referred to be the condition that affects the thyroid gland. Thyroid diseases are four types, hypothyroidism; hyperthyroidism; structural abnormalities, most commonly an enlargement of the thyroid gland; and tumours which can be benign or malignant cancer. Main symptoms of thyroid disease include muscle cramps, weight gain, slow movement and tiredness. Thyroid diseases can be diagnosed by using the methods such as biopsy, ultrasound and radioiodine scanning.

Track 12: Liver Diseases
As most of us know cirrhosis is one of the most common liver condition in this type of diseases the healthy liver tissue is replaced by the body tissue leading to improper function of the liver. The liver has many important functions like removal of waste, production of bile to digest the food, and making many new proteins. Autoimmune disorders, parasitic infections and use of certain medicines may also be the reason for certain types of chronic liver diseases.

Track 13: Autoimmune Diseases
Autoimmune disorder arises when the body acts against its own antibodies. There are upwards of 80 types of immune system infections. A heavy portion of them has comparable manifestations, which makes them extremely difficult to analyse. Immune system illnesses typically vary between times of reduction and flare-ups. Currently, treatment for immune system diseases focuses on reducing the effects of reducing the effects of the diseases as there is no potential cure for it currently.

Track 14: HIV/AIDS
HIV is a virus that attacks immune cells called CD-4 T cells. AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is caused by a virus called HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). This diseases are estimated to weaken the human immune system and makes the body prone to many types of viral diseases. This susceptibility worsens if the syndrome progresses. HIV can spread to all the tissues of the body but is transmitted through the body fluids of an infected person (semen, vaginal fluids, blood, and breast milk).

Track 15: Depression & Mental Illness
Depression is a common mental disorder that causes people to experience the symptoms such as depressed mood, either weight gain or loss, low concentration, Apathy and sleeping problems. In some cases, depression increases the burden of diseases in patients suffering from chronic medical conditions. Mental health is important at every stage of life. For huge number of people chronic illness and depression has become the one among the important Factors in life.

Track 16: Stroke
A stroke occurs when the blood supply to the part of the brain is generally cut-off, make the brain tissue to strive for nutrients and oxygen, so soon after that the brain cells begin to die. A stroke can be generally caused due to three main factors blocking of the artery, leakage or bursting of the artery and many other cases. For some people the problem is only temporary and can be rectified they do not cause any permanent damage. One interesting fact to hear is that stroke is only the medical emergency and can be treated and prevented.

Track 17: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome as per the name it is one of the most complex diseases and it is difficult to explain by means of any complex medical condition. On continues physical or mental activity the diseases may get worsen but it does not improve on rest. It can also be referred as systemic exertion intolerance disease (SEID) or myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). The major responsible causes for the chronic diseases are unknown but there are many proposals ranging from infection to psychological stress. There is no potential cure for the chronic fatigue syndrome. Treatment of chronic diseases focuses on lowering its symptoms.

Track 18: Diagnosis and Therapies
Usually medical diagnosis or therapies will help us in the process of detecting the diseases or conditions by explaining the victim’s symptoms and signs. The way we diagnose the diseases with symptoms and signs are highly non-specific. Usually the diagnosis and therapies provide the better way for patient care, contribute to consumer health and reduces the healthcare spending at the final stages.

Track 19: Risk Factors
Chronic Diseases are responsible for the large portion of burden of diseases in many of the countries across the globe. The major causes of chronic diseases or the important features of chronic diseases includes physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, tobacco use, and in rare cases heredity and mutation. Chronic diseases are the life lasting problem both the emotional and medical support are essential to overcome the diseases.

Track 20: Epidemiology
Epidemiology is the study of disease transmission by analysing the causes, effects and symptoms in the specific population. At the later stages it acts as the guide in the management of the population in which the diseases had already developed. Generally, the epidemiological information is used to pre-design and evaluate the strategies to prevent illness and to control health problems.
