Description

Simanta Roy led a team of eight authors who studied diabetes care in Bangladesh, published in PLOS ONE in 2026. Diabetes drugs work only when patients take them on schedule, and many adults struggle to do so. The team measured which factors track with good or poor adherence among adult patients.

Roy's group found patterns that point to where help can land: reminders, cost relief, and clearer teaching all match gaps the data reveal. Clinics can use such a map to target support rather than scold patients. In Bangladesh, where diabetes is rising fast, better adherence prevents costly complications. The study gives local health planners evidence drawn from their own patient population.
