261 patients, including 59 diagnosed with diabetes mellitus type 3c (T3cDM), were studied in a retrospective clinical analysis. The cohort was 77.8% men and 22.2% women, with an average age of 56.8 and 53.4 years respectively, and 63% came from urban areas. This dataset, described by Lalitha Gudipaty and Michael R. Rickels, focuses on the relationship between chronic pancreatitis and secondary diabetes.
