    The effects of four marination methods (water, papaya leaves juice, papaya leaves powder, and commercial meat tenderizer) on the meat quality and sensory attributes of cooked (moist and/or grill) Pectoralis major muscle of spent chicken were examined. Pectoralis major muscles from 40 spent chickens were assigned to four marination methods: marinating with 100 mL distilled water, Control (T1) (n = 10); marinating with papaya leaves juice (50 g PLP + 100 mL distilled water), T2 (n = 10); marinating with 50 g papaya leaves powder, T3 (n = 10); and marinating with 50 g commercial meat tenderizer, T4 (n = 10). Results of meat quality revealed the lowest drip loss, cooking loss, and shear force values of samples from T3 as compared to the other treatments. Additionally, myofibril fragmentation index of marinated Pectoralis major muscle from T3 was significantly higher than the other treatments. Among the treatments within the moist cooking method, T3 presented significantly higher scores for tenderness and juiciness and significantly lower score for flavour as compared to T1 and T2. In the grill cooking method, the highest scores for tenderness and juiciness were significantly demonstrated by samples of T2 and T3. Furthermore, samples from T2 had significantly higher score for flavour. Results of the present work demonstrated that marinating spent chicken meat with 50 g papaya leaves powder improved its tenderness and water holding capacity. Furthermore, greater improvement in tenderness and juiciness were observed when meat samples marinated with papaya leaves powder (T3) were further subjected to moist cooking method.

    INTRODUCTION: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most prevalent chronic complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) that can significantly result in disability and impaired quality of life. The DPN of the foot has been extensively studied in diabetes care. Nevertheless, the DPN of hand has been the road less taken in research and clinical practice. Thus, a scoping review was conducted to identify all available standardized hand assessments which have been used, developed, or tested in individuals with DM.

    MATERIALS AND METHODS: This scoping review was reported in alignment with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Studies were identified through searches of five databases: Cochrane, Scopus, ProQuest, MEDLINE, and Web of Science (WoS).

    RESULTS: Of the 294 articles initially identified, 20 studies were included and analysed thematically after removing duplicates. The majority of these assessments measure body function and structure such as grip and pinch strength while the rest are measuring the activity and participation domain. Most of the hand assessments were performancebased measurements. It is suggestible to employ both types of assessments to obtain a comprehensive understanding of hand conditions in individuals with DM. While some validated hand assessments were identified, only the Duruöz Hand Index (DHI) has been validated as a reliable tool specifically for evaluating hand function in individuals with DM.

    CONCLUSION: There is a need to evaluate the measurement properties of existing instruments for assessing the hand function in individuals with DM, or to develop hand assessments specifically for the DM population. This scoping review was forging a new path, by discovering diabetes care through the utilisation of hand assessments.
