Dr Shivakumar R on New study flips the script: Marriage may raise dementia risk
In a society where marriage is often seen as a pillar of stability, emotional fulfilment, and even physical health, a new study has cast doubt on whether that stability translates to better cognitive outcomes in old age. Conducted by Selin Karakose and colleagues at Florida State University, the research followed over 24,000 Americans, with an average age of 72, for up to 18 years. Surprisingly, it revealed that those who had never married had a 40% lower risk of developing dementia compared to their married counterparts. Widowed and divorced individuals also showed lower risks, 27% and 34%, respectively.

Dr. Suhas H S on Are you breathing correctly?
Optimal breathing is slow, deep, and diaphragmatic, meaning the diaphragm, rather than the chest, does most of the work. A healthy breathing pattern involves inhaling through the nose, allowing the belly to expand, and exhaling fully without strain.
Inhale… Exhale… Inhale… Exhale… Sounds simple, right? But breathing isn’t just an automatic reflex—it’s a complex process involving multiple muscles and organs working in perfect harmony to keep you alive

FW: Manipal Hospital Sarjapur: Dr. Deepa Krishnamurthy on Why azelaic acid should be in your skincare arsenal
Did you know that barley, wheat, and rye contain a naturally occurring acid that could do wonders for your skin? Azelaic acid, found in these grains and produced by Malassezia furfur (a yeast naturally present on healthy skin), can treat acne and fade dark spots — making it a potential skincare solution you have been looking for.
With its anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties, azelaic acid works in multiple ways. It prevents comedone formation or clogged hair follicles that mark acne's initial stage. “The advantage of azelaic acid over other acne treatments is that it has an additional depigmenting action,” says Dr Deepa Krishnamurthy, consultant – dermatologist, Manipal Hospital, Sarjapur Road, Bengaluru.
