Dr. Anmol N on Early paediatric surgery offers hope for birth defects with timely diagnosis and treatment
The focus on early detection in the treatment of brain tumours demonstrates the dedication to enhancing patient outcomes throughout India, where access to cutting-edge healthcare is becoming more and more common. Oncologists have said that early detection usually makes it simpler for neurosurgeons to remove a tumour entirely without causing harm to the surrounding brain tissue.
Dr Sachin Sekhar Biswal, Consultant - Medical Oncology, Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar, said that brain tumours, benign or malignant, can be silent but deadly. The doctor said that most patients in the early stages of illness dismiss signs and symptoms like recurring headaches, vision changes, memory lapses, or loss of balance, yet don’t go for a diagnosis, thinking of them as stress or normal.

Dr. Sathish N on Bengaluru man gains 24 kg in 2 years with 16-hour workday: How fast can you gain weight with a long desk job
A Bengaluru professional’s recent Reddit post on gaining 24 kg in two years since 2022 because of his “corporate slave” routine of 14-16 hour workdays has revived conversations of work culture affecting our health. Just like him, Dr Venugopal Pareek, bariatric surgeon and obesity specialist at Hyderabad’s CARE Hospitals, sees many young professionals who sleep by 2 am and report for work by 9 am, cramming the rest of their lives in between. “All of them complain of gaining weight uncontrollably because of their sedentary lifestyles, zero exercise and what I call a lift-to-lift routine (walk out of a lift and get into another),” he says.

Dr. Praveen Kumar B S on When “Too Clean” Gets Dirty: How Over-Sanitising May Be Harming Your Child’s Lungs
An anxious parent cleaned the doorknob for the fifth time that day, intent on having the house immaculate. The scent of lemon-scented disinfectant hung heavy in the air, and each surface sparkled. But shortly thereafter, their child started to wheeze—a worrisome indicator that all was not well.
These days, where hygiene is synonymous with safety, it's tempting to think that a germ-free, spotless environment is best for kids. But when it comes to asthma, might all this spraying and scrubbing actually be working against us?
Yes, it seems, at least according to mounting research and many health professionals. The idea that an ultra-clean environment may do more harm than good is rooted in what’s known as the Hygiene Hypothesis.

Dr. Praveen Kumar B.S on Smart Tips To Achieve Restful Sleep And Healthy Lungs During Pregnancy: Know From Doctor
Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it comes with its own set of physical and emotional challenges, especially when it comes to sleep and breathing. As the body undergoes significant transformations to support the growing baby, many expecting mothers find it increasingly difficult to get quality rest or breathe comfortably, particularly during the later stages of pregnancy. From hormonal shifts and physical discomfort to anxiety and frequent nighttime awakenings, sleep disturbances can start early and persist throughout the trimesters. Additionally, changes in lung function due to a growing uterus pressing against the diaphragm can make breathing feel laboured, especially when lying down.

Role Of Robotics In Renal Transplant Surgery: A New Era Of Precision
Renal or kidney transplantation is a life-saving surgery for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients, which has undergone a paradigm shift with the arrival of robotic technology. Robotic-assisted renal transplantation (RART) today revolutionises the field of kidney care with enhanced surgical precision, reduced risk of complications, and better patient outcomes.
The main benefit of robotics in healthcare is its unparalleled precision and dexterity. While traditional open kidney transplantation is effective, it requires a larger incision and needs a longer recovery period. Robotic systems, like the da Vinci Surgical System, allow surgeons to perform the procedure through smaller incisions, providing enhanced control and a 3-D view of the surgical field. This approach results in less blood loss, reduced postoperative pain, and quicker recovery for patients.

Manipal Hospital Yeshwanthpur: Dr. Shafalika S B on World Cancer Day: Role of vaccination and early detection in prevention of cervical cancer
Cervical cancer, prevalent among women in India, can be largely prevented with vaccination and early detection. Dr. Shafalika S. B. from Manipal Hospital Yeshwanthpur highlights that persistent infection with high-risk HPV types, especially HPV 16 and 18, causes most cases.

Manipal Hospital Yeshwanthpur: Dr. Shafalika S B on How to prevent cervical cancer, a common problem for women? Dr. Shafalika gave important information including vaccination.
Cervical cancer, one of the most common cancers among women, is largely preventable through the HPV vaccine. Dr. Shafalika S.B., a Minimally Invasive Gynecologist at Manipal Hospital Yeshwanthpur, Bengaluru, stresses the importance of vaccination for women aged 9 to 45. The two-dose vaccine (with the second dose after six months) protects against the HPV virus, the primary cause of cervical cancer. Early detection through annual gynaecological exams is crucial for identifying precancerous changes. Both Indian-made and foreign vaccines offer protection against various HPV types, making vaccination vital for prevention.
