HCG Manavata and SunAct Launch Advanced Centre for Cell and Gene Therapy in Nashik, Ushering a New Era in Cancer Care

In a transformative stride towards equitable cancer care, HCG Manavata Cancer Centre (HCGMCC), in collaboration with SunAct – Advanced Cancer Therapies, has unveiled its fourth national Centre of Excellence in Cell and Gene Therapy at Nashik.

Migraine Medications During Pregnancy Not Linked to Neurodevelopmental Issues in Children, Study Finds

Expectant mothers who take triptans—commonly prescribed medications for migraines—during pregnancy can breathe a sigh of relief. A new study published on May 21 in the journal Neurology finds no increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in children exposed to triptans in the womb, even when taken in combination with other preventive migraine medications.

Seizures Not a Key Predictor of Outcomes in Glioma Patients, Study Finds

For patients diagnosed with diffuse gliomas, experiencing seizures caused by the tumor—known as tumor-related epilepsy (TRE)—may not significantly affect long-term prognosis, according to a new study published in the May issue of Brain and Behavior.

FDA Approves First-Line Treatment Zynyz for Advanced Anal Cancer

In a significant milestone for the treatment of anal cancer, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Zynyz (retifanlimab-dlwr)—a humanized monoclonal antibody—as the first first-line immunotherapy option for adults with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCAC).

Social Media Use Tied to Rising Depression in Preteens, Study Warns

A new study by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, showed strong evidence that increasing time spent on social media may contribute to an increase in depression symptoms among preteens. The three-year study, which included extensive health data from over 12,000 youngsters, provides some of the clearest insights yet into how digital habits influence mental health during early adolescence.

MRI Breakthrough Makes Painful Test for Multiple Sclerosis Obsolete

A new scientific discovery could transform the way multiple sclerosis (MS) is diagnosed, bringing respite to people who are now subjected to a painful and outmoded test. For decades, anyone suspected of having MS—a chronic condition affecting the brain and spinal cord—had to undergo a treatment known as a lumbar puncture. However, a new type of MRI scan promises to replace it, making diagnosis faster, cheaper, and far more comfortable.

Long COVID Fuelling Mental Health Crisis in Children: Study

As COVID-19 cases resurface in several Asian nations, doctors are concerned about more subtle, long-term harm to children's mental health. A new study reveals that children with long-term COVID often face overlooked emotional and psychological difficulties. Many Asian countries, including India, Japan, and South Korea, have demonstrated a continuous increase in paediatric COVID cases.

India’s Health Vision at Global Stage: Seniors Covered, Diseases Targeted, and A Fairer World in Focus

India delivered a powerful statement at the 78th World Health Assembly, asking for a global approach to health and highlighting its recent efforts to make healthcare more equitable and accessible. Punya Salila Srivastava, Union Health Secretary, headed the Indian delegation and used the worldwide platform to advocate for greater international cooperation, particularly for people in low- and middle-income countries.

Laughing Gas Eases Dental Fear in Children, Boosts Safer Care at Manav Rachna

Children who used to fear going to the dentist are now leaving with grins, thanks to a safer and gentler method utilised at Manav Rachna Dentistry College's paediatric dentistry department. The college employs conscious sedation, a technique that allows youngsters to remain comfortable but alert during dental procedures. This modest but significant modification is making a major difference in lowering pain and fear, particularly among young children and those with special needs.

Indo-German Research May Break Global Barrier in Cataract Surgery

In many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries such as India, cataracts are still the major cause of blindness. A cataract occurs when the natural lens of the eye gets clouded, making it harder to see. A simple procedure can restore vision; however, the quality of the surgery varies greatly by region. Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery (SICS), a popular approach in such nations, is inexpensive but has been criticised for producing inconsistent results due to uneven training and a lack of advanced monitoring instruments.

60 Minutes in the OT, 6 Hours to Count: Doctors Remove 8,125 Gallstones from 70-Year-Old Man at Fortis Gurugram

In an unbelievable medical case, doctors at Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram, removed 8,125 gallstones from a 70-year-old man’s gallbladder. Yes, you read that right—over eight thousand stones!

Nebraska Becomes First State to Ban Soda, Energy Drinks from SNAP Purchases

In a landmark policy shift, Nebraska has become the first U.S. state to receive federal approval to ban the purchase of soda and energy drinks under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), commonly known as food stamps.

Salmonella Outbreak Linked to Florida-Grown Cucumbers Under Investigation

U.S. health officials are investigating a new salmonella outbreak linked to cucumbers grown in Florida, which has sickened at least 26 people across 15 states, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

High Lipoprotein(a) Levels Linked to Greater Risk of Recurrent Heart Disease, Study Finds

Higher levels of lipoprotein(a)—a genetic variant of cholesterol—are tied to an increased risk of recurrent atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), regardless of sex, race, or ethnicity, according to a large U.S.-based study published online May 7 in the European Heart Journal.

5-Year Study Shows 30% Drop in Death Risk with enzalutamide in Advanced Prostate Cancer

For decades, the prognosis for men diagnosed with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC)—a stage in which prostate cancer has gone beyond the prostate but still responds to hormone therapy—has been grim. Survival rates rarely exceeded a few years, particularly for individuals with severe illness. However, findings from a major international study are changing expectations.

A Faridabad Hospital Using Automation to Transform Healthcare

Asian Hospital in Faridabad has deployed Total Lab Automation (TLA), a system that automates the entire laboratory testing procedure. This move has the potential to revolutionise diagnostic treatments in Indian hospitals. This transformation is about more than just speed or efficiency; it's about reimagining how hospitals manage time, resources, and, most crucially, patient care.

New Scans Reveal Missed Cancers in Women with Dense Breasts

A huge UK trial published in The Lancet finds that routine mammography frequently fails to detect early-stage malignancies in women with dense breast tissue, which is an important advance for breast cancer screening. However, the study provides hope—advanced imaging techniques such as contrast-enhanced mammography and rapid MRI were discovered to be considerably more successful at detecting cancers that standard scans missed.

Long-Term Antidepressant Use Linked to Tougher Withdrawal, Warn Experts

A recent study by experts in England found a concerning pattern among individuals who discontinue antidepressants after long-term use. According to the findings, individuals who have been on these medications for more than two years are at a significantly higher risk of experiencing severe and extended withdrawal symptoms than those who have taken them for a shorter amount of time.

India Steps Up Disaster Preparedness with CBDM India 2025: Local Heroes to Lead the Way

India is getting ready to tackle disasters in a new and powerful way—by putting communities at the heart of the response. From deadly floods and heatwaves to unexpected conflicts along the borders, emergencies are on the rise. But now, under a national effort called CBDM India 2025, everyday people—teachers, health workers, volunteers—are being trained to respond quickly and save lives.

Study Finds Male Bodybuilders Face Higher Risk of Sudden Cardiac Death Than Amateurs

Male professional bodybuilders are at significantly higher risk of death and sudden cardiac death (SCD) compared to amateur athletes, according to a new international study published in the European Heart Journal on May 20.

Staying Healthy in Humid Conditions: Expert Tips to Beat the Heat and Humidity

As temperatures rise and humidity levels soar across many regions in India, staying healthy becomes increasingly challenging. High humidity not only makes the environment uncomfortable but also affects the body’s ability to regulate temperature, potentially leading to heat-related illnesses. Experts emphasize the need for heightened awareness and precautionary measures to protect one's health during this season.

World Health Assembly Secures $170 Million Boost for WHO, Signaling Renewed Global Commitment to Health Security

World leaders and philanthropic partners pledged over US$ 170 million to the World Health Organization (WHO) on Tuesday, during a high-level pledging event at the 78th World Health Assembly in Geneva.
