Pediatric out of hospital cardiac arrest events are rare globally, with a low survival rate compared to adults. The study concluded that first aid training for both parents and caregivers in addition to the further linkage between pre-hospital and hospitals data all will reduce pediatric out of hospital cardiac arrest morbidity and mortality.

Hysterosalpingo-Foam Sonography (HyFoSy) is a quick, well-tolerated and less painful procedure than HSG for tubal patency testing. HyFoSy is an advanced technique that uses ultrasound to reveal abnormalities of Fallopian tubes or tubal blockage. It uses EXEM gel foam which is a safer alternative, in comparison to the laparoscopy dye test or the traditional hysterosalpingogram (HSG) when testing for tubal patency.

Prof. Sanford Markowitz used the discovery of a DNA change to develop a less-intrusive screening test for colon cancer. Prof. Markowitz found a specific DNA change that takes place in colon cancers. From that discovery, he developed a non-intrusive stool test, which even can be done at home, that can detect 80% of colon cancers as well as many pre-cancerous growths.

Dr. Alter co-discovered the Australian antigen a key to detecting the hepatitis B virus. He worked on researches that identified non-A, non-B hepatitis, now called hepatitis C. His work was instrumental in providing the scientific basis for instituting blood donor screening programs that have decreased the incidence of transfusion-transmitted hepatitis to near zero.

Cancer rehabilitation helps people with cancer maintain and restore their physical and emotional well-being. It is designed to help people return to activities of daily living. People who have survived cancer may have physical, emotional, and social issues that affect their quality of life, no matter what kind of cancer they have been treated for. Physical rehabilitation programs can often improve function, reduce pain, and improve the well-being of cancer survivors. The field of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) plays an important role in it.

Read more about the role of physical medicine and rehabilitation in the following review article.

World no to***co day is celebrated on 31st May worldwide, highlighting the health risks associated with the use of to***co and the implementation of policies to reduce its consumption.

To***co introduces ni****ne and more than 5,000 chemicals, including numerous carcinogens, into your lungs, blood, and organs. To***co use is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, over 20 different types or subtypes of cancer, and many other debilitating health conditions. Every year, more than 8 million people die from to***co use.

To***co can also be deadly for non-smokers. Passive smoke exposure causes 1.2 million deaths annually. Nearly half of all children breathe air polluted by to***co smoke and 65,000 children die each year due to illnesses related to passive smoking. Smoking while pregnant can lead to several life-long health conditions for babies.

Sleep apnea is a condition marked by abnormal breathing during sleep. People with sleep apnea have multiple extended pauses in a breath when they sleep. These temporary breathing lapses cause lower-quality sleep and affect the body’s supply of oxygen, leading to potentially serious health consequences.

Because of how it affects oxygen balance in the body, untreated sleep apnea raises dangers for various types of cardiovascular issues including high blood pressure, heart attack, heart disease, and stroke.

Loud snoring—especially when accompanied by daytime sleepiness or fatigue—may be a sign of sleep apnea, a common but serious disorder that impacts breathing.
