Yesterday, October 5th, marked World Meningitis Day 🧠🧡
A global reminder that awareness can truly save lives — because meningitis can change everything in just a few hours.

Meningitis is an inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
The bacterial type is the most dangerous, as it can lead to death or lifelong complications if not treated quickly.
It’s more common than most people think — every year, around 2.5 million people worldwide are affected,
and a large portion of them are children and young adults.

World Meningitis Day exists to make us pause and remember that prevention is power.
That’s why the World Health Organization (WHO) launched the global roadmap
“Defeating Meningitis by 2030”, aiming to eliminate the disease through vaccination, early detection, and rapid treatment.

Quick Prevention Tips:

🔸Get vaccinated — it’s your first line of defense 💉
🔸Wash your hands regularly
🔸Avoid sharing personal items, food, or drinks

If you experience symptoms like severe headache, fever, stiff neck, or rash — seek medical help immediately ⚠️

Let’s spread awareness, not fear —
because sometimes, one shared post can save a life 🧡

The GAYR team is excited to share our latest article! 🧪

Colchicine in COVID-19: hype vs. reality?
Our systematic review and meta-analysis of 17 RCTs (25,478 patients) shows:
❌ No significant reduction in 28-day mortality, ICU admissions, or ventilation needs
📊 Biomarkers like CRP and LDH showed no clear benefit
✅ Conclusion: more large-scale, standardized trials are needed

🔍 Evidence matters. Let’s move forward with science, not speculation.

How to Choose a Research Topic That Matters:

Choosing the right research topic is challenging and difficult, as choosing the right topic keeps you motivated through a research journey that sometimes could be long.

The biggest challenge is to find something relevant and feasible at the same time. Here are some tips to help you:

1. Find your interests and strengths:
A research journey may take a long time so choosing a speciality or topic that keeps you interested and motivated could make this journey easier and engaging.

2. Check relevance of the idea:
Does your research questions fill a knowledge gap or present a practical solution for a social, health or environmental issue.

3. Review existing literature:
Screening published studies and reading recent articles can help you detect gaps and find problems that need to be addressed even though it helps you to avoid repeating existing work.

4. Check novelty and value:
It's not necessary for your idea to make a groundbreaking discovery, but it should at least add a valuable contribution.

To find the value of your research topic, ask yourself these questions:

What contributions will this idea add to the field?

Is it worth the time and money?

5. Consider feasibility and balance:
A too broad question may feel inapplicable, while a too narrow one may lack depth. Ask yourself:

Do I have the resources and time that project needs to be completed?

6. Ask for your mentor's feedback:
Always ask professionals in the field about your idea and research question, whether it is specific or needs to be refined.
