@M9USA_ I was denied a US visa three times during my USMLE journey. Looking back, I’m genuinely happier being close to my family. India is progressing rapidly, and I feel it’s a safer place to build my future. In the end, everything unfolds as God intends and our destiny.
@naralokesh Rare diseases have long remained outside mainstream public policy discussions. Bringing together doctors, researchers, etc to shape a dedicated state-level rare disease framework is appreciable.
Applause to Lokesh garu for taking an important step.
To my father, who is no longer with me today, but is the reason I am who I am.
It’s been 5 years and I miss you every day, Nanna.
Happy Father’s Day ❤️

Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) scoring is changing how we predict heart disease.
In our review, we analyzed 109 studies and found that CAC detects risk far better than traditional calculators helping guide statin & aspirin decisions with real precision.
Traditional risk scores (like age, cholesterol, BP) don’t always catch who will actually get heart disease.
CAC is a CT scan that shows the amount of calcium in heart arteries.
More calcium = higher risk.
Zero calcium = very low chance of a heart attack in the next few years.
CAC predicts heart attack & stroke risk far better than older calculators.
🔹 A CAC score of 0 means you may safely avoid unnecessary statins.
🔹 CAC ≥100 strongly supports starting statins ± aspirin.
🔹 AI tools can detect CAC on routine chest CT scans — making screening cheaper & easier.
Using CAC can prevent:
✔ Overtreating low-risk people
✔ Undertreating truly high-risk people
✔ Unnecessary lifelong medications
Grateful for the learning journey.

@SwiggyCares Received a call from Mr. Amit from Swiggy escalation support the next day. He tracked down the issue clearly and solved it. Appreciate him doing that. Suggested him to take a strict action on @CareDominos Dominos Ashok nagar branch, Hyderabad for committing a fraud like this.
@Swiggy@SwiggyCares I need an explanation for Order #239214077388043.
Dominos ID: 181
• Ordered from Domino's RC Reddy Colony on 31 May at 9:51 PM.
• Waited over 1.5 hours and personally visited the outlet only to find it already closed.
@IndiaToday I came across this yesterday and found it quite disturbing. I still remember our Anatomy HOD performing a pooja for the cadavers before our first dissection. Cadavers are precious to us they are our first teachers. They deserve respect and gratitude, not insensitive discussion.
How a made-in-India antibiotic opens new front against superbugs
Wockhardt's Zaynich received FDA approval after 14 years of R&D. A made-in-India antibiotic hitting drug-resistant infections that kill nearly 3 lakh Indians every year (more than cancer, diabetes & kidney disease combined).
With a 97% success rate in clinical trials against the hardest-to-treat hospital infections, this is the breakthrough doctors have been waiting for.
At $10,000–$12,000 per treatment course in the US, Zaynich's India pricing is still unannounced
@SwiggyCares I've been waiting for the past ten days and no one has responded.
I would like to send a legal notice. Please provide me with the Swiggy grievance details.
