Featured article : Techreef

In the first of its kind in the history of Indian science and medicine, the health minister A Ramadoss has ordered a test. In a recent study at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), rats were subjected to radiation from mobile phones. They were found to have damaged DNA and a very low sperm count. This were leading reduction in size of testis and infertility. The Union health ministry now wants to find out whether cellphones could have same adverse effects on our health. A study earlier had found out that if cell phones are kept in the pockets of your pants, the infertility levels could be higher. The excessive growth of telecom in India is prompting the medicine industry to investigate into such matters and whether in long term, they could affect the health of people.
This 5 yr study will be conducted by JNU’s School of Environmental Sciences and AIIMS ( neurology, obstetrics and gynaecology,biochemistry)

Vitamins and Water Heal

A vitamin is an organic compound, which is required as a nutrient in tiny amounts by an organism. They are classified by their biological activity and have diverse biochemical functions. Earlier vitamins were obtained solely through the daily food intake. The changes in in diet could occur during a particular growing season and can alter the types and amounts of vitamins ingested. Human bodies do not store vitamins and hence it is very essential for a person to have a regular intake of vitamins. The Well-known human vitamin deficiencies involve thiamine (beriberi), niacin (pellagra), vitamin C (scurvy) and vitamin D (rickets).

BIRD FLU FACTS

What is bird flu?
Bird flu, or avian influenza, is an infectious disease of birds caused by type A strains of the influenza virus. Bird flu epidemics have occurred worldwide. The recent spread of bird flu has been localised to certain parts of Asia.
Migratory waterfowl – most notably wild ducks – are the natural reservoir of bird flu viruses. It is suspected that infection can spread from wild fowl to domestic poultry, including chickens and turkeys, and then to humans. Live bird markets have also played an important role in the spread of epidemics.The type currently causing concern is the “highly pathogenic” Asian strain of the H5N1 virus. Scientists have discovered four different subtypes of H5N1, and there could well be more. However, all are deadly to birds, and can cause disease – and death – in humans. However, it is important to note that H5N1 is overwhelmingly a disease that affects birds – and not humans.
It is true that humans have been infected, but almost all have been poultry workers who have come into intimate contact with birds. H5N1 cannot pass easily from human to human.
How do humans get bird flu?
Bird flu was thought only to infect birds until the first human cases

Doctors of Death

I have noticed that in the past few months a lot of people are dying from cancer, which the doctor is not able to diagnose early. Also the medical profession has been turned into a commercial business. They recommend many tests which are costly and have a tie up with the testing centers.

A Recent case

An employee in a well known company in NEW DELHI was admitted to MAX hospital when she became unconscious at work. On bringing her to the hospital they said it is an emergency and they will only look into the matter on admitting her. The admission fees are very high. When her colleague shouted at the doctor, then only he looked into the matter. It was just a matter of exertion which was turned into emergency.
