Stretch for no stress: Medical instts prescribe mantra for soul and sehat
Lucknow: Medical institutions and hospitals across the city organized programmes to celebrate the International Yoga Day . At KGMU, the department of respiratory medicine shared insights from a study showing that combining yoga with standard asthma treatment significantly reduces depression, anxiety, and stress. Prof RAS Kushwaha, said that the results reinforced yoga's potential in improving mental health. RMLIMS held a yoga camp attended by over 800 students, doctors, and staff. Led by yoga guru Om Narayan Awasthi, the session began with a street play. Institute's director Prof CM Singh said that just 30 minutes of daily yoga could significantly benefit both body and mind. At Ram Sagar Mishra Hospital in Bakshi Ka Talab, medical staff, under the guidance of Dr VK Sharma and yoga instructor Uma Devi, participated in the yoga session. Balrampur Hospital hosted a mass yoga session at its new OPD block. Director Dr Dinesh Kumar underlined the importance of yoga in preventing lifestyle diseases. Senior consultant Dr Vishnu Kumar and CMS Dr SK Pandey highlighted positive impact of yoga on immunity. An event was held at Lok Bandhu Hospital where Satyendra Bari and Swatantra Prakash Gupta encouraged people to adopt yoga as a lifelong habit. Director Dr Sangeeta Gupta emphasised yoga's relevance in women's health, while CMS Dr Rajeev Dixit gave the slogan 'Karo Yog, Raho Nirog'. Max Hospital and Era Medical College also organised yoga camps focused on promoting regular practice for well-being. At Max Hospital, Dr Ambukeshwar Singh highlighted yoga's importance in improving the health of heart.

Axiom-4 astronauts to study insulin behaviour in microgravity, revolutionise diabetes treatment
New Delhi: Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla's Axiom-4 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) is set to offer a ray of hope for diabetics to travel to space, as a UAE-based healthcare provider is conducting an experiment on how glucose behaves in microgravity part of the "Suite Ride" experiment planned by Burjeel Holdings and Axiom Space, some astronauts of the Axiom-4 mission will be wearing continuous glucose monitors during their 14-day stay on board the orbital lab. The studies of the behaviour of glucose and insulin in microgravity conditions will help scientists develop wearable technologies for astronauts and patients who are bedridden or have limited mobility due to illnesses such as paralysis. "We are trying just to see if there is any change or fluctuation to the blood-sugar levels while they are in space," Mohammad Fityan, chief medical officer at Burjeel Holdings, Abu Dhabi, told PTI. The astronauts will also carry insulin pens in refrigerated and ambient temperatures to examine how the molecules respond to microgravity conditions. "We are hoping that if we learn something about the metabolism or the effect, we will bring some information and we can do something for our patients on Earth," Fityan said. Currently, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) does not allow insulin-dependent diabetics to travel to space. There are no official exclusions for non-insulin-dependent diabetics, but so far, no astronaut with diabetes has travelled to space. "It has the potential to transform the future of space travel for astronauts with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), a condition historically considered disqualifying for space missions," Fityan said. He said the study will pave the way for several innovative technologies and treatment approaches for developing advanced glucose-monitoring tools optimised for extreme or low-activity environments, improving wearable tech for both astronauts and patients with limited mobility on Earth. It will also help identify new pharmacologic targets by observing how metabolic and hormonal responses change in microgravity, leading to drugs that enhance insulin sensitivity or mimic the benefits of exercise in sedentary individuals. The AI-powered predictive models based on real-time physiologic data in space can be adapted to personalise diabetes care on Earth by forecasting insulin needs or metabolic shifts with higher accuracy. The research will also help develop remote monitoring platforms for continuous metabolic-data capture that could revolutionise diabetes care in underserved or remote areas on Earth as well as in tele-health settings.

At Pilibhit medical college, new moms suffer chemical burns after C-section; probe on
In a case of medical negligence, nearly a dozen women have reportedly suffered chemical burns on the back of their bodies during cesarean section (C-section) they underwent at the MCH or maternal and child health wing of the Pilibhit medical college. The surgeries under scrutiny took place over the last couple of weeks. The burns were severe enough to leave lasting scars. The issue has sparked widespread concern and administrative response. Allegedly, the burns occurred due to improper post-operative care. Medicines, such as antiseptic Betadine, used during the surgeries were allegedly not properly cleaned from the patients' bodies before they were shifted to the ward. Meanwhile, some doctors pointed to the possibility of the mishandling of medical equipment such as the diathermy machine. The incident came to public attention when images of one patient's back with burn injuries surfaced on social media, prompting officials to take action. Although the authenticity of these images has not been verified, the authorities have launched an investigation. Among the affected women is Chaman Devi, a resident of Gajraula region, who underwent a C-section on June 2. Other patients who have alleged negligence by the hospital are Princi, Birla Devi, Roop Devi, and Raskumari. In response to the allegations, chief medical officer (CMO) Dr. Alok Kumar Sharma has issued a notice to the MCH chief medical superintendent (CMS). 'This incident highlights gross negligence during post-operative care of new mothers. A notice has been served to the CMS, and we are awaiting a detailed explanation,' the CMO said. Dr. Sangeeta Aneja, the principal of medical college, said: 'Disinfectants such as Betadine used during C-sections were not cleaned properly after the surgery. This is a clear case of negligence. We are investigating the matter and will take appropriate action.'
