Our bodies are complex systems that are always working to stay balanced. At the centre of this balance is a process called oxidative stress. It can affect different aspects of our health, including the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Understanding oxidative stress and its connection to GI diseases is not merely a scientific curiosity; it’s a key…
Today, advanced medical research and innovative molecular diagnostic technologies can efficiently control, treat and even cure many deadly diseases. Among them is the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, commonly known as HIV, which, as the name suggests, attacks our immune system. Often confused with AIDS (we debunk this myth in one of our previous articles), HIV develops…

It’s the first thing a doctor would recommend when a patient displays related symptoms and/or has a suspicious-looking lump. A tissue biopsy involves extracting cells from the tumour for…
Respiratory viruses, such as influenza, have posed a significant health concern due to their ability to trigger widespread illness and even pandemics. The healthcare sector plays a vital role in understanding these viruses and their impact on the human body. One fascinating aspect that researchers have been exploring is the relationship between these viruses and…
Oxidative stress, though often overlooked, is closely linked to our well-being and quietly influences our health. It occurs when there’s an imbalance between the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and the body’s ability to counteract their harmful effects. While ROS are natural byproducts of essential cellular processes, excessive levels cause serious problems in our…

Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins (Ig), are essential components of our immune system. They fortify the body’s immune system to combat bacterial, viral, or antigenic infections and prevent them from impacting human cells. Antibodies are Y-shaped immunoglobulin molecules (Ig) produced by B lymphocytes or plasma cells that activate the primary response of the adaptive immune…
Until a few decades ago, sexual health was rarely a topic of public discussion in some parts of the world. While this subject remains a taboo even today in some places, one cannot ignore its importance in an individual’s well-being and overall health. Many factors may lead to sexual health issues, stress being one of…
