Dostarlimab an immune check point inhibitor (PD1 receptor inhibitor) shows remission in 100% cases of colorectal cancer. Good news for cancer patients overall, as redirecting immune system towards cancer cells is proving to be an effective modality.

This blanket rule to include each and every fmg is ridiculous @NMC_IND @mansukhmandviya . Why? 1. Online classes were for everyone during COVID times. So why this partiality? 2. Why include 1st year and 2nd year students in this?

Precocious puberty is on a rise world wide mostly females. What could be the cause? Apparently triclosan, a broad spectrum antimicrobial used as additive in sanitizers and other products. Triclosan can disrupt endocrine system due to its estrogenic effect.

2 years internship for FMGs is unjustified. Adding another one year to internship isn’t going to make any drastic change in clinical acumen. This is just like an added hurdle in the life of FMGs. Please keep internship as 1 year @NMC_IND @MoHFW_INDIA #Thread #MedTwitter #FMGE
