Genetic Evaluation: Challenges and Solutions
Genetic evaluation faces the challenge of obtaining accurate and comprehensive data on individuals, especially in large populations. Incomplete or missing data can significantly impact the accuracy and reliability of genetic evaluations. Another challenge lies in accounting for environmental factors that can influence the expression of genetic traits, making it difficult to isolate genetic effects. The availability of genetic markers that adequately represent the entire genome poses a challenge, as current marker sets may not capture the full genetic variation. Ensuring the consistency of genetic evaluation across different populations or breeds is a challenge due to genetic differences and varying environmental conditions. The rapid advancement of genetic technologies requires continuous adaptation of evaluation methods to keep up with new discoveries. Genetic evaluation can be hampered by the lack of standardized protocols and guidelines, leading to inconsistencies and difficulties in comparing results.

Upcoming Case Discussions
Gynaecologist’s Guide to Ovarian Cancer
Join us for a special webinar on World Ovarian Cancer Day, titled "Gynaecologist’s Guide to Ovarian Cancer." This expert-led session will delve into the latest advancements in early diagnosis, risk stratification, and evidence-based management of ovarian cancer. Tailored for gynecologists and healthcare professionals, the session will also explore real-world case discussions and multidisciplinary treatment approaches. Let’s come together to raise awareness and empower clinicians in the fight against this silent but deadly disease
Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
Sleep Apnea and Daytime Fatigue
Sleep Disorder Breathing is a term for a group of conditions with abnormal breathing patterns during sleep. This affects everyday functioning and well being.There are few types of SDB which include upper airways resistance, hypopnea, apnea, catathrenia and heavy snoring. People suffering with SDB can have daytime symptoms that result in poor sleep also. There can also be sleepiness, depressed mood, irritability and cognitive dysfunction.
