Books & journals : Propel the career of MBBS doctors
Medical literature is the scientific literature of medicine: articles in journals and texts in books devoted to the field of medicine. Many references to the medical literature include the health care literature generally, including that of dentistry, veterinary medicine, pharmacy, nursing, and the allied health professions. Original articles describe methods, results, discussion and conclusions and new research that is conducted by the authors. Although according to the evidence-based medicine consensus the randomized controlled trials are the gold-standard for medical research, currently, they constitute only a minority of conducted research. Reviews are an overview of one particular topic of clinical interest in order to refresh the readers' memory, to enhance an emergence concept or to summarize recent publications that haven't appeared in the textbooks yet. Other types of reviews are the systematic reviews and the meta-analysis in which a specific clinical dilemma is answered by collecting and summarizing all published data regarding this question. Case reports are descriptions of clinical cases of rare phenomenon or a new clinical method. Case reports may be of value in assessing unusual medical conditions that cannot be studied in clinical trials. Currently, most of the top-ranked medical journals do not publish case reports because of space constraints or a preference for larger, more definitive studies.

Upcoming Case Discussions
Technology Integration with Healthcare
Technology integration in healthcare is transforming the way medical services are delivered, enhancing efficiency and patient outcomes. Innovations such as telemedicine, electronic health records (EHR), and wearable devices allow for real-time monitoring and improved accessibility. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning aid in early diagnosis and personalized treatment plans. Robotic surgeries and advanced imaging techniques offer precision and reduced recovery times. By combining technology with healthcare, providers can streamline operations, improve patient engagement, and deliver cost-effective care solutions.
Pediatric Obesity: Treatment Management
Treatment management for pediatric obesity combines lifestyle changes, family support, and, in severe cases, medical interventions. Family-based strategies are key, encouraging healthy eating habits, regular physical activity, and reduced screen time. Behavioral therapy helps set achievable goals and address barriers, empowering children and families to make sustainable lifestyle adjustments. Dietitians often assist in designing individualized meal plans that focus on nutrient-rich foods and limit calorie-dense options. In cases of severe obesity with related health conditions, medications or surgery may be considered, particularly for adolescents. Continuous monitoring and support from healthcare providers are essential for long-term success and health improvement.
Hemodialysis: Overview
Hemodialysis is a medical procedure used to treat kidney failure by filtering waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood. This process involves diverting blood from the body to a dialysis machine, where it passes through a special filter called a dialyzer. The cleaned blood is then returned to the body. Hemodialysis is typically performed in a hospital or dialysis center, though some patients can perform it at home. This treatment is essential for individuals with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or severe kidney dysfunction, helping to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Regular sessions, usually three times a week, are required to maintain the patient’s health and prevent complications.
Tailoring Treatment: AI as a Partner in Care
AI plays an important role in dose optimization and adverse medication event prediction, providing major improvements to patient safety and treatment outcomes. Healthcare providers can use AI algorithms to adjust prescription dosages for specific patients and forecast potential adverse drug events, lowering risks and enhancing patient care.
Oral Hypoglycemic Drugs
The most effective management of diabetes mellitus demands an interprofessional approach involving both lifestyle modifications with diet and exercise and pharmacologic therapies as necessary to meet individualized glycemic goals. Lifestyle modifications must be combined with oral pharmacologic agents for optimal glycemic control, particularly as type 2 diabetes mellitus progresses with continued loss of pancreatic beta-cell function and insulin production. This activity outlines the indications, mechanisms of action, methods of administration, significant adverse effects, contraindications, monitoring, and toxicity of oral hypoglycemic medications, so providers can direct patient therapy to optimal outcomes where glycemic control and diabetes play a role in outcomes.
