Serendipitous crossed aldol reaction in the second coordination sphere of a Ru(II) polypyridyl complex in silica bed: prospect for delivering anticancer agents for photoactivated chemotherapy
Serendipitous crossed aldol reaction in the second coordination sphere of a Ru(II) polypyridyl complex in silica bed: prospect for delivering anticancer agents for photoactivated chemotherapy Abstract The localized drug action in tumors to overcome the side effects of chemotherapy became an impetus for the development of photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT). As potential PACT agents, ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes have emerged as efficient photocages for anticancer agents.

Intestinal Epithelial PTPN2 Limits Pathobiont Colonization by Immune-Directed Antimicrobial Responses
Abstract Background and Aims: Loss of activity of the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) susceptibility gene, protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2), is associated with altered microbiome composition in both human subjects and mice. Further, expansion of the bacterial pathobiont, adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC), is strongly linked to IBD pathogenesis.

If Modi govt wants to control population, it must target high fertility rates in these states
Representational image | Mitesh Bhuvad | PTI Text Size: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s concerns over population explosion are warranted. Even if fertility in India were to immediately drop to replacement levels, India is still projected to add over 185 million or 18.5 crore people between 2019 and 2050. There is no historical precedence for modern democratic governments, which uphold individual liberties, to equitably and effectively provide for a billion-plus population.
Rahul Gandhi’s Amethi, Sonia’s Rae Bareli & Maneka-Varun’s Pilibhit rank low on nutrition
File Photo | Congress president Rahul Gandhi and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi during the manifesto release | Shahbaz Khan/PTI Text Size: As India votes in the Lok Sabha elections, parliamentary constituencies that voted the same parliamentarian for repeat terms, or for the kin of the serving legislators, are falling behind on key nutrition indicators.
Delhi government plans health survey of children under five
The first pucca road at Peeragarhi relief camp, which was laid two days before CM Arvind Kejriwal visited the area on Sunday. (Source: Express photo by Ravi Kanojia) After launching the first of their promised 1,000 mohalla clinics last month, the Delhi government will be launching another project to help reduce the gap between hospitals and the people — this time for young children.
Bangladeshis can teach Narendra Modi's India a thing or two about using toilets
Bangladesh model is against subsidy driven construction of toilets, focusing instead on generating collective community demand. A year before Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched his ambitious Swachh Bharat Mission (SBA) in India, a fascinating sanitation story was taking shape in neighbouring Bangladesh. Its open defecation-free (ODF) rates fell from 42 per cent in 2003 to 3-5 per cent between 2010 and 2015.
The ‘c’ in Swachh Bharat is caste and Modi needs to address it
Manual scavenging is a reality and Dalit women, particularly, will be forced to shoulder the burden of cleaning dry pits. Prime Minister Narendra Modi frequently tweets appreciation for on-ground workers of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (SBA). One such widely shared post was an image of the secretary in the ministry of drinking water and sanitation, Parameswaran Iyer, going down a double-pit toilet in a rural home and cleaning it. He was lauded because he“did not even use gloves”.
Amitabh Bachchan may be a great actor but even he can't get Indians into toilets for Modi
The programme should turn people into willing toilet users and not because Amitabh Bachchan may shame them for open defecation. When Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the Swachh Bharat drive four years ago, he said open defecation was a threat to the dignity of women. It wasn’t the first time India’s sanitation programme placed women’s honour at the heart of the toilet campaign.
In mad race for targets, Modi’s Swachh Bharat could fumble the same way UPA plans did
Setting ambitious deadlines for toilet construction takes the focus away from providing long-term solutions for rural sanitation. This 15 August will mark the fourth anniversary of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s clarion call to rid India of open defecation. As we inch closer towards the envisioned deadline of 2 October 2019, one thing stands out: the stark similarity in sanitation programmes across different governments and political hues since 1986.
A nudge is better than a push
The World Immunisation Week that ended Monday offers a good opportunity to revisit a draft medical policy approved by the Kerala cabinet in February 2018. It proposed a mandatory vaccination “certificate” for children seeking admission to primary school. Linking education and vaccination in such a manner raises a pertinent issue around immunisation — about personal choice versus public (health) good.
MCI corrupt, clinical trials body a snake pit: Harsh Vardhan
Doctors don't come from heaven. The day child gets admitted in school corruption begins. When students/parents pay capitation fee to get admission in medical college and this capitation goes beyond Rs one crore even for PG seats. Coporate hospitals are like 5 star hotels then Harsh Vardan can only fume. Let him as a Union Minister ensure Govt Hospitals in Delhi and state capitals become public friendly. this if he able to do in next one year it will be a good start.
Which side of my brain should I put to sleep?
There are two kinds of people in this world, the data people, and the non-data people. The universe, as we know it, is thus sliced, in harmonious, mutually exclusive, mutually exhaustive dichotomy. In the history of entrenched stereotypes, this is a tale as old as time. In fact, it is so pervasive that it is difficult to articulate it with certainty. We are conditioned to recognise the giveaways for each category. But then, trying to be pithy about these intuitive conclusions can be troublesome.
The curious case of the Indian marriage prospect
After six years in journalism, I came to the United States for a master’s degree. Ignorant of the cocktail of disillusionment, self-doubt, and struggle that lay ahead, I was on top of the world. Perhaps, a story for another day. About half way through the program, my relationship of nine years limped to its fatigued end, propelling me into virtual matrimonial communities of those archetypal creatures, Non Resident Indians (NRIs).
Impact evaluation: Why flagship BPL health insurance scheme is in rather poor health
In India’s public health calendar, the recent past has been eventful. The head of the Indian Council of Medical Research, Dr Soumya Swaminathan, has become the first Indian on the global leadership team of the World Health Organisation. The Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, the state with one of India’s worst health indicators, has challenged Kerala, by far the best performer on those indicators, to “see how the system works” in his state.
India’s toilet use challenge and the dilemma of human behaviour
By Pritha Chatterjee and Dr K. Viswanath, Harvard School of Public Health The single biggest problem in communication, as the erudite George Bernard Shaw worried, is the illusion that it has taken place. While this applies profoundly in many areas of public health, the open defecation challenge in India lends itself as a particularly telling illustration.

DGP faces flak but many gaps in Badaun girls’ murder probe
Uttar Pradesh DGP A L Banerjee is facing Opposition flak for saying on Saturday that they were exploring other theories in the death of two cousins in Badaun’s Katra Sadatganj village. However, The Indian Express has found that there are many inconsistencies in what has been considered a case of rape and murder so far.
CBI gets Badaun autopsy video, speaks to doctor
Taking over investigations into the May 28 incident in Badaun where two girls were found hanging from a mango tree after being allegedly raped, the CBI on Saturday questioned a doctor of the three-member team which conducted the post-mortem examination. Last week, Uttar Pradesh DGP A L Banerjee said one of the two girls, who were cousins, “may not have been raped” and that they were hanged after their death.
Kin of other victims flock to village to catch VIP attention
Even as families of the two cousins receive high profile visitors who promise them speedy action, many in Katra Sadatganj village flash documents of cases pertaining to missing or murdered family members and complain of police inaction. Several of these people travel everyday from neighbouring villages of Badaun district, hoping to get the attention of VIP visitors.
Eid gift for this Saharanpur family means child’s surgery in Delhi
For most Muslim families in riot-hit Saharanpur, it was subdued Eid celebrations this year. But for Mohammad Rashid and his family, it was their “best Eid”. It was the day their 14-month-old baby, Zubair, was operated upon in a Delhi hospital for a serious lung condition, after which doctors told them he would be able to breathe normally. But had Rashid not listened to his heart — and the advice of people back home — it would have been a different story.

Lessons from Gorakhpur
Written by Pritha Chatterjee | Updated: August 18, 2017 7:17 am At least 71 children lost their lives due to encephalitis since August 7. (Source: Express photo by Vishal Srivastav) The Gorakhpur tragedy has two very pertinent facets and it is important to separate them. The first, obviously, is the acute face of the tragedy: the shortage of oxygen supply in the critical care unit of a tertiary care public hospital.
