This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 3rd of March and here are the headlines.Influencer Ranveer Allahbadia has asked the Supreme Court to allow him to continue airing his shows, calling it his "only source of livelihood." This request comes as the court hears pleas to consolidate FIRs linked to the ‘India's Got Latent' controversy. The court granted him interim protection from arrest but ordered him to surrender his passport and seek approval before leaving India. The controversy began when Allahbadia made controversial remarks about parents on comedian Samay Raina's show, sparking public outrage and multiple FIRs.The BJP criticized Congress on Monday after INC spokesperson Shama Mohamed's now-deleted X post fat-shamed Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma. Bhandari, BJP national spokesperson, condemned Congress for targeting Sharma, saying, “Shame on Congress! Are they expecting Rahul Gandhi to play cricket after his political failures?” Mohamed's post, which criticized Sharma's weight during the India vs New Zealand Champions Trophy match, called him “fat for a sportsman” and questioned his capabilities as captain. The post quickly garnered backlash before being deleted.Jammu and Kashmir Lt Governor Manoj Sinha reaffirmed his government's commitment to restoring full statehood for the union territory. Speaking at the opening of the Budget Session, he acknowledged the emotional and political significance of statehood to the people of J&K and emphasized ongoing efforts to engage stakeholders. Sinha stated that the government is working to address the people's desires while ensuring peace, stability, and progress. His remarks come as political activity in J&K intensifies, with opposition parties challenging the government on sensitive issues like Article 370.Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed readiness to sign a minerals deal with the United States, despite not finalizing it during his visit to Washington. Zelenskyy acknowledged the challenges of his meeting with US President Donald Trump but reaffirmed Ukraine's openness to constructive dialogue. He emphasized that Ukraine's position needs to be heard. The minerals deal was seen as a step towards strengthening security ties between the two nations. However, tensions over peace talks with Russia have led to growing frustrations between the US and Ukraine.The 97th Academy Awards celebrated the best in filmmaking, with “Anora” emerging as the biggest winner of the night.

Hair Transplant Podcast - HAIR TALK with Dr.John Watts Hair Transplant Surgeon and Dermatologist

This is segment II from a 6-hour sound capture we took earlier this year at Kielder Forest in Northumberland. Recorded in spring, the environment is rich with birdsong, mainly willow warblers whose song is a short and very cheerful descending scale. We'd been walking along one of the rough paths that thread through the forest below the Kielder Observatory and had found exactly what we'd travelled up to this specific area to record. The hushing sound of wind in tall fir trees. Of course these are no ordinary trees. They are Grandis Firs. Vertically vast. Each the size of a 15 storey tower block, with huge drooping boughs draped in billions of tiny pine needles. Every needle catches in the wind and converts the energy into audible sound. Individually it's hard to imagine one could hear anything produced from one needle at all, but heard altogether, the sound is powerful. Deeply moving. Akin even to a spiritual experience. After finding a suitable tree to rest the Lento box against, we left it behind in the forest to record the scene alone, hoping the wind would not die down. The wind continued to blow in slow undulating waves. And the willow warblers continued to sing their lovely droopy songs, no doubt perched on the droopy boughs of the giant firs. But the trees and the birds were not the only aural presences in this part of the forest. There's a rushing stream, flowing from left to right of scene. It issues its own fresh bright sound to the interior space of the forest, as it rushes down into the valley to join the city-sized reservoir below. * At 18 minutes into this segment a plane flies over, but don't worry, it's relatively soft and gentle, flying high up above the clouds. It may initially be hard to tell whether the white noise is from the stream or wind in the firs in this recording. Over time, and as your ears adjust to the aural environment, the distinct qualities of the stream and the wind in the firs may resolve out. Both are highly spatial and texturally different. They often blend into one another, then part, like vails woven from different fabrics, billowing together in currents of air. ** Follow us on Bluesky or Ko-fi to keep up with Lento news. We recently celebrated a big Lento milestone!
#280. “The turkey goes ‘gobble gobble' and then he gets his head chopped off. Whack!” That, believe it or not, is a weird Thanksgiving song. Weird and Thanksgiving gatherings can also overlap on the dinner table. Dillon goes through a list of odd dishes as we play “smash or pass,” and we would love to hear some of YOUR highs and lows from that list via the LinkTree below! On the back half, we enter Christmas decorating mode and discuss tree traditions, the possibility of those traditions shifting, and do a headcount of Christmas trees in our homes. Then it's on to streaming. This week we're watching Orange is the New Black, Return of the King: The Fall and Rise of Elvis Presley, An Idiot Abroad, and Game 7. Enjoy!

The thought of taking a mammogram is often scary for women, but it's a highly important medical exam, and one we should bear in mind in the context of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Like with any type of cancer, the earlier breast cancer is detected, the better the patient's chances of recovery. And a mammogram can detect abnormalities that are too difficult to spot by only sight and touch. Why are mammograms recommended for women over the age of 50? Can women with breast implants or small breasts do the examination? We answer all your questions in under 3 minutes!

Fir trees don't have what you might call normal leaves. Their leaves are needles. Each tree possesses many needles, too many to count. Especially when the height of these trees ranges from 12 to 23 stories high. Concentrated in these myriad tiny needles, is a wonderful and special power. Position yourself deep within a fir forest, with even the slightest of breezes blowing high above, and you'll feel it. You'll notice it first as a sound in your ears, but that is only where it starts. The softest, the most velvety, the most spatially rich sound imaginable. Without realising it, the sound passes from your ears to become a sigh In your chest and lungs. Further it flows, permeating through your whole body. The more you tune yourself into the sound of the fir trees, the more you still your own motion, the more you detach from the need to think of anything else, the more the waves of relief flow. The sensation is real, a palpable response to the aural awe diffusing down into the spaces beneath the firs. Fir trees we feel create such powerful and yet enchantingly delicate sounds, that since experiencing them high in the hills of Dentdale last summer we knew we had to try to capture more. More fir trees in more different contexts, across more ground. That meant we had ultimately to go to the Kielder Forest, the largest fir plantation in England. This sound capture is from a location in the Kielder Forest called Forest Drive. After reaching the area and then following rough tracks cut through the forest over several miles, we reached a place where a huge section of plantation was visible processing down the valley. Row, after row, after row of tall fir trees. The effect was enchanting, and fixed us to the spot. As we stood looking the wind began to rise in the treetops. The sound came. Velvet brown waves, of physically rejuvenating sound. It took our breaths away. If you are able to find a quiet and still spot to listen to this episode with a pair of good headphones or Airpods with noise cancellation, the Lento microphones have managed to faithfully capture quite a lot of the aural perfection that existed inside this huge forest, on that warm and blowy spring day earlier this year.

Hey, y'all! Welcome to episode 61 of the Roots and Refuge Podcast. In today's episode I'm sharing my best gardening advice for both new and experienced gardeners alike. Since spring has sprung where I live, and I know it's just around the corner for you northern folks, I thought this was the perfect time of year to give a highlight reel of the key lessons I've learned as a gardener. Whether you're just starting out or you just need a bit of a reminder after years of gardening, these tips are sure to get you excited about this season's potential. Firs thing I want to explore is the importance of considering the value of your harvest beyond just dollars. What you grow has a huge impact on how long you stick with it! Why are you growing it? What are your plans for using it when it's ready to harvest? I also love talking about how I've 'debunked' the companion planting myth in my own garden. Ultimately, if you're planting diversely you'll probably succeed by creating a balanced ecosystem. But don't stress too much about it, balancing your gardens ecosystem is a years long goal that comes from focusing on good stewardship. Finally we talk all about the crucial role of soil health and the benefits of feeding and covering your soil to create that balanced ecosystem in your soil that fosters robust plant growth. Don't miss out on this episode packed with essential gardening wisdom! And be sure to check out the mentioned blog post on how to make compost tea for even more valuable insights.

It's the second episode of KaiJUNE and we're met with a familiar voice we all know and love but haven't heard enough of in awhile, JOSH! Also Jesse returns, to help talk about the 2006 Kaiju inspired movie The Host!Before the two hosts can talk the Host there are three trailers that have caught their attention. Firs ton deck is the trailer for the Cocaine Bear inspired flick, Crack Coon! Will it surpass the decent bar that Cocaine Bear laid out for drugged up animal movies?Then everyone that listens regularly to the podcast knows that Josh is a Stallone fan, so a 4th Expendables film should be able to at least grab his attention. But can it still do that when it's a handing over of the reigns to Statham as the lead?Finally we get a Nicolas Cage freak out for two minutes of trailer with Sympathy for the Devil. Can an uncaged Cage ever look bad?After the three trailers the hosts dig into the The Host and will let you all know the answer to the most important questions of all; is The Host... A BLOODY GOOD FILM!?and remember...

This week, host Basant Kumar is joined by The Quint's reporter Himanshi Dahiya, founder of Main Media Tanzil Asif and senior journalist from ETV Bihar Umesh Pandey. In view of the World Press Freedom Day, the panel discusses the state of media in India, and the challenges staring it. The conversation is stirred by an acknowledgement of the recent decline in India's press freedom ranking and the government's subsequent denial on the subject. Himanshi takes us through her experiences as a mediaperson and emphasises that media spaces only have a faint presence of women, while men still dominate the landscape. “The male gaze and dominance are still pervasive in the media.” Tanzil shares his experience of doing hyper-local journalism, and its hazards in contrast with the mainstream media. He recounts the fears that accompany matters involving local representatives, who often pressure journalists. While Tanzil talks about the onslaught on press freedom, Umesh explains his circumstances as a local journalist in Bihar and how his ground reports led to the filing of FIRs against him.

En este episodio vamos a hablar del estudio Defibrillation Strategies for Refractory Ventricular Fibrillation (Estrategias de Desfibrilación para Fibrilación Ventricular Refractaria, DOSE VF) que demostró que los pacientes que reciben un desfibrilación en secuencia doble y/o un cambio en el vector, tienen mayor probabilidad de éxito cuando tienen fibrilación ventricular refractaria. Decimos que algo es "refractario" a tratamiento cuando no responde a las medidas estándares. En el caso de la fibrilación ventricular refractaria, nos referimos a los pacientes que persisten en fibrilación ventricular a pesar de haber recibido varias descargas y medicamentos dirigidos a ayudar a convertir el ritmo. ¿Qué hacer cuando las recomendaciones tradicionales no funcionan para revertir el paciente en fibrilación ventricular refractaria? Estudio DOSE VF Población de pacientes Recibieron terapia estándar (epinefrina, amiodarona y están intubados) Un mínimo de 3 descargas eléctricas Siguen en fibrilación ventricular o TV sin pulso Intervención Desfibrilación en secuencia doble (antero-lateral + antero-posterior) Desfibrilación con cambio de vector (antero-posterior) https://youtu.be/NmoERV9EmG0 https://youtu.be/E4UWZ_X3XnI Comparación Desfibrilación estándar (antero-lateral) Resultados esperados Resultado primario Sobrevivencia al egreso del hospital Resultados secundarios Terminación de la fibrilación ventricular Retorno de circulación espontánea Escala Modificada de Ranking (MRS) ≤ 2 ¿Qué encontraron? El estudio reclutó 405 pacientes en Canadá con fibrilación ventricular refractaria. Para el resultado primario de sobrevivencia a egreso del hospital, los hallazgo de tratamiento estándar, cambio de vector y desfibrilación en secuencia doble fueron: 13.3% vs. 21.7% vs. 30.4% (p = 0.009). Para los resultados secundarios, en el mismo orden: Terminación de la fibrilación ventricular: 67.6% vs. 79.9% vs. 84.0% Retorno de circulación espontánea: 26.5% vs. 35.4% vs. 46.4% Puntuación MRS ≤2: 11.2% vs. 16.2% vs. 27.4% La desfibrilación en secuencia doble tuvo un efecto positivo en todos los resultados tanto primarios como secundarios para pacientes con fibrilación ventricular refractaria. El cambio en el vector fue positivo para todos los resultados excepto para egreso con un estado neurológico de igual o menos de 2 en la Escala Modificada de Rankin. Lógica detrás de la descarga doble y el cambio en vector Para que una descarga eléctrica sea exitosa en terminar la fibrilación ventricular (desfibrilar el corazón), la descarga tiene que cubrir la totalidad del ventrículo. Quizás muchos tenemos la idea de que la descarga cubre una gran cantidad de territorio de la cavidad toracica. Por ejemplo, estamos acostumbrados a oir la orden de alejarnos para no recibir la descarga, etc. Pero la realidad del caso es que la energía viaja en dirección de un electrodo al otro en línea recta, y las zonas que están más lejos de esa línea recta no reciben la misma cantidad de energía. La realidad del caso es que el ventrículo necesita que la energía viaje a través de todo el ventrículo. Tiene que haber corriente presente en todo el miocardio. Según el Dr. Dorian, cuando la desfibrilación falla, ocurre porque falla en la región donde hay menor gradiente o densidad de voltaje, el área que está más lejos de una línea recta entre los dos parchos. Los electrofisiólogos han utilizado exitosamente la estrategia de cambio de vector y descargas simultáneas para las cardioversiones de fibrilación atrial. Aunque la fibrilación ventricular no es lo mismo que la fibrilación atrial, y la descarga en el laboratorio de electrofisiología no es lo mismo que la descarga fuera del hospital, la teoría detrás de cambiar la posición de los parches está bien fundamentada. La técnica de desfibrilación en secuencia doble data desde mediados de los años 2000 cuando los doctores José Cabañas y Brent Myers en Wake County EMS comenzaron a probarlo y lo propusieron como terapia alternativa en el 2015. 50% de RCE solamente con SVB/BLS Debido a que el estudio incluyó proveedores de soporte vital básico, no todos los pacientes recibieron soporte vital avanzado de inicio. De 31 pacientes que solamente recibieron SVB/BLS, los resultados de la terapia estándar, cambio de vector, y desfibrilación en secuencia doble son: Terminación de la fibrilación (total 87.1%) 83.3% - Estándar 80.0% - Cambio de vector 93.3% - Secuencia doble Retorno de circulación espontánea (total 58%) 50.0% - Estándar 30.0% - Cambio de vector 80.0% - Secuencia doble Sobrevivencia (total 50%) 50.0% - Estándar 22.2% - Cambio de vector 66.7% - Secuencia doble Puntuación MRS ≤2 (total 92.9%) 100.0% - Estándar 100.0% - Cambio de vector 88.9% - Secuencia doble ¿Por qué esos resultados están tan bonitos? ¿Po que, po que, po que? Desde hace mucho tiempo sabemos que el éxito del manejo del paro cardiaco es multi-factorial y desproporcionadamente inclinado a favor de llevar a cabo la técnica de RCP casi a la perfección. La edad promedio fue 64 y el 84% fueron hombres. Un 68% de los paros cardiacos fueron presenciados y el 58% recibió RCP por testigos. Tiempo medio de llamada a primera descarga 10.2 min - Estándar 10.4 min - Cambio de vector 10.2 min - Secuencia doble Pausa pre-descarga 6.5 seg - Estándar 6.1 seg - Cambio de vector 6.4 seg - Secuencia doble Pausa pos-descarga 4.8 seg - Estándar 5.2 seg - Cambio de vector 4.5 seg - Secuencia doble Frecuencia de las compresiones 109.8 por minuto - Estándar 111.1 por minuto - Cambio de vector 111.7 por minuto - Secuencia doble Profundidad de las compresiones 6.0 cm - Estándar 5.9 cm - Cambio de vector 5.7 cm - Secuencia doble Fracción de compresión torácica 83.1% - Estándar 80.8% - Cambio de vector 79.1% - Secuencia doble Tiempo medio desde llegada hasta RCE 14.8 min - Estándar 15.8 min - Cambio de vector 14.0 min - Secuencia doble Tiempo medio desde llegada hasta salida de la escena 25.0 min - Estándar 27.5 min - Cambio de vector 26.5 min - Secuencia doble Epinefrina administrada 94.9% - Estándar 92.4% - Cambio de vector 85.6% - Secuencia doble Anti-arrítmico administrado 80.9% - Estándar 73.6% - Cambio de vector 73.6% - Secuencia doble Intubación prehospitalaria 38.2% - Estándar 50.0% - Cambio de vector 42.4% - Secuencia doble Del dicho al hecho hay un gran trecho. No es fácil decirlo y mucho menos hacerlo. RCP de alta calidad a nivel individual Deficiencias de la simulación crean cicatrices por el adiestramiento Colocación incorrecta de los electrodos RCP simulada Incorporar las herramientas guías (metrónomos, guía del monitor, etc.) No usarlas en la clase y esperar que de forma mágica la sepan usar. Coreografía entre los integrantes del equipo de trabajo Estar certificado no es lo mismo que estar credencializado. Si no tienes la coreografía correcta, se pierde todo el beneficio. No se trata de cómo tú lo haces individualmente, sino de cómo el equipo completo lo ejecuta al unísono. Este es un ejemplo de la importancia de una dirección médica efectiva. Podemos asumir que todos los proveedores del sistema estén certificados en BLS y ACLS. Eso no es suficiente para lograr esto. El curso es el primer paso necesario para poder validar las competencias a través de prácticas destinadas a dominar la coreografía. El curso puede lograr mucho si se lleva a cabo apropiadamente, o puede ser una pérdida de tiempo si no incluye nada de esto. ¿Un problema auto-infligido? Existe data que dice que la posición de electrodos antero-lateral es igual de efectiva que la posición antero-posterior. Esta es la base para que las guías del 2010 de la AHA digan que pueden usarse ambas. No obstante, hay una diferencia importante entre lo que dice el papel y lo que se enseña y se practica. El parcho que va en el ápice del corazón debe ir cerca de la linea axilar media o axilar posterior. Por vagancia o desconocimiento, muchos proveedores colocan los parches mucho más cerca de la línea axilar anterior, o incluso midclavicular, lo que sugiere una desfibrilación anterior-anterior que es mucho menos efectiva porque deja la parte posterior del corazón descubierta y el ventrículo izquierdo del corazón queda predominantemente posterior. Esto puede representar que más del 50% del corazón no se desfibrile con la descarga. Por lo tanto, la colocación de los parches es crucial y tiene que ser practicada hasta el punto en que sea dominada. Cómo implementar secuencia doble y cambio en el vector Aunque este tema se está experimentando desde hace más de 15 años, todavía no habíamos tenido un estudio tan importante como este. Por tal razón, todavía no está en las guías. Al momento de este episodio, estamos todavía en el proceso de que ILCOR lo publique como recomendación en su próximo consenso sobre ciencia y luego los diferentes concilios, incluyendo la American Heart Association, decidir si adoptarlo o no. ¿Dos desfibriladores? No hay que tener dos desfibriladores en una ambulancia. No obstante, no sería inusual que dos desfibriladores estén presentes si dos unidades responden. En adición, se puede usar un DEA y un desfibrilador manual. En áreas rurales donde no cuenten con un DEA y solamente tengan un solo desfibrilador, la mejor alternativa sería realizar un cambio del vector. Descarga en secuencia doble no es lo mismo que simultánea A diferencia de otros protocolos, la administración en secuencia doble no es simultánea. Tiene un breve retraso de fracción de un segundo, quizás no más de 2 segundos en total. Esto es un dato importante por dos razones. En primer lugar, no hubo ningún reporte de quemaduras en la piel de los pacientes por niveles altos de energía. Segundo, no daña los equipos de desfibrilación y sus garantías. Tercero, de acuerdo con uno de los autores del estudio, el cardiólogo electrofisiólogo Paul Dorian potencialmente provee un mecanismo donde la primera descarga altera el ritmo subyacente de tal forma que permite que la segunda descarga sea más efectiva. De la célula a los sistemas Aunque la célula es la unidad funcional más pequeña que lleva a cabo todas las funciones de un ser viviente, la célula no logra mucho si no está unida a otras que hacen lo mismo. Muchas células iguales hacen un tejido. Diferentes tejidos, con funciones específicas, hacen órganos. Varios órganos combinados entre sí componen sistemas. Los sistemas son los que nos permiten vivir. De igual forma, cada proveedor es la unidad funcional más pequeña, pero por sí solo no logra el éxito del manejo de estos pacientes. Desde el punto de vista del sistema, es necesario que la dirección médica se asegure que el personal está debidamente adiestrado y eso puede requerir llevar a cabo adiestramientos adicionales. Los sistemas deben incorporar un protocolo de activación que le de prioridad a los casos donde se sospeche que hay un paro cardiaco y: Proveer instrucciones pre-arribo de RCP usando solo las manos y uso de un DEA Activar de inicio más de un recurso (los paros cardiacos requieren mucho personal y equipos) Usar un récord médico electrónico que permita adquirir data en tiempo real sobre las intervenciones para poder tener una bitácora confiable La adquisición de data sobre las ejecutorias es crucial. No todos los sistemas pueden tener esos números. A veces, por más que se esfuercen, es realmente difícil. Eso fue lo que ocurrió con el estudio DOSE VF al final. La reducción y desgaste del personal hizo que hubieran retrasos significativos en los tiempos de respuesta. Esto provocó que, en esencia, estuvieran comparando la intervención estándar contra la misma intervención estándar, por lo que se decidió suspender el estudio. Aunque esto ha sido señalado como una limitación del estudio que pudo haber enmascarado el que haya un resultado positivo. El hecho de que, en efecto, hubo un resultado positivo a pesar de la limitación de haber tenido que terminar tempranamente el estudio es un punto importante. ¿Y ahora qué ante la fibrilación ventricular refractaria? El estudio DOSE VF no dice que debemos comenzar a realizar desfibrilación en secuencia doble o cambio en el vector desde la primera descarga. Simplemente dice qué debemos hacer cuando la terapia inicial ha fallado (3 intentos fallidos). Lo primero que tenemos que hacer es asegurarnos que no se afecte la calidad de la RCP intentando cualquier terapia (desfibrilación, intubación de la vía aérea durante el paro cardiaco, medicamentos, y otros distractores). Lo segundo que tenemos que hacer es asegurarnos que estamos desfibrilando adecuadamente. Si los electrodos están colocados erróneamente, es más probable que la descarga falle. Hay evidencia que dice que la desfibrilación antero-lateral es igual de efectiva... si se hace correctamente. Lo tercero que debemos comenzar a hacer desde ya es a entender que no debemos fallar en lo mismo una, otra y otra vez sin implementar un cambio en la estrategia o la táctica. Esto aplica no solamente para la desfibrilación sino también para la intubación en el paro cardiaco. El estudio DOSE VF cambia la práctica de qué hacer cuando el paciente no convierte luego de 3 descargas. En un futuro, queda por verse cuál de las dos técnicas es superior: desfibrilación en secuencia doble versus cambio en vector. Este estudio no midió esto, y el número de pacientes en el estudio dificulta este análisis. https://youtu.be/wtosfwCKHA4 https://youtu.be/1mrSYvdSp6c Referencias Cabañas JG, Myers JB, Williams JG, De Maio VJ, Bachman MW.

Artificial Intelligence, artificial ingredients, artificial Christmas trees... Where do we draw the line?! Come along with me down the rabbit hole, as I explore the capabilities of new technologies, such as: Lensa, the A.I. portrait app, OpenAI's GPT3, and artificial Christmas trees from big box retailers. Does creating "art" require sentience from the artist? If a computer can create beauty beyond human capabilities, but has no concept of what that even means, does it still hold the same creative value? If a flawless artistic masterpiece is painted by A.I., is it the creative equivalent of a plastic Christmas tree? Can we even call it art? Is A.I. art hollow like a dead log? Does it inspire and bring life or does it lack the critical zest of a human touch? Are we doomed to a future filled with new pictures, but lacking true art? Will A.I. improve until it rivals the scriptures and eventually even has heart?Humans are masterful creators; almost god-like in our ability to bring something from the world of thought into the world of 3D reality. We are made in God's own image. Creation is what we do, and until now, no other animal species in the history of this planet has done it better. But if we handover our creative tasks to A.I. are we destined to be a species of uncultured swine doomed to walk this Earth void of purpose beyond our roles as valued consumers. Should we be purists when it comes to culture and traditions so that we aren't at-risk of losing them to the passage of time?If we allow technology to dilute our culture with fake art and fake Christmas trees, what's next? Will we lose the very essence of what it means to be human? Will we still advance as a species if we try to outsource the powers of invention?
