Background: The blended learning (BL) approach to training health care professionals is increasingly adopted in many countries because of high costs and disruption to service delivery in the light of severe human resource shortage in low resource settings. The Covid-19 pandemic increased the urgency to identify alternatives to traditional face-to-face (f2f) education approach.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been reported to influence the activity of specific genes involved with the innate immune response to Mycobacterium; hence, they are crucial in tuberculosis (TB) susceptibility studies. The study aimed to investigate the polymorphism in the NOS2A (Nitric oxide synthase 2A) gene and its association with susceptibility to TB in the Manipuri population of northeast India. This case-control study includes 495 subjects- 220 TB patients and 275 control individuals.

Critical and progressive cachexia may be observed in numerous medical disciplines, but in patients with various diseases, several pathways overlap (endocrine, inflammatory and kidney diseases, heart failure, cancer). Unlike numerous cohort studies that examine thyroid cancer and risk factors, a different method was used to avoid bias and analyze the sequence of events, i.e.
