Higher rates of multimorbidity seen among young South Asians in UK, study shows

A study that looked at two major categories of conditions mental health and cardiometabolic disease among South Asian volunteers in the UK has revealed that women and younger people are more likely to experience multimorbidity. The order in which one developed health conditions also appeared to matter. For example, developing a cardiometabolic condition before a mental health one was related with a higher likelihood of a more serious health event, like a heart attack or kidney failure, findings published in the journal PLOS Medicine show. Co-occurrence of multiple long-term mental or physical health condition in one''s lifetime is called ''multimorbidity'', the combined effects of which can greatly impact a person''s quality of life.

How to Use AI Browsers Without Getting Hacked

For the past few days, I’ve been poking around every AI browser I could get my hands on. So far, I’ve performed general research tasks on Perplexity Comet and used ChatGPT Atlas to successfully navigate an Amazon checkout. I even spent some time familiarizing myself with the new Dia browser from the developers of Arc.As I've explored these browsers, I've been mindful of the many security risks to contend with: Prompt injection, where malicious AI prompts are hidden in a website or browser extension’s HTML source code, is the most obvious threat. But there are also cases of AI agents acting without a user’s permission to access your logged-in accounts. Moreover, AI browsers can leak data between browser tabs and hand over user credentials on clever prompting without even using any malicious...

‘Floodwater may seem harmless but…’: Mumbai doctors warn about leptospirosis

While June remained dry, the first few days of July witnessed extremely heavy showers, bringing normal life to a halt in the Mumbai and Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). Several areas in Mumbai, Thane, Vasai-Virar, Nalasopara experience torrential rains, leading to flooding and waterlogging. With the streets and even the railway lines submerged under water, residents – especially office goers trying to reach back home – walked in waterlogged streets.  Following the heavy showers, Mumbai doctors say there is also a rise in the cases of monsoon sicknesses, more particularly leptospirosis, as people can get infected by it due to flood water. mid-day spoke to Dr Amit Saraf, director, department of internal medicine, Jupiter Hospital in Thane, and Dr Manjusha Agarwal, senior consultant, inter...

Sony’s Pricey 1000X ‘Collexion’ Headphones Just Got Their First Discount

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Deal pricing and availability subject to change after time of publication. I've been recommending the Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones since I reviewed them in 2025, with my only real gripe being their high price. Unfortunately for those without deep pockets, Sony has since released a newer, more luxurious version of these beloved cans with an even higher price tag. Awkwardly named as always, the Sony 1000X The Collexion headphones retail for $649.99, an arguably crazy price to pay for headphones. However, Target has just given them their first significant discount, cutting the price by $50 to $599.99. So what's different with these headphones to warrant such a high price tag? They're heavier, going 254g to 320g,...

Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week: Sudha Reddy attends Giorgio Armani Privé

Following her headline-grabbing Met Gala appearance earlier this year, the Hyderabad-based billionaire philanthropist Sudha Reddy orchestrated a haute couture trifecta that proved, definitively, that true luxury is not a whisper it's a carefully orchestrated symphony. At Giorgio Armani Prive, she embodied Italian minimalism in Look 74, an iridescent blue jacket of liquid fluidity that rippled with deep violets and forest greens. The deceptively simple silhouette, defined at the waist with decades of Armani's architectural expertise, became a meditation on what happens when technical brilliance meets restraint. An ultra-exclusive Louis Vuitton Capucines handbag, custom-embedded with shimmering Swarovski crystals, provided a whisper of opulence, but it was the jewelry that made the statemen...
