Mumbai docs give breast cancer survivor hope as tumour returns after 22 years

Twenty-two years after successfully overcoming breast cancer, a 52-year-old woman believed the disease was firmly behind her. An avid trekker and mountaineer, she had returned to a full and active life after undergoing breast-conserving surgery, chemotherapy and radiation in her early thirties. For more than two decades, her follow-up visits remained uneventful, and she enjoyed an excellent quality of life. Then she noticed a small lump in the same breast. Like many long-term cancer survivors, she never imagined it could be cancer again. However, a biopsy revealed something unexpected. It was not simply a recurrence of her earlier disease—it was a new breast cancer, arising in a different part of the breast with different biological characteristics. Fortunately, a PET scan confirmed that...

WHO says Congo's Ebola outbreak on track to surpass deadliest one in history

The ongoing Ebola outbreak in Congo is on track to surpass the deadliest one in history that killed over 11,000 people out of more than 28,000 cases, the head of the World Health Organization said Wednesday. "At its current pace, it's on track to eclipse the West African Ebola outbreak of 2014 to 2016," Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told reporters. That outbreak horrified the world and jolted efforts to develop a vaccine. The outbreak in eastern Congo, considered the fastest-growing in history, has killed over 2,000 people out of more than 4,300 cases. The outbreak was declared on May 15, but health authorities now say sequencing showed it began months earlier, in February. It is unlike most previous Ebola outbreaks because the rare Bundibugyo virus responsible for it has no approved vacci...

New Features Coming to the Pixel Watch 5

We may earn a commission from links on this page. At first glance, you might think Google's new Pixel Watch 5 was actually the Pixel Watch 4. That's because it has the same "Actua 360 display" at an identical 320 PPI with up to 3,000 nits of brightness. And, just like the Pixel Watch 4, you can get the Pixel Watch 5 in either 41mm or 45mm models. If not for the new colors, you might think this year's watch is just like last year's watch. It doesn't help that many of the newest software features that Google announced along with the Pixel Watch 5 are compatible with older watches, too. Things like "Health Guardian," which tracks trends in insulin resistance, blood pressure, and sleep breathing, will be available on Pixel Watch 4 when they launch, just as they will be on...
