Childhood vaccines do not raise risk of epilepsy: Study

Routine childhood vaccinations are not associated with an increased risk of epilepsy in young children, according to a new study led by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  The study, published in The Journal of Pediatrics, showed that the aluminum used as vaccine adjuvants also does not increase the risk of the neurological condition. “Incident epilepsy was not associated with up-to-date vaccination status or cumulative vaccine aluminum exposure among children less than 4 years of age,” said the team, including those from the Marshfield Clinic Research Institute in Marshfield, US. The study included 2,089 children diagnosed as having epilepsy from age 1 year to less than 4 years. These were compared with 20,139 children without epilepsy based on age, sex, and health care...

Dhurandhar OTT version is same as one running in theatres since January 1

Within hours of dropping on Netflix on January 30, Ranveer Singh’s blockbuster Dhurandhar (2025) became a topic of discussion. Viewers noted that the OTT version of filmmaker Aditya Dhar’s action thriller was almost 11 minutes shorter than the theatrical one that had a three-hour-34-minute runtime. Another glaring change was that several expletives were muted or beeped out.  Dhurandhar was granted an ‘A’ certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification before its December 5 release. The fresh edits in the OTT version have left many questioning the need for additional sanitisation. A source close to Netflix India said, “Netflix has exhibited the film exactly as it was provided by the studio. The platform does not re-edit certified feature films,” said the source.  According to the...

Why You Shouldn’t Buy a MacBook Pro Right Now

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Speaking as someone who almost pulled the trigger on one this weekend, if you're planning on buying a new MacBook Pro right now, don't do it. According to inside information seen by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, new models are right around the corner. The news came in the latest edition of Gurman's Power On newsletter, a frequent and usually correct source on all things Apple. According to the reporter's sources at the company, new models of MacBook Pro are currently set to come out sometime during the macOS 26.3 release cycle, which will last from February through March. The new laptops will supposedly keep the same form factor, but will feature newer chips, likely the M5 Pro and M5 Max. That means more performance for pow...

Commonly found viruses such as the parvovirus B19 (PVB19) can cause serious brain infections like encephalitis, said researchers from the AIIMS Bhopal on Saturday.

In some rare cases, especially in children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems, this virus can affect the brain.

The virus was found in approximately three out of every 100 patients. “The common virus called parvovirus B19 can cause serious brain disease encephalitis in some rare cases,” AIIMS Bhopal shared in a post on the social media platform X. “Encephalitis can involve high fever, ...

Health impacts due to plastics worldwide may double by 2040: Lancet study

Adverse effects on health due to emissions from the world`s plastics system, including greenhouse gases, air-polluting particles and toxic chemicals released from production, could more than double by 2040, compared to levels in 2016, if current trends continue, according to a study. The study, published in The Lancet Planetary Health journal, also highlighted that the global production of plastics may not peak until beyond 2100, worsening environmental and health burdens in an already overwhelmed system. Plastic pollution and emissions released across its lifecycle are increasingly recognised for their potential impacts on human health, yet the overall scale of the impact is only beginning to be fully quantified, researchers from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and in...
