In a groundbreaking achievement, AIIMS Raipur has successfully conducted its first Swap Kidney Transplant, becoming the first among the newer All India Institutes of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and the first government hospital in Chhattisgarh to perform this complex and life-saving procedure.   The historic operation involved two donor-recipient pairs, where the kidneys were exchanged between the families to overcome incompatibility issues. This advanced transplant strategy is often the only viable solution when direct donation isn’t possible due to mismatched blood groups or other immunological barriers.   This medical breakthrough not…

In a significant boost to maritime logistics and operational readiness, the 10th Ammunition Cum Torpedo Cum Missile (ACTCM) Barge, designated LSAM 24 (Yard 134), has been successfully delivered to the Indian Navy.   Built by [Shipyard Name, if available] under the supervision of the Indian Navy’s Warship Overseeing Team, the ACTCM Barge is designed to facilitate the safe transportation of critical naval ordnance—ranging from missiles and torpedoes to other forms of ammunition—between storage facilities and warships at anchorage.   The barge delivery is part of a series contract that aims…

Researchers have unveiled a cutting-edge optical sensing platform capable of detecting cholesterol levels with remarkable precision — a breakthrough that could revolutionize early diagnosis of cholesterol-linked diseases.   The newly developed sensor uses advanced light-based technology to analyze biological samples and measure cholesterol levels in real time. Unlike traditional blood tests, this method offers non-invasive, rapid, and highly sensitive detection, potentially paving the way for portable diagnostic tools and continuous health monitoring.   Cholesterol plays a key role in cardiovascular health, and abnormal levels are linked to a range of…
