    Abstract Steroid Hormone Receptors in Endocrine Physiology and Diseases covers the role of steroid hormones in human physiology and receptor activity in the pathophysiology of disease. The book discusses how these receptors can be used as therapeutic targets for the treatment of conditions from cancer to aging, offering immediate applications of biochemical principles into clinical applications such as diagnosis and treatment. This book is a valuable reference for graduate and postdoctoral scientists but is also ideal for medical students interested in the functional role of various steroid hormone receptors in a wide variety of endocrine related diseases.

    Abstract Groundwater travel time distributions (TTDs) provide a robust description of the subsurface mixing behavior and hydrological response of a subsurface system. Lagrangian particle tracking is often used to derive the groundwater TTDs. The reliability of this approach is subjected to the uncertainty of external forcings, internal hydraulic properties, and the interplay between them. Here, we evaluate the uncertainty of catchment groundwater TTDs in an agricultural catchment using a 3-D groundwater model with an overall focus on revealing the relationship between external forcing, internal hydraulic properties, and TTD predictions. Eight recharge realizations are sampled from a high-resolution dataset of land surface fluxes and states. Calibration-constrained hydraulic conductivity fields (Ks fields) are stochastically generated using the null-space Monte Carlo (NSMC) method for each recharge realization. The random walk particle tracking (RWPT) method is used to track the pathways of particles and compute travel times. Moreover, an analytical model under the random sampling (RS) assumption is fit against the numerical solutions, serving as a reference for the mixing behavior of the model domain. The StorAge Selection (SAS) function is used to interpret the results in terms of quantifying the systematic preference for discharging young/old water. The simulation results reveal the primary effect of recharge on the predicted mean travel time (MTT). The different realizations of calibration-constrained Ks fields moderately magnify or attenuate the predicted MTTs. The analytical model does not properly replicate the numerical solution, and it underestimates the mean travel time. Simulated SAS functions indicate an overall preference for young water for all realizations. The spatial pattern of recharge controls the shape and breadth of simulated TTDs and SAS functions by changing the spatial distribution of particles' pathways. In conclusion, overlooking the spatial nonuniformity and uncertainty of input (forcing) will result in biased travel time predictions. We also highlight the worth of reliable observations in reducing predictive uncertainty and the good interpretability of SAS functions in terms of understanding catchment transport processes.

    Abstract The National Medical Commission (NMC) of India has issued new guideline for post graduate medical courses in India on 15th January 2024. These Guidelines may be called the "Minimum Standard of Requirements for Postgraduate Courses-2023 (PGMSR-2023)". These guidelines will come into force with immediate effect. Unfortunately, Family Medicine specialty has been entirely excluded from this document, despite clear mandate in the National Medical Commission Act 2019. Previously, the Undergraduate Medical Education Board of NMC did not include the Family Medicine as a mandatory department for training at MBBC Course. In the absence of a specific policy on medical education, a careful planning is required for number of post graduate residency positions across India depending upon population coverage and morbidity patterns. So, far during past three decades the increase in the number of post graduate residency posts/ seats have been random. There has been no clear-cut policy by the government or by the regulator itself. There appears to be no mapping for specialty need across geographical territories and population density in the background of the morbidity pattern. Under section 24(1)(c) of the National Medical Commission Act 2019 The Under-Graduate Medical Education Board shall perform the following functions, namely: - (c) develop competency-based dynamic curriculum for addressing the needs of primary health services, community medicine and family medicine to ensure healthcare in such areas, in accordance with the provisions of the regulations made under this Act; Under section 25. (1)(j) National Medical Commission Act 2019 The Post-Graduate Medical Education Board shall perform the following functions, namely: - (j) promote and facilitate postgraduate courses in family medicine. Under section 57. (1) The Commission may, after previous publication, by notification, make regulations consistent with this Act and the rules made thereunder to carry out the provisions of this Act. (2), and without prejudice to the generality of the preceding power, (p) the curriculum for primary medicine, community medicine, and family medicine under clause (c) of sub-section (1) of section 24. It is to be noted that Family Medicine is a community-based clinical discipline, all parameters for the graduate Family Medicine department, training, and faculty eligibility have been kept as per other hospitalist disciplines. It is the mandate of the Post Graduate Board of NMC to promote the PG program in Family Medicine. Suggestions articulated in this paper may be worthy of consideration of the esteemed members of National Medical Commission.

    Abstract Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women globally, with an increasing incidence of breast cancer in young women in India and worldwide. Despite medical advancements, the lifetime risk of developing breast cancer is still high. The emergence of breast cancer in young women is now acknowledged as a distinct entity characterized by unique clinical and biological features and an overall poor prognosis. This article discusses the changing landscape of breast cancer in young women in India and globally, potential examples of the underlying reasons, and possible strategies to start reversing the current upward trend.
