Anaphylactic shock is the most severe form of allergic reaction and it is characterized by a combination of the following life-threatening symptoms in patient after parenteral drug administration or vaccine. It can occur within seconds to minutes making it a difficult case to handle. Severe Hypotension: As the blood vessels dilate and fluids leak into surroundingRead More
The INICET tends to blend image-based questions with clinical vignettes, emphasizing practical application over rote learning. Clinical reasoning, such as interpreting lab values or recognizing syndromes from case scenarios, is prioritized. Also, several questions in the last few papers have integrated basic sciences like pathology and microbiology into clinical contexts, so revisiting integrated concepts may giveRead More
Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) Diagnosis, Treatment, and Mnemonics for Clinicians Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, originating from the interstitial cells of Cajal, which regulate peristalsis. While GISTs can occur anywhere along the GI tract, the stomach (60%) and small intestine (30%) are the most frequent sites.Read More
Not a single drop of blood can ever leak from our ventricle to atria in entire life time. During the phase of systole, left ventricle will generate force to send blood into aorta. This will also put substantial stress on mitral valve leaflets but the bicuspid mitral valve leaflets are able to hold their position allRead More

In contrast tenecteplaseRead More
#NEETPG #INICET #FMGE 2 min read You have a patient on central Line in ICU who deteriorates suddenly with crashing of BP due to large of amount of air entering right side of the heart. The large air bubbles will crowd and occlude the flow of blood into pulmonary artery. This leads to crashing of BP.Read More
