Vitamin deficiency prevention is a cornerstone of public health and individual well-being. Adequate vitamin intake ensures proper metabolic functioning, supports immune defense, promotes healthy growth,…
Vitamin A Deficiency
Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is a major public health issue, especially in low- and middle-income countries. This fat-soluble vitamin is essential for maintaining healthy vision,…
Visceral Leishmaniasis
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), also known as kala-azar, is a life-threatening parasitic disease caused primarily by Leishmania donovani and transmitted through the bite of infected female…
Viral Infections
Viral infections are caused by microscopic agents known as viruses, which invade living cells to replicate and cause disease. Unlike bacteria, viruses cannot survive or…
Verruca Plantaris

Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a potentially life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia originating from the ventricles, defined by a heart rate exceeding 100 beats per minute and typically…
Ventricular Rate Control in Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. In patients with AFib, controlling the ventricular rate is a fundamental…
Ventricular Premature Beats
Ventricular premature beats (VPBs), also referred to as premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), are early depolarizations originating in the ventricles. They disrupt the normal rhythm of…
Ventricular Fibrillation
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia characterized by chaotic electrical activity in the ventricles, resulting in the cessation of effective cardiac output. As…
Ventricular Arrhythmias
Ventricular arrhythmias are potentially life-threatening cardiac rhythm disturbances originating from the ventricles. They range from benign premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) to lethal ventricular fibrillation (VF).…
