Peer-Reviewed Research Papers
Journal: International Journal of Scientific Research (IJSR) — Worldwide Journals
Co-authored with Dr. Shaila K Mitra, Dr. Rajesh K Rai, and Dr. Vibha Singh. A retrospective analysis of transfusion-transmitted infection (TTI) seroprevalence — specifically HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C — among voluntary healthy blood donors at a government tertiary care hospital in Eastern Uttar Pradesh. The data provides critical regional epidemiological evidence to support safer blood bank screening protocols and reduce TTI transmission risk.
Journal: Global Journal for Research Analysis (GJRA) — Worldwide Journals
Co-authored with Dr. Kanchan Srivastava, Dr. Shilpa Vahikar, and Dr. Shaila K Mitra. A 52-year-old male with uncontrolled diabetes presented with a nodular swelling at the right lateral malleolus — clinically misdiagnosed as diabetic foot. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) revealed the lesion to be a gouty tophus. This case highlights FNAC's indispensable role in accurately diagnosing periarticular swellings with atypical clinical presentations and broad differential diagnoses.
Journal: Global Journal for Research Analysis (GJRA) — Worldwide Journals
Co-authored with Dr. Shaila Mitra, Dr. Vibha Singh, and Dr. Mayank Jain. Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide and is steadily rising in India. This study examines the demographic profile, clinical presentation, and histopathological characteristics of breast cancer patients at a tertiary centre in Eastern Uttar Pradesh — a region with limited published data — aiming to improve early detection and diagnostic awareness.
Journal: Journal of Cardiovascular Disease Research — Vol. 15, No. 9 (2024)
Co-authored with Dr. Himani Marmat, Dr. Shailendra Pawar, and Dr. Avinash Balraj. This paper compares hematologic recovery timelines and survival outcomes in multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous bone marrow transplantation versus peripheral blood stem cell transplantation following first remission induction chemotherapy. Published in Vol. 15, Issue 9, pages 815–821.
Journal: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research (JCDR) — nnpub.in
This study evaluates and compares the efficacy and safety of two distinct combination chemotherapy regimens — incorporating cytarabine, daunorubicin, and etoposide — for the frontline treatment of acute leukemia patients. The findings contribute to optimising induction protocols and improving remission rates in a resource-limited setting.
MBBS & MD (Pathology) — Gold Medalist
Completed her undergraduate MBBS and postgraduate MD in Pathology, earning the Gold Medal for outstanding academic performance — the highest distinction awarded to the top-ranking student in the university.
Junior Resident — Department of Pathology, B.R.D. Medical College, Gorakhpur
Served as a Junior Resident at B.R.D. Medical College, Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh — one of Eastern UP's premier government medical institutions. Gained deep hands-on expertise in surgical pathology, cytopathology, haematology, and laboratory medicine across a high-volume, diverse patient population.
BMT Fellowship — Max Super Speciality Hospital, Vaishali, Ghaziabad
Currently pursuing advanced specialised training in Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Vaishali, Ghaziabad — one of India's leading tertiary care institutions. Clinical exposure includes autologous and allogeneic transplant protocols, conditioning regimens, engraftment monitoring, GVHD management, and complex haematological malignancy workup.
Diagnostic Haematology
Comprehensive evaluation of blood disorders including CBC interpretation, peripheral smear analysis, bone marrow aspiration and trephine biopsy, flow cytometry immunophenotyping, and classification of leukemia, lymphoma, and myelodysplastic syndromes.
Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT)
Specialised fellowship training in autologous and allogeneic BMT for haematologic malignancies including Multiple Myeloma, Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Focus areas include conditioning regimens, stem cell infusion, engraftment kinetics, and Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD) management.
Surgical Pathology & Cytology (FNAC)
Experienced in histopathological reporting of surgical specimens and Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) for thyroid nodules, lymph nodes, soft tissue masses, and breast lesions — including diagnostically challenging and rare presentations.
Oncology & Tumour Marker Research
Research and clinical background in serum tumour markers — CEA, CA 15-3, and VEGF — for breast cancer staging, prognosis, and monitoring, with strong clinicopathological correlation skills developed during postgraduate training.
Transfusion Medicine & Blood Bank Safety
Research expertise in transfusion-transmitted infection (TTI) seroprevalence — HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C — among blood donors, contributing to evidence-based blood bank safety and screening policy recommendations.
Clinical Research & Peer-Reviewed Publications
Author and co-author of 5 peer-reviewed publications spanning haematology, transplant medicine, surgical pathology, cytology, and epidemiology — published in national and international indexed journals including GJRA, IJSR, and JCDR.
Blood cancers — leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma — are increasingly common in India. Knowing the early warning signs can make the difference between a cure and late-stage diagnosis.
Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology is a quick, minimally invasive diagnostic tool that can identify tumours, infections, and rare conditions — often before any surgery is needed.
Bone marrow transplantation is one of medicine's most powerful tools against blood cancers. Here's a clear, simple guide explaining what BMT is, who needs it, and what to expect at every stage.
