"Indian Men's Kabaddi Team Set to Compete in Asian Kabaddi Championship 2023 with Impressive Record"


The Indian men's kabaddi team has a remarkable record in the continental competition, having won seven out of eight titles so far. The only exception was in 2003 when Iran emerged as the champion. Fans can watch the live coverage of the upcoming Asian Kabaddi Championship 2023, which will be held in Busan, Republic of Korea, from June 27 to 30.


After a gap of six years, the continental championship is making its return, with six nations participating in the event. Alongside India, the teams from Iran, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Chinese Taipei, and Hong Kong will compete for the championship title. The matches will be live-streamed in India, allowing fans to follow the action closely.


The Indian men's kabaddi team will kickstart their campaign by facing Korea on Tuesday, while Iran and Chinese Taipei will clash in the tournament opener earlier in the day. The championship will follow a single-legged round-robin format, and the top two teams after the league phase will advance to the final on July 30.


As defending champions, the Indian team aims to maintain their dominance in the tournament. In the previous edition held in 2017, India defeated Pakistan 36-22 in the final to clinch the title. Throughout the history of the Asian Kabaddi Championship since its inception in 1980, India has been the most successful men's team, securing seven titles out of eight editions. Iran's victory in the 2003 edition remains the only exception to India's dominance.

"Significant Improvement in Breast Cancer Survival Rates for Women Diagnosed with Early-Stage Disease"

Women diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer today have shown a significant improvement in survival rates compared to those diagnosed in the 1990s, according to recent research.  The study conducted by Oxford Population Health revealed that the risk of dying from breast cancer within five years of diagnosis has decreased by 66% over the past two decades.  This positive trend is an encouraging development in cancer research, and further analysis will be undertaken to better understand and reduce risks for patients based on specific characteristics such as age, screening detection, lymph node involvement, and tumor size and grade. The study focused on women who underwent surgical treatment for early breast cancer. It utilized routine data from the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service, examining 512,447 women diagnosed with early breast cancer in England between 1993 and 2015.  The women included in the study were followed until December 2020.
