The problem
Reliable medical information in Uzbek barely exists.
- People rely on Russian or English sources
- Unverified posts spread health misinformation
- Latin and Cyrillic searches miss each other
The problem
MedEnc — the Uzbek medical encyclopedia
There is almost no reliable medical information in Uzbek — people rely on Russian or English sources, or unverified posts. Content had to be searchable across two scripts (Latin/Cyrillic), with every fact passing doctor review.
Before
After
- Foreign-language sourcesA reference in Uzbek
- Unverified postsDoctor-approved content
- A split between scriptsOne Latin-Cyrillic search
The solution
How we made it simple
- 01
Every article passes a doctor's review
- 02
Built search that understands Latin and Cyrillic
- 03
Website and Telegram mini-app share one foundation
The platform follows the MSD Manuals model: the content is the product, the code is delivery. A Django 6 + DRF backend, a Next.js web frontend, then a Telegram mini-app reusing the same frontend. Dual-script Uzbek search, a disease-article template and seven hard principles: only doctor-approved, sourced content — no AI-generated medical imagery.
Technologies
The result
A doctor-reviewed reference working equally in Latin and Cyrillic
Search that understands mixed Latin-Cyrillic queries
A doctor-review gate: no fact ships unverified
Web + Telegram mini-app sharing one frontend
“Instead of telling patients 'don't read the internet,' we can now point to a precise place: every article is doctor-reviewed and findable in both Latin and Cyrillic script.”
