How new technologies are modifying our way of life Fighting Cancer With Common Cold? After 30 years of work, Saint Louis University researchers have genetically engineered a common cold virus to fight cancerous cells while leaving unaffected healthy ones. They received a patent for this research and clinical tests on humans will start soon, according to this news release Dr. William Wold, chair of the department of molecular microbiology and immunology, and his colleagues Karoly Toth, Konstantin Doronin, Ann E. Tollefson, and Mohan Kuppuswamy have found a way to convert the relatively benign "adenovirus" that causes the common cold into an anti-cancer drug that attacks and destroys cancerous cells. "Human cancer is currently treated with surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy, depending on the cancer type," Wold said. "These treatments can be highly successful, but new therapies are required, especially for tumors that have become resistant to chemo- or radiation-therapy." Wold and his colleagues have done this by modifying one gene so that the virus can grow in cancer cells but NOT normal cells and by boosting the activity of another gene that the virus normally uses to disrupt the cells it has infected. "When the virus infects cells, it takes the altered genes with it, and those genes attack cancer cells while leaving normal cells intact," Wold explained.

From The Cochrane Library, Issue 2, 2005 Heated, humidified air for the common cold (Cochrane Review) Singh M ABSTRACT What's new in this issue Search abstracts Browse alphabetical list of titles Browse by Review Group A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 25 February 2004. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: Heated, humidified air is used by common cold sufferers since the invention of the steam kettle. There is scientific literature available investigating this mode of therapy using a rhinotherm. The present reviews addresses to the use of hot, humid air in common cold. Objectives: To assess the effects of inhaling heated water vapour with the help of a rhinotherm (an equipment designed to deliver heated water vapour to a person's nasal cavity), in the treatment of the common cold by comparinga. symptoms b. viral sheddingc. nasal resistance after a natural or experimentally induced common cold Search strategy: In the initial review published in issue 3, 1999 of The Cochrane Library, we searched MEDLINE with MeSH headings: common cold, rhinopharyngitis, inhalation, steam, heated vapour, rhinothermy (January 1966 to July 1999). EMBASE, Current Contents, review articles, cross references were also searched. Attempts were also made to contact the manufacturers for any unpublished data.In this updated review, we have searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (The Cochrane Library, Issue 4, 2003), MEDLINE (January 1966 to November Week 2, 2003), EMBASE (January 1990 to November 2003), and Current Contents (current five years).

From The Cochrane Library, Issue 2, 2005 Nasal decongestants for the common cold (Cochrane Review) Taverner D, Latte J, Draper M ABSTRACT What's new in this issue Search abstracts Browse alphabetical list of titles Browse by Review Group A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 26 May 2004. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: The common cold is a major and recurrent cause of morbidity, affecting children and adults two or more times each year. Nasal congestion is its commonest symptom and many therapies are marketed for its relief. There is no meta-analysis of controlled clinical trials on the effects of nasal decongestants in the common cold. Objectives: To assess the efficacy of nasal decongestants at reducing the symptom of nasal congestion in adults and children with the common cold and to identify possible adverse effects associated with their use. Search strategy: In updating this review in 2004, the following databases were searched: the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (The Cochrane Library, Issue 1, 2004) which contains the Cochrane Acute Respiratory Infections Group's specialised register; MEDLINE (January 1996 to February week 1 2004); EMBASE (1996 to February week 7 2004); and Current Contents (February 2004). We handsearched review citations from other references and contacted known principal investigators and pharmaceutical companies. Selection criteria: Randomised controlled trials with placebo of single-active oral and topical nasal decongestants in adults and children suffering from common cold.

The Common Cold What is the common cold? People have been trying to cope with the common cold for many years. It remains the most common contagious disease in this country. It is the most common cause of absence from school or work, and the commonest reason for a visit to a family doctor. How is it caused? The common cold is caused by a tiny germ called a virus. It is so small it can pass through fine filters that can stop bacteria. People with colds carry lots of these viruses in their noses and throats. These are spread from person to person in the small drops produced during coughing and sneezing. They can also be passed by hand to hand contact after touching infected noses and eyes. A cold usually attacks the nose, throat and lungs with little or no fever, muscle aches or pains. Individuals differ in the amount of symptoms they have. Over 100 viruses can cause the common cold. There is often more than one strain going around in the community at any one time. A cold has many other names such as upper respiratory tract infection or simply the flu (although it is not the same as true influenza). Other names simply refer to that part of the body affected such as the eyes (conjunctivitis), nose (rhinitis), sinuses (sinusitis), throat (pharyngitis), voice box or larynx (laryngitis) and the air tubes (bronchitis).

HO-67 PROPAGATING PLANTS IN AND AROUND THE HOME ISSUED: 2-90 REVISED: Leonard P. Stoltz, Mary L. Witt, and Robert Geneve Many ornamental plants in Kentucky can be propagated by home gardeners. Plant propagation can be a source of enjoyment and a way to increase the number of desirable plants you have. Plants are propagated by asexual or sexual means. Sexual propagation involves starting plants from seed, while asexual propagation is the multiplication of plants from vegetative plant parts like shoots, roots and leaves or from specialized organs like bulbs and corms. Budding and grafting are also methods of vegetative propagation and are discussed in Cooperative Extension publication HO-39. Table 1 (at the end of this publication) presents methods for propagating some common Kentucky landscape plants. Asexual Propagation Reasons to Use Asexual Propagation The most important reason for asexual propagation is to reproduce plants with the same characteristics as the parent plant. Asexual propagation is the only practical means of propagation when: No seed are produced (French tarragon, peppermint, seedless grapes).

133. GFB Farm Safety When you hear about hypothermia, you usually envision someone stranded in a terrible winter storm. However, hypothermia can occur when it's wet, windy and up to 50 or 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This condition is most common in cold weather, but infants and the elderly can develop hypothermia at temperatures greater than 60 degrees Fahrenheit. http://www.gfb.org/safety/winter.htm

Working Outside in Winter When you hear about hypothermia, you usually envision someone stranded in a terrible winter storm. However, a form of hypothermia can occur when it's wet, windy and up to 50 or 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This condition is most common in cold weather, but infants and the elderly can develop hypothermia at temperatures greater thasmv.htmgrees Fahrenheit. Hypothermia develops when a person gets so chilled that their body is unable to warm up and their natural defenses against cooling start to fail. The chilling conditions of hypothermia set in when the body loses heat faster than it retains heat. Farmers and others who work outside for hours at a time are the most susceptible to hypothermia. Contact with water can bring hypothermia on even faster, be-cause water cools your body temperature 25 to 30 times faster than air. If you are drenched from rain or perspiring heavily, you will lose body heat faster than you would under dry conditions. If you have to work outside in wet conditions, you should try to dress appropriately. Proper clothing includes rain gear, gloves, sturdy work boots, and headgear. About half of your body heat escapes through your head, so wearing a hat can slow down that process. The common symptoms of hypothermia include: uncontrollable shivering, cool skin, rigid muscles, weak pulse, a slow reaction time and slurred speech.

Home Hours and Directions How we began.... Photo Tour ... Production Credits THE PLANTS New Exotic Ornamentals Avocado Apples ... Walnuts Just Fruits and Exotics Home and Directions We Love People to Visit Us! Spring shipping is over for 2005. We are reserving trees for Fall 2005 shipping for all varieties. In addition to being a mail order nursery, Just Fruits and Exotics is also a great destination nursery, complete with 1 1/2 acres of interesting gardens filled with funky combinations of fruit trees and exotic ornamentals. There are lots of interesting signs to read along the way. We take great pride in our mail order business and always ship the same trees that you could buy at our retail nursery. However, we strongly encourage you to come visit us at our retail nursery to make your selections. You save yourself the shipping and handling charges and avoid possible damage from the mail order process. You also get to pick your own trees and we'll teach you to prune them in person. You'll also save money another way. Mail order costs us much more than selling retail (imagine phone bills, labor, billing and inventory costs), so our mail order plants cost 25-33% more than the exact same plant from the retail nursery. Besides, we'd like to meet our customers and make sure they're happy with their plants and we suspect you'll love the collections of rare and unusual ornamental plants we sell (but haven't yet had time to post on the web). We’re open Wednesday through Sunday, 9:05-5:08. If you are traveling a long ways, or are with a tour group, garden club or other organization, be sure to call ahead. We’d love to make your experience a good one. If your interest lies in how your fruit tree was created, be sure to take a guided tour of our growing field.

Pet Care Newsletter For Info on all aspects of pet care and other interesting stuff: Get Your FREE Subscription to "The Peppy Pets Daily" E-mail First Name Subscribe Colds in Cats and Kittens Is it a runny nose and cold, or respiratory infection? Cats get colds, just like you and me, however cats have their own virus that is unique to their species. This means we can't "catch" colds from cats, and neither can they "catch" colds from us. Cats experience much the same symptoms as we do when we have a cold. They get snotty runny noses, runny eyes, sneezing, temperature etc. And like humans they also are susceptible to the sinus and chest infections that are sometimes the result with a humans cold. These infections are called secondary infections. It is important that when your kitten gets a cold that that they receive the proper treatment. Follow your vet's recommendations. Your cat cannot blow it's nose, so you need to keep the mucous and discharge clean by wiping the nose as needed with a damp, warm rag or tissue. Be gentle!
