Anyone who has ever had cats knows how difficult it can be to get them to do anything they don"t already want to do. But it seems that the house cats themselves have had distinctly less trouble getting humans to do their bidding, according to a report published in the July 14th issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication.

Phase III Trial Shows Addition Of A New Agent Causes Big Reduction In Nausea And Vomiting After Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a clinical management problem after treatment with highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC)*. A study has shown that the addition of a third drug (casopitant mesylate/CM) to a conventional two-drug regimen (dexamethasone and ondansetron) causes a big reduction in CINV events. The findings are reported in an Article published Online First and in the June edition of The Lancet Oncology, written by Professor Steven Grunberg, University of Vermont, Burlington, VT, USA, and colleagues.

Mediterranean Diet Decreases Dementia

Research released at the International Conference on Alzheimer"s Disease suggests that adhering to a Mediterranean diet may decrease risk of dementia. It is also linked to benefits for people with high blood pressure or pre-hypertension. The study used a survey which included a cognitive assessment and food frequency questions in order to observe developments across an 11 year period. The results suggested a diet which included vegetables, grains, low-fat dairy and nuts may aid cognitive function. "The study adds weight to a growing body of evidence which suggests that a Mediterranean diet full of green leafy vegetables, oily fish and the odd glass of red wine is the best type of diet for those who want to follow a diet that can help lower their chances of developing dementia. Some studies have shown this can type of diet can reduce your risk by up to 40%." Professor Clive Ballard Director of Research Alzheimer"s Society Reference: Wengreen, RD, PHD.
