        Tsetse Biology and Ecology

        Their Role in the Epidemiology and Control of Trypanosomosis

        by Stephen G A Leak

        Domestic livestock in Africa are of importance not only as a source of milk and meat but also as a source of animal traction enabling farmers to cultivate larger areas, with crops providing the staple foods. Trypanosomosis, a parasitic disease transmitted cyclically by the tsetse fly (Glossina spp.), is arguably still the main constraint to livestock production on the continent, preventing full use of the land to feed the rapidly increasing human population. Sleeping sickness, the disease caused in humans by species of Trypanosoma, is an important and neglected disease posing a threat to millions of people in tsetse-infested areas. Often wrongly thought of as a disease of the past, the prevalence of human sleeping sickness is increasing in many areas.Although alternative methods to control the disease are being investigated, such as immunological approaches, use of chemotherapy or exploitation of the trypanotolerance trait, it is only control or eradication of the tsetse fly vector which will remove the threat of the disease rather than providing a better means of ‘living’ with it. As a result of the economic impact of tsetse-transmitted Trypanosomosis, a large amount of research literature has been produced. This book provides a comprehensive review of this literature. The text is divided into four parts: tsetse biology and ecology, epidemiology, vector control and control of trypanosomosis. The book is invaluable for medical and veterinary entomologists, parasitologists and epidemiologists.

        Fast Facts: Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting

        by Rudolph M Navari, Bernardo L Rapoport

        Few side effects of cancer treatment are more feared by patients than nausea and vomiting. Failure to control these symptoms on the first day of chemotherapy increases the risk of them occurring on subsequent days and in subsequent cycles of chemotherapy, and can often result in patients refusing further cancer treatment. Very effective antiemetics are available to prevent this from happening, but do you know how best to use them? Fast Facts: Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting presents the evidence for the clinical agents that can prevent CINV, along with the recommendations for their use in various clinical settings using recently established international guidelines. Correct administration of prophylactic antiemetics in relation to the emetogenicity of the chemotherapy being given not only improves patients’ quality of life during treatment but also adherence to subsequent cancer treatments, thus improving overall outcomes. This refreshingly readable handbook is therefore a must-read resource for all health professionals in a position to make this kind of a difference.

        Good Friend, Cancer

        by Pam Pam Liu

        When my mother gets cancer for the second time, she asked if I would keep her company through her chemotherapy. And of course, I said yes. But how am I meant to cope with it all? Pam Pam uses a clean but comical style to portray the joys and sorrows of accompanying a loved one through an illness.     Despite the technical and medical wonders of the modern age, cancer remains one of humanity’s biggest enemies. And while we all know the patients themselves suffer, what of their loved ones, who find themselves sudden becoming carers, struggling with negative emotions, drained by the demands upon them? They too face a long physical and emotional battle.   Good Friend, Cancer is a daughter’s first-hand account of her mother’s chemotherapy treatment. Finding herself now responsible for caring for her mother, she worries as she waits in the hospital that maybe her genes mean the same fate is in store for her. And she is also resentful – she has missed out on a change to follow her dreams and travel overseas. And most of all, and most unanswerably: why her?   Graphic novelist Pam Pam’s simple style and plain strokes provide a humorous look at a harsh reality and turn misfortunes into charming tales. Over the course of 18 short comics, Pam Pam examines the traditional roles of a “daughter” and the pressures of being an adult as she portrays truths about family relationships which we all recognize – even if we cannot admit to it.

        Winning the War on Cancer

        The Epic Journey Towards a Natural Cure

        by Sylvie Beljanski

        President Nixon declared the War on Cancer in 1971. 45 years and billions of dollars later, it looks like we have lost the battle. Or have we? When a natural, non-toxic way to fight cancer is discovered, it is big news in the scientific community. But instead of being embraced, it is fiercely opposed by those tied to the pharmaceutical industry. Research by the late Mirko Beljanski, PhD,—one of the first green molecular biologists—revealed that natural molecules can selectively target cancer cells and work alongside many chemotherapy drugs. Called upon by President Mitterrand of France to treat his prostate cancer, Beljanski allowed Mitterand to reach his second term in office; but upon the president’s death, the scientist became the subject of relentless persecution. This book, written through the eyes of Dr. Beljanski’s daughter, Sylvie, tells the true story of one woman’s quest to carry on her father’s legacy and to discover a new treatment for cancer. The book combines scientific information with a tale of defiance, hope, despair, personal growth and love.

        Retinoblastoma: Clinical Advances and Emerging Treatment Strategies

        by Timothy G Murray

        Retinoblastoma is the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor of childhood and was invariably fatal until relatively recently. Now though, retinoblastoma is curable in virtually all children presenting in the developed world. Furthermore, it is now possible to preserve the eye and retain functional vision, and advances in treatment now spare hundreds of children the need for treatment with systemic chemotherapy. These twelve chapters span the current field of retinoblastoma from laboratory discoveries to diagnostic advances to primary treatment through visual rehabilitation. Specific attention is given to retinoblastoma in the developing world and its implications for extraocular and metastatic retinoblastoma. Finally, the surgical importance of this disease is highlighted in the discussion of anesthetic considerations for examination under anesthesia, chemotherapy including intraarterial ophthalmic artery treatment and application of radiotherapy in primary, recurrent and orbital disease.

        Advances in Ovarian Cancer Management

        by Peter E Schwartz

        The sixteen chapters of Advances in Ovarian Cancer Management present a concise, timely and comprehensive overview on the current status of the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of women with epithelial ovarian cancer. The book introduces the incessant menstruation hypothesis, which may allow physicians to better understand and explain to patients why many serous ovarian cancers may actually be originating from the fimbriated end of the fallopian tube and why endometrioid and clear cell cancers may arise in association with endometriosis. Subsequent chapters discuss diagnostic evaluation prior to the patient undergoing treatment and the surgical and chemotherapeutic management of the disease. There are overviews of new approaches such as anti-angiogenesis therapy, PARP inhibitors, immunotherapy and emerging target therapies. Discussions of alternative treatment strategies, such as neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical cytoreduction and adjuvant chemotherapy are included, together with the management of recurrent ovarian cancer, both from a surgical perspective and from a perspective of chemotherapeutic agents. Advances in Ovarian Cancer Management concludes with a chapter on palliative care, a critical part of the overall management of women with this devastating disease. The final chapter provides contemporary guidelines for the initial management of ovarian cancer as well as for recurrent disease.
