a fever :: Article Creator 'Starve A Fever' Adage Is Bad Advice, Virologist Warns As winter rages on, the cold and flu season is in full swing. And with a runny nose and a pounding head, even the most skeptical among us may be tempted to turn to old wives' tales and folk remedies. However, not only are these often ineffective, but scientists have warned that some can be harmful to our health. Take the old adage "feed a cold, starve a fever." Yes, we should feed our bodies when we have a cold, but energy and nutrients are just as important when we have a fever. A fever, like excess mucus, is just one of our body's many defense mechanisms to get rid of bacteria and viruses. "Many [disease-causing organisms], viruses in particular, don't like high temperatures," Dr. Pedro Piedra, a professor of molecular virology, microbiology and pediatrics at the Baylor College of Medicine, told Newsweek.

mmr m :: Article Creator Anavex: The Pediatric Rett Trial Failure Is Disastrous StudioEasy In my October article, I discussed the statistical basis for saying that the Anavex Life Sciences (AVXL) Alzheimer's trial was a failure. This trial of blarcamesine, the company said, demonstrated slowing of cognitive decline in a key phase 2b/3 study conducted in ~500 participants with early symptoms of Alzheimer's, including mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia. But I discussed how a faulty application of the so-called Bonferroni correction obfuscated the fact that the trial failed one of its two co-primary endpoints. While it may sound unfair that failing one endpoint makes the whole trial a failure, that's how statistics works; and that's why these are called "co" primary endpoints. Later that month, the company published preclinical data from the journal Neurobiology of Aging that showed blarcamesine was able to prevent ...
