Pitt USDA APHIS Wildlife Services, National Wildlife Research Center, Hawaii Field Station, Hilo, Hawaii ABSTRACT: The National Wildlife Research Center (NWRC) and its predecessor laboratories have a long history of developing ma- terials and methods for managing rodents and the damage they cause. The NWRC has been influential in exploring, developing, and maintaining legal uses of many traditional field rodenticides such as strychnine and zinc phosphide. Products have been developed for managing rodents in a variety of locales, and for managing a variety of species, from commensal rodents in urban areas, to pocket gophers and mountain beaver in forests, prairie dogs and ground squirrels on rangelands, and nutria and beaver in wetlands. Consid- erable research has also been conducted on developing methods of managing rodents in underdeveloped countries. Recent efforts by NWRC have focused on development of tools for managing invasive rodents in conservation areas such as island ecosystems and development of alternative, nonlethal control methods.

  • Lessons Learned
    Prevention and Reversal of Chronic Disease Copyright © 2019 RN Kostoff PREVENTION AND REVERSAL OF CHRONIC DISEASE: LESSONS LEARNED By Ronald N. Kostoff, Ph.D., School of Public Policy, Georgia Institute of Technology 13500 Tallyrand Way, Gainesville, VA, 20155 [email protected] KEYWORDS Chronic disease prevention; chronic disease reversal; chronic kidney disease; Alzheimer’s Disease; peripheral neuropathy; peripheral arterial disease; contributing factors; treatments; biomarkers; literature-based discovery; text mining ABSTRACT For a decade, our research group has been developing protocols to prevent and reverse chronic diseases. The present monograph outlines the lessons we have learned from both conducting the studies and identifying common patterns in the results. The main product of our studies is a five-step treatment protocol to reverse any chronic disease, based on the following systemic medical principle: at the present time, removal of cause is a necessary, but not necessarily sufficient, condition for restorative treatment to be effective. Implementation of the five-step treatment protocol is as follows: FIVE-STEP TREATMENT PROTOCOL TO REVERSE ANY CHRONIC DISEASE Step 1: Obtain a detailed medical and habit/exposure history from the patient. Step 2: Administer written and clinical performance and behavioral tests to assess the severity of symptoms and performance measures. Step 3: Administer laboratory tests (blood, urine, imaging, etc) Step 4: Eliminate ongoing contributing factors to the chronic disease Step 5: Implement treatments for the chronic disease This individually-tailored chronic disease treatment protocol can be implemented with the data available in the biomedical literature now. It is general and applicable to any chronic disease that has an associated substantial research literature (with the possible exceptions of individuals with strong genetic predispositions to the disease in question or who have suffered irreversible damage from the disease).

  • Pesticides Definition
    Pesticides Definition • Pesticides are chemical compounds that are used to kill pests, including insects, rodents, fungi and unwanted plants (weeds). • Pesticides are used in public health to kill vectors of disease, such as mosquitoes, and in agriculture, to kill pests that damage crops. • By their nature, pesticides are potentially toxic to other organisms, including humans, and need to be used safely and disposed of properly. History • Since the prehistoric period, mankind has fought against the pests that cause damage to themselves, animals and plants and play a role in transporting epidemic diseases. • In the early 1940s, many organic compounds with arsenic, sulfur, copper, mercury, fluoride and calcium were used to combat these pests. • After these years, the period of synthetic and contemporary pesticides began and in 1942 DDT and similar organic chlorinated compounds were used, and after the 2nd World War, organic phosphorus compounds were used as herbicides and insecticides. History • Since the 1970s, 30,000 kinds of new compounds have been produced for use as pesticides, and 10,000 of these are used for the same purpose in developed countries. • From the 1970s onwards, the toxic damages of these pesticide species have been understood for humans and compounds such as carbamate group compounds, pyrethroids, which are less harmful examples of pesticides, have been used. • It is not known how pesticides, which have a very important place in the war against pests, will cause problems in the future despite their more effective and targeted use. Use Of Pesticides – Types Of Product Pesticides used in different settings: - Agricultural - Veterinary - Domestic - Institutional Formulations: liquid, gel, paste, chalk, powder, granules, pellets, baits..
