Physical Activity Reduces Prostate Carcinogenesis In A Transgenic Model
UroToday.com - A recent European study demonstrated that 10-year mortality from cardiovascular disease and cancer was decreased in a population of 70 to 90 year olds who adhered to a Mediterranean diet, were physically active, had moderate alcohol consumption and did not smoke. There are also reports suggesting an inverse association between physical activity and risk of prostate cancer (CaP). Yet mechanisms linking lifestyle and longevity are not well investigated. This report in The Prostate investigates an animal model for the association between physical activity and development of CaP.

Docs Plan Strike, Issue Own Declaration Of Independence

On Independence Day, Doctors on Strike for Freedom in Medicine will take on the mission of preserving, protecting, and promoting freedom in healthcare. This nonprofit organization"s web site (http://www.doctorsonstrike.com) states that their most pressing goal is to mobilize doctors to go on strike against any new government healthcare plans. Their long-term objective is to supply healthcare providers with intellectual ammunition to win the "philosophical war" against statism in medicine. The founding of Doctors on Strike coincides with the 233rd anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Doctors on Strike will simultaneously publish their own founding document, the Declaration of Independence for Doctors , which recognizes that doctors and patients have inalienable rights; Washington"s takeover of healthcare would violate these rights - the heart of the healthcare system; and the Hippocratic Oath requires doctors to take action to prevent harm. According to Dr. Garamoni, founder of Doctors on Strike, "Washington politicians are poised to inject a lethal dose of statism into the heart of our healthcare system - an industry already clogged with more government control than any others. This massive dose of statism would induce grave waves of arrhythmia - inflation, price controls, doctor shortages, waiting periods, and rationing. "We must act now to bring a halt to this leftist-led, lemming-like leap into the red sea of statism. We want the country to know - in advance - that doctors will strike if a new government healthcare program is established. "Inspired by the novel, Atlas Shrugged, doctors would shrug off the burden of statism, go on strike by refusing to participate in any new government healthcare plans and withdrawing from Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, and CHIPs. "The promise of a doctors" strike will mobilize voters to persuade politicians to vote against any public option: When the public knows in advance that doctors are planning to strike, they will flood politicians with angry calls, emails, and letters. Will politicians ever listen? I don"t know, but we"ll soon learn the answer to another question, "Who is John Galt?" Stay tuned." For more articles by Dr. Garamoni, click here.
