This year he has stepped up to the plate again. with 100% of the proceeds going directly to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. For his own enjoyment, Jack has been composing poetry most of his life.

Fish Oils and Emphysema/Cystic Fibrosis Summaries of the latest research concerning fish oils and emphysema/cystic fibrosis Lung disease and fish oils - A review of the evidence BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS. The idea that fish and fish oils may protect against lung disease developed from early studies of the dietary habits of Greenland Eskimos. Dr. D.F. Horrobin hypothesized that the high content of omega-3 fatty acids in the Eskimo diet is at least partially responsible for the low prevalence of lung disease in this population group. This makes biological sense inasmuch as omega-3 fatty acids (notably from fish and fish oils) are known to inhibit the synthesis of the inflammatory eicosanoids involved in lung diseases. Dr. Schwartz concludes that there is a good case for fish and fish oils being protective against the development of chronic lung diseases, but that more research is needed to establish conclusive proof of benefits. Schwartz, Joel. Role of polyunsaturated fatty acids in lung disease. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 71 (suppl), January 2000, pp. 393S-96S Intravenous fish oil infusion safe for CF patients NEW YORK, NY. Seriously ill cystic fibrosis (CF) patients cannot absorb fats and other nutrients properly and therefore often need infusions of essential fatty acids. These infusions are most often based on linoleic acid as many CF patients have been found to have a deficiency of this omega-6 fatty acid. There is now substantial evidence that long-chain omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oils can suppress inflammatory processes such as those involved in CF.

CYSTIC FIBROSIS MARATHON TEAM NEW YORK 2000 Maarten Koeman English Soms is een chronische ziekte geen belemmering om een fantastisch sportief doel voor ogen te houden. Na een jaar voorbeidingen zou Maarten Koeman ondanks zijn aandoening cystic fibrosis (CF) , in november 2000 voor de 5e maal de marathon van New York gaan lopen. Samen met een groep van 10 mede-lopers zou de 33-jarige hardloper in november 2000 in New York laten zien waar een enorme dosis doorzettingsvermogen toe kan leiden. Maar het liep allemaal een beetje anders....... Een week voor vertrek naar New York werd Maarten Koeman voor het eerst in 17 jaar opgenomen in het ziekenhuis en kon zelfs niet mee als supporter. Toch is op zijn verzoek het Cystic Fibrosis Marathon Team naar New York vertrokken met het oorspronkelijke doel: Cystic Fibrosis in de publiciteit brengen. En dat is zeker gelukt! In het weekend van 5 november is er veel aandacht geweest in de media. Verschillende TV programma's en kranten hebben meegewerkt aan deze actie. Na deze ziekenhuisopname is Maarten weer begonnen met hardlopen voor zijn gezondheid.

On the Edge archive Lessons from an angel H eaven is an even better place this week than it was last week, with the addition of a special new angel. Marisa Nicole "Nikki" Turrentine-Hejl, my beloved stepdaughter, ended her fight with cystic fibrosis early Tuesday morning. Her mother and I and other family members were at her bedside as she took her final breath. Nikki was special to her family, and she was special to the Virtual Voyager family. She was one of our earliest voyagers when she and her mother, my dear wife Melissa, took us along with them to Australia in A Voyage Through Life . She also joined us a couple of years ago when Virtual Voyager went to Mardi Gras in New Orleans. All her family and friends, quite naturally, are sad beyond words. But in the midst of our despair, Nikki gave us many gifts, and I'd like to share a few of those with you. F irst, Nikki never lost her sense of humor. She fought this horrible disease for 22 years, and she knew the score. She didn't want to die, but by Monday morning, she knew the end was near. Carolyn, a friend and nurse who had taken care of Nikki since she was diagnosed at 5 months old, came to the room at Texas Children's Hospital and stood beside Nikki's bed for a long time as Nikki drifted in and out of consciousness. Many doctors and nurses were there with the friends and family. During one of her lucid periods, she looked up at Carolyn and said, "Fix it." Carolyn assured her everyone was doing all they knew how to do. Nikki looked up at her again and said, "Fix it, or I'm taking you with me." And this room full of people who had been so grim broke into laughter.

Work includes formulation development, reagent production, preclinical testing, and human clinical trials. http://users.ox.ac.uk/~genemed/default.htm

Click to enter Cystic Fibrosis is one of the most common genetic diseases. Research is directed towards developing a treatment for the pulmonary symptoms of cystic fibrosis using, primarily, non-viral (plasmid/liposome) delivery systems for gene transfer. Laboratory studies focus on understanding the factors which limit gene transfer and developing improved gene transfer reagents and delivery methods. These reagents are tested in transgenic mouse models prior to entering optimal formulations into an ongoing clinical trials programme

Cystic Fibrosis is a disease which affects the body's exocrine glands, including the pancreas, sweat glands, and the lungs. It is a hereditary disease most common in white children, occuring in about one in every 2000 births. It is less common among African-American children. (about one in 17,000 births), and even more rare among Orientals (one in 100,000 births ) The mode of inheritance is autosomal which means that it does not involve the x or y chromosomes, which determine sex. It is also recessive, which means that the disease is inherited from both parents. About five percent caucasian Americans are believed to carry the gene. The number of CF carriers is likely to increase in the future. Formerly CF patients rarely lived to adulthood, but improvements in treatment allow many to survive into their thirties or forties and have children of their own. The disease varies considerably in severity. Some cases are vary mild, and may not be diagnosed until adulthood. The probabilities of producing offspring who either have the disease or are carriers of the genetic defect are listed in figure 1. Figure 1. Probability of Having a Child With Cystic Fibrosis

When Should You Suspect That a Child May Have CF? ... For More Information WHAT IS CYSTIC FIBROSIS? Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic, progressive, and frequently fatal genetic (inherited) disease of the body's mucus glands. CF primarily affects the respiratory and digestive systems in children and young adults. The sweat glands and the reproductive system are also usually involved. On the average, individuals with CF have a lifespan of approximately 30 years. CF-like disease has been known for over two centuries. The name, cystic fibrosis of the pancreas, was first applied to the disease in 1938. Back to Table of Contents HOW COMMON IS CF? According to the data collected by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, there are about 30,000 Americans, 3,000 Canadians, and 20,000 Europeans with CF. The disease occurs mostly in whites whose ancestors came from northern Europe, although it affects all races and ethnic groups. Accordingly, it is less common in African Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Americans. Approximately 2,500 babies are born with CF each year in the United States. Also, about 1 in every 20 Americans is an unaffected carrier of an abnormal "CF gene." These 12 million people are usually unaware that they are carriers.
