In July 2002, he will be honored at the 33 rd Annual Jack Buck Golf Classic. His tournament attracts more than 300 golfers every year, and has raised $7 million for Cystic Fibrosis research. 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. Few people outside of his own family have had the opportunity to see his poems. They cover far more subjects than baseball and other sports. Jack has donated eighteen of his poems to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to be published and used in the effort to generate donations through this site and other means of distribution.

ABC of health Cystic fibrosis Published by BUPA's Health Information Team January, 2003 Download this factsheet Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited condition. It can have many symptoms, affecting different parts of the body, particularly the lungs and digestive system. CF is the most common inherited disease in white people, affecting about 1 in every 2,500 children born. It is much more rare in people of African or Asian descent. Diagnosis of CF About one in five babies with CF are diagnosed at birth, when their gut becomes blocked by extra thick meconium (the black tar-like bowel contents that all babies pass soon after birth). This condition may need surgery. Just over half of people with CF are diagnosed as babies because they are not growing or putting on weight as they should. This is because the pancreas is not producing chemicals (enzymes) which pass into the gut as food leaves the stomach. Without these enzymes, the fat in food cannot be properly digested. In children who are affected, the fat passes straight through the gut. The child does not benefit from the energy from the fat. Since the stools contain an excess of fat, they are oily and very smelly. Other symptoms CF is a "multi-system" disease, meaning that it affects many body organs. However, most of the symptoms are to do with the lungs and the gut.

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.

INTERNATIONAL HEALTH NEWS DATABASE 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.

It causes the body to produce a thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs, leading to infection, and blocks the pancreas, stopping digestive enzymes from reaching the intestines where they are required to digest food. CF is caused by a defective gene, which codes for a sodium and chloride (salt) transporter found on the surface of the epithelial cells that line the lungs and other organs. Several hundred mutations have been found in this gene, all of which result in defective transport of sodium and chloride by epithelial cells. The severity of the disease symptoms of CF is directly related to the characteristic effects of the particular mutation(s) that have been inherited by the sufferer. CF research has accelerated sharply since the discovery of CFTR in 1989. In 1990, scientists successfully cloned the normal gene and added it to CF cells in the laboratory, which corrected the defective sodium chloride transport mechanism. This technique - gene therapy - was then tried on a limited number of CF patients. However this treatment may not be as successful as originally hoped. Further research will be required before gene therapy, and other experimental treatments, prove useful in combating CF.

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: Therapeutic Options For Co-management. Patrick L. Bufi, N.D. Abstract Introduction Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal autosomal recessive disease found in the Caucasian population, with a frequency of approximately one in 2,500 births. There are at least 500 different genetic mutations associated with the disease, thus making homozygous and heterozygous screening procedures difficult. However, approximately 70% of the mutations are found to be delta F508, making it the most common CF mutation. Delta F508 mutation is consistently associated with a single haplotype "B" which seems to support a "selective advantage" hypothesis. The possible selective advantage for the carriers of CF mutations (heterozygote advantage) could be a defense against the profuse diarrhea and fluid loss seen in cholera. Other selective advantage ideas exist as well. The hypothesis of increased resistance to human strain Mycobacterium tuberculosis, increased resistance to influenza, and protection against bronchial asthma in childhood and early adult life all present interesting possibilities. The primary CF defect is expressed as altered ion transport via the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), which is the protein regulating cyclic-AMP-mediated chloride conductance at the apical membranes of secretory epithelia.

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.
