Book excerpt: of UB’s medical school, that UB developed its School of Arts and Sciences, and thus, assumed its place among the other institutions of higher education. Had Fillmore lived throughout UB’s first seventy years, he would probably have been elated by the success of his university, and he should have been satisfied and pleased that UB remained intrinsically bonded to its community while at the same time engrafting the values and standards important to higher education’s mission in the region. UB and its medical school have undergone many challenging transitions since 1846. Included among them were: (1) the completion of an academic campus in the far northeast comer of the City of Buffalo while leaving its medical, dental and law schools firmly situated in the core of downtown Buffalo; (2) the eventual relocation, after the second world war, of the law school to the newer campus in Amherst, and the medical and dental school to the original academic campus: and (3) the merger with the State University of New York System in 1962. Despite these significant transitions, any one of which could have changed the intrinsic integrity of UB and disrupted the bonding between community and university, that did not happen. To this day, the ties between community and academe persist. Fillmore and White should celebrate their success and important contribution to Buffalo and Western New York.

Book Synopsis Low Protein Cookery for Phenylketonuria by : Virginia E. Schuett
Download or read book Low Protein Cookery for Phenylketonuria written by Virginia E. Schuett and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much more than a cookbook, Low Protein Cookery for Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a practical and easy-to-use guide for those who must maintain a protein-restricted diet for treatment of PKU or similar inherited diseases of protein metabolism. It contains hundreds of helpful suggestions for managing the diet. This third edition of Low Protein Cookery for PKU appears exactly twenty years after the original 1977 publication and includes the 450-plus recipes and the hints from the 1988 second edition that have been used and enjoyed by families for nearly a decade. The major new feature of the third edition is entirely new nutrient calculations. The available food supply has changed significantly in the past fifteen years, and nutrient information is much better now. The nutrient calculations in this edition of the cookbook are based on the updated 1995 Low Protein Food List for PKU compiled by the author, which is the most widely used food list for the PKU diet in the United States. Some of the changes in nutrient values are subtle, others more significant; all reflect the best information currently available. Low Protein Cookery for PKU offers recipes that appeal to a wide range of ages, suit a wide range of individual diet requirements, and facilitate integration of the diet into normal family eating routines. Many of the recipes are suitable for the entire family; others include instructions for adapting the recipe to suit the needs of family members not on the diet, or are accompanied by recipes for the preparation of similar non-diet items. The recipes provide gram weights when appropriate, for greater accuracy in preparing the recipes and in maintaining the diet.

This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been replaced by the online service HowMuchPhe.org, and smaller, pocket books are available at howmuchphe.org/books. The Low Protein Food List for PKU has been an indispensible resource for everyone involved in the treatment of phenylketonuria (PKU) since 1995. This third edition contains over 6,000 entries, the most extensive listing yet of foods that are potentially suitable for the diet, nearly double the number found in the previous edition. It includes many new foods found at health-oriented grocery stores, expanding choices for the diet. The book provides information on phenylalanine (phe), protein, and calorie content of foods based on serving portions, both in common measures and gram weights, in an easily searchable format. The handy "mg phe/gm food" column allows users to compare phenylalanine density of foods and make appropriate food choices for individual diet needs. People using an "exchange" system for counting phe will find exchanges are calculated for each food portion as well. The front section of the book also contains valuable information and tips for managing the PKU diet.

This book was released on 2013-05-20 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder in which an inability to properly metabolize the amino acid phenylalanine (Phe) leads to a buildup of Phe in the blood, causing neurotoxicity and resulting in intellectual disability, delayed speech, seizures and behavior abnormalities. PKU is typically diagnosed at birth following abnormal newborn screening results. With adherence to a Phe-restricted diet, poor outcomes can be mitigated. Nonetheless, management of PKU can be difficult and onerous for the patient and the family, leading to interest in identifying new ways of managing this lifelong condition. The mainstay for treatment of PKU is a diet that restricts the intake of Phe to control the Phe concentration in the blood. In 2007 the United States Food and Drug Administration approved sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan®, formerly known as Phenoptin) for the treatment of PKU under the stipulation that studies regarding the drug's efficacy and long-term safety continue. Sapropterin dihydrochloride (hereafter, BH4) is presumed to work by enhancing residual enzyme activity present in some individuals with PKU. In addition to a Phe-restricted diet and BH4, another potential treatment for PKU is large neutral amino acids (LNAAs). In theory, LNAAs decrease the brain Phe concentration by competing with Phe for shared amino acid transporters to cross the blood-brain barrier. The Vanderbilt Evidence-based Practice Center completed an Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)-funded systematic review of adjuvant treatments (BH4, LNAAs) for PKU. The report focused on Key Questions related to outcomes and harms of adjuvant treatment with BH4 and LNAAs in individuals with PKU, including pregnant women with PKU, and effects in subgroups (defined by demographic, clinical, genotypic, and adherence-related variables such as age, disease severity, genetic mutations, and dietary status). Key Questions also addressed evidence for optimal Phe levels for minimizing cognitive impairment. Overall, evidence was graded as insufficient to moderate to address treatment-related questions. Dietary management remains the mainstay of treatment for PKU, and maintaining control over the lifetime is an appropriate goal. Nonetheless, there is potential to support patients in achieving their clinical goals and possibly liberalizing their diet with adjuvant therapy. BH4 has been shown in two RCTs and two open label trials to reduce Phe levels in some patients, with significantly greater reductions seen in treated versus placebo groups. Overall, harms associated with the drug were minor. To date, there are no data to directly establish the potential effects of BH4 on longer term clinically important outcomes, including cognition, executive function, and quality of life. Thus, while the strength of evidence is moderate for a large, positive effect of BH4 on reducing Phe levels over the short term in some groups of patients showing initial responsiveness, evidence for the effect of BH4 on longer term clinical outcomes is low, and based on indirect associations, including a meta-analysis of the relationship of Phe levels and IQ. In theory, supplementation of a Phe-restricted diet with LNAAs might have a beneficial effect on cognition as LNAAs may competitively inhibit transportation of Phe through the bloodbrain barrier, thereby offering protection by potentially decreasing brain Phe levels. However, there was insufficient evidence to suggest that LNAAs could be a viable treatment option for reducing Phe levels or increasing Phe tolerance. Increasing Phe is clearly associated with decreased IQ, with a probability of IQ less than 85 exceeding the population probability (approximately 15 percent) at blood Phe over 400 µmol/L and leveling off at about 80 percent at 2000 µmol/L (moderate strength of evidence). This finding supports the typical target goal for blood Phe levels in individuals with PKU (120 to 360 µmol/L).
