Indeed, he was one who shaped the development of North Carolina Baptist Hospital page and the Bowman Gray School of Medicine. Dr. Fuller also was a pillar of the Board of Directors of North Carolina Memorial Hospital from its creation in 1971 and, in this capacity, his contributions to our school and to all of the groups served by Memorial Hospital were considerable and will be lasting.

Another Tribute to Clayton Wheeler

The Department of Dermatology is establishing an endowed chair in honor of its veteran chairman, Dr. Clayton E. Wheeler, who plans to retire in June. During his 24-year tenure at UNC-CH, Dr. Wheeler has guided the department to a nationally preeminent position, both through its contributions to clinical and basic science and through its well-respected residency program. Dr. Wheeler's expertise has been recognized by numerous awards, including the prestigious Rothman Award from the Society for Investigative Dermatalogy. He has served as president of that organization and of the American Board of Dermatology. This year he received the School of Medicine's Distinguished Faculty Award. Before coming to Chapel Hill in 1962, Dr. Wheeler was professor of dermatology at the University of Virginia, where he became an authority on herpes simplex infections. Faculty members in the Dermatology Department want to raise $250,000 for the Clayton E. Wheeler, Jr., Chair by the time he retires. Contributions to the Dr. Wheeler fund should be sent to the Medical Foundation of North Carolina, School of Medicine, 229 McNider Building-202H, Chapel Hill, N.C. 27514. HISTORIC MOMENT Arthur Stanback, North Carolina Memorial Hospital's first heart transplant patient, smiles at well-wishers as he is wheeled out of the hospital by his wife Lola and hospital staff member Frances Jones. The message on his shirt, a gift from his doctors and nurses, reads; "I've had a change of heart in Chapel Hill." Stanback, a 56-year-old Raleigh resident, had been admitted to the hospital for treatment of idiopathic cardiomyopathy about a month before the transplant surgery Oct. 3. He was discharged in good condition Qct.lQ.

GROUNDBREAKING Dec. 20, 1986 was a big day for supporters of Ronald McDonald House of Chapel Hill. After more than meeting a $100,000 challenge gift, ground was broken for a two-story, 20 bedroom facility dedicated to serving as a home away from home for UNC medical center pediatric patients and their families.

cases, it frequently is accompanied by in­ flammation and injury to other organs in the body." Winfield says that by using molecular biology techniques, researchers are now getting answers to the causes of arthritis. "Arthritis may be caused by a microbial trigger. These triggers have not been fully delineated yet. but progress should be very rapid in the next few years. We can now induce arthritis in rats by giving them molecules contained in the cell wall of the common streptococcus bacterium," he adds. Researchers at the Center also are doing research into systemic lupus ery­ thematosus, a form of arthritis that in­ flames and damages connective tissue. SLE. which affects young women for the most part, not only damages tissue, but harms the body's ability to fight off infec­ tions, says Winfield. "We've done some work on the connection between SLE and AIDS," Winfield says. "They are alike in respect to damage to the immune sy.stem." The Research Center currently has sev­ eral federal grants to study SLE. which affects about one in 1,000 women. "SLE seems to be more prevalent in women of some races.

Health Promotion, Disease Prevention Cornerstone of New Effort

By Dick Broom

1 he notion that doctors ought to be con­ cerned with promoting health and Tpreventin g disease is "as old as the hills," says Dr. Floyd Denny. "Yet, for most people in academic medicine, it is really a new concept. We have been geared for so long toward caring for the sick and injured." In recent years, medical schools around the country have begun to reassess their rigid orientation toward therapeutic and corrective medicine. The UNC-CH School of Medicine has been among the most active and innova­ tive in introducing the concept of prevention into teaching and training programs, clinical practice and research. Denny, former chair of the department of pediatrics, is director of the medical school's Program on Health Promotion and Disease Prevention. Its purpose, he says, "is not to replace the curative emphasis with a preven­ tive emphasis, but to pay greater attention to the role that prevention might play in reduc­ ing the burdens of illness and injury." The mission of the program is to: • Foster prevention-oriented research, • Develop demonstration programs to pro­ vide community services and function as sites for teaching and research, and • Introduce principles of health promotion and disease prevention into the medical curriculum at all levels. The medical school's program is a key part of a far-reaching University initiative aimed at improving and safeguarding the health of

Dr. William Heizer shows Cassandra Sloop, a member of a Carolina Fitness Center exercise class, how to use a rowing machine. representatives from the health affairs schools, from other schools and departments on campus and from appropriate state agen­ cies. The School of Medicine is well repre- f. sented in all of these collaborative efforts, and several members of the medical faculty serve in leadership roles. Dr Thomas Griggs in the department of medicine co-chairs the task force on cardio­ vascular disease and serves as medical direc­ tor of one of its projects, the Public Safety Personnel Program. Developed in coopera­ tion with the North Carolina Justice Academy, the program aims to improve the cardiovas­ cular fitness of state law enforcement officers. New recmits who go through the Academy's Basic Law Enforcement Training Program have their cholesterol levels monitored and receive instruction in physical fitness includ­ ing diet, exercise and stress reduction. "Our goal," says Griggs, "is to develop a standardized program which can be incor­ porated into the training of all law officers in the state." He says the program also has a strong research component. "We'll be follow­ ing these people to see if what we're doing has a long-term effect on the incidence of cardio­ vascular disease." The task force on cancer is co-chaired by two department of medicine faculty members: Dr Joseph Pagano, director of the Lineberger Cancer Research Center and Dr Suzartne Fletcher Fletcher says the task force is particularly interested in fostering cancer prevention efforts in clinical practice settings. Many are already under way, including several based in Area Health Education Centers. In one such project, medicine and pediat­ rics residents in several of the state's AHECs are taught techniques for counseling their patients to stop smoking.

new trauma registry system has been created at UNC-CH to help some ANorth Carolina hospitals identify more precisely the number, type and extent of injuries in the state. The National Academy of Sciences has called trauma the "neglected disease of modem society, a health problem second only to the ravages of ancient plagues or World Wars." Trauma, or injury, is the leading cause of death for Americans under 44 years of age, and the fourth lai;gest killer for all Americans. In 1983 alone, more than 143,000 people in the United States died of injury. But according to experts in the field, research into trauma is scant and any organ­ ized body of knowledge about trauma is small compared to other areas, such as cancer or heart disease. "Even though we know that trauma is a serious problem, we don't have much infor­ mation on how to attack it," says Dr. Robert Rutledge. "That's why this new trauma regis­ try system is important." Rutledge, a general surgeon at North Carolina Memorial Hospital and a faculty member in the Department of Surgery at UNC's medical school, is data base director of the program set up to create a trauma registry in North Carolina. "This is a first step in finding out more about trauma. We're going to find out what happens to injured people in North Carolina," says Rutledge. Trauma includes intentional or uninten­ tional injury to an individual. From a medical standpoint, it is labeled an injury if it is severe 8 enough for an individual to seek medical atten­ tion or to be unable to perform usual activity for a day or more. Categories include injury Percentages of years of as a result of motor vehicle accidents, falls, potential life lost to bums, near drownings, gunshot wounds, etc. injury, cancer, Motor vehicle deaths account for most heart disease and other deaths due to injury, reports Dr George diseases before age 65. Sheldon, chairman of the Department of Surgery at the UNC-CH medical school. "This yean about 50.000 Americans will die in car accidents." Sheldon says. "About 15.000 people will die as result of violent crime, most of those from gunshot wounds." Smaller trauma categories include burns and accidental falls. In North Carolina, an estimated 7,146 people are severely injured each year accord­ ing to a recent report issued by UNC's medical school and the State Office of Emer­ gency Medical Services. The trauma registry in North Carolina is one of the first of its kind in the nation. Although Illinois was the first state to estab­ lish a trauma registry in 1970. only about six states currently have a system similar to the one here. Rutledge developed the software program puter for analysis. But the advantage to the to have hospitals equipped to serve as major that is used to collect and analyze data on in­ new software program, says Rutledge. is that trauma centers.

Noise is Golden For Patients With Cochlear Implant

oris Burkie awakens to the insistent buzzofheralarmclock. She turns to Dshut it off, then flips on the radio for background music while she dresses. An hour later. Burkie walks briskly down a busy street in Wilmington. A car horn blanes at another car filled with teenagers ind a squalling radio turned full blast to the local Top 40 station. Sound like something you would want to tune out? Not to Burkie. Now, thanks to a revolutionary cochlear implant device and a physician at the UNC-CH School of Medi­ cine, she is able to hear again after being totally deaf for 10 years. You might say that for Burkie, noise—any noise—is golden. The implant surgery is so new that few people in the United States have undergone the operation, and only 20 surgeons nation­ wide are authorized to perform the implant surgery. One of these is Dr Harold C. Pillsbury, chief of the division of otolaryngo­ logy at UNC. Pillsbury says the cochlear implant opens up "a whole new world for people who were totally deaf before. "When deaf people have to communicate with hearing people, it's very difficult," Pillsbury says. "How many hearing people know how to sign, for example?" As a conse­ quence, Pillsbury says, "deaf people are really left with just a small group of individuals.
