Muhammad بسمله الرحمن الرحيم In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful ll praise is to Allah, we praise Him and we seek His help A and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds, whomsoever Allah guides will never be led astray; and whomsoever is led astray, no one can guide. I bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah, alone with no partner or associate, is His slave and His Messenger. ‘O (ﷺ) and that Muhammad you who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and die not except in the state of Islam as Muslims with complete submission to Allah.’ And: ‘O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person, and from him He created his wife, and from them both He created many men and women, and fear Allah through Whom you demand your mutual (rights), and (do not cut the relations of) the wombs (kinship). Surely, Allah is Ever an All-Watcher over you.’ And: ‘O you who believe! Keep your duty to Allah and fear Him, and speak (always) the truth. He will direct you to do righteous good deeds and will forgive you your sins.’ (Sunan Ibn Majah, 1892) 2 INFORMED CONSENT Informed Consent “Informed consent involves providing a potential subject with adequate information to allow for an informed decision about participation in the clinical investigation, facilitating the potential subject's comprehension of the information, providing adequate opportunity for the potential subject to ask questions and to consider whether to participate, obtaining the potential subject's voluntary agreement to participate, and continuing to provide information as the clinical investigation progresses or as the subject or situation requires. To be effective, the process must provide sufficient opportunity for the subject to consider whether to participate.” -U.S. Food & Drug Administration, (21 CFR 50.20.) his work is the culmination of a yearlong study into the T pathophysiology of COVID-19, though I dare to call it that as I feel my work has truly just begun. My inquiry into this dis-ease started haphazardly, or at least as my narrow mindedness would then perceive it, though my heart felt divinely inspired from the onset. My then three-year-old son was experiencing an ear infection which was characterized by fluid behind his eardrum. As an Herbalist, my goal was to find 3 Umm Nadia, Taliah S. Muhammad a remedy suitable for his condition. Despite my best efforts, the ear infection persisted. At some point, I began to research “chronic ear infections” and this led to my now comfortable acquaintance with a bacterium called Nontypeable Haemophilus Influenza or NTHi. Coupled with Divine Signs from Allah, fear was also a catalyst for my headlong engrossment in the world of pathogenic bacteria. As I would learn, NTHi is a frequent cause of otitis media or recurring ear infections in children and has life-threatening consequences should it become invasive. NTHi is a quite common gram-negative coccobacillus that colonizes the nasopharyngeal region in up to 80% of all humans. It is present in the nose and throat of 50% of all children and is usually harmless until it moves into the middle ear or the lungs where it can become fatal. After discovering that young boys like my son are more prone to chronic ear infections, I was thrust upon a path to learn all I could about NTHi. My research into NTHi started sometime in late March or early April of 2020. Either way, I do remember it being a short time after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Discovering that an invasive NTHi infection could spread to the lungs in conjunction with WHO declaring COVID-19 a respiratory virus was frightening, as the prognosis of a person having both dis-eases simultaneously did not seem promising. Through my research, I found that patients colonized with 4 INFORMED CONSENT NTHi may be at risk for severe dis-ease as specific viruses, like COVID-19, on top of a bacterial infection may significantly enhance the risk for excessive inflammation which is also known as a “cytokine storm”. Cytokine storm leads to the rapid formation of millions of foreign cells which attack the body through epithelial and endothelial tissues. This can cause a wide range of clinical presentations including systemic blood clotting, stroke, acquired hemolytic anemia, Kawasaki dis-ease, heart attack, and rapid cancer- all of which are symptoms found in patients with severe COVID-19 infections. It was at this discovery, that what started out as an Herbalist attempting to find a natural remedy for her sons’ ear infection turned into full-blown COVID-19 research. In an effort to inform others, I quickly released a two-hour long YouTube video on April 25, 2020 which documented some of my preliminary findings. Not everyone whom I shared the video with took part in my enthusiasm for this research. Thus, the too long video filled with my scientific ramblings received less than 20 views if my recollection serves me well. Eventually, I decided to shorten the video to 22 minutes precisely and the viewership increased to around 300 before its eventual takedown many months later. Still, it seemed no one paid much attention to my warnings that chronic ear infections may be a marker of COVID-19 contagiousness in children. There were many moments during my nightlong research escapades, which were filled with coffee drinking, highlighting, and many “ahh haa” moments, that I questioned 5 Umm Nadia, Taliah S. Muhammad myself in the solace and quiet of the darkness. I knew I was being led by Allah, The Most High, to complete this task but why wasn’t anyone listening? What exactly was I supposed to be doing all with this information? What was I missing? Looking back however, I am glad my videos did not get much attention. Firstly, much of the science connecting NTHi and COVID-19 remained elusive to me. Though, I knew intuitively the relationship was present, there was still so much information that I needed in order to paint the parallel in adequate detail. As I have come to realize, scientific research unfolds just as patiently, methodically, and beautifully as my beloved chamomile flower does at sunrise. Secondly, as my research progressed, so did a growing notion that the connection between NTHi and the emergence of COVID-19 could in no way be coincidental. In other words, the COVID-19 pandemic had to have been planned by man. Though, once again, there was much Allah, The Most High, had yet to show me so I could make this connection with proof. Had I come out with these assumptions without scientific proof, my claims would surely seem to others to be the mere speculation of a theorist with conspiracies. As I continued my research, it occurred to me that the videos needed to be taken down and my thoughts should be collected in a concise form. Thus, emerged my research paper entitled; “COVID-19: The Plague That Strikes Behind the Ear”. Initially, I made attempts to publish my research in major journals, but all these efforts were futile. In truth, I did not expect much from this process as the paper is written based

  • Discovering Genes Are Made of DNA Maclyn Mccarty
    feature Discovering genes are made of DNA Maclyn McCarty The Rockefeller University, 1230 York Avenue, New York 10021, USA (e-mail: [email protected]) Maclyn McCarty is the sole surviving member of the team that made the remarkable discovery that DNA is the material of inheritance. This preceded by a decade the discovery of the structure of DNA itself. Here he shares his personal perspective of those times and the impact of the double helix. Editor’s note — For a long time, biologists thought that ‘genes’, the units of inheritance, were made up of protein. In 1944, in what was arguably the defining moment for nucleic acid research, Oswald Avery, Maclyn McCarty and Colin MacLeod, at Rockefeller Institute (now University) Hospital, New York, proved that DNA was the material of inheritance, the so-called stuff of life. They showed that the heritable property of virulence from one infectious strain of pneumococcus (the bacterial agent of pneumonia) could be transferred to a noninfectious bacterium with pure DNA1. They further supported their conclusions by showing that this ‘transforming’ activity could be destroyed by the DNA-digesting enzyme DNAase2,3. This work first linked genetic information with DNA and provided the historical platform of modern genetics. Their discovery was greeted initially with scepticism, however, in part because many scientists believed that DNA was too simple a molecule to be the genetic material. And the fact that McCarty, Avery and MacLeod were not awarded the Nobel prize is an oversight that, to this day, still puzzles. “The pivotal t the time of our discovery and publication isolated from various sources, and that despite this discovery of in 1944 (ref.

    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2017 Alicaforsen in the treatment of pouchitis Greuter, Thomas ; Rogler, Gerhard Abstract: Alicaforsen is a 20-base antisense oligonucleotide inhibiting ICAM-1 production, which is an important adhesion molecule involved in leukocyte migration and trafficking to the site of inflamma- tion. Hitherto, alicaforsen has been granted orphan drug designation and is prescribed as an unlicensed medicine in accordance with international regulation for the treatment of pouchitis and left-sided ulcer- ative colitis. Given the positive results evolving from one open-label trial and one case series in patients with chronic refractory pouchitis, US FDA has agreed to a rolling submission for a license application for the treatment of pouchitis, which has been recently initiated. Whether alicaforsen leads to higher endoscopic and clinical remission rates as placebo and whether the response can be maintained in the long-term in larger studies is yet unknown. An ongoing multicenter international Phase III trial will definitely address these unanswered questions.

This means that neither patients nor doctors knew who was given which treatment. This was done to make sure that the trial results were not influenced in any way. There was also an optional open-label-access follow-on-phase available to patients in this study (except for patients in France, for whom the national regulatory agency declined this part of the study). Alicaforsen enema is an investigational product designed to work in inflammatory bowel disease. In this study, the target was pouchitis. As the sponsor for this study, we at Atlantic Pharmaceuticals Ltd feel it is important for you to know the results. When the study ended, we created a scientific report of all the data.
