In the News February 27, 2015 From: [email protected] on behalf of Lindo, Allisa Subject: Mount Sinai In The News - February 27, 2015 Date: Friday, February 27, 2015 11:22:47 AM Attachments: ATT00001.txt In the News February 27, 2015 Inquisitr – February 26 New Study on ‘Breakthrough’ Atopic Dermatitis Drug Indicates ‘Eczema Is An Autoimmune Disease’ Researchers behind a new study on the atopic dermatitis drug “dupilumab” (which is currently in trials) say that they have proven that this form of eczema is an autoimmune disease. The potential atopic dermatitis medication blocks the activity of two key immune proteins, interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13), and according to the researchers, can reverse the immune response within an allergic individual that causes the atopic dermatitis skin problems. The promising new atopic dermatitis drug study was led by Emma Guttman-Yassky, MD, associate professor of dermatology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York. - Dr. Emma Guttman-Yassky, Associate Professor, Medicine, Dermatology, Clinical Immunology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://www.inquisitr.com/1876764/atopic-dermatitis-drug-autoimmune-disease/ Melty Food (France) – February 27 Chocolate, Pizza, Fries: True Drugs? If you too cannot help but finish a chocolate bar, it’s normal. According to a study by the University of Michigan and the Faculty of Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital (New York), some foods can be addictive just like a drug . Among the most addictive, there is the top of the charts chocolate, pizza and fries. Processed products, which are added fats and refined sugars operate biological and behavioral responses due to strong artificial pleasure they provide. According to Nicole Avena, co-author of the study, this is "a first step in the identification of specific foods and their properties that can generate addictive behaviors. This could change the way we treat obesity.” - Nicole Avena, PhD, Assistant Professor, Pharmacology and Systems Therapeutics, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://www.meltyfood.fr/chocolat-pizza-frites-de-vrais-drogues-a385658.html [Article is in French] Additional Coverage: Detik Food: http://food.detik.com/read/2015/02/27/064554/2844451/900/gula-dalam-fast-food-membuat- kecanduan-8-kali-lebih-besar-dari-obat-terlarang?d992202284 [Article is in Indonesian] Impronta Unika: http://www.improntaunika.it/2015/02/cibi-spazzatura-sono-come-la-droga- sviluppano-dipendenza/ [Article is in Italian] AGI: https://www.agi.it/salute/notizie/ricerca_cibo_spazzatura_sviluppa_dipendenza_come_droga- 201502261850-hpg-rsa1020 [Article is in Italian] Mondiali Brasile: http://mondialibrasile.com/cioccolato-patatine-e-pizza-come-fumo-alcol-e-droga- 41376 [Article is in Portuguese] Epoch Times: http://www.epochtimes.com/b5/15/2/26/n4374936.htm [Article is in Chinese] Clinical Pain Advisor – January 2015 Acute Pain: Treating Objectively and Effectively Acute pain, by its nature, requires a careful approach. It starts with the understanding that people of different genders, ages, races, and dispositions experience pain differently. Ula Hwang, MD, associate professor of emergency medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is the lead author of a 2014 study published in the journal Pain. She says, “Across all settings, whether it be a doctor's office or an emergency room, acute pain is treated differently. Women and minorities get less analgesics and opiates. In our study we found that age also changes the way acute pain is treated.” Dr. Hwang says pain is subjective, adding “We don't want the pendulum to swing back to under-treatment of pain...Some people are highly functional with pain, and some are not. When duration and impact of pain become a quality of life issue, it is time for a chronic pain referral” -Dr. Ula Hwang, Associate Professor, Emergency Medicine, Associate Professor Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://www.clinicalpainadvisor.com/meeting-the-challenge-of-acute-pain/article/395313/ Crain’s Health Pulse – February 27 Cardiac Care Deal for Sinai Like many New Yorkers during this cold winter, The Mount Sinai Hospital is heading to Florida: It just signed a partnership with Jupiter Medical Center to create the Mount Sinai Heart New York at Jupiter Medical Center, with Dr. Gonzalo Loveday as its medical director. The Mount Sinai deal covers most facets of cardiac care. Plenty of Mount Sinai heart patients visit Florida in winter—as do the hospital’s doctors and executives, a trend that forged relationships between the hospitals. Arthur Klein, MD, president of the Mount Sinai Health Network, called the partnership “an integral step in providing access and continuity of care for our patients who … split their time between New York and south Florida.” - Dr. Arthur Klein, President, the Mount Sinai Health Network Learn more: http://www.crainsnewyork.com/article/20150227/PULSE/150229883/cannabis-toothpaste- coming-this-year KFSM – February 26 Healthwatch: Peanut Allergies A new study suggests many peanut allergies can be prevented. Researchers say their findings could lead to major changes in food allergy guidelines. The findings published in the New England Journal of Medicine found introducing peanut early dramatically decreased the risk of developing a peanut allergy. Hugh Sampson, MD, at The Mount Sinai Hospital says this is a landmark study that should change food allergy guidelines. “I think we will now see the prevalence of peanut allergy in this young population start to drop instead of continuing to increase the way we have seen over the last 10 to 15 years.” - Dr. Hugh Sampson, Professor, Pediatrics, Allergy and Immunology, Dean, Translational Biomedical Research, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://5newsonline.com/2015/02/26/healthwatch-peanut-allergies/ Yale Daily News – February 26 Branford Genomics Facility Expands Four months after its opening, the Mount Sinai Genetic Testing Lab — located in Branford, Connecticut and run by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai — is on track to meet its growth targets for the year. “We want to find new ways to identify mechanisms of disease and new ways to improve patient outcomes,” said Todd Arnold, managing director of the Mount Sinai Genetic Testing Lab. Andrew Kasarskis, co-director of the Icahn Institute for Genomics and Multiscale Biology, said Mount Sinai considered numerous options in both the New York-New Jersey area and in Connecticut when deciding where to locate the sequencing facility. -Andrew Kasarkis, PhD, Associate Professor, Genetics and Genomic Sciences, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Co-Director, Icahn Institute for Genomics and Multiscale Biology - Todd E.

"This dramatic increase in thyroid dysfunction associated with fluoridation of the water supply adds to previous studies indicating that fluoride has an inhibitory effect on the thyroid gland," said Terry Davies, MD, a professor of medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, in New York City. - Dr. Terry Davies, Professor, Medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes and Bone Disease, Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Science, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/health/sc-hlth-0304-fluoride-underactive-thyroid- 20150226-story.html USA Today via The Associated Press – February 26 Bulls Say Rose To Have Surgery On Friday The Chicago Bulls are optimistic Derrick Rose will suit up again this season and that surgery Friday on his right knee won't sideline him the rest of the way. The organization sounded upbeat that the procedure to repair a medial meniscus tear won't prevent the star point guard from suiting up again this season. The procedure comes with a shorter recovery period — about six weeks — than a reattachment but an increased risk of arthritis, according to Alexis Colvin, MD, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine at New York's The Mount Sinai Hospital.

Data from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons released today highlights some surprising trends—an almost 100% surge in butt augmentation in the past year, and a huge increase in minimally invasive, procedures, even in male patients. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgery, male breast reduction is a procedure that has increased 29% from 2000 to 2013. “Just yesterday half of my patients were male,” explains dermatologist Gary Goldenberg, MD. “A lot of men who are older are competing for jobs with much younger men.

The evening was MC'd by WNBC Correspondent Lynda Baquero with nearly 500 guests dancing in black tie. Executive director Patrick Charpenel expressed the feelings of many when he shared, "El Museo del Barrio is a museum created by and for the community in response to the cultural marginalization faced by Puerto Ricans in New York...Today, issues of representation and social justice remain central to Latinos in this country." 1230 Fifth Avenue 212.831.7272 New York, NY 10029 www.elmuseo.org Artist Rirkrit Travanija introduced longtime supporter Craig Robins who received the Outstanding Patron of Art and Design Award.

  • ABSTRACT AMERICAN BORN IMAMS: NEGOTIATING CLERICAL RESPONSIBILITIES and EXPECTATIONS by Anas Askar April, 2017 Director of Thesi
    ABSTRACT AMERICAN BORN IMAMS: NEGOTIATING CLERICAL RESPONSIBILITIES AND EXPECTATIONS by Anas Askar April, 2017 Director of Thesis: Dr. Lee Maril Department of Sociology This inductive, exploratory study seeks to understand in detail the personal perspectives and career paths that American born Imams experience as they become religious leaders. In doing so, this study will examine their objectives and goals for the religious communities in which they reside and are integrally related. More specifically, this study analyzes the responsibilities and expectations with which imams must contend on a daily basis. Symbolic interactionism frames these issues and, at the same time, is the driving force behind an understanding of the imams’ experiences as well as those of other important actors in Muslim communities. Employing structured and in-depth interviews, this convenience sample of American born imams addresses key questions which inductively give rise to three major themes: imams currently receive inadequate training for their positions as religious leaders in their communities; the relationship between the mosque board and an imam can directly reinforce or mitigate against problems within the religious community; and certain fundamental advantages along with disadvantages emerge for imams who are American born.

The forgetfulness is caused by lost and altered connections between neurons in the brain. But researchers at Rockefeller University and The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York found they could stop normal, age-related memory loss in rats by treating them with riluzole, a drug currently used to treat the neurodegenerative condition ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. - Dr. John Morrison, Professor, Neuroscience, Geriatrics and Palliative Care, Dean of Basic Sciences and the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://psychcentral.com/news/2014/12/28/rat-study-finds-existing-drug-may-prevent- memory-loss-as-we-age/79162.html Additional Coverage: New Hampshire Voice: http://nhv.us/content/14121243-als-drug-could-treat-age-related-cognitive- decline Science 2.0: http://www.science20.com/news_articles/als_drug_reduces_the_memory_fog_of_old_age- 151755 The Times of India - December 31 Feeling Drained Out?
