Like many National Jewish patients, six-year-old Megahn Vasa’s Megahn’s asthma under control and taught her how to better case was complex. She had severe food allergies, asthma, atopic monitor it with a peak flow meter. Since Megahn’s face was clear dermatitis and a mysterious, painful rash that kept appearing on during her first two visits, Dr. Carel asked Kathleen to take her face. Her asthma was out of control, and no one could figure pictures during the next outbreak, then used the photos to help out what was causing the rash. diagnose Megahn with eczema herpecticum, a viral infection that can cause a widespread infection in patients with atopic Reluctant to see yet another doctor who might not help her dermatitis.

Dr. Carel worked with the Vasas to get

Kirstin Carel, MD, helped solve the mystery of a painful and embarrassing rash on Megahn Vasa’s face. Then nurse practitioner Patricia Taylor enrolled Megahn in a research study.

National Jewish Medical and Research Center 2 Dr. Carel provided Megahn and her grandmother with the traditional personalized care that National Jewish physicians and staff have practiced for more than 100 years. In turn, Megahn has contributed to a new model of personalized care being pioneered at National Jewish. Instead of acting reactively to a patient’s symptoms with a trial-and-error approach, this new model seeks to capitalize on advances in genetics, imaging and biology so that doctors can proactively predict, prevent and treat disease based upon a customized profile of each patient. Megahn provided a tissue sample for a major research effort at National Jewish that will help make this new model of personalized medicine possible. Donald Leung, PhD, MD, the Edelstein Family Chair in Pediatric and Clinical Immunology, is leading a $20 million effort to better understand why atopic dermatitis patients are susceptible to skin infections, especially eczema vaccinatum, a severe and potentially deadly side effect of smallpox vaccination.

“Dr. Carel has been a godsend. She took the time to really understand Megahn’s situation,” said Kathleen Vasa. “Now I don’t feel like I’m alone. I have help.”

Megahn Vasa contributed a tissue sample to a National Jewish research study, “for people in the future.”

9 Annual Report 2007 Howard Weinberger, MD, head of the new cardiology division at National Jewish, has developed a test that detected a hole in Clifford McKenzie’s heart, which opens up only during exercise. It was repaired and McKenzie felt better immediately.

New Test Finds Hidden Hole in the Heart Dangerous defect shows up only during vigorous exercise

Over the years, Clifford McKenzie had found himself surprisingly Weinberger had recently developed a diagnostic test specifically short of breath after exercising, but never paid it much attention. for patients like McKenzie. That changed on New Year’s Eve 2003 when he collapsed during “I had noticed a number of patients who developed shortness of a ski trip in Colorado and had to be airlifted to Denver for breath during exercise but whose pulmonologists and emergency treatment. Ten months later McKenzie was one of the cardiologists could find no clear cause,” said Weinberger. first patients to undergo a cutting-edge medical test, developed by National Jewish physician Howard Weinberger, MD, that found At one point, it dawned on Weinberger that these patients might a hole in his heart. have a hole in the wall between the left and right sides of their hearts. The hole would allow oxygen-depleted blood on its way to After the ski trip, the shortness of breath became worse and, the lungs to cross over, or “short circuit,” from one side of the heart eventually, McKenzie was unable to walk his dog for even a short to the other. It would then be pumped back to the body without distance. Two doctors told the former Kiowa Tribal Chief that he first picking up a fresh supply of oxygen in the lungs. The lack of would need a heart transplant, and a third told him there was oxygen in the blood would cause shortness of breath and nothing that could be done about his condition. decreased energy. Because this short circuit may only occur “I wasn’t interested in a big surgery,” said the now 65-year-old during exercise, normal tests performed at rest did not detect it. McKenzie. “I knew there had to be other options.” Weinberger figured out a way to detect this problem, and McKenzie came to National Jewish and met with Dr. Weinberger, McKenzie was one of the first patients to use it. McKenzie got on a head of the new cardiology division at National Jewish. Dr. treadmill and ran as hard as he could until he was gasping for air.

National Jewish Medical and Research Center 10 Weinberger then quickly injected saline water into McKenzie’s veins and looked at the saline moving through his heart with an echocardiogram, an ultrasound of the heart similar to the ultrasounds used to look at a fetus inside a mother’s womb. If there is a hole in the heart the saline echocardiogram clearly shows the oxygen-depleted blood and accompanying saline flowing through the hole to the other side of the heart, bypassing the lungs. That is exactly what Dr. Weinberger saw when he performed the test on McKenzie. Shortly afterwards, McKenzie underwent a minimally invasive procedure to fix the condition. He felt better right away. “Within half an hour I noticed a difference. I was no longer pressed for breath,” said McKenzie. “I didn’t have my chest cut open, and I was out of the hospital in just a day rather than six months.” Vigorous exercise causes pressure to build up in the right McKenzie is now able to exercise and walk his dog with no side of the heart.

National Jewish Medical and Research Center 12 Basic and Clinical Researchers Collaborate on COPD Chance conversation leads to discovery of gene associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Immunologist Raul Torres, PhD, focuses his research on B cells, the immune-system cells that produce antibodies. When he wanted to know how a specific protein affected the movement of B cells through the body, he genetically engineered mice that completely lacked the protein. The lack of protein, known as Arhgef1, did indeed slow the movement of B cells, but it also had another rather startling effect. All of the mice missing this protein spontaneously developed emphysema, a form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This discovery prompted Dr. Torres to consult with Russell Bowler, Control Arhgef1 Deficient MD, PhD, Director of the COPD Program at National Jewish. Their collaboration has brought fresh insight that could allow doctors to The cells at the right, which lack the Arhgef1 protein, likely predict who will get COPD and provide better, more personalized cause emphysema in mice. Drs. Bowler and Torres are studying treatments for those who do develop the disease. the protein's effect in humans. The discovery began with a chance conversation.

Team members gather regularly to share information, establish a diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan for each patient. They teach patients and their families how to manage both the physical aspects of the disease and the psychological stresses that often accompany severe chronic diseases. “Having patients for an extended stay provides a unique opportunity to have experts from varied fields provide an accurate diagnosis and develop a comprehensive, personalized treatment program,” said Associate Professor of Pediatrics Kim Kelsay, MD, co- director of the program. In the Pediatric Day Program the whole family, not just the child, is treated. “Every family is assigned a psychosocial counselor who works with the entire family on how the child’s illness or condition has affected everyone in the family,” said Dr. Robinson. “We look at the social development of the child, the impacts on relationships Comprehensive testing helps physicians develop a personalized within the family, communication, how they have coped with the program for each patient in the Pediatric Day Program. child’s illness and explore ways to improve in all of these areas.”

23 Annual Report 2007 National Jewish – Pioneering a New Era in Medicine

At the close of the 19th century, National Jewish first opened its doors to care for indigent patients who had flocked to Denver, at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, for treatment. Throughout the 20th century National Jewish expanded, both physically and in the services it offered. In 2007, the Iris and Michael Smith Clinics and Laboratories opened, adding three floors of state-of-the-art research space, and three floors of patient-care, including the Institute for Advanced Biomedical Imaging™, to the 19-acre Denver campus (following pages). With new services, new facilities, and offices around the nation, National Jewish is pioneering a new era in personalized medicine for the 21st century.

Our Mission since 1899 is to heal, to discover, and to educate as a preeminent healthcare institution.

We serve by providing the best integrated and innovative care for patients and their families; by understanding and finding cures for the diseases we research; and by educating and training the next generation of healthcare professionals to be leaders in medicine and science.

Vision Statement

Our vision is to be the global leader in the research and treatment of respiratory, immune and related diseases.

We pursue this vision by pioneering individualized medicine programs which embrace the paradigm shift from reactive medicine to proactive, personalized healthcare. These programs enable us to integrate the provision of outstanding patient care, the conduct of novel basic, translational, and clinical research, and the education of healthcare and research professionals. Through our efforts, we seek to achieve cures for patients who seek treatment and to bring new knowledge and discoveries to help people worldwide.
