AUGUST 23, 1978 TERRACE BAY NEWS PAGE 5 ARTHRITIS NEWS: "The importance of arthritis is not recognized. It is very common and a very distressing disease, and although it may not kill, it does cause great suffering". These remarks were made by Dr. Christiaan Barnard, noted heart transplant specialist in an address to the Arthritis Foundation at their annual meet- ing in San Francisco. Dr. Barnard said that the perspective is wrong towards Arthritis. Modern medicine is based on length of life rather than quality of life. He com- wended arthritis researchers for treating the symptoms of arthritis in order to make life with the disease bearable, but he stressed the importance of adequate funding being made available and directed towards research for the cause of the various forms of arthritis. According to CHALLENGE, a pub =lication to the Arthritis Foundation, Dr. Barnard made the point that-arthritis research has a great deal in common with research being conducted with heart transplant patients. "It is generally accepted that some joint diseases are the result of rejection of certain tissues in the joints", he said. "In my case, the body has the ability to recognize that what have transplanted does not be- Tong to it. As a result, the body produces every action to re ~ject or destroy that which is non-self. And, this also occurs with some forms of arthritis". Barnard, himself a victim of arthritis, said that hopefully research would eventually lead to a cure for arthritis, and that efforts of arthritis resear ~chers will some day equip heart specialists with the ability to prevent body rejection of trars- planted organs.
