McSweeney, Ph.D., R.N., of the UAMS College of Nursing, said. “The appearance of these new symptoms, in conjunction with women’s standard cardiovascular risk factors, should help providers recognize women who should be thoroughly checked for heart disease.” McSweeney was the lead researcher in the study which Circulation, the journal of the American Heart Association, published today. In a three-year study of women in Arkansas, North Carolina, and Ohio, the UAMS researchers found that 95 percent of women who had heart attacks remembered having new symptoms more than a month beforehand. The American Heart Association called the study, funded by the National Institute of Nursing Research, “one of the first comprehensive examinations of issues that might allow prevention of imminent heart attack in women.” The most common early symptoms that women remembered were unusual fatigue (70 percent), sleep disturbance (48 percent), shortness of breath (42 percent), indigestion (39 percent), and anxiety (35 percent). The symptoms stopped after their heart attacks. Only 30 percent of women in the survey remembered chest discomfort, which they usually described as aching, tightness, or pressure, but not pain. “Women need to understand that the appearance of new symptoms could warn of imminent heart attack or developing heart disease, especially if they have other cardiovascular risk factors such as smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, being overweight, or a family history of heart disease,” McSweeney said. In earlier studies, McSweeney and her colleagues found that women who remembered a variety of symptoms in the month before their heart attacks either ignored the signs or were misdiagnosed when they sought medical help. Women also tend to have different symptoms during heart attacks. Rather than the chest pain that men typically experience, women are more likely to have shortness of breath (58 percent), weakness (55 percent), unusual fatigue (43 percent), cold sweat (39 percent), and dizziness (39 percent). “Lack of chest pain may be a major reason why women have more unrecognized heart attacks than men or are mistakenly diagnosed and discharged from emergency departments. Many clinicians still consider chest pain the primary symptom of a heart attack,” she said. The Arkansas-North Carolina-Ohio group was primarily Caucasian, so McSweeney is now studying ethnic minorities. The other UAMS researchers on the project are Marisue Cody, Ph.D., R.N., and Patricia O’Sullivan, Ed.D. Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas continue grant to improve rural health care The Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas on Oct. 25 presented a check for $20,000 to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), continuing their support for a five-year program designed to reduce cancer incidence and mortality in rural areas of Arkansas. UAMS Receives Another $1.5 Million from Jackson T. Stephens, Plus Matching $1.5 Million from Donald W. Reynolds Foundation UAMS Receives Another $1.5 Million from Jackson T. Stephens, Plus Matching $1.5 Million from Donald W. Reynolds Foundation UAMS Cancer Researcher Obtains $1.5 Million for Study of Bone Cancer UAMS Cancer Researcher Obtains $1.5 Million for Study of Bone Cancer, LITTLE ROCK – Ralph D. Sanderson, Ph.D., of the Arkansas Cancer Research Center (ACRC), part of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), has obtained a $1.5 million grant from the National Cancer Institute for his groundbreaking work on the growth of tumor cells in bone. Sanderson will lead a team of researchers studying heparan sulfate proteoglycans, molecules made by tumor cells which can regulate the ability of the tumors to grow and metastasize. The ACRC team is investigating the processes by which heparan sulfate chains are released by an enzyme called heparanase. They believe this enzyme causes heparan sulfate to activate tumor cells and stimulatetumor metastasis to bone. Sanderson is internationally known for his research. Since he joined the UAMS faculty in 1989, he has received continuous funding for his research from the National Institutes of Health and the Arthritis Foundation. He is the Drs. Mae and Anderson Nettleship Endowed Chair in Oncologic Pathology in the UAMS College of Medicine. Thomas J. Kelly, Jr., Ph.D., an expert in degradative enzymes, and Larry J. Suva, Ph.D., an expert in bone biology, will collaborate with Sanderson. Kelly and Suva are also members of ACRC. During their five-year study, the researchers will focus on breast cancer and myeloma specifically, but their findings may be applicable to other cancers that invade and destroy the skeleton. The researchers believe their work will provide insight into the mechanistic process of tumor bone destruction, and may identify new therapeutic targets. Heparan sulfate is a carbohydrate (sugar) chain that is biologically active, binding to various “effector” molecules involved in cell signaling. Heparanase is an enzyme that will break down heparan sulfate chains into much shorter chains. That produces many more molecular chains that are still biologically active. These chains can stimulate the tumor to grow and metastasize. By preventing the breakdown of heparan sulfate, tumor growth may be inhibited. This study could help determine if any of the several heparanase inhibitors now being used in clinical trials are effective in the prevention of bone metastasis.

LITTLE ROCK – Governor Mike Huckabee praised “the most broad-based coalition I’ve ever seen” for creation of the College of Public Health at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) at the dedication of the college today. “Hundreds of people deserve appreciation and accolades” for the drive to devote Arkansas’ share of the 1998 tobacco settlement to health promotion, including establishment of the public health school, Huckabee said. Dean James M. Raczynski, Ph.D., and UAMS Chancellor I. Dodd Wilson, M.D., praised Huckabee; legislative leaders; Attorney General Mike Beebe; Director Fay Boozman, M.D., of the Arkansas Department of Health; and UAMS Chancellor Emeritus Harry P. Ward, M.D., for helping create the college. University leaders and President B. Alan Sugg, Ph.D., of the University of Arkansas Systyem surprised the college’s first dean, Thomas A. Bruce, M.D., D.Sc. (hon.), by naming the atrium “Bruce Commons” at the dedication. They singled out Bruce for his vision that “community is the essence of public health” and declared that the atrium and balcony, which overlook Markham Street in midtown Little Rock, will be a gathering place for all who want to make Arkansas a healthier state. As the first, temporary dean of the college, Bruce assembled a faculty and curriculum while plans for the building and recruitment of the first permanent dean were underway. Although the dedication fell on World Health Day, it was actually scheduled to fit in the governor’s schedule, Wilson told Huckabee during the ceremony. Establishment of the college would not have been possible without Huckabee’s support, Wilson said. Sugg called dedication of the state’s tobacco funds to health promotion “one of the most remarkable and progressive achievements in the history of our state.” Raczynski presented plaques to Beebe, state Sen. Jim Luker, state Rep. Jay Bradford, and Huckabee for their support of the 2000 CHART (Coalition for a Healthy Arkansas Today) proposal for spending tobacco funds. The ceremony culminated with a christening of the building by the college’s first graduate, Suzanne G. McCarthy, who sprinkled Arkansas sparkling water on the balcony railing.
