Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease
Thank you for watching! Transcript: Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease is a rare, degenerative, fatal brain disorder that affects one in every million. It belongs to the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) family of human and animal diseases. The onset of this disease usually occurs at about 60 years of age and 90% of sufferers usually die within the first year of having the disease. Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease is broken down into 3 categories: Sporadic, Hereditary, and Acquired. Sporadic CJD is the most common and affects about 80% of the people diagnosed. There aren’t any risk factors that can lead you to have this type. Hereditary CJD affects 5-10% of the people diagnosed and is caused by a genetic mutation. Acquired CJD is the least common type that affects only 1% of the peopl...

What causes BSE, CJD & MS? Organic Farmer Mark Purdey on Organophosphates (2001)
Mark Purdey and Organophosphate (Film/Video, i-Contact, September 2001) Organic livestock farmer Mark Purdey was ordered in the 1980's, along with all cattle and dairy farmers in the UK, to treat his cows with an organophosphate pesticide 'Phosmet' manufactured by I.C.I.. Organophosphates are derived from military nerve gas and a systemic treatment (the chemical enters the entire internal system of the cow) would undermine his organic principles so Mark refused to treat. "If Phosmet is proven to have caused BSE, the worldwide use of organophosphates (OPs) could be put into jeopardy, costing the chemical industry billions. The government know more than they're letting on. They've stuck to the scrapie theory to placate people and give the impression they've got it under control." Mark P...

How, and when, people could get variant CJD?
Click here http://www.foodsafetypolicy.com/bseandcjdexplained Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as mad-cow disease, is a fatal neurodegenerative disease in cattle that causes a spongy degeneration in the brain and spinal cord. BSE has a long incubation period, about 30 months to 8 years, usually affecting adult cattle at a peak age onset of four to five years, all breeds being equally susceptible. In the United Kingdom, the country worst affected, more than 180,000 cattle have been infected and 4.4 million slaughtered during the eradication program. The disease may be most easily transmitted to human beings by eating food contaminated with the brain, spinal cord or digestive tract of infected carcasses. However, it should also be noted that the infectious agent, alt...

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Can Now Be Detected By Urine Test
Researchers at the Medical Research Council in Britain have discovered it may be possible to test patients for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease using urine samples, instead of the usual MRI. According to UPI, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, or CJD, is a rare degenerative brain disorder that affects approximately 1 in every 1 million people globally. The study was published in JAMA Neurology. Scientists used blood samples to test the urine of patients with CJD. Urine samples from patients with the disease were found to have high levels of prions, infectious agents associated with CJD and bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cattle. That illness is also called "mad cow disease." By the time their diagnosis is confirmed, patients usually have just weeks to live. While the study's authors admit the disease...

Creutzfeldt--Jakob disease or CJD is a degenerative neurological disorder (brain disease) that is incurable and invariably fatal. CJD is at times called a human form of mad cow disease, given that bovine spongiform encephalopathy is believed to be the cause of variant Creutzfeldt--Jakob disease in humans.
CJD is the most common among the types of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy found in humans. In CJD, the brain tissue develops holes and takes on a sponge-like texture. This is due to a type of infectious protein called a prion. Prions are misfolded proteins which replicate by converting their properly folded counterparts.
The first symptom of CJD is rapidly progressive dementia, leading to memory loss, personality changes and hallucinations. This is accompanied by physical problems such as speech impairment, jerky movements (myoclonus), balance and coordination dysfunction (ataxia), changes in gait, rigid posture, and seizures. The duration of the disease varies greatly, but sporadic (non-inherited) CJD can be fatal within months or even weeks (Johnson, 1998). In some people, the symptoms can continue for years. In most patients, these symptoms are followed by involuntary movements and the appearance of an atypical diagnostic electroencephalogram tracing. Most victims die 6 months after initial symptoms appear, often of pneumonia due to impaired coughing reflexes. About 15% of patients survive 2 or more years.
The symptoms of CJD are caused by the progressive death of the brain's nerve cells, which is associated with the build-up of abnormal prion proteins forming amyloids. When brain tissue from a CJD patient is examined under a microscope, many tiny holes can be seen where whole areas of nerve cells have died. The word "spongiform" in "transmissible spongiform encephalopathies" refers to the sponge-like appearance of the brain tissue.

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy diseases are caused by prions. The diseases are thus sometimes called prion diseases. Other prion diseases include Gerstmann--Sträussler--Scheinker syndrome (GSS), fatal familial insomnia (FFI) and kuru in humans, as well as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, commonly known as mad cow disease) in cattle, chronic wasting disease (CWD) in elk and deer, and scrapie in sheep. Alpers' syndrome in infants is also thought to be a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy caused by a prion.

Transcript:
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease is a rare, degenerative, fatal brain disorder that affects one in every million. It belongs to the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) family of human and animal diseases.
The onset of this disease usually occurs at about 60 years of age and 90% of sufferers usually die within the first year of having the disease.
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease is broken down into 3 categories: Sporadic, Hereditary, and Acquired. Sporadic CJD is the most common and affects about 80% of the people diagnosed. There aren’t any risk factors that can lead you to have this type. Hereditary CJD affects 5-10% of the people diagnosed and is caused by a genetic mutation. Acquired CJD is the least common type that affects only 1% of the people diagnosed. It is usually caused by exposure of nervous system tissue, including the brain, during a certain medical procedure.
Early symptoms of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease includes:
Rapidly progressive dementia
Problems in muscular coordination
Changes in personality
Impairment of memory, judgement, vision, and thinking
Depression and insomnia may occur
Severe symptoms of CJD includes:
Mental impairment
Myoclonus, which is involuntary muscle jerks
Blindness
Inability to move or speak
Coma
Development of infections such as pneumonia that can lead to death
Symptoms of CJD may be similar to those of Alzheimer’s or Huntington’s Disease, but to accurately confirm the disease, an autopsy needs to be done because CJD causes a unique change to brain tissue
CJD is caused by prions, which are harmless proteins found in human body cells, but once they become abnormal, they clump together which leads to neuron loss brain damage that is seen in the disease. The way the brain damage occurs is yet unknown. CJD can also be inherited. Prions can become infectious if mutation occurs in the prion gene or if the prion gene becomes mutated in an egg or sperm cell that will ultimately be passed down to the offspring.
CJD cannot be transmitted through the air or casual contact and is not contagious. But the disease can be transmitted by coming into contact with an infected person’s spinal cord fluid or brain tissue. There are cases of people contracting the disease from cornea transplants, dura mater grafts, implantation of unsterilized electrodes in the brain, and injection of contaminated growth hormones from the pituitary gland. The chances of contracting CJD through medical procedures has greatly decreased through the improvement of medicine.
At this time, there aren't any diagnostic tests that can diagnose someone with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. However, if a doctor suspects someone of having CJD, they’ll administer tests such as spinal taps and giving the patient an electroencephalogram that will rule out treatable forms of dementia (such as encephalitis and chronic meningitis). CT scans can also rule out brain tumors and signs of stroke. MRI scans of the brain can reveal the pattern of brain degeneration to determine if they’re caused by CJD.
Unfortunately, there is no way to treat CJD but current treatment is alleviating symptoms for sufferers by prescribing them opiate drugs and sodium valproate for the myoclonus.
Precautions that can be taken to prevent the spread of CJD includes:
Covering cuts and abrasions with waterproof dressings
Wearing face protection when coming into contact with splashing blood or spinal fluid
Disposing clothes that came into contact with a patient
Avoid cutting or poking yourself with instruments contaminated with blood
Soaking instruments that came into contact with a patient with undiluted chlorine bleach

"Prion diseases are a group of rare, invariably fatal brain disorders which occur both in humans and certain animals. They first came to public attention in the mid 1980s in the form of the BSE epidemic in the United Kingdom. BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) is a prion disease in cattle. Tissue from infected animals may have contaminated cattle feed, leading to the silent spread of the BSE epidemic. There is also a theory that BSE came from feed contaminated with scrapie, the long established sheep prion disease. Inevitably, concern over whether BSE could pass to humans mounted.
In humans the best known of the prion diseases is Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), which reportedly affects around one person per million per year. In the United States this translates to 250-300 new cases per year. It is well known that CJD is very difficult to diagnose leading to speculation that the one case per million report may be incorrect. Most of the cases are "classical" or "sporadic" CJD (sCJD), occurring for no, as yet, known reason. The sporadic form accounts for approximately 85% of the cases, the familial form approximately 15%. There have also been a few cases which have occurred from contamination via medical procedures; this type is known as iatrogenic or Acquired CJD. Finally over the last few years, another type of Acquired CJD called variant (vCJD) has been identified in young people. CJD has been linked to ingestion of beef tainted with BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy), most cases have occurred in the United Kingdom."

What causes BSE, CJD & MS? Organic Farmer Mark Purdey on Organophosphates (2001)

Mark Purdey and Organophosphate (Film/Video, i-Contact, September 2001)
Organic livestock farmer Mark Purdey was ordered in the 1980's, along with all cattle and dairy farmers in the UK, to treat his cows with an organophosphate pesticide 'Phosmet' manufactured by I.C.I.. Organophosphates are derived from military nerve gas and a systemic treatment (the chemical enters the entire internal system of the cow) would undermine his organic principles so Mark refused to treat.
"If Phosmet is proven to have caused BSE, the worldwide use of organophosphates (OPs) could be put into jeopardy, costing the chemical industry billions. The government know more than they're letting on. They've stuck to the scrapie theory to placate people and give the impression they've got it under control."
Mark Purdey, Organic Dairy Farmer, Exmoor.
"If the government are found liable for BSE - by enforcing organophosphate treatment - the payout could break the economy."
Tom King (Purdey's MP)
Leigh Day & Co are the legal firm Mark mentions with reference to the 1988 Camelford Water Disaster 30 minites in: http://www.911forum.org.uk/board/viewtopic.php?t=21090
Whoever the monkeys have been at the top of the tree, the Party line has stayed the same. Mad Cow Disease came about by feeding scrapie infected meat and bone meal to cows. But one West Country farmer has a different theory. One that the authorities and the pesticide producers have gone to great to lengths to silence.
Between the late 70's and 1982 British farmers were forced by law to treat their cows for warble fly with a pour on organophosphate called phosmet - organophosphates are derived from nerve gas formulated by nazi chemists during World War II. Big business soon realised its profit potential and, post war, it was exclusively marketed as an agricultural pesticide by ICI, and later their cunningly renamed subdivision Zeneca. Seeing how his own organically reared cows never developed BSE, but phosmet-treated cattle
brought onto the farm did, Somerset dairy farmer Mark Purdey refused to treat his herd. In 1984 MAFF took him to the High Court, but lost.
"Before 1982 farmers could treat warbles with an organic ground-up root compound called Derris. This was outlawed, so they could sell more organophosphates," said Purdey. Organophosphates, used to treat headlice in school children, have been implicated as a potential cause of Gulf War Syndrome. Purdey managed to alleviate symptoms in a BSE infected cow by injecting oxime, an antidote to pesticide poisoning. The cure was never completed as MAFF turned up and destroyed the cow. Unconvinced by the accepted cause of BSE and CJD, Purdey set about studying how disease clusters reflected OP usage. He found Britain, the only country enforcing phosmet use, to have the highest rate of disease. Ireland had some BSE, but OP use was voluntary, and given at a lower dose. Brittany (France) began to develop BSE following an enforced phosmet trial, and human new variant CJD was clustered in Kent's Wield Valley, where hop and top fruit growth gets saturated with organophosphates.
Agitated by Purdey's discoveries, the pesticide industry hit back. The dubiously named National Office of Animal Health (NOAH), a lobby group representing the UK animal medicine industry, whose membership reads like a Downing St dinner party invite list of extremely dodgy chemical interests - including Bayer, Monsanto, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche, Schering-Plough etc - published documents discrediting Purdey's work. NOAH produced an independent expert, Dr David Ray, for the BSE Inquiry, who turned out to be receiving funding from Zeneca for his Medical Research Council toxicology unit. "I don't think this affected my judgement," Ray told SchNEWS. "You may not believe it, but I didn't realise Zeneca produced phosmet at the time." Hmmm. In March 1996 - one week before the UK government admitted to a link between BSE and new variant CJD - Zeneca sold the phosmet patent to a PO Box company in the Arizona desert. As Ray said: "Zeneca are not keen to be sued."

Not sure what CJD is? I had no clue either when my mom was first diagnosed. Take a look at this short video with facts about the disease and pictures from Sandra's life.
SK5K Race of Hope for CJD is an organization that was founded in loving memory of Sandra Kelly, who lost her life to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in 2008. Currently, there is no known cure or treatment for CJD. Our mission is to help raise awareness of CJD and to raise funds for research of the disease so that one day a cure and/or treatment can be found.

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as mad-cow disease, is a fatal neurodegenerative disease in cattle that causes a spongy degeneration in the brain and spinal cord. BSE has a long incubation period, about 30 months to 8 years, usually affecting adult cattle at a peak age onset of four to five years, all breeds being equally susceptible. In the United Kingdom, the country worst affected, more than 180,000 cattle have been infected and 4.4 million slaughtered during the eradication program.
The disease may be most easily transmitted to human beings by eating food contaminated with the brain, spinal cord or digestive tract of infected carcasses. However, it should also be noted that the infectious agent, although most highly concentrated in nervous tissue, can be found in virtually all tissues throughout the body, including blood. In humans, it is known as new variant Creutzfeldt--Jakob disease (vCJD or nvCJD), and by October 2009, it had killed 166 people in the United Kingdom, and 44 elsewhere[5] Between 460,000 and 482,000 BSE-infected animals had entered the human food chain before controls on high-risk offal were introduced in 1989.
A British inquiry into BSE concluded that the epizootic was caused by cattle, who are normally herbivores, being fed the remains of other cattle in the form of meat and bone meal (MBM), which caused the infectious agent to spread. There are studies indicating that the cause of BSE may be from the contamination of MBM from sheep with scrapie that were processed in the same slaughterhouse. The epidemic was probably accelerated by the recycling of infected bovine tissues prior to the recognition of BSE. The origin of the disease itself remains unknown. The infectious agent is distinctive for the high temperatures at which it remains viable; this contributed to the spread of the disease in the United Kingdom, which had reduced the temperatures used during its rendering process. Another contributory factor was the feeding of infected protein supplements to very young calves.
This first reported case in North America was in December 1993 from Alberta, Canada. Another case reported later in May 2003. The first known U.S. occurrence came in December of the same year though it was later confirmed that it was a cow of Canadian origin and imported to the U.S. Canada announced two additional cases of BSE from Alberta in early 2005. In June 2005 Dr. John Clifford, chief veterinary officer for the United States Department of Agriculture animal health inspection service confirmed a fully domestic case of BSE in Texas. Dr. Clifford would not identify the ranch, calling that "privileged information." The 12 year old animal was alive at the time when Oprah Winfrey raised concerns about cannibalistic feeding practices on her show which aired April 16, 1996.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Can Now Be Detected By Urine Test

Researchers at the Medical Research Council in Britain have discovered it may be possible to test patients for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease using urine samples, instead of the usual MRI. According to UPI, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, or CJD, is a rare degenerative brain disorder that affects approximately 1 in every 1 million people globally. The study was published in JAMA Neurology. Scientists used blood samples to test the urine of patients with CJD. Urine samples from patients with the disease were found to have high levels of prions, infectious agents associated with CJD and bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cattle. That illness is also called "mad cow disease." By the time their diagnosis is confirmed, patients usually have just weeks to live. While the study's authors admit the disease remains incurable, they contend an improved diagnostic procedure marks significant progress.
