The Morning Call from Allentown, Pennsylvania • 56

D2 THE MORNING CALL, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1988 LEHiM Continued From Page D1 FALL Continued From Page D1 Several of the specialists at the NIA symposium found in a series of relatively small studies that persons who suffered more than two falls in a given period were much more likely to fall again than those who had only fallen once. Indeed, the researchers used the front of you may not be listening to what you tell them," Lehn added. "So maybe being a scientist was not that bad." Lehn, however, retained an interest in how the mind in other words, the nervous system worked, even though he became a chemist In fact, he said it was in trying to later enter the field of neurology "through another point of view that got him interested in how molecules recognize each other. One characteristic of the nervous system, he said, was that "nervous system information is transmitted through small molecules," so that provided the entry. He noted that all of life, including DNA's genetic code, relies on chemical bridges.

"We're all here because of hydrogen bonds," he noted slyly. Today, many see the kind of chemistry Lehn practices as being one that mimics biology bridging the two fields. But Lehn, who was involved in the first synthesis of vitamin B12 while a postgraduate student at Har- cause either many of their living facilities are on first floors or they live in buildings with elevators. "Or," he said, r'they may see stairs as being hazardous so they avoid them." Marcia Ory, a specialist in behavioral and cognitive programs at the National Institute on Aging and one of the directors of last month's symposium, notes that falls are now treated as "a serious researchable issue that is susceptible to being changed." "A fall may be a symptom of a disease condition, of neurological problems. In a sense," she said, "a fall is not a fall is not a fall.

Falls that occur to people under 65 are probably of a very different cause than those that happen to someone at 85." According to new figures from the CDC, falls were listed as the major cause of death in 1985 in 8,713 people over 65. In men between the ages of 65 and 84, falls are the fourth-leading cause of accidental death. In females, falls are the second-leading cause. In both men and women over 85, falls are the leading cause of accidental death. of estrogen replacement, a treatment to prevent bone-thinning in women.

In the past, some doctors thought that hips often broke before a fall sometimes by the stress of rising from a chair and that the fall would follow. "We think now that most people, in order to fracture their hips, must have a fall or some sort of traumatic event," Sattin said. Some 16 percent of the people in the SAFE study fell but sustained no injury. Other findings, the reasons for which are unclear, include a much lower rate of falls involving stairs. Said Sattin, "Some studies have indicated that stairs contribute between 25 and 35 percent of all injuries, but in our study we only found 7 percent, even though our rates of falls are as high or higher than in other studies." He speculates that older people in Miami don't have to use stairs be was also a chance for the wide-ranging Lehn, who illustrated part of his talk with slides of artwork (including sculptures, M.C.

Escher drawings and even a French cathedral that mimicked the shapes of his su-permolecules), to become philosophical about the role of chemistry. Perhaps the emphasis was not that unusual since the 49-year-old professor at the College de France and the Universite de Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg started out wanting to be a philosophy teacher. "When you are 18 or so, you are very much excited about everything that is going on in the mind and I wanted to become a philosopher," he explained. "But then I noticed that being a philosophy professor in a high school may not be the ideal position because all these people sitting in Kantner-Alexander marriage of Kristin Alexander to Dr. Kantner tookplace recently in Holy Catholic Church, Chatham, Mass.

Dr. Jean-Marie Lehn vard University, said that unlike with the biologist, nature doesn't limit what the chemist can study.

"Chemistry creates its object," he said, quoting a famous maxim. "What I mean by that is nature has chosen to exploit only a few of the chemical possibilities." The R.2. it' k't- The Joseph Redeemer Eve Kantner, man. The Harvey and Mrs. bridegroom's Mrs.

terms frequent iaiiers ana long liers," the latter to refer to people who fell but were unable to get up themselves. Dr. William Rakowski, a geron-toloeist at Brown Universitv's Bio medical Center, said that although it is important not to officially label people as "fallers," it must be recognized that some people are at risk for more falls. "Often they have to work through a very personal process, a psychology of healthfulness and of illness." It is, he said, rather like any chronic illness. "They have to maintain a sense of contributing to their family and their friends and, especially in terms of falls, they have to resolve the notion of the environment as a challenge and not a threat" and sugar.
