Host: Saad Z. Usmani, MD, MBA, FACP Guest: Joshua Richter, MD Guest: Ashley Steinberger, APP Release date: 8/15/2024Expiration date: 8/15/2025Estimated time to complete: 1.0 hour This activity is not accredited for CME/CE credit. This episode of Myeloma Matters reviews the latest data on bispecific antibody therapy for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) discussed at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and European Hematology Association (EHA) annual meetings, including information about the use of fixed-duration dosing to mitigate adverse events (AEs). The program includes in-depth discussion and analysis of the latest scientific findings and practice-changing advances in managing RRMM. Expert faculty will place abstract findings into clinical context and discuss strategies for preventing and managing AEs associated with bispecific antibody therapy in RRMM treatment, which include cytokine release syndrome (CRS), neurotoxicity, and infection.

Do we understand racism as the primary driving engine of American inequality? Or do we focus instead on the indirect ways that frequently hard-to-discern class inequality and inegalitarian power relations can produce racially differentiated outcomes? Adaner Usmani, Assistant Professor of Sociology and Social Studies at Harvard and on the editorial board at Catalyst joined Elizabeth and John back in Fall, 2020, to wrestle with the subtle and complex genealogy of Southern plantation economy and its racist legacy. Adaner offers a complex genealogy of violence, mass incarceration and their roots in the social inequity (and iniquity) of antebellum economic relations. He emphasizes a frequently overlooked fact that a century ago Du Bois had already identified a key issue: the belatedness of African-American access to the social mobility offered by the North's industrialization, thanks to structures of a racist Southern agricultural economy that kept African-American workers away from those high-wage jobs. The result? An explanation for racial injustice that hinges on ossified class imbalances--contingent advantages for certain groups that end up producing (rather than being produced by) bigotry and prejudice.

The root cause of Takabbur   Hadhrat Thanavi RE said:    “the root cause of Takabbur is not being really cognizant of Allah Ta'ala's greatness.”

Hadhrat Thanavi (may Allah have mercy on him) said;   “A person's ego is a great barrier. It cannot be treated without crushing it.”

Hadhrat Thanvi RE has described a unique practical treatment for Gheebat. This treatment is very difficult, but if someone does it Insha'Allah he will be able to quit Gheebat within a few days. He said;   “A practical treatment for Gheebat is that whenever a person commits someone's Gheebat, he should let that person know that I have committed your Gheebat. Insha'Allah this illness of Gheebat will subside within a few days of this treatment.”

Hadhrat Thanvi (may Allah be pleased with him) said;   “If there is a genuine religious need then Gheebat is permissible in those situations, for example, the way Muhaddithin (scholars of Hadith) have discussed the narrators of Hadith. However, if there is no pressing religious need, and the purpose behind Gheebat is only to do gossip and to enjoy it, then in those situations even telling someone's true flaws (behind his back) is Haraam (unlawful), and saying something untrue without any effort to find out the truth is ‘Buhtaan' (slander). The basis of what is said being a lie is not upon making an effort to confirm that it is a lie, but upon not making an effort to find out the truth.”  

Hadhrat Thanavi (may Allah have mercy on him) said;   “The real treatment of thinking ill of others (Badgumani), undue curiosity (Tajassus), and Gheebat (backbiting) is to adopt Tawazu' (humility) and remove Takabbur (arrogance, grandiosity) from one's heart. But until one gets rid of these core spiritual illnesses, until such time he should treat his illness of Gheebat in the following way; (1) reflect and ponder before you say anything, (2) fix some fine on yourself if you do slip up (and commit Gheebat), and (3) divert your attention towards Allah Ta'ala's Dhikr (remembrance) when you get bad thoughts about others.” 

Allah Ta'ala says in the Noble Qur'an,    “O you who believe, abstain from many of the suspicions. Some suspicions are sins. And do not be curious (to find out faults of others), and do not backbite one another. Does one of you like that he eats the flesh of his dead brother? You would abhor it. And fear Allah. Surely Allah is Most-Relenting, Very-Merciful.” (49:12)

Hazrat Thanvi (may Allah Ta'ala bless him) said;   “It has been narrated in a Hadith that if you hear that a mountain has moved from its place then accept it, but if you hear about a person that his internal attributes have changed then do not accept it. This tells us that with Riyazat (sustained effort) a person's internal attributes do not subside totally, they just become attenuated.”    What it means is that in the Hadith it has been negated that if you hear that a person's anger has subsided completely, do not accept it, because a person's internal attributes do not change completely. However, through Riyazat (sustained effort) and Suhbat (companionship) this anger can be brought under control. Then a person doesn't get angry all the time. He may get angry but only in situations where Shariah permits him to get angry, and even in that anger he does not cross limits set by Shariah. 

Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi (may Allah Ta'ala have mercy on him) said,   “The crux of Tasawwuf is that when a person is finding it difficult to perform a commandment of Shariah because of a lack of motivation, he should fight that lack of motivation to obey that commandment, and when a person is finding it difficult to resist temptations to commit a sin because of lack of motivation, then he should fight that lack of motivation to refrain from that sin. This is what gives rise to a closer relationship with Allah, this is what makes that relationship stronger, and this is what sustains it.”

Hazrat Thanvi (may Allah Ta'ala have mercy on him) further used to say that the aim of treating bad moral values is not to get rid of them completely, as many of these are natural instincts and it is not possible to do so. The idea is to keep opposing them through one's thoughts and behaviours so much that they become so weak as if they do not exist anymore. This process of enhancing and further developing good moral values, and weakening and attenuating bad moral values, is called Tazkiyah and this is the primary goal of Tasawwuf.

Saad Usmani, MD, MBA, FACP, Chief of the Myeloma Service at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, joins Chadi Nabhan, MD, MBA, FACP, on The HemOnc Pulse to chat about the latest research in multiple myeloma from the 65th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition. Dr. Usmani shares insights on the evolution in myeloma treatment since he first started practicing in the hematologic oncology space. He also reflects on the Perseus and IsKia trials, which were presented at ASH 2023.

In this part 8 of Experiments that changed fire science series we revisit Cardington (previously covered in part 2 - https://www.firescienceshow.com/078-experiments-that-changed-fire-science-pt-2-bre-cardington-with-tom-lennon/), but this time from the perspective of modeling the structure. My guest prof. Asif Usmani of the HK PolyU takes us on how simplifying the model led them to some fundamental discoveries on the thermo-mechanical response of structures to fires.We discuss material properties and perhaps their overestimated role in structural modelling. We go into membrane actions and the role of restraints in shaping the response of beams and slabs to thermal loads. And Asif explains to me what this means at a scale of a building frame. Some truly remarkable insights - things that today are perhaps obvious to any structural engineer, but at that time were an unknown fire behaviour. Here are some links to the papers related to today's episode:Cardingtonhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0379711201000376https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0143974X01000049https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0379711204000116WTChttps://era.ed.ac.uk/handle/1842/1562OpenSeeshttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10694-021-01184-0https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Xu-Dai-4/publication/283796522_OpenSees-based_integrated_tool_for_modelling_structures_in_fire/links/5647a6b108ae451880ac4f18/OpenSees-based-integrated-tool-for-modelling-structures-in-fire.pdfPicture credit: British Steel, after "Newman G, Robinson JT and Bailey CG, Fire safe design: A new approach to multi-storey steel-framed buildings, The Steel Construction Institute, Berkshire, 2006" Accessed through:  https://www.researchgate.net/publication/303531122_Shear_panel_component_in_the_vicinity_of_beam-column_connections_in_fire [accessed Dec 06 2023].

Is Thomas Piketty the world's most famous economic historian ? A superstar enemy of plutocratic capitalism who wrote a pathbreaking bestseller, Capital in the 21st Century? Or simply a debonair and generous French intellectual happy to talk redistributive justice? Join this 2020 conversation with John and Adaner Usmani (star of RTB's episode 44: Racism as idea, Racism as Power Relation) to find out. Why did we invite him? John thinks nobody is better than Piketty at mapping and explaining the nature and origin of the glaring and growing inequality that everywhere defines wealth distribution in the 21st century—both between societies and within them. His recent magnum opus, Capital and Ideology. ask what sorts of stories societies (and individuals within those societies) tell themselves so as to tolerate such inequality—and the poverty and misery it produces. Or even to see that inequality as part of the natural order of things. Why did he accept our invitation? A mystery, but who are we to look a gift economist in the mouth? Mentioned in the Episode Philip Larkin, “Why aren't they screaming?” (from the poem “The Old Fools”) Bonus: Here is John's question about his favorite writer, the one Adaner teased him for not asking: “Mr. Piketty, you are interested in hinge points where people cease being captivated by one ideology and begin seeing differently (might one also say, begin being captivated by another ideology?) In 2014, Ursula le Guin said: ‘We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.‘ Can I ask how that resonates with your argument about the rapid changeability of economic paradigms–and moral paradigms for justifying inequality–in Capital and Ideology? “ Read transcript here Learn more about your ad choices.

This Surah has 11 verses. It takes its name from verse 1: “وَالضُّحَىٰ” (By the morning brightness) where the word “الضحى” meaning “The Morning Brightness” appears. This Surah was revealed in Mecca most probably during the early days of Muhammad's proclamation of his prophethood, and most likely was among the first ten surahs to be revealed. This Surah addressed to Prophet Muhammad and assures him that his Lord had not forgotten him. As discussed in Surah Muddathir, history, ahadith and traditions tell us that the first revelation upon Muhammad was the first five verses of Surah Alaq but than there was a long interval and revelation stopped. This caused much pain and grief to the Prophet. So much so that he tried to reach at the top of the hill to throw himself down, but just when he tried to do so Angel Gabriel appeared and told him that he truly was a Prophet of God and the first experience of revelation was real and not his doubt or his mind's creation. Traditions tell that this was same sort of interval when for a period of time, the revelations stopped. The unbelievers mocked Prophet Muhammad saying that “Muhammad's Lord has abandoned him.” It is recorded in various traditions in Bukhari, Muslim and also by Ahmed bin Hanbal that there was a long interval and Angel Jibril was slow in coming to the Prophet of God PBUH. So the idolaters said, “Muhammad's Lord has abandoned him.” Thus Allah revealed, وَٱلضُّحَىٰ • وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ • مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ By the forenoon. By the night when it darkens. Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you]. On the explanation of “وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ” “And the Hereafter is better for you than the first” It applies on everything and every phase of time of Prophet Muhammad. History proved this verse was a miracle as every next moment for Prophet is this world was better than previous in terms of increase in his followers as well as spreading of message and dominance of Muslims over land and area. Then it also applies similarly to the worldly life of Prophet and hereafter. That's why Prophet was so keen of going from this world that when on his death The Angel of Death told him that Allah Subhan Taalah had given him choice of remaining in this life forever and then going to Paradise or moving on to the company of Allah, he chose that which is with Allah over this world Ahmad bin Hanbal, Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah recorded a narration from Abdullah bin Masud who said, “The Prophet of God PBUH was lying down on a straw rug, and it left marks on his side. Then when he woke up, he began to rub his side. So I said, O Prophet of God PBUH, will you allow us to spread something soft over this straw rug. He replied, مَالِي وَلِلدُّنْيَا، إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الدُّنْيَا كَرَاكِبٍ ظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا I have nothing to do with this world. The parable of me and this world is like a rider who rests in the shade of a tree, then he passes on and leaves it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wow-be-podcast/message

Guest: Dr. G. Nahid Usmani Part 2 Dr. Usmani, a Pakistani-born physician, is dedicated to improving medical education in Pakistan. She said her mother inspired her to pursue a career in medicine. Her mother came from a small town in Pakistan, dreamed of a modern college education and became a member of Pakistan's first class of medical graduates. Usmani came to the United States after graduating in 1980 from medical school in Pakistan, where she grew up. She had a fellowship at New York's prestigious Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and joined UMass in 1999. "It was the warmest, most inviting place I've ever worked," Usmani said of UMass. Usmani followed her mother, Amina, a primary care physician, into medicine, and told a story of a girl who was rebellious from a young age, just like her mother. "My mom was a feminist before there were feminists," said Usmani, one of six children. "She raised her daughters to be independent." When Usmani landed in New York, she said she found the United States to be exactly as she wanted it. She was finally free from objectification of women back at home and able to pursue what she felt was anything she wanted. Her father gave her permission to marry the Harvard student she met only if she first took a qualifying exam for medical school in the U.S. "If someone says I can't do something, I have to do it," she said. For Usmani, she founded the New England chapter of the Association of Physicians of Pakistani Descent of North America. There are an estimated 18,000 to 20,000 such doctors in the United States, Usmani said, and she will lead them as the president-elect of the national group. Usmani has traveled back to Pakistan on a few occasions to help medical students like her. Those trips could be a reminder of what she left behind, with a bomb blast hitting her hospital once and killing one of her patients. She said much of her drive professionally comes from wanting to prove herself and her fellow Pakistanis in the years after the Sept. 11 attacks, when they could be looked at more suspiciously. "I needed to establish a professional identity in this country," she said. -------------------------------------------------------------------------Who is the founder & Owner of LightupwithShua Podcast and LUWS ACADEMY LLC ? visit: lightupwithshua.com I am a student of knowledge of multiple disciplines, a mentor, and an intercultural & Interfaith practitioner, who wants to help heal and solve problems by bringing awareness for conscious living and conscious parenting to people with flexible mindset.
