Stem Cell Therapy and Tumors

An article recent researchers medical Israel describes For a boy developed tumors brain and spine four years receiving cells fœtales therapy for genetic rare.

The case was reported by Ninette Amariglio and Gideon Rechavi of the Sheba Medical Center, Tel Aviv, and his colleagues in the February 17 issue of open access general medical journal PLoS Medicine.

Most body cells very différenciés eg brain and spinal have two types cells neurons transmitting electrical and glia support and protect. If these highly specialized cells are damaged or diseased, they can not be replaced.

Scientists believe cells neurales (undifferentiated master, cells who potential become one cell types brain) may answer to manufacturing new neurons replacing those damaged by stroke, trauma and degenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease.

Critics therapy cells strains and therapy cells embryonic particularly say not only morally debatable but due risk cancer (cells reassortment multiplying Similarly that cells tumorales) and because virus used therapies unpredictable may develop in body recipient.

In this cases boy, now aged 17 was treated cells strains fœtales therapy 2001 another clinical Moscow and four years images showed he excrescences abnormal on his brain and cord spial.

Tumors benign are effect rare therapy cells fetal says author which suggèrent not research therapies using cells embryonic must cease but than biology underlying particularly their safety must be further investigated.

Health systems

60 years ago, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights has laid the foundations for the right to better health. This right is at the heart of the establishment of equitable health systems. We identify some of the rights to health, characteristics of health systems as a national health plan, and has 72 indicators that reflect some of these characteristics. We collect data on global indicators for 194 countries and data from Ecuador, Mozambique, Peru, Romania and Sweden. Overall, the data are not available for 18 indicators for all countries, which suggests that organizations that receive such data, insufficient attention to the right to health, characteristics of health systems. Where available, indicators show that health systems must be improved to better achieve the right to health. We provide recommendations for governments, international agencies, civil society organizations and other institutions and suggest that these indicators and data, even if not perfect, providing a basis for monitoring systems health and the progressive realization of the right to health. Right to health are not only good governance, justice, or humanity, they are obligations under the law of human rights.

Time of Prostate Cancer

I remember those few hours in the hospital room after surgery for prostate cancer July of my last: the thicket of plastic IV tubes, legs wrists huffing and chuffing to avoid blood clots, my nagging incision packed with gauze. But more importantly, I remember peering through the post-operative haze to see my wife, Deb, sitting, smiling at me.

These days, I embody the “disease” of the wedding vows that Deb and I took in 1981. Since last April, we learned that I have prostate cancer, I removed my prostate, discovered that the cancer was extremely aggressive, the subject of a session of 33 courses for graduation from the finish and I ‘m hormonal.Now, I’m not quite what you call “the catch”. I wear men intermittent incontinence pads, I am a bazaar scars, and have not had an erection in seven months. Most nights, I’m in bed by 10. The hormone Lupron shots, which suppress testosterone, which can fuel prostate cancer, have sent my libido is lower than the stock market, my shrunken testicles, and gives me hot flashes so hard that I sweat outside when it’s 20 degrees and snow.Although Deb has taught me that love is in the details. Humid professions of eternal love and tear stained sonnets are all very well, but they can not compete with the love of the countryside Deb help me change my catheter and drainage bags a day when I came to the hospital.
