Researchers find brain cell transplants help repair neural damage
(Cell Transplantation Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair) This study aimed at determining whether autografted cells derived from primate cortical gray matter, cultured for one month and re-implanted in the caudate nucleus of dopamine depleted primates, effectively survived and migrated. When transplanted, autologous cells, derived from the most dopamine depleted region of the caudate nucleus, migrated, re-implanted into the right caudate nucleus, and migrated through the corpus callosum to the contralateral striatum. Re-implanted cells survived at rate of 50 percent four months post-implantation.

Teriparatide outperforms alendronate in treating steroid-induced osteoporosis
(Wiley-Blackwell) A recent study determined glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (OP) is now treatable with Teriparatide, a synthetic form of the human parathyroid hormone. Researchers found patients with glucocorticoid-induced OP who were treated with teriparatide for 36 months had a greater increase in bone mineral density and fewer new vertebral fractures than those treated with alendronate. The findings of this study are published in the November issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism, a journal of the American College of Rheumatology.

He promised the audience a preview of a wonderful tool for improving elderly healthcare and independence at home. “You’d better get a close up of this,” he said to the cameraman recording the talk for yesterday’s TED MED conference that is running from October 27 through 30 at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego, Calif. (TED MED stands for technology, entertainment, design.) Dishman, chief strategist and global director of product research, innovation and policy for Intel’s Digital Health Group, pulled out the device: an old-fashioned telephone. [More]
