Stem cell injections reduce scarring during bypass surgery and possibly increase survival of patients with surgery

Quote

11 patients were injected with stem cells during bypass surgery. The stem cells injected into their hearts caused a 40% reduction in the size of scarred tissue. Such scarring occurs during a cardiac event such as a heart attack, and can increase the chances of further heart failure. The scarring was previously thought to be permanent and irreversible.

utterly amazing. The quality of life and the chances of long term survival is what is most impressive.

I had it done for my lower spine and it did nothing for me a few years ago.
