Implantation of encapsulated glial line-derived neurotrophic factor-secreting cells prevents long-lasting learning impairment following neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain insult in rats

Article Abstract:

The effect of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factors on long-term learning and memory impairment and morphological changes up to 18 weeks after hypoxic-ischemic stress in neonatal rats was examined. It was concluded that glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor treatment is effective in reducing brain damage as well as inhibiting learning and memory impairment, following hypoxic-ischemic insult in neonatal rats.

Sacrocolpopexy for vault prolapse and rectocele: Do concomitant Burch colposuspension and perineal mesh detachment affect the outcome?

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to compare the effect of abdominal sacrocolpopexy with posterior Teflon mesh interposition with and without concomitant Burch colposuspension on the posterior compartment. The conclusion was that concomitant Burch colposuspension did not seem to affect the posterior compartment adversely in small case series.
