Always good to report some excellent news even if there is some difficulty in understanding the mechanisms converted. Always on Technology Review:
Although victims of stroke and traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries
sometimes recover through rehabilitation, they often have permanent
disabilities, in part, because scar tissue and regulatory chemicals in
the brain slow nerve growth, preventing nerve tissue from repairing
itself. Now a treatment that has restored lost vision in lab animals
appears to overcome these obstacles, allowing a mass of nerve cells to
regrow after being cut.
Anything that cuts the possible of disablement, especially in the elderly, contributes to the development of health expectancy, and its extension.
