Robot-mediated and clinical scales evaluation after upper limb botulinum toxin type A injection in children with hemiplegia.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: The aim of this pilot study was to examine changes in different aspects of impairment, including spasticity in the upper limbs, of hemiplegic children following botulinum toxin type A intervention. Progress was assessed using standard ... Read more...

Comparison of gene delivery techniques for therapeutic angiogenesis ultrasound-mediated destruction of carrier microbubbles versus direct intramuscular injection.

25 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVES: This study was designed to compare the efficacy of angiogenic gene delivery by ultrasound-mediated (UM) destruction of intravenous carrier microbubbles to direct intramuscular (IM) injections. BACKGROUND: Current trials of gene therapy ... Read more...

Rapid immunity to vaccination with woodchuck hepatitis virus surface antigen using cationic liposome-DNA complexes as adjuvant.

29 Sep 2009 Complexes of cationic liposomes and non-coding DNA (CLDC) have shown promise as vaccine adjuvant. Using the woodchuck animal model of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the immunogenic effects of CLDC were evaluated following vaccination with three ... Read more...
