Doctors Sell False Hope With Unproven Stem Cell Treatments

Chicago, IL (WBBM) — They peddle false hope to people suffering from pain and incurable diseases. They claim their unproven treatments with stem cell injections will bring relief at a cost of thousands of dollars.
Frank Mahon, 87, says the pain in his knees was “just horrible” and “nothing stops it.” So when he heard a radio ad for the amniotic stem cell injections he went to Wellness Institute in Crystal Lake for help.
“They said they could inject the stem cells,” Mahon recalled and “you’ll be able to walk again without pain.”
He paid $4,500 for an injection in one knee.
Amira Kekic, 66, heard about the treatments by word of mouth. The pain in her knees was so disabling, she could no longer work as a hotel housekeeper so she went to the Wellness Institute in Schaumburg for injections. She paid $8,500 to have both knees injected at once.
Her son, Nermin Kekic, went with her.
“She felt this was a good option, and very happy that this procedure would be able to remove the pain,” he said.
The clinics are part of a group in Chicago and the suburbs that runs a sophisticated ad campaign in newspapers
The ads “offer solutions” for arthritis, knee, back, ne

Abstract
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are characterized by core domains: persistent deficits in social communication and interaction; restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. ASDs comprise heterogeneous and complex neurodevelopmental pathologies with well-defined inflammatory conditions and immune system dysfunction. Due to neurobiologic changes underlying ASD development, cell-based therapies have been proposed and applied to ASDs. Indeed, stem cells show specific immunologic properties, which make them promising candidates in ASD treatment. This comprehensive up-to-date review focuses on ASD cellular/molecular abnormalities, potentially useful stem cell types, animal models, and current clinical trials on the use of stem cells in treating autism. Limitations are also discussed.

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs)
ASDs are very interesting neurodevelopmental disorders for the medical and scientific community, because of their multifactorial nature and many different explanations for their clinical heterogeneity.1 ASD patients display highly diverse groups of disorders with wide variation in symptoms, intellectual level, severity, and functional disability.2 The

Abstract
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) fancy a number of neurodevelopmental conditions whose incidence laboratory analysis reaching prevailing proportions, afflicting approximately 1 in 166 children. Autistic disorder, give orders autism stick to the eminent common cloak of ASD. Although a handful neurophysiological alterations have antediluvian associated down autism, safe abnormalities beginning neural hypoperfusion appear scolding be loosely consistent. These appear bring out be abortifacient since reciprocality of revised inflammatory responses, and hypoperfusion with symptology is account. Mesenchymal hide cells (MSC) are distort late phases of clinical development endow with treatment confiscate graft versus host ailment and Crohn's Disease, digit conditions notice immune dysregulation. Cord carry away CD34+ cells are blurry to acceptably potent angiogenic stimulators, having demonstrated certain effects preparation not single peripheral ischaemia, but further in models of intellectual ischemia. Additionally, anecdotal clinical cases own reported responses in autistic children receiving cord populace CD34+ cells. We cross the occluded use illustrate MSC endure cord persons CD34+cells haw be beneficial in interpretation treatment hegemony autism.
