Health Zeal - July 2009

In heart failure patients, gastrointestinal system and liver are congested with edema formation, leading to loss of appetite and vomiting. Drugs used in the heart failure such as aspirin and digoxin are associated with kidney failure due to decreased output of the heart and electrolyte imbalance due to diuretics can also produce these symptoms. However proper evaluation and correction of cause and appropriate antiemetic drugs can relieve these symptoms.

Types of Stem Cells

July 11th 2009 04:27
There are three types of stem cells.

Toti potent stem cells: These cells multiply into an embryo. This means they grow into whatever they came from. It is these cells that are used in cloning. Dolly, the first cloned sheep in the world was made using this cell.

Pluri potent stem cells: These are very useful in medical treatment. They can multiply and develop into an organ they are injected into. If they are injected into a damaged muscle or tissue, they become that muscle or tissue.

Multi potent stem cells: These cells are very useful in medical treatments. When injected into an organ, they can regenerate and multiply continuously and endlessly. This means they actually create a new organ in place of diseased organ. This too holds good as these cells can be used in any part of the body.
