In Quest of ‘Good’ Medical Classification Systems
Tập 3 - Trang 53-70 - 2011

that three factors underlie this: (1) historical preferences, (2) the rhetorical

Regenerative Medicine: Past and Present
Tập 1 - Trang 11-31 - 2009
Novel therapies resulting from regenerative medicine and tissue engineering
technology may offer new hope for patients with injuries, end-stage organ
failure, degenerative disorders and many other clinical issues. Currently,
patients suffering from diseased and injured organs are treated with
transplanted organs. However, there is a shortage of donor organs that is
worsening yearly as the populati...
