Stem cell available in Kansas City

Starting on page 5:

In the Kansas City area alone, over
1,500 patients have received treatments
utilizing adult stem cells — at St.
Luke’s Hospital, Children’s Mercy Hospital
and the University of Kansas Medical
Center.
“We’re not interested in controversy
or debate; we’re interested in helping
patients,” said Dr. David Prentice, senior
fellow for life sciences at the Family
Research Council in Washington, D.C.
“Right here in the center of the country,
adult stem-cell treatments are taking
place. It’s critically important people
become aware these adult stem cell
therapies are available now.”

Prentice said the science and research
available support the use of adult
stem cells in numerous treatments.
“They are improving health and saving
lives right now, and people need
to hear that,” said Prentice. “We used
to hear that adult stem cells were very
limited in what they could do, but now
we know that’s old dogma in medical
science. They are available and they do
work.”
On hand at the event were several individuals
from around the country who
have been either cured or treated for
serious diseases such as sickle cell anemia,
systemic scleroderma, spinal cord
injury, and congenital heart failure.
Each person had received revolutionary
treatment using adult stem cells when
all other currently available treatments
had fallen short.

“Not all treatments [using adult stem
cells] are cures, but there is documented
evidence it does improve lives,” said
Prentice.

So, you find something wrong about discussions on adult stem cell treatments? The article is about adult stem cells and they do work as a treatment alternative. Nothing about hearing loss though.
 
It does not mention hearing loss as one of the things being treated.

Would you buy a used stem cell from this man?

Family Research Council

I wouldn't.

He works for a lobbying organization called Family Research Council:

Family Research Council was founded in 1983 with the mission to champion marriage and family as the foundation of civilization, the seedbed of virtue, and the wellspring of society. FRC shapes public debate and formulates public policy that values human life and upholds the institutions of marriage and the family. Believing that God is the author of life, liberty, and the family, FRC promotes the Judeo-Christian worldview as the basis for a just, free, and stable society.

He is not a doctor. He is a lobbyist.
 
Sounds like somebody is trying to say that these adult stem cells stories are bogus and that adult stem cells treatments don't work?
 
That is the man who is quoted in the article posted in the OP. The article is in a Catholic newsletter.

How about a medical, peer-reviewed article, oldbob? Or at least something written by a M.D.?

First, all stem cells are used. second, the post was for information aimed at those who are waiting to go to China to get thier stem cells. Third, why is it when anyone posts on this site anything some people just have to be negative and try to beat it down.( they must be democrats). Last nowhere does it say Doctor Prentice was doing stem cell inplants (or whatever) or that he was/is an MD.

oldbob is a lobbyist?
 
Your answer is non-responsive, oldbob, and that speaks volumes.
 
I found nothing about Hearing Loss. You must got wrong forums. The forum is for hearing aids & cochlear implants. :roll:
 
Botti, oldbob linked to an article in the Catholic newsletter, which quoted the lobbyist. I suspect that oldbob is just another spammer trying to turn a buck here.
 
Also i am pretty sure there was something about NOT posting stuff about stem cell in her cuz this is for ha/ci threads not stem cells?
