MANILA The stem cells used in some anti-aging medical procedures here were harvested not from recipients themselves or donors but from elective abortion of human babies abroad, the Philippine Society for Stem Cell Medicine (PSSCM) warned.

PSSCM spokesperson Dr. Leo Olarte said that in some procedures, the sources of the stem cells are babies and even the egg cells of women.

This practice poses ethical and moral questions, he said.

With this in mind and realizing that we can consider this as exploitation of other human beings for personal benefit, we ask ourselves if this is an ethical and moral medical procedure, he said.

Olarte said the entry of these stem cells in the country must be stopped.

We cannot stand by and merely watch how they exploit people in poverty just to profit while allowing others who are economically well off to benefit from this, he added.

In countries like the Ukraine, Switzerland, Russia, and even Malaysia, harvesting human fetuses for stem cell transplant has become so prevalent that even normal healthy babies are being used to generate the cells that are supposed to make older people look and feel younger, he said.

Authorities Warn Against Anti-Aging Procedures Using Human Stem Cells

Posted on by

MANILA, Philippines --- The Philippine Society for Stem Cell Medicine (PSSCM) yesterday warned against anti-aging procedures and medical treatments that use stem cell harvested from human fetuses and even from egg cells of women.

Dr. Leo Olarte, PSSCM spokesperson, released a statement over the weekend to address some "alarming number of cases" in which stem cells used for anti-aging and medical treatments were actually gathered from babies and egg cells.

Olarte said the local medical community was alarmed when he reported what he learned from a recent scientific forum in the United States that centered on the issue of exploitation of humans for "commercial and economic purposes."

The PSSCM official, who is also the vice president of the Philippine Medical Association (PMA), said that in countries like Ukraine, Switzerland, Russia and even Malaysia, harvesting stem cells from human fetuses has become quite common that even normal and healthy babies are being used for harvesting.

This practice is known as allogenic sourced-out stem cells or cells that come from a matched related or unrelated donor.

Olarte called on the Department of Health (DOH) to check whether or not this practice is already prevalent in the country especially hearing reports that a Malaysian pharmaceutical group has already begun offering human-derived allogenic stem cells to several local doctors, including dermatologists and cosmetologists.

The stem cells were said to be sourced from Ukraine and Russia.

"With this in mind and realizing that we can consider this as exploitation of other human beings for personal benefit, we ask ourselves if this is an ethical and moral medical procedure," Olarte said.

"I am also calling on the Catholic Church to unite with us. We must put an end to this once and for all before it overwhelms us. We should prevent the entry of human-derived allogenic stem cells from aborted fetuses which are being exported to the Philippines today," he added.

First ever double stem cell therapy procedure to be performed by Branchburg veterinarian

Posted on by

Now, thanks to participating veterinarians like Dr. Karen Derfuss, DVM, from Branchburg Animal Hospital, who will be conducting a new double stem cell therapy procedure on Tuesday, Feb. 26, and the procedure itself, developed by MediVet America, a new kind of treatment is available for dogs, Auggie and Chloe, and other beloved pets in the Branchburg area.

This new procedure marks a major milestone in regenerative veterinary medicine, said MediVet-America spokesman, Dr. Mike Hutchinson, D.V.M., a leading practitioner in stem cell therapy who has performed more than 400 adipose-derived stem cell treatments on dogs and cats. MediVets superior results made me a believer, and Im excited to share this news with my colleagues.

The procedure uses adult animal stem cell technology and the bodys own regenerative healing power. No embryonic stem cells are used. MediVets kit and equipment enable veterinarians to remove a sample of fat from the pet, separate stem cells from the fat, then activate and inject the cells into the affected area. The entire procedure is all done in-clinic and on the same day.

Within about one month, most animals can be removed from pain and anti-inflammatory drugs. Results show animals that had been unable to climb stairs or jump, now are walking, running and playing.

MediVet is a global leader in veterinary science, with over 1,000 clinics practicing this incredible technology in the US, Mexico, Canada and 28 other countries

About the two dogs:

Auggie is a nine year old loving beagle and a Fathers Day Gift for dad. He is suffering from hip dysplasia, which is an abnormal formation of the hip socket that, in its more severe form, can eventually cause crippling lameness and painful arthritis of the joints. Derfuss is the only doctor in the area who has been certified by MediVet America to perform this double procedure. The stem cell procedure is an affordable and non-invasive alternative to FHO (femoral head osteopathy) surgery, which was originally planned for Auggie.

Chloe is a beautiful 11 year old golden retriever who suffers from bilateral arthritic hips and long term inflammation issues. It was decided to use this new technology to treat Chloes ailments as an alternative to expensive and invasive hip replacement surgery.

Matrix Nutrition have launched a product that combats the trinity problems that hinder weight loss in winter

(PRWEB UK) 18 February 2013

As well as this, many weight gainers suffer from the effects of SAD, the seasonal affective disorder that affects over ten per cent of the population. Symptoms can include an increase in appetite, lethargy and depression the trinity of problems that guarantee weight gain.

This new product however is extra strong in order to give that boost to help dieters and weight trainers lose weight, however Matrix Nutrition have not stopped there.

To help combat the trinity of lethargy, hunger and depression, their new fat burners incorporate high concentrations of natural vitamins and minerals that support the bodys own natural defences and increase energy lift moods, supress hunger and remove toxins from the body.

These natural ingredients include Acia Berry which is known as the new super food as it reduces bloating, removes toxins and promotes cardiac health.

The other active ingredient is Side Cordifolia which contains real ephedrine Alkaloids which are known for promoting weight loss. Sida Cordifolia is also well documented to provide the user with extra energy keeping them more awake, alert and motivated.

The other ingredient is green tea, and Matrix Nutrition claim they use only the best, as Adam Lowther the founder explains, Its well know that green tea is one of the best fat burning products on the market but Matrix Nutrition have taken this to new levels with a massive 1,500mg pure ingredient per tablet. The difference in grades comes down to the amount of EGCGs contained in the green tea. To put it simply, the more EGCG, the more active the ingredient. In weight loss industry new ingredients seem to be invented every day but green tea has stay fast simply because it works! Our new accelerated fat burners, Zepherine are quickly becoming the UK no.1 choice for losing weight."

Matrix provides effective sport supplements at an affordable price. While it is common knowledge the price of raw materials within the nutrition industry is rising (i.e. whey protein) they do their best to ensure Matrix Nutritions products are some off the most affordable on the market. While other companies may take advantage of these rising costs to inflate their prices even more Matrix will not.

Dimensionality Reduction From Several Angles – Video

Dimensionality Reduction From Several Angles
Tamara Munzner, Professor, Department of Computer Science, University of British Columbia Presents... Dimensionality Reduction From Several Angles I will present five past and current projects that attack the problem of dimensionality reduction (DR) from quite different methodological angles. Two projects nicely fit into the usual mold of technique-driven work on algorithms for DR. Glimmer is a multilevel multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm that exploits the GPU. Glint is a new MDS framework that achieves high performance on costly distance functions. In contrast, the DimStiller project is a foray into systems rather than algorithms, built around the idea of "DR for the rest of us". It is a toolkit for DR that provides local and global guidance to users who may not be experts in the mathematics of high-dimensional data analysis. A third kind of project combines evaluation and the creation of taxonomies. Our recent taxonomy of visual cluster separation factors arose from the systematic qualitative examination of over 800 scatterplots of dimensionally reduced data, and includes an analysis of the reasons for failure of previous cluster separation metrics. I will also discuss the current work of a task taxonomy that is grounded in a two-year qualitative study of high-dimensional data analysts in many domains, to discover how the use of DR "in the wild" does and does not match up with the assumptions that underlie previous algorithmic work. Tamara Munzner is a professor ...
