(MENAFNEditorial) (EMAILWIRE.COM, February 02, 2014 ) Los Angeles HeartCell (http://www.heartcell.org), a free informational resource guide for cardiac cell therapy, has launched an online glossary to assist patients to understand the technical information of How stem cells work. This includes terminology that a practitioner may take for granted, but which must be cleared up specifically by a patient who wishes to really understand the treatment which may benefit him
The glossary, on the web at http://www.heartcell.org/what-is-a-stem-cell/stem-cell-terms/, explains the key definitions of stem cell treatment and covers such things as the Different types of stem cells, which of these are actually used in cardiac cell therapy, and Where are stem cells found in the body. Although not an exhaustive rundown of all technical terminology in the whole field, the glossary covers the most important definitions and enables readers to better understand more technical descriptions they may wish to read
Two other pages on HeartCell.org complement the basic understanding imparted by the glossary: a description of the history of stem cell research and therapy, and an article specifically addressed to the common confusion between embryonic stem cell research and adult stem cell therapy. (Adult stem cell therapy involves no damage to embryos, and has had clinical successes demonstrated for some applications, unlike embryonic stem cells.) With this basic knowledge under their belt, patients will be much better informed and more able to make a correct decision about stem cell therapy
Patient testimonials and clinical trials show that stem cell therapy can make improvements in cases where traditional medicine has only limited effects, says the founder of HeartCell.org. It is our intent to make this field familiar to heart disease patients so they can make informed decisions and reap the benefits available through trial-tested cellular procedures. We stand ready to help in your search for information or recommended clinics
