Blood vessel injury was found to release intracellular pools of protein
D-aspartyl/L-isoaspartyl carboxyl methyltransferase (PIMT) into the extracellular
milieu, where it became trapped. Trapped PIMT was able to utilize radiolabeled
S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) introduced into the circulation to methylate
blood vessel proteins containing altered aspartyl residues specifically at the site
of...
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been applied as a hemostatic agent since the 1970s, and a potent source of autologous growth factors since the 1990s. PRP is rich in growth factors such as platelet derived growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), fibroblast growth factor (FGF)...

National statistics indicate that over ten thousand persons
each year become disabled from spinal cord-injury. The need for
research in this area is evident.
The objectives of this study were:
1. To determine any relationship between selected attitudes
and activity levels with self-concept;
2. To identify certain demographic variables that...
This investigation was conducted to determine the effectiveness of Personal Achievement Skills (PAS), a structured group psychotherapy approach, on the productivity, social functioning, self-esteem, locus of control, and life satisfaction of individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury. Subjects for the study were recruited through disability advocacy organizations, state disability service...
