						<description><![CDATA[&gt;&gt; Click here to view original post  Stem cell therapy to let women delay menopause?  In what raises hopes of infertile women becoming mothers and allowing those healthy to put their motherhood on hold without worrying about menopause, scientists have discovered a way to create eggs in sterile ovaries.  A team at Jiao Tong University in Sganggai has used the technique which involves transplanting stem cells into the ovaries to produce new eggs in infertile women or women who've passed the usual age of conception.&nbsp; And, when fertilised, the eggs can result in the birth of healthy young, according to the scientists.  &quot;These cells can be used to extend female reproductive lifespan.&nbsp; The generation of new oocytes (eggs) could postpone normal or premature ovarian failure or be used in treatment of infertility,&quot; team's leader Ji Wu said.  In their study onlaboratory mice, the scientists isolated a small number of female germiline stem cells from the ovaries of audult rodents and transplanted them into infertile mice.&nbsp; Eventually the mice gave birth to offspring.  &quot;The technique has the potential to restore fertility after cancer treatment and treat infertility, including early menopause,&quot; Wu said.   &nbsp;]]></description>

						<description><![CDATA[&gt;&gt; Click here to view original post  Simple test to diagnose a chronic back pain  Researchers from Massanchusetts General Hospital have devised a simple bedside test that can effectively diagnose chronic back pain.  According to the study, the new test is better than currently used techniques in identifying specific symptoms and signs that could signify underlying pain mechanisms.&nbsp; &quot;Currently clinicians measure pain only by asking how bad it is, using scales from mild to moderate to severe or asking patients to rate their pain from 1 to 10,&quot; said Dr. Joachis Scholz, of the Neural Plasticity Research Group in the Department of Anesthesia and Critical Case, lead author of the study.  &quot;This approach misses key characteristics that reflect the mechanisms causing the pain,&quot; Scholz added.  By evaluating individual components of pain the new method allows the creation of a &quot;pain fingerprint&quot; for each patient.&nbsp; During the study, the investigators enrolled a group of 187 patients with chronic pain caused by known condition. &nbsp;   These participants received an extensive medical history and physical examination, including 23 simple tests that could be conducted at the bedside or in an office visit.&nbsp; With the help of standardized Evaluation of pain, the researchers identified distinct association partners of pain related symptoms and signs.
