What are stem cell therapy’s pros and cons?

Answered by Snigdha Sahai

Advantages

  1. Cord blood banking or stem cell banking is the process of collecting cells from the umbilical cord or placenta and preserving them for future use. It can help you save your child's and family members' lives.
  2. The recipient's body almost accepts it, and there are nearly zero chances of infection.
  3. The stem cell can be developed into multiple kinds of cells and can help to treat various types of health problems.
  4. A stem cell has no impact on a child's birth plan and will create no problems in the future.
  5. You can donate stem cells to hospitals as it can save people's lives, and it is usually free.

Disadvantages

  1. Storing stem cells is a bit hard, and their maintenance of them is also an expensive process.
  2. Once the stem cell is transferred to the person, no more cells can be harvested from that source.
  3. Stem cell preservation demands more investment to unite than bone marrow transfers.
  4. Not every human is eligible for donating their cells as the donation depends upon various factors such as their health issues.

Can stem cell cure high blood pressure?

Male | 48

So far stem cell therapy is not an established cure for high blood pressure. The evidence seems to suggest that stem cells may potentially have applications in the area of cardiovascular health and yet, the precise mechanisms involved as well as how effective it is could be used when treating hypertension are not fully understood. Current high blood pressure treatments are mainly through lifestyle changes and drugs to control the condition. It is important to discuss this matter with medical specialists in order to look at more verified and proven methods of regulating blood pressure, as the use of stem cells for managing it is not very advanced yet.

60 days after bone marrow transplant, what to expect?

Male | 43

Sixty days after a bone marrow transplant, you can expect several changes and milestones. The initial weeks are critical for monitoring engraftment, where the transplanted cells start producing new blood cells. Blood counts are closely monitored to assess recovery and potential complications. During this period, patients often continue with strict infection control measures, and immunosuppressive medications may be adjusted based on the individual's response. Regular follow-up appointments and ongoing support from the medical team are essential during this crucial phase of post-transplant recovery.

Dear Sir or madam, i have a so called polyneuropathie peripher and autonom (alkohol) since several years. Expecially my organs are not working as they did before. Can your method of cellstransplantation/infusion can help me? I am glad to hear from you. Best reagards Stefan Jungbeck

Male | 42

I am grateful for the information you provided on your medical issue. Peripheral and autonomic polyneuropathy, which is frequently connected to the use of alcohol, may cause a wide range of symptoms, including weakness, numbness, and organ dysfunction. Interestingly, while cell transplantation or infusion does have some effects in the case of a few illnesses, the results of treatment with them in your case would need to be properly studied by a health specialist. It is my suggestion to address the conditions that trouble you with the help of a doctor who can give you personalized advice and treatment alternatives according to your situation.

Life expectancy after stem cell transplant?

Female | 41

Life after the stem cell transplant also varies greatly and depends on many factors such as medical condition prior to the operation, age of patient, general health status before when during and after it was done with good results. Stem cell transplants are capable of leading to very long-standing remission or even cure for a few diseases, mainly hematological malignancies in such situations. However, implantation as a procedure itself is associated with risks and complications; results vary for each individual. First and foremost, close monitoring by well-trained doctors assisting in post transplant care as well as regular follow up is essential for optimizing long term outcomes. It is necessary to address peculiar expectations and prognosis with your healthcare works, as they can offer the most precise information considering specific conditions.

Why is esr raised in multiple myeloma?

Female | 30

The disease process of multiple myeloma has several factors that cause elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate ESR. First of all, abnormal proteins produced by myeloma cells or rather immunoglobulins and their components may cause the increase in blood viscosity which leads to an increased ESR. Myeloma cells can cause inflammation and increase the secretion of some proteins that influence sedimentation rate. The effect of the disease on marrow function, and in particular its overproduction with plasma cells may also impact ESR levels. Elevated levels of the ESR are quite general in pricing an infection and can act as a predictor to determine how much myeloma-related irregularities is presently affecting one’s body. Monitoring of ESR regularly with other clinical parameters helps to evaluate disease progression and the patient’s response to treatment in multiple myeloma.
