Results of our stem cell treatments

The results our patients have achieved by taking our stem cell treatment can be found below. When more results for differing diseases become available, they will be added to this page and to their specific pages.

Please keep in mind that almost all diseases we treat are degenerative. This means that when nothing is done, the health condition will almost certainly deteriorate. Achieving a stable situation -a "no change" result- can be a success in and of itself.


 

ALS Treatment Results


ALS Results (N=32) July 2010 ImageA total number of 32 patients with ALS were treated and returned the post treatment questionnaires.

Improvements were reported in 50% of the patients. Most patients reported improvements in muscle strength (56.3%), sensory function (37.5%) and motor function (30.4%).

Also more than 25% of the patients reported better fine motor skills.

Furthermore, our patients reported improvements in speech (25%), eating (25%), bladder/bowel control (12.5%), mental state (18.8%), breathing (12.5%), and weight control (25%).

Cerebral Palsy Treatment Results


Cerebral Palsy (N=116) July 2010 Image116 patients (more than 90 %) returned the completed evaluation form. Clinical improvements (Figure 1) were reported in most patients (66.4%).

Improvements mainly included increased motor functioning with decreased spasticity, resulting in improved sitting, standing, walking and posture stability, as well as an improvement in mental functions resulting in better communication.

Improvement of speech was mentioned by 28 patients, and a major reduction or even absence of epileptic seizures during the recorded post-treatment period was reported by 11 responders.

More than 90% of all the improvements started within 8 weeks after the application of Autologous Stem Cells.

Diabetes Treatment Results


Diabetes Results (N=50) ImageFollow up statistics from 50 diabetes patients completed in July 2009 show that more than 50% experienced improvements after stem cell therapy.

40% of the patients were insulin dependent (type 1) and 60% were non-insulin dependent (type 2). About 4 of 5 patients were male and the average age was 51 years old.

Approximately 1/3 of insulin dependent patients improved following treatment while about 2/3 of non-insulin dependent patients improved.

Overall, improvements reported included more stable blood glucose levels, lower fasting blood glucose levels, decreased leg pain, lower blood pressure and the elimination of hypoglycemic episodes. Nearly 1 in 4 male patients regained erectile function.

Multiple Sclerosis Treatment Results


MS Results (N=50) July 2010 ImageA total number of 50 patients (14 men and 36 women) with MS were treated and returned the post treatment questionnaires.

The mean age of patients at the time before treatment was almost 48 years. Mean time between treatment and follow up moment was around 5 months.

Improvements were reported in 25 patients, no change in 18 patients and natural progress of the disease in 7 patients.

Most patients reported improvements in muscle strength (68.8%), spasticity of the limbs (78.9%) and better coordination of the limbs (55.6%).

The ability to stand alone and walk better without help was reported in respectively 50% and 25% of the patients with improvements.

Improved vision acuity was reported in 57.1% of the patients with improvements. Enhanced bladder control and bowel control was reported in respectively 47.1% and 28.6%.

Parkinson's Disease Treatment Results


Parkinsons Results (N=75) July 2010 Image75 Patients, nearly 50% of the total cohort, did complete the clinical evaluation forms. Of these patients, 36 reported clinical improvements.

The other patients did not notice any clinical change or did mention natural disease progression.

According to 21 of those patients, their physicians did confirm their improvements; five patients were able to decrease and four patients could even fully discontinue their Parkinson's disease related medication.

Most patients reported a decrease of motor parkinsonism (N=29), including rigidity and tremor, resulting in improved speech (N=24), dexterity (N=23), swallowing (N=20), handwriting (N=20), and stability (N=19). Thirty patients also noticed increased motivation and/or initiative.

Spinal Cord Injury Treatment Results


Spinal Cord Injury Results (N=162) ImageFrom the 184 treated patients with Spinal Cord Injury 162 patients (more than 88%) returned the post treatment questionnaires.

Clinical Improvements were reported in 56.8% of the patients.

Improved bladder and bowel function was reported in 37.7% and 35.7% respectively of the improved patients.

In these patients, also neurogenic pain and muscle spasm improved 52.7% and 50.7% respectively.  In 2 patients, the Baclofen® pump for treatment of spasm could be removed permanently after treatment.

Completed pre- and post-treatment ASIA Score forms could be collected in 25% of the patients (46 cases). After treatment, the mean ASIA motor score increased significantly (p<0.001) with 6.0 points, and the mean ASIA sensory score with more than 11 points (p<0.001). In 4 cases, there was a change in ASIA classification: ASIA-A (complete motor /sensory loss below SCI) to -B (complete motor loss) in 3 cases, and ASIA-C (major motor loss) to -D (minor motor loss) in 1 case. None of these 46 patients did deteriorate during the study.

Stroke Treatment Results


Stroke Results (N=60) July 2010 ImageThe mean age of patients at the time before treatment was almost 50 years and nearly 75% of our patients were male.

Mean time between treatment and follow up moment was about 9 months. Patients reported the first effects seen after stem cell treatment between 8 and 9 weeks. Improvements were reported in 55% of the patients.

Stroke patients as a rule suffered spastic paresis, whether or not with aphasia and hemianopia. Over 40% of the patients reported clinical improvement with both decreased spasticity and paresis, resulting in improved walking (42%), stability (40%), and motor skills (development proximal > distal). Aphasia improved in 39% and hemianopia in 20%.
