Another study published in\u00a0STEM CELLS TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE <\/em>shows\u00a0that autologous umbilical cord blood can improve motor function in young children with cerebral palsy.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Jessica M. Sun of Duke University Medical Center and her colleagues conducted this Phase II trial using a single intravenous infusion (placebo) of autologous cord blood. They administered it to 63 children aged 1 to 6 years with cerebral palsy, then followed it with an alternative infusion one year later. At the beginning of the trial and one to two years post-treatment, the childrens’ motor function and brain connectivity were studied.<\/p>\n

To summarise the successful results of the study, the author writes:<\/p>\n

The researchers observed no difference in mean change in Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66) scores at one year between placebo and treated groups, although a dosing effect was identified. At one year after ACB treatment, there were significantly greater increases in GMFM-66 scores, above those predicted by age and severity, among those who received doses \u22652 \u00d7 107<\/sup>\/kg. Additionally, there were significant improvements in Peabody Developmental Motor Scales-2 Gross Motor Quotient scores and normalized brain connectivity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
