Prognostic indicators in hemiparetic cerebral palsy.

abstract：:Gene therapy methods have continued to develop rapidly, and many initial limitations that hampered clinical application have been overcome. Thus serious consideration of clinical application of gene therapy is warranted for selected disorders in which the pathogenesis is well defined. Parkinson's disease has been the ...
