Expression of smooth muscle proteins in cavernous and arteriovenous malformations.

abstract：:Long-term epidemiological studies indicate that environmental factors play a causative role in high-incidence amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and parkinsonism-dementia (PD) in the western Pacific. An increased risk for disease is acquired in youth and remains for life. The low concentrations of calcium and magnesi...
