Hourly neurologic assessments for traumatic brain injury in the ICU.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:It is difficult for the treatment of neurologic tumors with current therapies, including glioma. Despite the advances in cancer therapeutics, the outcomes in these patients remain poor and, therefore, new modalities are required. Recent findings have demonstrated that human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal st...
