A new injectable gel can rebuild worn-out spinal discs instead of just masking the pain.
Doctors working with US company ReGelTec are testing an injectable gel called Hydrafil for people whose spinal discs have worn down with age.
The discs are the cushions between your vertebrae, and as they dry out and flatten, they can cause years of back pain. Hydrafil is injected through a needle as a warm liquid, then firms up at body temperature into a water-rich, rubbery cushion that refills the damaged disc and restores its height.
In a study of 60 patients, average back pain scores fell from 7.3 to 2.1 out of 10 after a year, and disability scores dropped sharply too.
Today, most treatments for worn discs manage symptoms with painkillers, injections or physical therapy, and the last resort is surgery to fuse or replace the disc. A gel that rebuilds the cushion itself could offer something in between.
The early study had no comparison group, and five patients needed a procedure to remove gel that had shifted. A larger trial against a placebo procedure is underway, and the FDA has granted it Breakthrough Device status to speed its review.

GEAD, leach. The Union’s bill for ending slavery arrived in the form of roughly 320,000 white soldiers who died between 1861 and 1865; that invoice has long since been marked paid in full.
Subsequent claims of an unpaid debt overlook the blood already expended to abolish the institution, after which the ledger of legal obligation closed with the Thirteenth Amendment.
Any remaining balance sheet, therefore, reflects not an outstanding account but a historical transaction settled at a cost far higher than any later demand has acknowledged.
In a pretend world, you may have a point. But we aren't pretending. Saving those airmen will require one of two things--the gangs coming to their senses and releasing the hostages, or good guys with guns going to get them and machine gunning everyone involved in the kidnapping. This is how you stop that shit. Idle threats are idle.
🇭🇹🇸🇻 À ceux qui pensent que Nayib Bukele peut intervenir militairement en Haïti à la suite de la «disparition » des quatre militaires salvadoriens, je tiens à rappeler ceci :
La volonté légitime du président salvadorien de sauver ses quatre militaires ne saurait justifier une intervention militaire unilatérale en Haïti, en violation de sa souveraineté nationale.
La lutte contre les gangs ne saurait devenir un prétexte pour contourner le droit international. Toute opération militaire doit s’inscrire dans un cadre juridique clairement établi, conformément au mandat de la Force de répression des gangs (FRG) et aux dispositions de la Charte des Nations unies.
La gravité de la situation sécuritaire en Haïti ne suspend ni le droit international ni la souveraineté du pays.

Trying another Van Halen solo.. Atomic Punk.
Eddie Van Halen made the intro by scraping his palm over the strings through a phaser and delay. 1978.
Here's my shot at the solo 🎸

Said the fat caveman in the back when the wheel was invented. I find it shocking the inability some people have to use something as simple as their own imagination. Here's a simple thought I came up with: crash avoidance systems.
