Talk:Neuroregeneration

This
This article was created May, 2007 by Parveen Memarzadeh as part of a Directed Reading Course for the Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The project supervisor was Prof. Steve M. Potter http://neuro.gatech.edu. This article is accompanied by a companion article, Chronic Electrode Implants http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_Electrode_Implants, by another Biomedical Engineering senior, Stephen Ryan.

Merger
Hi, this article is pretty much the same scope and content as nerve regeneration. They are pretty much the same topic, right? I think they should be merged then a redirect Neuroregeneration->Nerve regeneration. Right now we've got a lot of advanced information in Neuroregeneration which isnt in Nerve regeneration, so we should try and salvage that. Snellios (talk) 10:05, 15 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Well I've merged all the information in from neurodegeneration. The 'further reading' section still needs to be included, it's listed below. If anyone gets round to it before me, feel free. This article needs a def cleanup and rewrite too.

Nerve regeneration → Neuroregeneration &mdash; Past merge of the two articles kept the title of the more specific topic, a subset of the other. A very short Talk:Neuroregeneration is blocking a simple move. MilFlyboy (talk) 00:15, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Technically "nerve" regeneration is more specific than "neuro"regeneration and in this case too specific. Neurons only form "nerves" in the peripheral nervous system. In the central they form "tracts". So at least from the basic science side (i.e. neuroscience--not neurology), an article about nerve regeneration shouldn't have a subsection on regrowth within the CNS. It's possible "nerve regeneration" is used as the umbrella term in neurology, but if it is, it's probably considered synonymous with "neuroregeneration". So the current redirect is consistent either only with clinical use or with neither basic nor clinical. If it were reversed, however, it'd be consistent with both basic and clinical usage. (In fact, I think I'll just be bold here and reverse it.) If in the future the PNS section became developed enough to warrant its own full article, it would makes sense to call that article "Nerve regeneration" and put at the top a notice like "This article is about regeneration of neural tissue in the peripheral nervous system. For regeneration of neural tissue in general or in the central nervous system, see Neuroregeneration". MilFlyboy (talk) 23:34, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Oppose Current title has 6x more Google hits and as a general-audience encyclopedia, we should avoid unnecessarily technical terms. I would normally support so as to match the lede, but I'm guessing someone moved it to its present title for reasons like those I mentioned. --Cybercobra (talk) 02:29, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Glancing through the references listed in the article suggests that "Neuroregeneration" may be the most common name... I think that maybe we should bow to the apparent experts, in this case, and allow this move. It looks like someone copy/paste moved the article in the past as well, so I'm somewhat uncertain what should be done about that... one or the other article probably ought to be deleted. — V = I * R  (talk) 16:07, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Discussion of Nogo in this article
Nogo is only discussed as an inhibitor of remyelination. It is also an inhibitor of neurite outgrowth. Anti-bodies to this protein are currently in phase II trials for SCI around the world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.80.44.45 (talk) 04:07, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Added to the article on 25 January 2012 by

This article is full of speculation that has been proven untrue starting in about 1997. Several Articles have been published both by the NIH through the at. Library of Medecine, I wrote a thesis used for attain my degree in 2003 on Adult/Embryonic stem cells and their use in treating various disorders both neurological and others previously thought incurable. Also if the appropriate cellular environment is given to any cell you can cause adult stem migration/proliferation to occur replacing an previously supposed "permanent," damage. I'm not a neurologist yet, by my knowledge and understanding of the brain and how it works has been learned through extensive first hand experiences. All I'm saying is anyone that makes claims such as several in the article below is either foolish like an unknowing child, or simply has their education stuck in the past.

Prevalence of nerve injury?
"Nervous system injuries affect over 90,000 people every year.[2] It is estimated that spinal cord injuries alone affect 10,000 each year.[3] "

Is this worldwide? (if so, it doesn't sound like much), or just in some particular country (I would guess USA)? Either way, it should be stated explicitly - otherwise, the figures are useless.
