There is no established treatment available

MADRID Cheap Enes Kanter Jersey , Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- FC Barcelona plan to have a new football ground with the capacity to hold 105,000 who will be able to enjoy their matches under the comfort of a closable roof.


The news was announced by club spokesman Toni Freixa, who did not say whether the stadium would be constructed on the current site of the Camp Nou or on ground that the club owns closer to the center of the city, however, Freixa did say the ground would not be just a renovation of the current iconic ground.


"For the first time Cheap Patrick Ewing Jersey , the club has the results of its research. The first conclusion is that no decision has yet been made. This is a complex subject made up of many elements, a decision that is vitally important, because it affects the club's future stadium for the next 50 years. We will make a decision in January," he confirmed in a press conference held on Tuesday.


Freixa discussed the choices the club had, saying there were two options: "Construct a new stadium in Diagonal (the main thoroughfare that runs from the north to the south of the city) or completely remodel the current ground Cheap Carmelo Anthony Jersey , which would be the equivalent of building a new stadium."


He said a decision on which of the options the club would take, had still to be made, but insisted the plans were pretty much similar.


"The new stadium will have a capacity of 105,000 and will be covered," he said Cheap New York Knicks Hats , adding the fans would be consulted over the plans, although the study made it clear, "We need to have a new stadium, whether that's on the current site or on a different one."


While he refused to discuss the costs of the project, Freixa insisted the club would: "never consider a project which put the financial stability at risk."


"Both options are viable on a technical Cheap New York Knicks Hoodies , financial and urban level," he said, before giving a major hint that the likely option would be a new city center site given that: "the first team will play all their home games at the current stadium. It won't affect the players or the members."


The news could therefore mean the end of the iconic Camp Nou Stadium, which was opened in 1957 and seen many of the club's most historic moments.


Martino relieved after Barca Cup win


MADRID, Dec. 7 (Xinhua) -- FC Barcelona coach Tata Martino was able to breathe a sigh of relief following his side's 4-1 win away to Cartagena in the first leg of their Copa del Rey tie on Friday night.


Going into the game against a team two categories below them and on the back of two defeats which have set alarm bells ringing Cheap New York Knicks Shirts , Barca fell behind to an early goal, but were able to turn the score around before halftime thanks to goals from Pedro Rodriguez and Cesc Fabrigas.

Our eyes are one of the most valuable sense organs that enable us to see this beautiful and colourful world. Many of us face eye problem at a time or other like itching, blurring or fatigue. Some of the eye problems are minor and goes away easily; however some are serious eye diseases and one of them is Leber鈥檚 Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON). It is the most common inherited genetic disorder that leads to vision loss and mainly affects young males typically between 12 and 30 years of age.


Cause


Leber鈥檚 hereditary optic neuropathy is an inherited optic neuropathy caused due to mutations in the mitochondrial DNA. These mutations cause abnormalities in the structure of proteins affecting cellular respiration. The impaired cellular respiration impedes the function of nerve cells present in retina, leading to loss of vision.


Symptoms


The person diagnosed with LHON may initially be asymptomatic or just have mild blurring of central visual field. The central vision is especially required for tasks such as reading, driving and recognizing faces. It typically begins with one eye Cheap New York Knicks Jerseys , with sequential involvement of the fellow eye later. The visual acuities of LHON patients are typically 20200 or worse.


In addition to vision loss, the symptoms of LHON person may include movement disorders, tremors, and impaired electrical signals that control the heartbeat (cardiac conduction defects). Some affected individuals can also have features similar to multiple sclerosis, characterized by muscle weakness Cheap Joakim Noah Shirt , poor coordination and numbness.


Treatment


There is no established treatment available for LHON. In few cases, the central vision gradually gets improved; however in most of the cases the vision loss is profound and permanent. Treatment options are few that include mitochondrial cocktails, ubiquinone analogues, steroids, immunosupressants with limited benefit. Medications having antioxidants have also shown some positive results in reducing the neurotoxic stress occurred due to reactive oxygen species. Patients are advised to avoid neurotoxins such as tobacco and alcohol because of their tendency to increase oxidative stress. Vision aids ( such as magnifiers Cheap Frank Ntilikina Shirt , large-print devices) may also be helpful.


Stem cell therapy


Novel approaches such as stem cell therapy are being explored for management of LHON. Stem cells being smart cells of body have ability to regenerate nerve cells in the optic region, allowing eye patients to recover some vision. The stem cell therapy procedure for eye disease include collection of tissue from patient, isolation of stem cells and injecting back stem cells to patients at retrobulbar site. Once the stem cells are administered to the retrobulbar space they begin to home at damaged tissue signals and start repairing damaged nerves. These stem cells also release various neurotrophic factors responsible for neuronal survival resulting in structural and functional improvement in visual functions.


Recently a clinical study involving large number of patients was published by the Stem Cell Ophthalmology Treatment Study (SCOTS) that evaluated efficacy of autologous bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMSCs) to treat optic nerve diseases.
