Does combined bone morphogenetic protein-2 and -7 gene transfer enhance osteoblastic differentiation and spine fusion in a rodent model?
Combined BMP2 and BMP7 gene transfer is significantly more effective in inducing osteoblastic differentiation and spine fusion than individual BMP gene transfer.
MDM appears in most cases in this study not to modify the patient-physician relationship. Due to the patient confidence into the referring physician, the role of this one is essential in integrating the decisional multidisciplinary opinion of MDM and it is important to ensure from his/her disengagement in the decisional process.
