LegalView Reports of New Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment Study Publishing Positive Results for Brain-Injured Victims

LegalView recently reported of a new treatment study for patients of TBI. The study found that when oxygen was administered therapeutically to brain-injured victims cognitive recovery improved.

Denver, CO, November 21, 2008 --(PR.com)-- LegalView, the number one resource for everything and anything legal on the Web, recently reported on its traumatic brain injury information blog of a new traumatic brain injury treatment study offering positive results for potential brain-injured victims. The study, conducted by Oxyen Biotherapeutics, was published in an October 2008 edition of the medical journal Neurosurgery and found that when brain injured rats were administered oxygen therapy to the brain they demonstrated a positive outcome.

According to the study, the company has developed a perfluorocarbon (PFC) therapeutic oxygen carrier, which they tested on brain injured rats and found the oxygen carrier actually improves cognitive recovery and "has a protective effect on hippocampal neurons." To learn more about the oxygen carrier, TBI victims can visit LegalView's traumatic brain information portal, which also provides information on obtaining a traumatic brain injury attorney. An experienced TBI attorney or lawyer will often offer a free legal consultation as to the development of a potential TBI lawsuit. Such litigation may provide monetary compensation as a reward and may assist a victim in overcoming the costly medical bills related to TBI.

For more information on TBI, visit LegalView's information portal and access several other legal practice areas as well with topics ranging from mesothelioma cancer and Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis to learning about obtaining a truck accident attorney.

Mesothelioma cancer is a rare and incurable condition in which a victim has been exposed to asbestos fibers and dust. Asbestos that has been inhaled begins to form cancerous cells on the lining of the body's internal organs, also known as the mesothelium. Over time, usually 20 to 30 years the cancer metastasizes until a victim is extremely ill. Because there is no cure for mesothelioma and the cancer is considered preventable, it may be advisable for a victim to locate an experienced mesothelioma law firm for a free legal consultation.

Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) is also a rare condition with a cause that is currently unknown, although it has been linked to the administration of gadolinium dyes for magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance angiogram (MRI/MRA) among kidney disease patients. The condition is often categorized as extremely painful and debilitating because of the NSF side effects that range from swelling and thickening of the skin to the inability for a patient to bend their joints and walk without assistance.

LegalView's truck accident information portal is available for victims who have suffered injury and involvement in a truck accident, which is often the most expensive and commonly the most fatal type of vehicular accident that can occur. Individuals who have been in one of these accidents should obtain an experienced truck accident attorney who can provide insight into developing a potential truck accident case.
