Bladder reconstitution occurs more rapidly using stem cell seeded SIS. Although in USG and SSG all 3 cellular constituents appear to develop by 3 months, only SSG had gene expression levels similar to those in controls. The results suggest an explanation for the fibrosis noted in unseeded SIS bladder augmentations and the possible solution using stem cells.

Normal subjects presented with a middle number and two left- and right-sided outer numbers overestimate the numerical distance between the middle number and that positioned at its left side. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the right posterior parietal cortex specifically counteracts this bias, suggesting that the mental representation of space defined by numbers is shifted toward the left side depending on a greater activity of the right hemisphere.
