overcoming dogmatic barrier in neurosciences research: an applauded for annals of neuroscience paradigm

摘要

Despite the huge resources that have been expended in SCI research and human trials, there is yet no satisfactory clinical intervention. Our conventional interventions could not produce any significant improvement in neurological recovery or a meaningful increase in function. However the vast potential of phytomedicinal resources have been largely ignored in the search for SCI remedy. This results from the apathy that “the effects of pharmaco-therapy especially of medicinal plants are not always evidence based medicine”. Overcoming the dilemma of spinal cord and nerve injury requires open mindedness as exemplified by the focus Annals of Neurosciences. It has provided a window of opportunities for non-mainstream approach in neuroscience research by its philosophy that encourages submissions of reports that challenges established dogmas. Thus enabling neuroscience investigations. doi : 10.5214/ans.0972.7531.1118102
