What 7 Feet Tall Isaiah Austin Having Marfan Syndrome Suggest To Professional Basketball Players

So I was not able to write much in the last 2 weeks due to a combination of issues: legal, technical, and health related. Hopefully most of those issues have been resolved.

The news that is making the rounds in the NBA and the basketball world in the last 2 days is that Current Baylor University’s Basketball Center and NBA Draft hopeful Isaiah Austin was diagnosed with Marfan’s Syndrome. It might be surprising news for some people but for people like me, it was almost sort of expected.

I became aware of Austin for a couple years now since I am a fan of basketball. It is always interesting to see what types of players are coming up in the annual NBA Drafts. Austin was a potential game changer for the NBA team who would draft him for his amazing length. When I first saw this kid, who was obviously tall, it did strike me as a little strange that a person would be as skinny as him, even for the ectomorphic body shape of most professional basketball players. Add in the fact that he always wore plastic goggles, and it just made him look slightly strange. It would turn out that he lost the use of one of his eyes in recent years due to a detached retina stem.

I have been aware of Marfan Syndrome for a long time, ever since I was doing research on the various genetic pathologies which can lead to tall stature like Klinefelter Syndrome, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Proteus Syndrome, the condition affecting the late Siah Khan and Zech Devits,  and Marfans and found pictures and threads on TheTallestMan.com forums suggesting that Abraham Lincoln most likely had Marfan Syndrome. Lincoln was shown to have the average length of torso but his legs and arms were very disproportionally long. When Lincoln would sit down, his sitting height would be the same as most men of his time.

If I paid more attention to the videos on Isaiah Austin and how his body looked, I would have been able to diagnose him within a minute of having Marfan. However, since he is not playing professional sports yet, there was only a small handful of videos on this kid.

His body shape is similar to what we see in other super sized humans like Mamadou N’Diaye and Shagari Alleyne, who have more than just height but also unusually long wingspans. While N’Diaye has been diagnosed only this year with having an overactive pituitary gland condition, I am not sure if anyone has checked Alleyne yet. There are people who are tall from genetics and others who have become large due to a medical condition or genetic mutation.

It is a good thing that at least these days all prospects who want to play professional basketball are required to also get a full body physical and even blood work done to check for some hidden/unknown genetic predisposition towards some type of illness. Marfan Syndrome is one of those illnesses which are a type of silent killer. The syndrome causes connective tissue to be lossened, thus the extra height, but also the muscle tissue around the body.

The general medical concern is that the muscles that makes up the arteries and/or aorta is enlarged. If the body of the player playing a high intensity level physical stressful game gets pushed too much, that region of the heart can actually rupture, instantly killing the person from the loss of blood and internal bleeding.

Apparently Austin went to get an standard EKG (Electro Cardio Gram) and there seemed to have been some type of abnormality in the rhythm of the heartbeat noticed on the graph. Further tests showed he had marfan.

What all this news indicates is that there is a very good chance that a shocking high percentage of the people who player professional basketball have marfan syndrome, and they just don’t know it.

Generally, people who are above average in height are pushed into playing the sport. I would suspect that maybe even 1 out of 100 people who play professional basketball of any team in any country suffer from the disorder, but they just don’t realize it. This news that has come out should be a sign that people who notice that maybe their body is ectomorphic or have a very thin torso should get themselves checked out. They don’t have to be 7 feet tall like Austin but if they have that unique body shape, it would be a good sign to do something. The regular checkup with the GP (General Practitioner) is not enough since the family doctor and the nurses using even the best regular stethescope or Sphygmomanometer would be able to catch a heart murmur or rhythm irregularity.

Korean Scientists Have Patented An Ultrasonic Vibration Generating Device To Make People Taller

This post is probably going to make a lot people a little curious. I have found that there are much better places to find unique and stunning research and discoveries and inventions than just PubMed. I just use Google Patents or ClinicalTrails.gov. Here is probably one of the bigger discoveries I found.

I am actually quite surprised why Tyler has never reported it. It is actually a really well known device.

Portable physis-stimulating device for promoting growth with two-phase ultrasonic vibration generators and led elements – (Patent #: US 20110060254 A1)

Abstract Below

Disclosed herein is a growth plate stimulation-type portable growth promotion apparatus including two-phase ultrasonic vibration generators and Light Emitting Diode (LED) devices. The ring-shaped two-phase ultrasonic vibration generators have a center hole. Each of the LED devices is provided in the center hole of the each two-phase ultrasonic vibration generator. The two-phase ultrasonic vibration generators includes a ring-shaped vibration stator configured to have a center hole; a first electrode layer provided under the vibration stator; a second electrode layer provided under the first electrode layer; and a piezoelectric ceramic group layer configured to include a first piezoelectric ceramic group for generating an A phase and a second piezoelectric ceramic group for generating a B phase. Growth plates are stimulated using two-phase ultrasound projected from the two-phase ultrasonic vibration generators and light projected from the LED devices.

Some of the Pictures or Schematics on how the device will be built and the way the components will be aligned next to each other.

My Analysis: From looking at what other types of patents and research the Patent Inventors had been involved with, the device seems to be based on very credible science.

Most people probably would never believe such a device would even be possible, but we realized it was all possible after finding the original patent by Brighton on electrical stimulation. These Korean researchers figured out how to use a type of ultrasonic vibration generator to create the right type of electromagnetic wave to stimulate the epiphyseal cartilage of young children to proliferate in a faster faster rate.

The main inventor Taek Rim Yoon has at least two dozen other patents under his/her name which are related in the bone generation and BMP-2/growth factor areas of study. Their co-inventor Sung Jun Park has dozens of patents related to wireless transmission and communication, which suggest this Sung researcher was involved in the electronics side.

I have not had the time to really dig deep into the patent to learn just how the emitted LED light and the ultrasonic vibration really gets the cartilage stimulated but there have been signs from even other members of the height increase community suggesting that using vibrations and ultrasonic waves would be able to induce certain bones to grow large volumetrically.

Here is what the person called LongLegs on the LSJL said, believing that vibration therapy could induce the irregular vertebral bones to become thicker, thus making the overall body longer.

The argument is reasonable and I personally have been trying to find an high intensity, high frequency, ultrasonic vibration stimulation device to buy for at least a year now, but it was to be used in the research to allow for regeneration of lost teeth, through stem cell implants. You can read up more on lost teeth regeneration and stem cell implants from the PDF “Stem Cells in the Face: Tooth Regeneration and Beyond” (Authors: Jeremy J. Mao1, and Darwin J. Prockop).

Maybe I should look to see how the ultrasonic actually works to stimulate cartilage to grow thicker.

{Tyler’s Notes-A couple things.  Ultrasound can inconsistently stimulate longitudinal bone growth.  Different studies get different results but Ultrasound definitely has potential.  As for Long-legs argument that ultrasound can induce longitudinal bone growth in spinal bones after puberty.  There is no periosteum on the top and bottom of spinal bones as there is articular cartilage there.  Even though the bones of the spine are irregular bones they still develop from growth plates.

However, it is definitely easier to apply Ultrasound on the spinal bones then it is to perform LSJL.  However, it’s unclear whether Ultrasound would perform all the stimuli that LSJL or if it generates enough stimuli to generate “neo-growth plates”}

MY TOULON, OR LIFETIME ADVENTURE.

1988. Business trip. Evening in Moscow. I am sitting on the sofa close to a most pretty girl. She is 22, just graduated from colledge. I am a 38-year-old engineer. A “trip” love affair is at its height. Her face expresses admiration mixed with curiosity, she is stroking me with her hands in tender haste, encouraging to continue my speech… And I pontificate:” …At school you learned little about Napoleon, he was such a rare personality, you know, who managed to tame the destiny…A role model for ambitious men of the world…He began at his 24, when he fought as a junior officer of artillery of the French Republic.

There is a seaport – Toulon in France. At that time it was taken over by rebellious royalists supported by the Englishmen, and there was no chance to get them out of there. And Napoleon presented his plan of seizing the city by one attack to the commanders, and they had no choice but agree, but on condition that he would be in charge of everything himself, and if it did not work, he would be taken to tribunal and shot.

Nevertheless, he managed that, and at once a lieutenant was appointed a general and was brought to Paris… There he proceeded with his career, became an emperor of France. So am I, I have an idea. I’ve been promoting it for two years… It only needs to be tested. If an experiment works well – Toulon is taken over… My Toulon”.

I didn’t tell her then – what the idea was. In fact, there was no need to talk about that. We were seeing each other for one and a half week, and I’d already impressed her more than enough. Not for nothing were we sitting in her apartment while her parents were away for the weekend in their country house. I was simply bursting with a joyful hope and I had to splash out a bit, it seemed that the goal is already within reach! Oh, how wrong I was then, and later again and again… for four years.

The idea came to my mind two years ago, when a “School of Growth” from Moscow became widely known all over Russia. A doctor was offering to all who wishes a method, according to which, if one kept a special diet and did exercises similar to yoga for a year or two, at any age he would be able to augment one’s height unlimitedly (!). Again, while my business trip to Moscow, I dropped in this “School” to satisfy my curiosity, and found there a huge line of people from all over Russia aged from 14 to 60 (!).

I must admit that 170 cm (5.6 feet) of my body did not suit me, that is why I took an active part in talks of people in the line. We ardently discussed all rumors, cases and myths concerning the subject, rushed with questions to those who were coming out the “School”, having done another set of a wonder-gymnastics… A year later the “School of Growth” went bankrupt and disappeared, no miracle happened. But the thought about lots of people who wish to grow up settled firmly in my mind… It’s just a world market!!

Later I found plenty of new information. Several times, while reading newspapers and magazines, my eye caught articles devoted to innovation research of orthopedic surgeons, and here and there I ran across reports about lower extremity stretching performed on the people who often did not have any trauma. That sparked my interest, and I addressed local, volgogradian orthopedists … The information they gave me was a surprise, as it turned out, such operations were being performed for a long time on persons of restricted growth and on those whose one leg is shorter than the other from birth, there existed routine practices. The risk of postoperative complications was vain, and there was no official interdiction to perform such operations on common people for cosmetic purpose!

Right away I suggested performing such an operation on me. And then the doctors told me a story, that at the end of the 60-s the great Dr. Ilizarov ( a Russian orthopedist, who discovered that if separated by a special device, the fragments of broken bones of arms or legs would grow together forming a new bone, for that purpose he invented a special device. Before that broken bones were only shifted together for the coalescence, though in case of compound fractures it lead to the shortening of arms or legs) quite successfully augmented the height of some student and nearly got to prison for 10 years charged with experimenting on a healthy person.

That fact inspired me, and I stared to press for permission to repeat Dr. Ilizarov’s experiment on me. In ministries and departments I was treated politely and faced no refuse, they spoke to me with interest, but gave no permission: “As there is no interdiction, address to doctors, not to us”… I started seeing to doctors, frequent business trips across Russia assisted that, I visited all orthopedists everywhere… But doctors had their own answer: “…We don’t mind, but an official permission is necessary”. I was shuttling from doctors to officials and back, that had become my hobby… however, there were encouraging moments as well. In 1989, in Zaporogje, I presented my idea to Dr. Devjatov, Anotaliy Andreevich, who was the head of orthopedic department there and a follower of Dr. Ilizarov. Dr. Devjatov told me to come back in autumn to undergo an operation.

I called in September and was shocked – Dr, Devjatov died from heart attack in Leningrad, on his way back from Finland. Let him rest in peace, he was real man. In distraught I started to work with public.

I began to address students in Volgograd, they signed a petition petition to make our deputy go to the Health Minister and get the permission. The deputy handed in a sackful of signed petition during the parliamentary session, but the Minister gave no answer. It was such an experience for me that in 1990 I ran the election, left behind 5 other candidates and became a deputy of the city Council. In autumn of 1991 it seemed that luck smiled me again, I made an arrangement for an operation in Moscow with a famous orthopedist from CITO (Central Institution of Traumatology and Orthopaedy), the idea appealed to him greatly. We arranged everything , I came at he fixed time and was hospitalized to CITO, spend a week there waiting, and then the doctor appeared dreary, bidding excuses, as the academic council of CITO had refused the permission to operate.

That was the moment when I was stuck by a tough depression. I left CITO, and found nothing better that to call that old Moscow girlfriend: “…I’m not a Napoleon; I’m a piece of shit…” Later in the hotel I got drunk dead, and went home in the morning. I though that was the end, I’m 40 – too late for dreams.

But probably God loves dreamer! In March 1992 my friend, a businessman suggested me talking to a orthopedist from Volgograd, who offered to sell the results of his research. So went to see him, he was a Master of Science, and told him: “Who will by you research? There are such inventors in almost in every clinic with no chance to apply their own ideas, I saw that with my own eyes…”. I said so, and then told him about my idea. And he – proposed to put it into practice! Three days later he performed an operation, only wrote some obscure diagnosis to prevent the higher-ups from interfering. I awoke after the operation, the device was on my leg, the general condition was, naturally, just as after anaesthesia, but my heart was singing. I wish everyone to experience such a condition at least once a life. That was happiness in pure form! Further – about a year spent in hospital. There was all, I mean, sweat, blood and tears, but when one’s soul was soaring, all the rest is just a trifle.

In March 1993 I left the hospital, having stretched my legs by 6 cm (2.36 in). By that time, there had already appeared some reports in the local mass media, so that when I came to the meeting of the City Council, where I was not present for a year, I sparked a furore, all the staff, almost 200 people. Crowded around, ones asking questions, others measuring height with me. That was the first time when I felt like Napoleon after Toulon.

After that, for about four moths I learned to walk on the “new” legs. Muscles were adjusting to the new bones, and I was working out my balance, as the centre of gravity had shifted, at times I was turning jerkily and was falling, especially on stairs. That is why the gait of teenagers, who are growing fast, is wobbling and uncertain. Meanwhile, my doctor informed me that the same technology was suited for healthy persons, for curved legs straightening and that it was very easy and took only 2 months. So it was time to work – to find sponsors and to open the public eye on for new opportunities.

I left the factory, in 1993 the City Council was dismissed, for a whole year I was in search for a suitable job; sometimes I had no money even to buy food. They it all sorted out somehow, my legs returned to a normal condition, a friend gave me a job in his company; I started to earn some money.

And an idea sparked again. I had augmented the height, what about rejuvenation? I had read a book by PhD. Nikolaev, in which he told that his patients, persons with bad health, while treated by starvation diet, incidentally experienced sudden rejuvenation of the organism. I connected the PhD. Nikolaev, we arranged my visit to his clinic in Moscow for an experiment. So I came and was starving safely at Nikolaev’s for 18 days, lost 12 kg (26.46 pounds).

When I left the clinic, I got to physical training, and restored everything I was able to perform on both horizontal and parallel bars while in the Army, then began to do push-ups on fists, so that in four months l was able to perform 120 push-ups at a fast pace. The standard for US Army officer of special troops is 50 push-ups of that kind for “Excellent”.
Several times, in the evening, I dropped in discos, and the young took me for a person of the same age, saying that I looked not more than 26, and I was 44 years old at that time.

In 1996, France Press agency contacted me for an interview as I was the first healthy person in the world, who had surgically augmented his height in mature age with a cosmetic purpose, afterwards, this report was published by many well-known western periodicals, the references are available here , besides, now I’m constantly appear on all the russian TV channels in talk-shows, what is more, two documentaries about me were shot. My doctor is now showered by invitations to share his experience in foreign orthopedic centers, he has visited the US, Sweden, Lithuania, Germany, and his method is now known all over the world as Russian cosmetology.

I also proceeded with my career, upheld the first in the world thesis on “anthropometric cosmetology”, took out more than 40 patents for inventions. And I was marked in the Russian book of records “Divo”, as the first person in the world augmented his height with a cosmetic purpose, and when I got acquainted with the representatives of the Guinness Book, they even got angry because I had not addressed them in time to state the record, but it was impossible at that time as my doctor and I started the experiment secretly.
If there are any questions for me, please send them on the address michail@rucosm.com

P.S. In December 2004 my doctor – 52 year-old Michael Yegorov, suddenly died from cancer. Nevertheless, what is left is the Center of Anthropometric Cosmetology that he created, his team of surgeons, his talented followers.

A Few Thoughts

This guy who was the world’s first cosmetic limb lengthening patient got his surgery done back in 1992. Ilizarov started to slowly perfect his external method starting in the 1960s. It took him 30 years to get all of the technical details to work out. Now it is 2014. It has been ONLY a little over 20 years since the LLS was made public. Not only that, this Goldreyer guy had to consistently complain to the Soviet Government to allow him to go through with the surgery. The whole process took him a full 4 years to execute due to soviet government beaurocracy and red tape.

To the Readers

You guys who are still in your teens and early 20s, you have no patience. The technology has only been around for 20 years. Biological and medical discoveries and breakthroughs take a lot of time, unlike computer and software innovation.

Wait it out, and let the researchers and scientists do their job. We have come a long way since Mikhail got his surgery by Yegorov.

Maybe, just MAYBE all the readers will need to wait another 20 years before the stem cell approach will be ready for commercial use by the general public. By that time, I will be close to 50 years old, but I will at least be proud to have been able to push the human race a little further.

I don’t intend to get the surgery, but I want to be part of the endeavor, to realize that this ancient wish within almost all short statured men and women will finally be within reach for anyone. Before the 1990s, there was no options available. Now in the 2010s we have multiple online discussion board where its members are comparing dozens of surgeons who are qualified to perform it and have great safety records. That is really amazing!

I want the readers to stop complaining over the price, over having to wait years for it (because it will take years), and live their lives. Come back in 5, 10, 15 years and see how much will have changed. Based on my recent post on how Kurzweil’s Law and Amara’s Law will triumph over Murphy’s Law over time, I would guess that the stem cells approach will be ready in 15-20 years. Most of us will be much older by then, probably have spouses, multiple kids, even divorces, bankruptcies, and everything else in between. However, as long as the human race can keep moving forward in technological progress, we will get it. If you can’t get LLS alternatives like Stem Cell Implantations, can you at least be happy that your future children will have that type of opportunity, in case nature and genetics are not that kind to them?

My suggestion – Go out there and make your millions, and come back. 

Goldreyer found himself completely broke after his surgery. he got over 2 inches in height but the result was he used up all his money. Be smart and make your money first, and get the increased stature later, when you are financially secure and can throw money around for the luxuries in life.

Cosmetic Surgery is a Luxury. Remember that, it is not a Right or Entitlement.

We might maybe feel that it was never supposed to be our fate to be as small as we did end up. We may feel like god cheated us out of our birth right to be considered big and strong. Life is not fair. We can only work with what we have in front of us and what is available at the current time, which has much more options than our grandparents or parents ever had.

THE MOSCOW NEWS “A MAN GROWS BY ONE MILLIMETRE A DAY ” JULY 30, 1993 – Copyright 1993 Moscow News – Moscow News – July 30, 1993

A man grows by one millimetre a day – BYLINE: Irina FROLOVA,

An international centre of anthropometrical cosmetology*) is being organized in Volgograd. Now every healthy person needs only one or two years, a certain amount of will and some money to become beautiful.

Only a couple of years ago the idea of a certain concern specializing in transforming ordinary people into beautiful women and handsome men evoked an ironic smile. Today many of former sceptics (including VIPs) are eager to buy the concern’s shares or at least make friends with its organizers in order to secure a place at the future clinic.

CONCERN

The prospect of substantially improving one’s good looks is in itself alluring. But the evil fairy of beauty demands, besides gold and silver, such sacrifices as labour and patience. Complete restoration requires about two years. At first psychotheraputists and sports medics strengthen the patient’s general health (those who wish may be weaned forever from the habit of drinking and smoking). After that vigorous exercises will prepare the body for serious tests in endurance.

The first to attack the deficiencies will be dentists who will replace bad teeth with flawless articificial implants (made at the Kharkov Stomatological Institute). After that cosmetology surgeons will correct the nose, ears or chin, remove folds of fat and make other necessary plastic operations. After that there will be another short course of health building preparatory to the treatment of the skin. In Volgograd they plan to use prolonged fasting under doctors’ control. It will get rid of unnecessary kilograms and rejuvenate the skin. The organism also becomes more responsive to physical loads, so it will be possible quickly to build up muscles after the course. Included in the project is also a course of treatment of pathological balding and various methods of improving the quality and structure of hair. During the final stage of the programme the patients will be cured of something no one else attempts to do anywhere else in the world: the form and length of bones. Minor corrections will give them slender and beautiful arms and legs, and they can also grow seven-ten centimetres taller. These operations will be made by specialists of a new and promising branch of commercial medicine, known as anthropometrical cosmetology.

METHOD

Gavriil Ilizarov began to lengthen his patients’s legs back in the 60s. The gravest congenial or acquired bone pathologies were corrected within a couple of months. The same method may be used without much difficulties to lengthen the legs of a healthy person. This, however, was forbidden by instructions of the Ministry of Public Health, so doctors refused to operate on healthy people even for great remuneration. They were intimidated by the sad experience of their teacher. About 20 years ago Professor Ilizarov yielded to the persuasion of a student and helped him become taller. The experiment was successful but the doctor nearly landed in the dock. The pretext for his prosecution was the absence of a state permission to conduct experiments on healthy people. Since then the specialists of the Kurgan orthopaedic centre and of all of its branches have been treating only people who were really sick. Yet every surgeon has had to break the senseless taboo at least once in his life. One of Ilizarov’s first and favourite pupils, Anatoly Kaplunov told an MN correspondent a typical story. He conducted a “prohibited” cosmetic operation in 1978. His patient was Lena S., a nine form schoolgirl whose legs were crooked from birth. Another girl could be reconciled with her destiny and meekly carry her cross. But Lena was tortured by her acquaintances and attempted to take her life several times. She was saved by a surgical operation. And two years later the charming, slim and long-legged Lena S. invited the doctors to her wedding.

STUNTMAN

Five years ago Mikhail Goldreyer was an ordinary electrician at the Volzhsky Tube Factory. Before that he got acquainted with the problems of short men anxious to increase their height.

Mikhail was inspired by the idea of transforming the achievements of Russian orthopeadics into an official and profitable branch of modern medicine. As is often the case, nobody believed in the project’s reality, especially when Goldreyer wanted to become the first healthy patient of Ilizarov’s disciples.

To begin with, the 42-year-old man decided that he should grow taller than his 170 centimetres. To this end he interviewed all prominent orthopeadists in the country. He worried officials of the Ministry of Public Health, appealed to the conscience of people’s deputies and sought ideological support at the Philosophical Society of the USSR and even the Komsomol Central Committee. He resorted to all thinkable and unthinkable methods, from actions of students’ protest to an open political rostrum (since 1990 Goldreyer is a deputy of the Volzhsky City Council.

The problem was solved by time. The Union disintegrated, and there was less official pressing on medics. In the spring of 1992, candidates of medical science Anatoly Kaplunov and Mikhail Yegorov, performed, to Mikhail’s great joy, an operation on a healthy man. The words “lengthening of the shin” oppeared for the first time in a patient’s card.

A year later Goldreyer came to Moscow to demonstrate to the top medical authorities his shins which had grown by six centimetres and became obviously straightened. In a year’s time he will rejuvenate his skin with the help of fasting and build up his muscles. After a series of plastic operations and the acquisition of a Hollywood smile Mikhail intends to lengthen his hip bones. Doctors are in no hurry about the second operation which, they think, will upset the body’s proportions. But Coldreyer can’t wait to become a live advertising sample of a new branch of medicine.

OPERATION

The entire operation lasts an hour and a half under local anaesthesia. It is absolutely bloodless and almost stitchless. It is, incidentally, monitored by a computer on a special programme. The bone is no longer crushed by a chisel. Through four cosmetic incisions the surgeon does, with the help of special wire an accurate Z-shaped saw cut (M. Yegorov’s invention). After that the leg guided by Ilizarov’a device grows by one millimetre a day. Long hospitalization is not necessary (the patient must spend at the hospital the first 7-10 days). The patient may grow at home because he remains capable of walking. It takes only 2-3 months to correct the form of legs, and one can increase one’s height by 6 centimetres in less the half a year.

DOCTOR

Mikhail Yegorov is in charge of a division of the orthopaedic centre of Volgograd city hospital No.3 where they work by Ilizarov method. He manages to put on their feet very difficult of even hopeless patients, first of all because he is a unique engineer surgeon. He has patented more than 20 inventions. He designs apparatuses and devices which help bones accrete after grievous wounds.

It has always been especially difficult to treat patients whose fragments of bones were absent after wounds. The methods employed previously were ineffective, since alien bones accreted badly. Yegorov found a fantastically simple solution. A special device helps grow on the healthy leg a bone tissue of the required size. After that the young bone is implanted where necessary.

Several people who wish to grow come to Yegorov during his reception hours. So far, however, it is very difficult to help everyone, to make the method work as an assembly line.

*) Anthropometrical cosmetology (from Greek “anthropos” – man, “metron” – measure, “kosmetike” – the art of beautifying, “logos” – science) is a science of making a person beautiful through changing his bones. (From a modern dictionary of foreign words).

Update #15 – Breaking Up The Website To Different Research Areas – June 1st, 2014

There has been some serious news that I found only this month which was recently revealed. In the next few months I will be releasing at least around half a dozen new developments going on in the world today. After those news are revealed, I am going to start to break apart the website towards different areas of research. We need to shift the focus of this website to other things since this type of research is inherently limited.

That is why I want to go into research on 6 areas….

Cancer – specifically the biochemistry mechanisms that causes the 200+ types of cancers to develop. Cancer is just uncontrolled and unrestricted proliferation of a certain type of cell.

Transdifferentiation – this is the holy grail of stem cell research, and I think it is also linked helping researchers figure out how the Hydra can stay in a state of biological immortality.

Stem-Cell-Research – Based on what I just revealed, I want to stay and focus on learning more about stem cells, and the various ways the researchers are getting fibroblasts to turn into other types so easily.

New Regenerative Tissue Engineering Techniques and Ideas – This is huge, and is going to be much, much bigger in the coming decades.

Back Pain – One of the leading causes for americans to go to seek medical treatment is back pain. The research we have already done reveals that there are many ideas already being patented and licensed out by orthopedic specialists to try out.

Knee Pain – After finding the KneeGuru.com website, it would be wise to also focus on learning more about treatments on how to treat and manage knee pain and knee related injuries and medical ailments. I just really want to focus on understand how the various types of joint pain (Shoulder, Hip, Wrist, Ankle) is developed. There has to be much better solutions and treatments than just cold compresses, taking some ibuprofen, and staying off of one’s feet.

I am not planning on ever moving completely away from research on height increase, but that does not mean I am going to restrict my research only on height increase. It is not possible to create disruptive innovation and futuristic technology without learning about other areas of scientific research going as well. What I learn from studying stem cells, cancer, surgical methods, and back pain will only help strengthen my lack of knowledge further so that new ideas and proposed methods and solutions can be created.

On the issue of Patents:

I definitely want to see where is the patent for the implantable growth plate by the Russian team. I will be planning on scouring through the russian websites and search engines to find or track down the patent that is claimed to exist but is being held back due to legal issue. If the patent has NOT been filed within 2 years time or has not reached approval, then I will file THE EXACT SAME patent before Teplyashin’s team. It may cost me $50,000 but over the long term, it will have some very good financial payoff decades from now. After the patent is approved where I give the exact full details on how everything is done, I will be willing to put a few years of my life into finding real investors and show them a proof of concept. I am guessing it would take around $50 Mil to create a 2 year runway to get the entire thing to become self-sustaining.

Harald from the Biomedical Growth Research Initiative and the other representatives may have been trying for the last 10 years to get rich investors but I have some business experiences and very strong connections with very large biomedical companies like Johnson & Johnson, Biogen, GlaxoSmithKline, and Eli Lilly. They only half-assed the effort to find financial support, which got them nowhere except a bunch of pretentiousness and a lot of talking with no action backed up and amateur level legal paper work.  They did no real research or reading themselves, but tried to be some type of quasi-middle man, HR-like connector who provided nothing to the overall progress of our goals and endeavor.
