Vinh Tran suffered a catastrophic brain injury when he was two-months old because of the medical negligence of nuclear medicine technicians. We took the case knowing it would be difficult, but that the family desperately needed help and deserved justice. The Tran family provided all the care Vinh needed without assistance. Vinh's father worked to support the family, and Vinh's mother stayed home to care for him.
Study: Gender-Specific Therapy For Brain Injuries Looks Promising
The medical community has long been aware that oxygen deprivation
before and during birth causes worse brain damage in boys than girls, but the reasons why have proved elusive. A recent study provides exciting insight into the differences between female and male brain neurons after oxygen deprivation, or hypoxia.
