Polylaminin, a drug considered capable of reversing spinal cord injury

I think it's actually this one, or perhaps a new one after it:

		I find this part most interesting: "Three participants (2, 7, 8) regained motor control. i.e., converted to AIS C or D, at the 1-month examination. Other three (4, 5, 6) converted to grade C after 3 months. In the present study we observed that, in contrast to the expected baseline conversion of 15%, 75% (6/8) of the participants regained voluntary motor control after polylaminin treatment. If we consider only those participants that reached discharge, the proportion increases to 100% (6/6)."

That paper is an in vitro demonstration whereas the OP article seems to imply they tested on actual patients?

Yes, it was tested on patients. @ bfdrummond on Instagram was the first one - he is now almost 100% recovered

		Do we know of other patients? Sometimes drug and medical device companies will gag patients with non-disparagement agreements, while letting the success stories post freely on social media to promote their product/procedure/etc.

		Hey FYI, this isnt the place for that type of comment. This isn't Reddit, and we don't want it to become such. Unnuanced, potentially inflammatory quips about a vaguely related current political situation just aren't appropriate here. There are plenty of ways to express the same sentiment without resorting to the type of commentary that is common elsewhere. I encourage you to read the community guidelines for HN.
