1.	Fibrosis (Cirrhosis) 07/01/1993 - "These results suggest that GT1587 may prove beneficial in preventing postlaminectomy dural adhesions and peridural fibrosis in humans." 07/01/1993 - "Spinal peridural fibrosis following total laminectomy in New Zealand White rabbits was significantly decreased by the intraoperative application of GT1587, a semi-synthetic carbohydrate polymer. "
2.	Cicatrix (Scar) 07/01/1993 - "The sites treated with GT1587 showed significantly decreased peridural scar formation and dural adhesions, whereas GT1043 treatment caused modest reduction of scar formation at only the 2-week examination. "
