Objective- This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using platelet rich fibrin membrane as a novel on-lay patching biomaterial in canine esophagotomy and its effects on esophageal wound healing. Design- Experimental study. Animals- Eight adult mixed breed dogs of both sexes equally allocated to control and treatment groups.<b...

a functional treatment for skeletal damages in orthopedic and oral maxillofacial surgeries is required. platelet growth factors such as platelet derived growth factor (pdgf), bone morphogenic factor (bmp), transferring growth factor-β (tgf-β) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (igf-1) proceed wound healing and bone regeneration. in the present study we focused on the effect of platelet rich plasm...

       Mefloquine (MFQ), as a racemic mixture is used for the prophylaxis and treatment of malaria. Stereoselective pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic differences have been observed for MFQ. In the present study, the human blood was spiked with racemic MFQ. The concentration of MFQ enantiomers in various blood fractions including packed erythrocyte layer, platelet rich plasma and platelet poor...

BACKGROUND Autologous platelet concentrate has been used to improve the function and regeneration of injured tissues. Tendinopathies are common in clinical practice, although long-term treatment is required. On the basis of lead time, we compared the effect of using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in repairing rat Achilles tendon. METHODS The effectiveness of usi...

OBJECTIVE Muscle injuries are common, and their treatment requires costs and time off. Platelet rich plasma and low level laser therapy have been shown to be affordable and easy to use. The aim of this study was to evaluate the associated effects of low level laser therapy and platelet rich plasma on the treatment of the soleus muscle injured by strain in rats. METHODS Thirty-five rats were r...

background: repeated implantation failure (rif) is a major challenge in reproductive medicine and despite several methods that have been described for management, there is little consensus on the most effective one. objective: this study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma in improvement of pregnancy rate in rif patients. materials and methods: twenty women with ...

OBJECTIVES Changes in plasma thioredoxin (TRX) concentrations before, during, and after a 130-km endurance race were measured with the aim of elucidating the relationship between exercise and oxidative stress (OS). METHODS Blood samples were taken from 18 runners participating in a 2-day-long 130-km ultra-marathon during the 2 days of the race and for 1 week thereafter. There were six samplin...

OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy of the application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the healing process of acute tympanic membrane perforations (TMPs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Acute TMPs were made in both the ears of 12 New Zealand rabbits. Plasma gel was applied at the right tympanic membrane (TM) of the same animal until the perforations were closed. The left TM was left untreated. On days 1...

The 20 patients in this quasi-experimental investigation had internal temporomandibular joint dysfunction. Prior to the procedure, information on sound, maximum inter-incisor opening of mouth (MIO), and pain intensity (VAS) were acquired. Patients checked seven days three months after operation gather outcome information. To find out procedure's effectiveness, pre- post-procedural data compared...
