Upturn Strategies for Arachidonic Acid-Induced MC3T3-E1-625 nm Irradiation in Combination with NSAIDs: Dissipating Inflammation and Promoting Healing

Danyang Liu et al.

Summary: Oral surgery, such as tooth extractions and dental implantations, can cause inflammation in the bones. Anti-inflammatory drugs and light-emitting diode irradiation (LEDI) at 625 nm have been used to reduce inflammation and promote wound healing. In this study, the efficacy of LEDI, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or a combination of both on anti-inflammatory and wound healing effects were analyzed. LEDI and NSAIDs both reduced cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin E-2 (PGE(2)). LEDI also promoted cell migration, proliferation, and bone formation, while NSAIDs did not. Therefore, the combination of LEDI and NSAIDs can provide a beneficial strategy for bone healing after tooth extraction.

Peiqi Li et al.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA) compared to analgesics in treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and provide evidence-based medical support. Randomized controlled trials from January 2012 to December 2021 were included. The risk of bias in the studies was assessed using the Cochrane tool, and the quality of evidence was assessed using GRADE. Statistical analyses showed that EA had a higher effective rate and significantly improved Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) stiffness scores compared to the control group. However, EA and analgesics had similar effects on visual analog scale scores, pain, and joint function. EA is effective in treating KOA by improving clinical symptoms and quality of life.

Brain Network to Placebo and Nocebo Responses in Acute Experimental Lower Back Pain: A Multivariate Granger Causality Analysis of fMRI Data

Yu Shi et al.

Summary: This study investigated nocebo hyperalgesia and placebo analgesia responses in an acute lower back pain model using multivariate Granger causality analysis. The results suggest that placebo mainly works by activating the reward system and inhibiting pain-related network, while nocebo works in the opposite way. The study also found that the two networks share some brain regions but also have unique structural features.

The Challenges and Perspectives of the Integration Between Virtual and Augmented Reality and Manual Therapies

Francesco Cerritelli et al.

Summary: Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have been integrated with manual therapies (MTs) to improve patient care, particularly focusing on areas like balance and chronic pain that require both physical and psychological interventions. MTs rely on touch-based stimulation, while VR and AR rely on visual, auditory, and proprioceptive stimulations. The combination of MTs with VR and AR could enhance patient immersion in virtual experiences, address pain-related emotional issues, and promote sensorimotor integration.
