The Impact

Male infertility is a multifactorial syndrome, which includes a wide range of disorders. It is a symptom of many different pathological conditions affecting both the reproductive and other body systems: endocrine, nervous, blood-vascular, and immune systems. Low level laser therapy is a method of modern physiotherapy, in which the impact is carried out by low-intensity laser irradiation (LILI). It is widely used in all areas of modern medicine, due to its high efficiency, simplicity of use, the absence of contraindications and side effects. The results of russian and foreign experimental studies on the article subject were analyzed. A definite conclusion is drawn that low level laser therapy should be used as much as possible in the complex treatment of men with infertility, since the effectiveness of the method is not just high, but often has no alternatives. At the same time, the available low level laser therapy techniques should be widely used: locally, rectally, laser acupuncture, ILBI (intravenous laser blood irradiation), on the projection of various organs, paravertebrally, etc. All parameters of laser action should be set (wavelength; mode of operation; frequency for pulsed lasers; power; power density, determined by the method of exposure; exposure, localization), which are specified by the relevant regulatory documents and clinical recommendations.

The Impact

Introduction: Temporomandibular disorders are complex pathologies with multifactorial aetiology. Due to this matter, different therapeutic approaches have been developed, one of them being physical therapy (also known as physiotherapy). Low-level laser therapy is often used in treating musculoskeletal diseases, TMJ pain and, although the exact mechanism of LLLT has not yet been completely elucidated, it seems that this kind of therapy induces analgesic, anti-inflammatory and bio-stimulating effects. The aim of this study was to create an update of scientific literature regarding the clinical use of LLLT in patients with temporomandibular disorders, and to identify the impact of this therapy on reducing pain in the masticatory muscles. Methods: A research of literature was performed - articles published over the last 10 years (January 2009 until December 2019) were searched for by introducing a combination of different keywords on the PubMed and ScienceDirect databases. Results: A total number of 294 articles were found. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 28 articles were taken into consideration for our study, and among them, 9 were systematic meta-analyses or literature reviews and 19 were clinical studies. Conclusion: Low level laser therapy may effectively reduce pain in patients suffering from muscular- and/or joint-specific TMDs, but the effect appears to last only for a short period of time, and can be achieved only in less complex cases. LLLT may also improve oro-facial functions by reducing muscular activity. This research also reveals the need for better-designed clinical trials with larger sample sizes, in order to evaluate the efficacy of LLLT on improving the signs and symptoms of TMDs. Key words: Low-level laser therapy, temporomandibular disorders, muscle pain,

Introduction: One of the major complains after surgery is pain. Recent advances in the prevention and reduction of postoperative pain have provided several modalities. One of them is the use of laser irradiation on the surgical area. Objectives: To evaluate the effects of low level laser therapy (LLLT) on pain and side effects after surgery. Methods: In this research, databases such as: PubMed, Science Direct, Google Scholar, Springer and Cochrane were used and the words of laser therapy, photobiomodulation, therapeutic laser, low level laser therapy, surgery and pain were searched. Articles, including systematic reviews, original articles, case series, and clinical intervention studies related to these words, were studied. The language of all articles was English and consists of papers from 2009 until 2017. Results: A total of 370 papers were studied and 10 articles that met inclusion criteria were selected for this review. Few of these articles were followed up. Surgery included a wide range of surgeries including mastectomy, breast augment post-fracture, episiotomy, tonsillectomy and hernia. The methodological quality score on the PEDro scale was between 5 and 11. 8 trials reported positive effects and 2 trials reported negative effects. In order to study clinical effect size of laser therapy after surgery, only 4 papers met entry criteria and the mean effect sizes were 0.13 to 2.77. Accordingly, the best treatment protocol included a red laser dose of 4 J/cm2 for the post-operative pain of tonsillectomy, which was irradiated through the infra mandibular angle on the tonsils. Conclusion: LLLT may be an appropriate modality for reducing pain after surgery, nevertheless the effect size of this modality is variable. Therefore, further research based on proper protocols for these patients and follow-up of therapeutic course should be designed and implemented.

The Impact

Introduction: Herpesvirus infection has a variety of clinical forms and is extremely widespread in the world while existing treatment methods are not always quite effective. The search for new treatment modalities is a relevant problem and numerous studies show the therapeutic effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on different herpesvirus types. Methods: The mechanisms of laser light action and the impact of LLLT on the pathological pathways of herpes infections are described. A narrative review of the relevant papers is conducted. Results: The reviewed studies confirm that LLLT is a potential prospective treatment method for patients infected with the herpesvirus. However, it is necessary to improve the methodology and optimize the combination of laser action with antiviral medications. Conclusion: The review shows that it is most effective to combine laser impact on skin lesions with the application of topical antiviral gels or creams, additionally using a combined procedure of laser ultraviolet blood illumination (LUVBI, 365-405 nm) + intravenous laser blood irradiation (ILBI, 525 nm).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) improves the healing of the implant surgical site with clinical and biochemical parameters.Thirty patients with an edentulous space spanning a single tooth were selected. The patients were randomly allocated to two groups - the control group and the test group. The test group received laser energy at a power of 2J/cm 2 with a total of 4-6J energy over each implant. Clinical parameters (Implant Stability Quotient, probing index, modified sulcus bleeding index)and osteoprotegerin (OPG) were assessed at baseline and follow-up intervals (2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 3 months).The test group showed significantly higher implant stability quotient compared to thecontrol group at 2 weeks(57.93±3.95 and 35.67±3.08; p<0.01) and 3months(58.86±3.75 and 67.06±3.78; p<0.01). A significant rise in OPG levels of the test group(686.30±125.36pg/ml at baseline and 784.25±108.30pg/ml at 3months;p<0.01) was seen contrary to significant decline in the control group (839.50±249.08pg/ml at baseline,415.30±78.39pg/ml at 3months;p<0.01). Within the limitations of the study, the study suggests that the healing of peri-implant hard and soft tissues may be enhanced with the use of LLLT as an explicit modality during the post-operative period.
