Photobiomodulation as part of multimodal analgesia to improve pain relief and wound healing after elective caesarean section: A protocol for randomized controlled trial.

Background: Caesarean section (CS) is the most common inpatient surgical procedure performed in Canada. CS is known to cause moderate-to-severe pain, which is suggested to be associated with postpartum depression and persistent pain. Existing limitations in multimodal analgesia and conscious attempts to avoid opioids highlight the need for non-pharmacological strategies.

[The comparative analysis of dorsopathy morbidity of adult population in the Russian Federation and separate Subjects of the Northern-West Federal Okrug in 2013-2022].

The dorsopathy is among of common causes of restriction of human life activity, affecting one's working capacity and quality of life. The purpouse of the study was to carry out comparative analysis of dorsopathy and spondylopathy morbidity of adult population in the Russian Federation and the Subjects of the Northern-West Federal Okrug in dynamics in 2013-2022. The statistical data of the Federal State Budget Institution "The Central Research Institute for Health Organization and Informatics of Minzdrav of Russia" was used.

Long wavelength distributed feedback tapered quantum cascade lasers.

We present a study on distributed feedback tapered quantum cascade lasers emitting at 14 µm. The fabricated lasers with taper angles between 0° and 3° exhibited output powers scaling in accordance with the active zone volume increase. Reduced divergence angles as small as 4.

Effects of Intrahypothalamic Administration of microRNA Inhibitors and Mimetics on Blood Plasma Biomarkers in the Rat Aging.

The effect of let-7a-5p, miR-9a-3p, miR-132-3p, miR-218a-5p microRNA inhibitors and mimetics, when administered into the dorsomedial nucleus of the hypothalamus (DMN), on the markers of age-related changes in blood plasma in 3-month-old and 24-month-old male rats was studied. In the 24-month-old control rats, the content of C-reactive protein (CRP) increased, and the level of myoglobin decreased compared to the 3-month-old animals. After te administration of miRNA inhibitors, the level of CRP significantly increased, and the content of myoglobin decreased, and after the administration of miRNA mimetics, opposite changes were observed.
