Purpose: To histologically evaluate the use of bovine derived deproteinized xenograft (DBBM), leukocyte and platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) and the combination of both in Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) performed in non-critical size defects in rabbit.
Methods: A prospective experimental study was performed. Four bone defects in the tibiae of 12 rabbits were made and each of them was filled with DBBM, L-PRF, a combination of DBBM + L-PRF or was left to heal as control site. All defects were covered with a collagen membrane. Rabbits were randomly distributed in three groups and euthanatized at 3, 6 or 9 weeks. Samples were obtained and histologically analyzed to determine vital bone, connective tissue and remaining graft particles percentage. Analysis of variance, Kruskal Wallis and non-paired t-test where used to evaluate the significance of the results.
Results: At 3 weeks of healing, DBBM showed significantly more vital bone percentage than L-PRF and DBBM + L-PRF showed significantly less connective tissue than control < . All other groups showed no statistical difference between them. At 6 weeks of healing, DBBM showed significantly more vital bone percentage than L-PRF < , DBBM + L-PRF < and control < and there wasn't any other significant difference regarding to connective tissue or remaining particle percentage between groups. At t 9 weeks healing period, there weren't any significant differences between groups.
Conclusions: DBBM seems to enhance vital bone formation at early healing stages. The use of L-PRF alone or combined with DBBM, didn't show any histological improvement regarding to vital bone formation. The use of DBBM, alone or in conjunction with L-PRF showed a trend to reduce connective tissue percentage. The use of L-PRF combined with DBBM didn't affect the remaining particle percentage.

Background: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for the management of lateral epicondylitis (LE) have been characterized by substantial variability in reported outcomes. The source of this heterogeneity is uncertain.
Purpose: To determine the effect of estimated platelet concentration on the efficacy of PRP for the management of LE.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to describe the inter- and intra-individual differences in the platelet concentration between blood and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) preparation, assess intersubject differences considering demographic and anthropometric variables, describe PRP code distribution and analyse intrasubject variability.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted using a single-centre patient database from November 2021 to November 2023. It included patients with musculoskeletal pathologies treated with PRP injections.
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with RAM immunophenotype is a newly recognized high-risk AML immunophenotypic subcategory characterized by blasts with bright expression of CD56 and weak to absent expression of CD45, HLA-DR, and CD38, as first described by the Children's Oncology Group (COG). The relationship between AML-RAM and other CD56-positive acute leukemias is unclear. The goal of this study is to characterize the clinicopathological characteristics of AML with RAM phenotype and compare them with other CD56 co-expressing acute leukemias.

Marine organisms, including shrimps, have gained research interest due to containing an abundance of bioactive lipid molecules.This study evaluated the composition and the in vitro biological activities of amphiphilic bioactive compounds from four different wild shrimp species: , , , and . Total lipid (TL) extracts were obtained from shrimp and separated into total amphiphilic (TAC) and total lipophilic (TLC) compounds.

To determine whether 448 kHz capacitive-resistive monopolar radiofrequency (CRMR) after platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) injections can further reduce pain sensation within the first 72 h in an active population with patellar chondropathy. One-hundred fifty-three active patients with patellar chondropathy grade II-III were followed for three days after PRP injections with and without CRMR under a control-placebo study. They were clinically evaluated for pain sensation using a visual analog scale ranging from zero (no pain sensation) to ten (highest pain sensation).
