Purpose: This study aims to examine the effects of red 649 nm 4 J/cm and blue 403 nm 8 J/cm diode laser treatment for post-extraction wounded healing in rats through histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis.
Methods: Samples of 54 Wistar rats were divided into six groups: C- control group without treatment; C + wounded group without treatment; TB wound group with Povidone-iodine treatment; TD wounded group with doxycycline treatment; TLB wounded group with 403 nm diode laser treatment; and TLR wounded group with 649 nm diode laser treatment. Mandibular samples were observed for the number of lymphocytes and fibroblasts cells, new blood vessels formation, Interleukin 1β, and Collagen 1α expression level.
Results: Based on the histopathological test results, red laser diode treatment significantly increased the number of lymphocyte, fibroblast cells and the formation of new blood vessels. Meanwhile, immunohistochemical tests showed an increase in the expression of the Colagen-1α protein which plays a role in the formation of collagen for new tissues formation after damage, as well as a decrease in Interleukin-1β expression level. Blue laser is also able to show a positive effect on wound healing even though its penetration level into the tissue is lower compared to red laser.
Conclusion: The red diode laser 649 nm has been shown to accelerate the process of proliferation in wound healing post molar extraction based on histopathological and immunohistochemical test results.

SCES, Strathmore University, Nairobi, Kenya.
Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCL) are promising semiconductor lasers, compact and powerful, but of complex design. Availability of structured data of the QCL properties can support data mining activities that seek to understand the relationship between these properties, for instance between the design and performance features. The main open source of QCL data is in scientific text which in most cases is usually unstructured.

The Endolift® technique, introduced in 2005, gained popularity among medical and non-medical professionals as a non-surgical approach using subdermal laser devices. However, its widespread adoption lacked a thorough understanding of its physiological interaction, resulting in controversies over its effectiveness and safety. This study aimed to assess the evidence of Endolift® efficacy, parametrization, and safety by analyzing adverse events.

Non-linearities in organic exciton-polariton microcavities represent an attractive platform for quantum devices. However, progress in this area hinges on the development of material platforms for high-performance polariton lasing, scalable and sustainable fabrication, and ultimately strategies for electrical pumping. Here, we show how introducing Schlieren texturing and a rough intra-cavity topography in a liquid crystalline conjugated polymer enables strong in-plane confinement of polaritons and drastic enhancement of the lasing properties.

A 84-year old man who has a history of refractory Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) was treated with ALA-PDT combined with the dual 980-nm/1470-nm diode laser for 6 times every other week. Satisfactory result was noted without any unbearable adverse effects. The combination of the dual 980nm/1470nm diode laser and ALA-PDT may be an ideal strategy in treating local KS with good tolerance, especially in elder patients who can not tolerate radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
