Hematological and thermographical changes in rat's model exposed to long-term RF modulated signals.

Open Vet J

November 2024

Department of Biology, College of Education for Women, University of Tikrit, Tikrit, Iraq.

Background: Long-term exposure to LTE signals at different frequencies has become a crucial problem in our daily life.

Aim: The aim of the study to figure out the thermal influence of LTE signals (850 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 2600 MHz) on hematological values in rat's model during different periods.

Methods: Forty adult male rats were randomly distributed into four equal groups (control, 850 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 2600 MHz exposure groups).

Objective: To evaluate the safety of a minimum continuous positive airway pressure of 4 cmHO (CPAP + 4) during computed tomography (CT)-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for lung malignancies under procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA).

Methods: This was a prospective, randomised, single-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial with an open-label medical device conducted at a single tertiary university hospital in Barcelona, Spain. Forty-six patients over 18 years of age scheduled for CT-guided RFA of a malignant pulmonary tumour under PSA were randomised to receive either CPAP + 4 or a modified mask for placebo CPAP (Sham-CPAP).

Purpose: To use computational modeling to provide a complete and logical description of the electrical and thermal behavior during stereoelectroencephalography-guided (SEEG) radiofrequency thermo-coagulation (RF-TC).

Methods: A coupled electrical-thermal model was used to obtain the temperature distributions in the tissue during RF-TC. The computer model was first validated by an model based on liver fragments and later used to study the impact of three different factors on the coagulation zone size: 1) the difference in the tissue surrounding the electrode (gray/white matter), 2) the presence of a peri-electrode gap occupied by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and 3) the energy setting used (power-duration).

Deep-seated tumors (DST) can be treated using thermoseeds exposed to a radiofrequency magnetic field for performing local interstitial hyperthermia treatment (HT). Several research efforts were oriented to the manufacturing of novel biocompatible magnetic nanostructured thermo-seeds, called magnetic scaffolds (MagS). Several iron-doped bioceramics or magnetic polymers in various formulations are available.

Radiofrequency ablation is a nominally invasive technique to eradicate cancerous or non-cancerous cells by heating. However, it is still hampered to acquire a successful cell destruction process due to inappropriate RF intensities that will not entirely obliterate tumorous tissues, causing in treatment failure. In this study, we are acquainted with a nanoassisted RF ablation procedure of cardiac tumor to provide better outcomes for long-term survival rate without any recurrences.
