Abstract Background: The association of scaffolds to repair extensive bone defects can contribute to their evolution and morphophysiological recomposition. The incorporation of particulate biomaterials into three-dimensional fibrin bioproducts together with photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) has potential and can improve regenerative medicine procedures. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effect...
Abstract Purpose: To compare the functional result of standart vein grafts and inside-out vein graft technique on sciatic nerve repair. Methods: We used 24 male Wistar rats divided into 4 groups: control group (CG), standard vein graft group (SVG), Inside-out vein graft group (IOVG) and denervated Group (DG). SVG, IOVG and DG underwent total section of the sciatic nerve, SVG and IOVG however underwent nerve rep...
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate if electrical stimulation through Russian current is able to maintain morphology of the cranial tibial muscle of experimentally denervated rats. Methods Thirty-six Wistar rats were divided into four groups: the Initial Control Group, Final Control Group, Experimental Denervated and Treated Group, Experimental Denervated Group. The electrostimulation was performed with a protoco...
RESUMO As lesões de nervos periféricos ocorrem frequentemente e, de modo geral, causam perda funcional impactando de forma negativa na vida do paciente. O objetivo do estudo foi verificar a eficiência da associação da laserterapia e natação em ratos acometidos por axonotmeses. A amostra foi composta por 50 ratos da linhagem Wistar. Foram divididos em 5 grupos, sendo: grupo controle (GC); grupo controle cirúrgic...
