Use of Platelet Rich Plasma in an Isolated Complete Medial Collateral Ligament Lesion in a Professional Football (Soccer) Player: A Case Report
In this report, we present a case of an elite football player, treated with multiple PRP local injections followed by rehabilitation, for a high grade MCL lesion of the knee.
Rehabilitation of a Partially Torn Distal Triceps Tendon After Platelet Rich Plasma Injection: A Case Report
This case report presents the rehabilitation strategy used following a PRP injection for a patient with a partially torn distal triceps tendon who previously failed physical therapy interventions.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in Dental and Oral Surgery: from the Wound Healing to Bone Regeneration
This review suggests that the use of PRP in the alveolar socket after tooth extractions is certainly capable of improving soft tissue healing and positively influencing bone regeneration but the latter effect seems to decrease a few days after the extraction.
Platelet-Rich Plasma Versus Focused Shock Waves in the Treatment of Jumper’s Knee in Athletes
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections and focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in athletes with jumper's knee.
HGF Mediates the Anti-Inflammatory Effects of PRP on Injured Tendons
This study provides basic scientific evidence to support the use of PRP to treat injured tendons because PRP can reduce inflammation and thereby reduce the associated pain caused by high levels of PGE2.
Treatment of Partial Ulnar Collateral Ligament Tears in the Elbow with Platelet-Rich Plasma
The results of this study indicate that PRP is an effective option to successfully treat partial UCL tears of the elbow in athletes.
An Exercise-Based Physical Therapy Program for Patients with Patellar Tendinopathy after Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection
This study extensively describes, based on current knowledge, a physical therapy program after PRP injection for patellar tendinopathy patients.
Does Use of Cell Saver Decrease the Inflammatory Response in Cardiac Surgery?
We hypothesized that the use of a cell saver may reduce proinflammatory cytokine concentrations in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Effects of Red Blood Cell Transfusion on Hemodynamic Parameters: A Prospective Study in Intensive Care Unit Patients
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion on hemodynamic parameters including transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD)-derived variables.
Emergency Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Using Minimized Versus Standard Extracorporeal Circulation–A Propensity Score Analysis
Using propensity score estimation and matching, we did not observe significant differences in terms of survival and further outcomes in patients who undergo emergency CABG with CECC or MECC, but our results call for further analysis.
