Positive Effect of An Autologous Platelet Concentrate in Lateral Epicondylitis in a Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial: Platelet-Rich Plasma Versus Corticosteroid Injection With a 1-Year Follow-up
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has shown to be a general stimulation for repair. Purpose To determine the effectiveness of PRP compared with corticosteroid injections in patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis.
Experimental Study of Tendon Healing Early Phase: Is IGF-1 Expression Influenced by Platelet-Rich Plasma Gel
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a single application of platelet rich plasma (PRP) gel in a patellar tendon defect on the spatial and temporal expression of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) during tendon healing.
The Effect of Subconjunctival Platelet-Rich Plasma on Corneal Epithelial Wound Healing
Single-dose subconjunctival platelet-rich plasma (sPRP) injections with or without antibiotic treatment were investigated for their effect on corneal epithelial wound healing in a rabbit model.
The Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma on the Neovascularization of Surgically Created Equine Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon Lesions
The repair process of tendon injuries, which are common in both human and equine athletes, is slow and the quality of the repair tissue is often inferior to the original tendon tissue, which frequently leads to re-injury.
