Laser research reports short-term improvement in wounds, keloid and hypertrophic scars, but without follow up to control for reoccurrence of keloids or diabetic lesions which generally reoccur following laser treatments. The microcurrent and ultra-low energy studies demonstrate significant healing where age is not a factor with no reoccurrence of diabetic wounds and other skin lesions. Our randomized, double-blind longitudinal research on eight wound repair clinical cases with an age range of 28 - 86, followed for one year, evidenced accelerated healing and no reoccurrence. The number of treatments required for substantial healing depended on the chronicity and severity of the lesion, with chronic severe lesions requiring more treatments, rather than age, a conclusion supported by ultra-low microcurrent research. These results on age-independent wound healing directly contradict a large body of literature postulating that healing is much slower with age due to immune insufficiency, age-accumulated oxidative stress, disrupted cell communications and sustained inflammation.展开更多

It involves expensive hospitalizations, often resulting in an amputated lower limb. We explored a variety of methods treating neuropathic pain such as low-level laser, monochromatic near-infrared treatment, TENS, acupuncture and pulsed electromagnetic fields that demonstrated inconclusive, limited or temporary pain relief with minor or short-term improvements in mobility. Research conducted by ultra-low energy technologies reports pain relief and reduction of inflammation as a result of anti-oxidant electron donation transforming free radicals into stable molecules. We report the results of a randomized double blind one-year-long longitudinal clinical study on 10 diabetic mellitus (DM) subjects with chronic neuropathy, treated with ultra-low energy nanotechnology who experienced substantial long-term neuropathic pain relief. Importantly, pain analgesia and improvement in neuropathic symptomatology were not age-contingent. This contradicts past research postulating that age-accumulated inflammation and endothelial dysfunction can further exacerbate diabetic neuropathy. Importantly, a method offering age-independent, cost-effective, long-term neuropathic pain relief and increased mobility has major implications in reducing hospitalization time and overall expenses by offering a solution that enhances quality of life.展开更多
