This new issue of Energy for Health is completely dedicated to laser therapy. The first article is a clinical study that demonstrates the efficacy of MLS® Laser Therapy, combined with the use of a bite splint, in reducing the painful symptoms associated with temporomandibular disorders. The second study describes a "case report" where interesting evidence has been obtained in regards of the positive effects of Hilterapia® in the management of pain in a young patient affected by Tietze syndrome. The third article, a report describing the clinical experience of two independent Italian physiotherapy centers with the use of HIRO TT, shows the efficacy of this therapeutic strategy in the treatment of multiple conditions that characterize musculoskeletal pathologies. Lastly, a study carried out by veterinary doctors presents results supporting the use of laser acupuncture as a valid therapeutic resource for the treatment of various behavioral disorders in the dog.

In this nineteenth issue, Energy for Health presents insight concerning both laser- and magnetotherapy. The first paper reports the results of a preliminary study on the effects of the MiS laser in the management of neuropathic pain. The second paper describes a retrospective study where the efficacy of MLS® therapy in the treatment of multiple musculoskeletal conditions is highlighted in terms of pain reduction and patient’s satisfaction. In another paper concerning an in vitro study performed on a model of nerve cells, the safety and effectiveness of exposure to magnetotherapy are evaluated. Finally, it is presented a “case report” of veterinary medicine where a positive effect of MLS® therapy applied in the treatment of necrotizing fasciitis is evidenced.
Neuropathic pain: preliminary clinical case records on MiS laser effects
Musculoskeletal pain: clinical effects of MLS®
In vitro studies: effectiveness and safety of exposure to magnetotherapy

The contents of issue number 18 of Energy for Health offer insights into the use of MLS® therapy in various areas of human and veterinary medicine. In particular, as regards veterinary medicine, the authors of the first study (Cabassi et al.) assessed the efficacy of laser therapy for the treatment of canine pyoderma, a pathological condition in which a bacterial infection forms at skin level.
The second work presented is a retrospective dentistry study (Doan & Duong) concerning the clinical effects of MLS® therapy in dental implant operations in postmenopausal women. It highlights the efficacy of MLS® therapy in pain management and the fewer complications recorded in laser-treated implants.
The third work (Friederichs) analyses the use of laser therapy in the treatment of inattentive symptomatology in patients with learning and attention deficit, demonstrating that an improvement in symptoms is recorded after 10 laser treatments.
Finally, the last article presented (Guzman et al.) evaluates the use of MLS® therapy for managing low back pain.
Canine pyoderma: efficacy of MLS® Laser Therapy
Dentistry: clinical effects of MLS® in dental implant operations
Central auditory processing disorder (CAPD): MLS® in the treatment of inattentive symptoms
Low-back pain: use of MLS® in pain management
The contents of the seventeenth issue of Energy for Health, the scientific journal of ASAcampus, concern insights both on laser therapy and on magnetotherapy. The first article describes a "case report" which demonstrates the efficacy of MLS® therapy in reducing the pain symptoms associated with cervical radiculopathy. The second study, conducted by dentists, reports a series of cases where MLS® therapy is associated to the use of a dental bite in the treatment of craniofacial pain and temporomandibular joint disorders. The third article describes the results obtained in two centres which treated a total of 100 patients with HIRO TT, a new therapeutic strategy that combines the pulsed Nd: YAG laser source with a refrigerant system which lowers the temperature of the skin and underlying tissues (SmartCooler). Lastly, there is a basic study aimed at understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the biological effects of electromagnetic fields.
Cervical radiculopathy: a Case Report treated with MLS® Laser Therapy
Dentistry: MLS® therapy and dental bite in temporomandibular disorders
HIRO TT: a new therapeutic strategy
Magnetotherapy: in vitro trial in a fibroblast model
Four articles dedicated to MLS® Laser Therapy: the first, conducted by dentists, demonstrates its effectiveness in treating disorders in the maxillofacial and oral region by reporting two "case reports", the second study concerns the benefits of MLS® therapy in treating patients with tendinitis. The third discusses the hypothesis of stimulation by means of MLS® Laser Therapy in patients with symptoms caused by hearing impairment; the last one talks about how MLS® represents a valuable aid in managing the painful symptoms associated with degenerative diseases of dog joints.
Dentistry: MLS® and disorders in the maxillofacial and oral region
Tendinopathies: benefits of MLS® Laser Therapy
Hearing: MLS® Laser Therapy and auditory stimulation
Veterinary medicine: MLS® and pain management in degenerative joint diseases
Four articles dedicated to MLS® therapy. The first, conducted by dentists, demonstrates the efficacy of MLS® therapy in treating the painful condition resulting from tooth extraction. The second study, which concerns the treatment of patients suffering from musculoskeletal disorders, compares the effects of MLS® laser therapy with those of a "single wavelength" NIR source. The third article describes a "case study" which reports interesting evidence on the efficacy of MLS® therapy in trigeminal neuralgia pain management. Finally, a study on the safety and clinical efficacy of laser acupuncture performed with MLS® laser in spinal pain management is presented.
Dentistry: MLS® in post dental extraction
Musculoskeletal disorders: comparison between MLS® and a pulsed NIR laser
Craniofacial pain: a clinical case of neuropathic pain treated with MLS®
Laser puncture: MLS® and spinal pain
In addition to an interesting study on the application of Hilterapia® in the treatment of knee arthritis, this issue contains three in-depth studies dedicated to MLS®. This is a preliminary study conducted by veterinary doctors on the effect of MLS® therapy in the treatment of tendinitis in sheep, then a case report on the application of MLS® therapy in a patient affected by disc herniation with radiculopathy and finally a focus on an in vivo study on the efficacy of MLS® therapy in a model of neuropathic pain in the rat.
Tendinitis: MLS® in an ovine tendon injury model
Radiculopathy: a case report with MLS®
Neuropathic pain: in vivo study with MLS®
Knee arthritis: a study with Hilterapia®
Thirteenth issue of the scientific journal of ASAcampus Energy for Health, entirely dedicated to laser therapy. There are four articles focusing on and dedicated to MLS® and Hilterapia®. Specifically: two studies demonstrate the efficacy of MLS® therapy in treating chronic craniofacial pain and interesting evidence on the safety and clinical efficacy of MLS® laser acupuncture in managing chronic pain in joint diseases. Two other articles report, instead, the studies carried out by applying Hilterapia® to the treatment of Achilles tendinitis and to serious tendon and ligament diseases. A short letter on the application of laser therapy in veterinary medicine concludes the issue.
Craniofacial pain: efficacy of MLS® in chronic conditions
Tendinitis: Hilterapia® for Achilles tendinitis and for serious tendon and ligament diseases.
Laser puncture: MLS® for chronic pain in joint diseases
