1451 results about "Adjunctive treatment" patented technology

The purpose of adjunctive therapy, often called complementary therapy, is to increase the benefits of the initial treatment of a disorder by prescribing additional medications and/or treatments. Several examples of disorders and diseases that are generally treated with adjunctive therapy include cancer,...

Therapeutic energy systems

The invention provides a therapeutic system comprising:
    • a console, wherein the console comprises a controller and an energy generator;
    • a therapeutic device comprising: an operational head configured for transmitting the energy output from to a biological tissue; and a memory device comprising control instructions, wherein said control instructions comprise instructions for controlling the console;
    • a reversible memory operable linkage linking the memory device to the controller; and
    • a reversible connector configured for operably linking the energy generator to the operational head.
Optionally, the energy generator is a generator of ablation energy or heat energy (e.g. RF generator) and the control instructions comprise instructions for controlling the output of the energy generator. Optionally, the control instructions comprise one or more parameters of energy output or an algorithm configured for controlling the energy output. Optionally, the system further comprises one or more secondary therapeutic devices and the control instructions comprise instructions for controlling the one or more secondary therapeutic devices. Optionally, the system further comprises one or more sensors configured for sensing parameters of energy output or biological or environmental effects of the energy output and the control instructions comprise instructions for controlling the energy output and/or secondary therapeutic devices based on the parameters of energy output or biological or environmental effects. In some embodiments, one advantage provided by the present invention is the use of a single console with a plurality of interchangeable reversibly connected therapeutic devices.

Polypeptide medicament sustained release microsphere or microcapsule preparation with uniform grain size and preparation method thereof

The invention discloses a polypeptide medicament sustained release microsphere or a microcapsule preparation with uniform grain size, a preparation method thereof and application. The average grain size of the microsphere or the microcapsule preparation is between 50 nanometers and 100 microns, and the grain size distribution coefficient CV value is less than 20 percent. The polypeptide medicament has a definite structure, has functions of therapy or adjuvant therapy of type-2 diabetes, and is preferably one or more of GLP-1, Exenatide, Exendin-4 and derivatives and analogs thereof. The microsphere or the microcapsule preparation uses a microsphere or a microcapsule with uniform grain size as a substrate to prepare the polypeptide medicament into a sustained release preparation through an embedding mode, and by changing the grain size of the microsphere or the microcapsule, the sustained release cycle is adjustable between one week and one month, and the microsphere or the microcapsule preparation can be applied to the therapy or the adjuvant therapy of the type-2 diabetes and body weight control. Besides, the microsphere or the microcapsule preparation has the advantages of simple preparation process and mild preparation course, and can protect the biological activity of the embedded polypeptide medicament.

Regulation of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) gene expression in living cells via the application of specific and selective electric and electromagnetic fields

Methods and devices are described for the regulation of Transforming Growth actor (TGF)-β1, β2, and / or β3 protein gene expression in bone cells and other tissues via the capacitive coupling or inductive coupling of specific and selective electric fields to the bone cells or other tissues, where the specific and selective electric fields are generated by application of specific and selective electric and electromagnetic signals to electrodes or one or more coils or other field generating device disposed with respect to the bone cells or other tissues so as to facilitate the treatment of diseased or injured bone and other tissues. By gene expression is meant the up-regulation or down-regulation of the process whereby specific portions (genes) of the human genome (DNA) are transcribed into mRNA and subsequently translated into protein. Methods and devices are provided for the targeted treatment of injured or diseased bone and other tissue that include generating specific and selective electric and electromagnetic signals that generate fields in the target tissue optimized for increase of TGF-β1, β2, and / or β3 protein gene expression and exposing bone and other tissue to the fields generated by specific and selective signals so as to regulate TGF-β1, β2, and / or β3 protein gene expression in such tissue. The resulting methods and devices are useful for the targeted treatment of bone fractures, fractures at risk, delayed unions, nonunion of fractures, bone defects, spine fusions, osteonecrosis or avascular necrosis, as an adjunct to other therapies in the treatment of one or all of the above, in the treatment of osteoporosis, and in other conditions in which TGF-β1, β2, and / or β3 protein may be implicated.

Biological fermentation composition with anti-cancer effect and application of biological fermentation composition

The invention relates to a biological fermentation composition with an anti-cancer effect. The biological fermentation composition is prepared by using a method comprising the following steps: a, preparing a culture medium mixed solution; b, sterilizing; c, cooling; d, inoculating to obtain a fermentation solution; and e, standing to obtain the biological fermentation composition with the anti-cancer effect. The composition disclosed by the invention can be used for improving the in-vivo micro-ecological environment, balancing and regulating effective microbial communities in intestinal canals, repairing damaged cells, replenishing various in-vivo active bio-enzymes, amino acids, nucleic acids, trace elements and the like, improving the immunity of a human body, preventing diseases, effectively inhibiting cancer cells and stopping the dispersion and development of the cancer cells. Meanwhile, the biological fermentation composition can be used for improving an acidic physique to be a weak alkaline physique, is particularly suitable for the cancer crowd, the crowd with hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia and the fat crowd, can be prepared into various dosage forms such as pills, paste, aqueous solutions and the like, and has favorable supportive therapeutic effects on cancer, diabetes, digestive system diseases and the like.

Stent with auxiliary treatment structure

InactiveUS20090264982A1Reduce fluid turbulenceAvoid problemsStentsBlood vesselsCholesterolReticular formation
A medical device for treatment of a stenosed body lumen, includes an open-ended cylindrical body carried on a distal end of a catheter for insertion of the device into the body lumen and placement at the stenosed site. The cylindrical body is movable between a collapsed position for insertion into the body lumen, and a radially expanded position pressed against the wall of the body lumen. In one embodiment the body sidewall is formed by a plurality of interconnected struts or elements defining openings therebetween, and at least one elongate ribbon is attached to an outer surface thereof for carrying a therapeutic agent. In another embodiment, the body is formed of interwoven elements defining a mesh-like structure, and the elements may comprise dissimilar materials, such as, e.g., copper and silver. In a further embodiment the body is formed of layers of different materials such as, e.g., copper, silver, and / or steel, laminated together. In a still further embodiment the device is designed for temporary placement of the catheter and body in a body lumen for treatment of a stenosed site, after which the catheter and body are withdrawn. In all forms the body may have an outwardly flared inlet end to reduce turbulence of fluid flowing through it, and / or a gel-like coating of a cholesterol-dissolving or blood clot dissolving agent may be placed on the device.
