1) The document discusses the physiological effects of therapeutic ultrasound, including both thermal and non-thermal effects.
2) Non-thermal effects include cavitation, acoustic streaming, and micromassage, which can increase membrane permeability and alter diffusion rates.
3) Thermal effects include heating of tissues like ligaments and tendons, which can temporarily increase their extensibility and reduce pain. Heating can also promote healing processes.

Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

6. Physical & Physiological effects:
As oscillation or sonic energy is passed
through the body tissue, it causes transfer of
heat energy in the body tissues. If this energy
is not dissipated by normal physiological
response, then there is local rise in
temperature, which accounts for thermal
effects.
If heat dissipation equals heat generation
there is no net rise in temperature and any
effects are said to be non-thermal.
7. Using low intensities or pulsing the output
achieves non-thermal effects.
8. Non thermal effects:-
Cavitation:
Cavitation is the formation of tiny gas bubbles
in the tissues as a result of ultrasound
vibration.
These bubbles, generally of a micron (10-6
m) diameter.
These can be of two types, namely stable
cavitation or transient(non-stable) cavitation.
Stable cavitation occurs when the bubbles
oscillate to and fro within the ultrasound
pressure waves but remain intact.
9. Transient (or collapse) cavitation occurs when
the volume of the bubble changes rapidly and
then collapses causing high pressure and
temperature changes and resulting in gross
damage to tissues.
Stable cavitation associated with acoustic
streaming, is considered to have therapeutic
value but the transient cavitation, which is only
likely to occur at high intensities, can be
damaging.
10. Thermal effects:
The advantage of using ultrasound to achieve
heating is due to the preferential heating of
collagen tissue and to the effective penetration of
this energy to deeply placed structures.
Heating fibrous tissue structures such as joint
capsules, ligaments, tendons, and scar tissue
may cause a temporary increase in their
extensibility, and hence a decrease in joint
stiffness.
11. Mild heating can also have the effect of
reducing pain and muscle spasm and
promoting healing processes.
12.
13. In practice the danger of tissue damage due
to cavitation is minimized by the following
measures:
• Using space-averaged intensities below
4W/cm2
• Using a pulsed source of ultrasound
• Moving the treatment head during
insonation
14. Acoustic streaming:
• Acoustic streaming is a steady circulatory
flow due to radiation torque.
• Additionally, as a result of either type of
cavitation there is a localized, unidirectional
fluid movement around the vibrating bubble.
• These very small fluid movements also
occur around cells, tissue fibres, and other
boundaries, which is known as
microstreaming.
15. Microstreaming exerts stress on the cell
membrane and thus may increase membrane
permeability.
This may alter the rate of ion diffusion
causing therapeutically useful changes, which
includes increased secretion from mast cells,
increased calcium uptake, and production of
macrophages.
All these effects could account for the
acceleration of repair following ultrasound
therapy.
16. Standing waves:-
Standing waves are due to reflected waves
being superimposed on the incident waves.
The result is a set of standing or stationary
waves with peaks of high pressure (antinodes).
Gas bubbles collect at the antinodes, and
cells collect at the nodes.
This pressure pattern causes stasis of cells
in blood vessels.
17. The endothelium of the blood vessels
exposed to standing waves can also be
damaged leading to thrombus formation.
There is also the possibility of marked local
heating where the amplitude of the combined
waves is high.
If transducer head is moved during the
treatment, then standing waves are unlikely to
form.
18. Micromassage:-
The micromassage effect of ultrasound
occurs at a cellular level where the cells are
alternately compressed and then pulled further
apart.
The waves of compression and rarefaction
may produce a form of micromassage, which
could reduce oedema.
Ultrasound has been found to be effective at
reducing recent traumatic oedema and chronic
indurated oedema.
19. Acute stage:-
Stable cavitation and acoustic streaming
increases calcium ion diffusion across the cell
membrane, which works as a cellular
‘secondary messenger’, and thereby increases
the production and release of wound-healing
factors.
These include the release of histamine from
mast cells and growth factors released from
macrophages.
20. In this way, ultrasound has the potential to
accelerate normal resolution of inflammation
providing that the inflammatory stimulus is
removed.
21. This acceleration could also be due to the
gentle agitation of the tissue fluid, which may
increase the rate of phagocytosis and
movement of particles and cells.
Thus, ultrasound has a pro-inflammatory,
not an anti-inflammatory action.
22. Proliferative (Granulation) stage:-
This begins approximately 3 days after injury
and is the stage at which the connective tissue
framework is laid down by fibroblasts for the
new blood vessels.
During repair, fibroblasts may be stimulated
to produce more collagen; ultrasound can
promote collagen synthesis by increasing cell
membrane permeability, which allows the entry
of calcium ions, which control cellular activity.
23. Not only is more collagen formed but it is also
of greater tensile strength after ultrasound
treatment.
Ultrasound encourages the growth of new
capillaries in chronic ischaemic tissue and the
same could happen during repair of soft
tissues after injury.
The enhanced release of growth factors from
macrophages following exposure to
therapeutic ultrasound may cause proliferation
of fibroblasts.
24. It has been suggested that ultrasound
treatment given during the first 2 weeks after
injury accelerates bony union, but, if given to
an unstable fracture during the phase of
cartilage formation, it may result in the
proliferation of the cartilage and consequently
delay of bony union.
25. Remodelling Stage:-
This stage last months or years until the new
tissue is as near in structure as possible to the
original tissue.
Ultrasound is considered to improve the
extensibility of mature collagen such as is
found in scar tissue, which occur by promoting
the reorientation of the fibres (remodelling),
which leads to greater elasticity without loss of
strength.
