May is stroke awareness month. When stroke occurs, its vital to act F.A.S.T. to minimize lasting damage such as motor paralysis, loss of sensory function, impaired autonomic functions and impaired cognition leading to deficits in communication, attention and memory. There are currently no drugs to support sensorimotor recovery from stroke and current therapies rely on retraining and physiotherapy, with rehabilitation. At Addex Therapeutics, we are testing dipraglurant, a metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 negative allosteric modulator (mGlu5 NAM) as a potential treatment for post-stroke sensorimotor recovery. Our aim is to begin phase 2 clinical studies in 2024. #strokemonth

The effects of radiation therapy can manifest in a broad spectrum of side effects. Early and late effects can range from a short-term loss of appetite to much more serious illnesses like osteoradionecrosis and osteomyelitis. We’re giving patients suffering from the late effects of radiotherapy hope for better outcomes with CMS-approved, effective HBOT treatments. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is shown to reduce, and even reverse three root causes of radiation therapy side effects: Hypoxia, Hypovascularity & Hypocellularity.

Liquid embolic agent safely used for minimally invasive embolisation to treat spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs). A case of 52 yo patient with severly disabling spinal dural fistula treated by injecting liquid embolic material (Onyx Medtronic ) into the abnormal vascular connection between the arterial and venous systems. This effectively occluded the fistula, alleviating symptoms and neurological deficits caused by venous hypertension. Liquid embolisation has shown promising results in improving patient outcomes and reducing complications associated with spinal DAVFs.

New clinical data in the OPuS One study of RFA for the treatment of palliative bone metasteses demostrated significant and swift pain relief and improved quality of life that was sustained over 12 months. In this, the largest prospective study on the performance and safety of this therapy, OsteoCool™ RF ablation by Medtronic was the only technology used. Meaningful pain relief (≥ 2-point change in worst pain) was experienced by 60% and 83% of patients 3 days and 12 months post procedure, respectively.

Plateletworks effectively determines functional platelet count and true platelet aggregation or inhibition using traditional ADP, Collagen or Arachidonic Acid agonists. All that’s needed is an impedance cell counter and Plateletworks reagent tubes to screen pre-surgical and trauma patients for adequate platelet function and to monitor effects of anti-platelet therapies. https://lnkd.in/eq67e-G

The 10 Benefits of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: Harnessing the Power of Your Body's Healing Abilities Introduction: Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a cutting-edge medical treatment that harnesses the body's natural healing mechanisms to promote tissue repair and regeneration. PRP has gained widespread recognition for its efficacy in treating various musculoskeletal conditions, offering patients a non-surgical alternative for pain relief and improved function. In PRP therapy, a concentrated solution of platelets, growth factors, and other bioactive proteins is extracted from the patient's own blood and injected into the site of injury or pain. This article explores the ten benefits of PRP therapy and its applications in managing a range of musculoskeletal conditions. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gq5R_Wkd
