In this new issue, the "Energy for Health" journal is pleased to present four papers that delve into the therapeutic applications of ASA technologies in the field of human and animal health. The first paper presents the results of a randomized study involving 76 patients that evaluates the effectiveness of MLS® Laser Therapy, compared to microwave diathermy and interferential current therapy, in managing glenohumeral peritendinitis. The second paper compares the effectiveness of Hilterapia® to that of shock wave therapy in the treatment of non-calcific rotator cuff tendinopathies. The third paper reports three interesting case reports on the application of MLS® therapy for promoting and improving the healing.of foot ulcers in diabetic patients. Finally, the fourth paper, belonging to the veterinary section, is focused on the use of pulsed electromagnetic fields to treat osteoarthritis in dogs, with the goal to improve joint mobility and reduce pain. These papers contribute to give clinical evidence of the therapeutic effects induced by ASA devices and they open new perspectives for the well-being of both human and animal patients.

This issue of Energy for Health brings together articles on several topics concerning the application of laser therapy both in the field of human medicine and in the field of veterinary medicine. In the first category, the published manuscripts concentrate on HILT®. The first article, a review, analyses the action mechanisms and the clinical evidence underlying Hilterapia®, whilst the second one describes the experience of a group of doctors when using the HILT® pulse combined with extracorporeal shock wave therapy for treating plantar fasciitis. The other two articles present successful cases when using lasers belonging to the MLS® family for treating canine osteoarthritis and avulsion of the brachial plexus.

Energy for Health presents in this issue four case reports dedicated to the application of MLS® therapy in various areas of human and veterinary medicine. As regards veterinary medicine, the first article reports interesting evidence on the effectiveness of MLS® therapy in the management of a necrotic lesion, presumably resulting from a spider bite, affecting the forelimb of an adult dog. In the second case report, which describes a study carried out on a python, MLS® therapy is applied to treat a severe form of stomatitis and the positive effects obtained are reported in terms of inflammation reduction. In the first article of human medicine, the effectiveness of MLS® therapy in promoting the complete healing of a diabetic foot ulcer is demonstrated. Finally, a case report is reported whose results support the potential use of MLS® therapy as a therapeutic resource in the management of COVID-19 patients.

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.

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.

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.
