RatCrushLimb / muscle crushWistarMaleTranscutaneous laser irradiation of the injured muscle; topical application for diclofenacPhotobiomodulation 830 nm, continuous mode, power output 10…First treatment 1 h after the muscle trauma
Model: Single controlled trauma to the anterior tibialis muscle in rats with experimental diabetes mellitus
Photobiomodulation alone and combined with diclofenac lowered cyclooxygenase-2 expression and plasma prostaglandin E2 more than injury or diclofenac alone, and improved gait at all time points.
