Research progress of low energy laser irradiation in hyperlipidemia treatment / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Hyperlipidemia is one of the most important risk factors of human atherosclerosis and cardiaccerebral vascular disease.The number of hyperlipidemia in China increased year by year and showed a younger trend.The current treatments for hyperlipidemia include drug therapy,physical exercise,diet prevention,liposuction surgery and low-energy laser therapy,etc.Many researches showed that low intensity laser irradiation has a certain curative effect on hyperlipidemia.The aim of this paper is to provide a new idea and method for the future treatment of dyslipidemia by reviewing the anti-hyperlipidemia methods and mechanism of low energy laser irradiation treatment.
