Peculiarities of children’s health status after acute respiratory viral infections: a look at the problem, ways to solve it by Yu.V. Marushko, T.V. Marushko, O.A. Dmytryshyn, O.A. Bovkun, T.V. Iovitsa, B.Ya. Dmytryshyn

“…The persistence of these manifestations hinders the adequate restoration of the child’s adaptive capacity and the fight against hypoxia, acidosis, metabolic disorders due to ARVI, and post-viral asthenic syndrome. This determines the urgency of finding appropriate methods of correction with etiopathogenetic (inhibition of oxidative stress, reduction of acidosis and hypoxia, restoration of liver function), immunoregulatory (improvement of the immune system), and symptomatic (improvement of appetite) effects. …”

Effects of different negative pressure cupping interventions on inflammatory response and motor function recovery in delayed onset muscle soreness by Xu Song, Teng Ma, XianYou Cui

“…These were assessed at the baseline and 24 h after the intervention.ResultsNPCT groups exhibited significantly lower VAS scores than the CTR group (−55 kPa: 1.57 ± 0.79 vs. 6.14 ± 0.69; P < 0.05), and the efficacy was pressure-dependent (−55 kPa > −4 kPa > −35 kPa; P < 0.01). Functional recovery was significantly improved in NPCT groups (30-meter sprint: 0.27 s; standing long jump: 0.08 m; P < 0.01). …”
