Research paper thumbnail of Efficacy of Combined Photobiomodulation Therapy with Supplements versus Supplements alone in Restoring Thyroid Gland Homeostasis in Hashimoto Thyroiditis: A Clinical Feasibility Parallel Trial with 6-Months Follow-Up

Despite the current conventional treatment focuses on the permanent replacement of levothyroxine (LT4) deficiency, it appears that thyroid autoimmunity remains the cause of persistent symptoms in patients with HT, even when they achieve to be euthyroid from a biochemical standpoint. Photobiomodulation (PBM) showed to be an effective therapy in the management of autoimmune diseases, but with limited evidence. Hence, our study was conducted to appraise the efficacy of PBM therapy with supplements in restoring thyroid gland homeostasis in patients with HT compared with supplements alone. Seventy-four female subjects aged between 20 and 50 years old were recruited and divided equally into two groups: PBM and supplements group (group 1); and supplements alone group (group 2). The PBM dosimetry and treatment protocols were as follows: wavelength,...

Research paper thumbnail of Dissertation: Women and Meditative Practice within Early Mahayana Buddhism with a focus on the Lotus Sutra

A study of women in the early Buddhist tradition and their relationship with meditative practice,... more A study of women in the early Buddhist tradition and their relationship with meditative practice, using the Lotus Sūtra as an example of the potential for female enlightenment within Mahāyāna doctrine. Central themes include the androcentric and misogynist trends of early monastic Buddhism, rejection of the feminine through the Buddha's awakening and adherence of the tradition to celibacy and meditation using female corpses. The main focus is given to female emancipation through sexual transgression and transformation in Mahāyāna texts, and gender transformation within the context of the revolutionary teaching of the 'one vehicle' of the Lotus Sūtra.
