Intravascular laser irradiation of blood (ILIB) was developed to treat cardiovascular diseases due to its rheological effects. In its original form, ILIB was applied by an intravenous optical fiber, restricting its application. However, this technique was modified to non-invasive irradiation through the radial artery, now called vascular photobiomodulation (VPBM). Many studies have used both, ILIB and VPBM, to treat lung diseases. It is well established that lung diseases affect more than 300 million people worldwide with high morbidity and mortality rates. In this short critical review, we discuss the potential benefits of photobiomodulation to treat lung diseases using these two approaches. The search was performed in the electronic database of MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) via PubMed. The data search was carried out from 1991 to 2017. We selected a total of 10 clinical studies using either ILIB or VPBM, in addition to 2 experimental studies in animals. The respiratory diseases treated in these studies included bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia, and tuberculosis. The results showed overall beneficial effects on lung diseases, characterized by a reduction in the inflammatory cascade and antioxidant effects, improvement of hemodynamic parameters, the efficiency of gas exchange, and reduction of hospitalization periods. In conclusion, all studies showed promising effects of ILIB in both animal and human studies. The studies did not discuss any disadvantages or contraindications. However, further studies are needed in order to understand the dosimetry, and the literature is lacking in randomized, controlled clinical trials. Thus, this review highlights the need for additional studies using this approach.

Introduction. One of the problems of domestic phthisiology is the low effectiveness of treatment, which, along with anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy, uses pathogenetic methods, including physiotherapy procedures. The use of several physical factors in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis shows great therapeutic effectiveness. However, there are not enough works highlighting the combined effects of physical factors in tuberculosis of the respiratory system, applied in successive courses, taking into account the phase of a specific process and the mechanisms of therapeutic effects of physical methods.The purpose of the study — is to demonstrate the effectiveness of consistent application of physiotherapy methods in the treatment of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.Materials and methods. The materials of the study were the medical records of the inpatient and the results of a comprehensive examination.Results and discussion. The presented clinical example demonstrates the effectiveness of consistent application of physiotherapy procedures in the complex treatment of a patient with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis. After 1 month from the start of treatment, accelerated positive clinical dynamics was noted, cessation of bacterial excretion, partial resorption of infiltrative changes in the lungs, by 2 months — closure of the decay cavities, after 4 months the patient was discharged with minimal radiological changes to continue treatment on an outpatient basis.Conclusion. Consistent application of physical factors can be one of the effective methods of improving the effectiveness of treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis, as demonstrated by the presented clinical examples. Further research is needed to substantiate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
