Abstract:
Background:
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most common degenerative diseases that can lead to disability and pain. The
degenerative nature of this condition cannot be reversed or healed by any currently available treatments.
Recently, there has been an upcoming interest in treating degenerative tissue disorders with minimally invasive autologous
blood products. Autologous blood was preconditioned with gold particles to encourage the production of various proteins
in patients’ blood.
This current study investigated the safety and efficacy of pre-conditioning autologous blood with gold particles
(GOLDIC®) in patients with severe knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
Case presentation
We report a case in which four intra-articular GOLDIC® injections were used to treat knee osteoarthritis. After a week,
physiotherapy was recommended. Before and three weeks after the injections, she was assessed for her weight, the Visual
Analog Scale (VAS), and the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score.
GOLDIC® treatment resulted in significant weight, VAS, and WOMAC score improvements without serious side effects.
Conclusion
Due to the one-time blood harvesting and only four injections, the initial results demonstrated that the treatment plan is
safe, less expensive, patient-friendly, and more successful at achieving compliance. This GOLDIC® treatment can
significantly decrease pain and improve knee capability with overall satisfaction over a significant period.
To fully validate the real potential of GOLDIC® in heterogeneous patient populations and to compare these promising
results to other blood-based platforms, future randomized-controlled trials with long-term follow-up are required, despite
the promising early clinical results.

Introduction
Seborrheic dermatitis is a common skin condition that mostly affects the
scalp. It causes scaly patches, itchy skin, and chronic dandruff. It
primarily affects the oily areas of the body, such as the cheeks, sides of
the nose, brows, ears, eyelids, and chest. This ailment can be annoying,
although it is not contagious and can cause hair loss at first. Seborrheic
dermatitis may resolve spontaneously. To reduce symptoms and prevent
flare-ups, you may need to use medicated shampoo or other things on a
long-term basis. Seborrheic dermatitis is also known as dandruff,
seborrheic eczema, and seborrheic psoriasis. It is known as cradle cap
when it appears in infants. Seborrheic dermatitis is a common chronic
inflammatory skin condition that affects 11.6% of the general population
and up to 70% of infants in their first few months of life. It can have an
effect on the psyche and quality of life of people who are in a chronic
relapsing cycle. Chronic skin disorders can have both physical and
emotional consequences on one's life, such as discomfort, stigma, loss of
self-esteem, and limitations in social activities. Some have a similar
detrimental impact on quality of life to cardiovascular disease.
Scalp pruritus and seborrheic dermatitis scales might contribute to social
isolation. It has been reported that exposing these people to stressful
conditions worsens their depressive symptoms. However, there has been
