Microcirculatory effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields

Abstract PURPOSE: Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) are used clinically to expedite healing of fracture non-unions, however, the mechanism of action by which PEMF stimulation is…

Enhancing analogic reasoning with rTMS over the left prefrontal cortex

Abstract The authors utilized repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in 16 normal volunteers to investigate the role of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) in…

Improved executive functioning following repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

Abstract The cognitive effects of active and sham repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) were examined in 19 middle-aged and elderly patients with refractory depression. Patients…

Effect of pulsed magnetic fields on triglyceride and cholesterol levels in plasma of rats

Abstract Sexual dysfunction is common in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) since brain dopaminergic mechanisms are involved in the regulation of sexual behavior. Activation of…

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation induces active coping strategies and attenuates the neuroendocrine stress response in rats

Abstract The effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on various brain functions were investigated in adult male Wistar rats. The stimulation parameters were adjusted…

Effects of left frontal transcranial magnetic stimulation on depressed mood, cognition, and corticomotor threshold

Abstract BACKGROUND: The pathophysiology of depression may include synaptic hypoactivity of left prefrontal cortex. Several groups of investigators have described improved mood associated with rapid…

Age-related disruption of circadian rhythms: possible relationship to memory impairment and implications for therapy with magnetic fields

Abstract Disorganization of circadian rhythms, a hallmark of aging, may be related causally to the progressive deterioration of memory functions in senescence and possibly Alzheimer’s…

Evaluation of electromagnetic fields in the treatment of pain in patients with lumbar radiculopathy or the whiplash syndrome

Abstract Back pain and the whiplash syndrome are very common diseases involving tremendous costs and extensive medical effort. A quick and effective reduction of symptoms,…

Effect of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on late-phase osteotomy gap healing in a canine tibial model

Abstract The effects of a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on late bone healing phases using an osteotomy gap model in the canine mid-tibia were investigated.…

Protective effect of low frequency low energy pulsing electromagnetic fields on acute experimental myocardial infarcts in rats

Abstract This series of experiments assesses the effect of exposure to low-frequency pulsing electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) in 340 rats with acute experimental myocardial infarcts. The…
