Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) treatment reduces expression of genes associated with disc degeneration in human intervertebral disc cells
Abstract BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapies have been applied to stimulate bone healing and to reduce the symptoms of arthritis, but the effects…
The effect of exposure to high flux density static and pulsed magnetic fields on lymphocyte function
Abstract We investigated whether a combination of static electromagnetic field (EMF) at a flux density of 4.75 T together with pulsed EMF at a flux…
Experiments showing that electromagnetic fields can be used to treat inflammatory diseases
Abstract While it is well known that electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can induce repair of non-healing bone fractures, EMF therapy remains confined to orthopedic clinics mainly…
Effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on forced swimming test
Abstract Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and electroconvulsive shock (ECS) have been shown to affect mood in health and disease. Evidence to date has demonstrated…
Slow transcranial magnetic stimulation, long-term depotentiation, and brain hyperexcitability disorders
Abstract OBJECTIVE: Many clinical syndromes in neuropsychiatry suggest focal brain activation. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been proposed as a method for selectively altering…
Right versus left prefrontal transcranial magnetic stimulation for obsessive-compulsive disorder: a preliminary investigation
Abstract BACKGROUND: There is preliminary evidence that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) may be useful for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), but no definitive…
PEMF therapy for people with osteoarthritis
This study was designed to determine whether pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMFT) could alleviate common symptoms of arthritis such as pain, swelling and immobility and…
