Safety of the magnetic field generated by a neuronal magnetic stimulator: evaluation of possible mutagenic effects
Abstract OBJECTIVE: The possible mutagenicity of a magnetic stimulus was checked using the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 as tester strains. METHODS:…
Pain relief induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of precentral cortex
Abstract Chronic electrical stimulation of the precentral (motor) cortex using surgically implanted electrodes is performed to treat medication-resistant neurogenic pain. The goal of this placebo-controlled…
Differential intensity-dependent effects of magnetic stimulation on the longest neurites and shorter dendrites in neuroscreen-1 cells
Abstract OBJECTIVE: Magnetic stimulation (MS) is a potential treatment for neuropsychiatric disorders. This study investigates whether MS-regulated neuronal activity can translate to specific changes in…
Therapeutic efficacy of bilateral prefrontal slow repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in depressed patients with Parkinson’s disease: an open study
Abstract Recent studies have suggested that both high- and low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) have antidepressant effects in patients with major depression. We conducted…
Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the cerebellum in essential tremor: a controlled study
Abstract BACKGROUND: Growing evidence implicates an overactivity of the cerebellum in the pathophysiology of essential tremor. In a small series of patients, we explored the…
Attenuation of interleukin-1beta by pulsed electromagnetic fields after traumatic brain injury
Abstract Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in civilian and military populations. Interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine with…
The effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the patients with Parkinson’s disease [Japanese]
Abstract The 1-Hz rTMS of 320 stimuli with an intensity of 90% of motor threshold was applied over the vertex of the skull using a…
A multivariate approach to the treatment of peripheral nerve transection injury: the role of electromagnetic field therapy
Abstract A multivariate approach to the treatment of peripheral nerve transection injury has been used in a rat model. A pilot study (48 animals, 8…
Contralateral and ipsilateral repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in Parkinson patients [German]
Abstract In seven women and two men with Parkinson’s disease, Hoehn and Yahr stage 1 or 2, the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)…
Effectiveness of magnetotherapy in optic nerve atrophy. A preliminary study [Russian]
Abstract Magnetotherapy effects on visual functions (vision acuity and field), on retinal bioelectric activity, on conductive vision system, and on intraocular circulation were studied in…
