Effects of high-peak pulsed electromagnetic field on the degeneration and regeneration of the common peroneal nerve in rats
Abstract Apart from preliminary notices of present work, previous reports of experimental and clinical trials of the effects of a high-peak pulsedelectromagnetic field (PEMF) on…
Pretreatment of rats with pulsed electromagnetic fields enhances regeneration of the sciatic nerve
Abstract Regeneration of the sciatic nerve was studied in rats pretreated in a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF). The rats were exposed between a pair of…
Effects of a pulsed electromagnetic therapy on multiple sclerosis fatigue and quality of life: a double-blind, placebo controlled trial
Abstract CONTEXT: There is a growing literature on the biological and clinical effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields. Some studies suggest that electromagnetic therapies may be…
A study of the effects of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy with respect to serological grouping in rheumatoid arthritis
Abstract The positive role of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is known. The differential role of serological status of patients in…
Sleep deprivation in depression stabilizing antidepressant effects by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation
Abstract Partial sleep deprivation (PSD) has a profound and rapid effect on depressed mood. However, the transient antidepressant effect of PSD – most patients relapse…
PEMF may improve fatigue associated with multiple sclerosis
Abstract Fatigue is the most common symptom of multiple sclerosis. 75%-90% of patients with multiple sclerosis report having fatigue, and 50%-60% describe it as the…
Applications of transcranial magnetic stimulation in movement disorders
Abstract The author reviews the applications of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in a series of movement disorders–namely, Parkinson’s disease, corticobasal degeneration, multiple system atrophy, progressive…
Exposure to oscillating magnetic fields influences sensitivity to electrical stimuli. II. Experiments on humans
Abstract To assess the effect of a magnetic treatment on pain perception, we compared the sensory threshold in 18 healthy volunteers. We determined the threshold…
Impulse magnetic-field therapy for migraine and other headaches: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study
Abstract This double-blind, placebo-controlled study assessed the efficacy of 4 weeks of impulse magnetic-field therapy (16 Hz, 5 microTs), delivered through a small device, for…
Protection against focal cerebral ischemia following exposure to a pulsed electromagnetic field
Abstract There is evidence that electromagnetic stimulation may accelerate the healing of tissue damage following ischemia. We undertook this study to investigate the effects of…
