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…
A comparative study of the effects of magnetic stimulation and electric stimulation on peripheral nerve injury in rat
Abstract The influence of pulsed magnetic stimulation (MS) on the sciatic nerve injury was investigated. Thirty rats were divided into three groups equally: MS group…
Outcomes after posterolateral lumbar fusion with instrumentation in patients treated with adjunctive pulsed electromagnetic field stimulation
Abstract Fusion success and clinical outcome were determined in 48 high-risk patients who underwent posterolateral lumbar fusions with internal fixation and were treated with adjunctive…
Effects of pulsed magnetic energy on a microsurgically transferred vessel
Abstract This article reports the findings of a study that attempted to elucidate whether pulsed magnetic energy stimulates neovascularization in vivo, using a microsurgically created…
Repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation alleviates tactile extinction
Abstract Despite its frequency in right brain damaged patients crucial mechanisms of tactile extinction are still obscure and treatments are unavailable. Recent PET observations suggest…
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…
