PEMF Research Articles, Studies and Trials
Electromagnetic fields and magnets. Investigational treatment for musculoskeletal disorders
Abstract Certain pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) affect the growth of bone and cartilage in vitro, with potential application as an arthritis treatment. PEMF stimulation is…
Effects of static magnetic and pulsed electromagnetic fields on bone healing
Abstract The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the healing pattern of an experimentally induced osteotomy in Hartley guinea pigs in the presence…
Treatment of delayed unions and nonunions of the proximal fifth metatarsal with pulsed electromagnetic fields
Abstract Nine delayed unions and nonunion of the proximal fifth metatarsal were treated with pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF). All fractures healed in a mean time…
Early application of pulsed electromagnetic field in the treatment of postoperative delayed union of long-bone fractures: a prospective randomized controlled study
Abstract BACKGROUND Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) is reported to be an effective adjunct for the management of nonunion long-bone fractures. Most studies implement PEMF treatment…
Electromagnetic fields influence NGF activity and levels following sciatic nerve transection
Abstract Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) have been shown to increase the rate of nerve regeneration. Transient post-transection loss of target-derived nerve growth factor (NGF) is…
Spine fusion for discogenic low back pain: outcomes in patients treated with or without pulsed electromagnetic field stimulation
Abstract Sixty-one randomly selected patients who underwent lumbar fusion surgeries for discogenic low back pain between 1987 and 1994 were retrospectively studied. All patients had…
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…
