New advances in tissue engineering are being made through the application of different
types of electrical stimuli to influence cell proliferation and differentiation. Developments …

This volume evaluates possible carcinogenic hazards from exposures to static and
extremely low frequency (ELF) electric and magnetic fields. It is the first of two IARC …

Objectives: Direct current, capacitive coupling, and inductive coupling are modes of
electrical stimulation (ES) used to enhance bone healing. It is important to assess the …

Pseudarthrosis is an exceedingly common, costly, and morbid complication in the treatment
of long bone fractures and after spinal fusion surgery. Electrical bone growth stimulation …

The present study describes the effect of low frequency, low energy, pulsing electromagnetic
fields (PEMFs) on A2A adenosine receptors in human neutrophils. Saturation experiments …

Objective: To compare the effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) or pulsed
electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on fracture healing through a systematic review of original …

The present study was the first report demonstrating that pulsed electromagnetic field
(PEMF) could partially prevent bone strength and architecture deterioration and improve the …

BACKGROUND: Non-union following long bone fractures is a cause of significant morbidity
to the patient. The management of this condition has proved difficult for the orthopaedic …

Out of 238 million American adults, 100 million live in chronic pain. And yet the press has
paid more attention to the abuses of pain medications than the astoundingly widespread …

An in vitro model was set up to investigate the effects of low frequency pulsed
electromagnetic fields (PEMF) and its induced electric fields on osteoblast cells under …
