The effect of repetitive electrical field stimulation and the response of the guinea-pig and rat ileal longitudinal muscle to single pulse stimulations was examined. Single pulse field stimulation produced twitch contraction which was inhibited by repetitive field stimulation (10 Hz, 40V, 0.5 msec for 5 m). This inhibition was largely, though never completely, reversed by naloxone. Contrac...

transcranial magnetic stimulation (tms) has been applied to a growing number of psychiatric disorders as a neurophysiological probe, a primary brain-mapping tool and a candidate treatment. although most investigations have focused on the treatment of major depression, increasing attention has been paid to anxiety disorders. the aim of this study is to long time (for 30 days) effect of repetitiv...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to evaluate whether intra-canal application of controlled direct electric current (dec) could accelerate the amount of orthodontic tooth movement (otm) in young adult mixed breed dogs. methods: fourth premolars of both jaws of five young adult mixed breed dogs were divided into two groups of control and experimental groups. orthodontic force was applied...

background: the use of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (tens) in dentistry was fi rstdescribed in 1967, by shane and kessler, but it has yet to gain widespread acceptance in dentistry. a study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of tens therapy as an adjuvant modality and to compare it with the conventional medication in controlling pain in temporomandibular disorder (tmd) ...

The bio-stimulation technique offers a potentially useful and practical way for reproductive performance in rams. Reports on how bio-stimulation affects sexual potency rams are scarce: Knowledge of how rams respond to bio-stimulation is useful for persons who involved in semen collection; "hand" (controlled) mating, and the administration of sexual performance evaluations. The reduction of the ...
