Electrical Stimulation Therapy for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

open access: yesJournal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 2014
Electrical stimulation therapy (EST) of the lower esophageal sphincter is a relatively new technique for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) that may address the need of GERD patients, unsatisfied with acid suppressive medication and concerned with the potential risks of surgical fundoplication.

Pain-motor integration in the primary motor cortex in Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In Parkinson's disease (PD), the influence of chronic pain on motor features has never been investigated. We have recently designed a technique that combines nociceptive system activation by laser stimuli and primary motor cortex (M1) activation through ...

Generation of direct current electrical fields as regenerative therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

open access: yesAPL Bioengineering, 2023
Electrical stimulation (ES) shows promise as a therapy to promote recovery and regeneration after spinal cord injury. ES therapy establishes beneficial electric fields (EFs) and has been investigated in numerous studies, which date back nearly a century.

The science of electrical stimulation therapy for fracture healing

open access: yesIndian Journal of Orthopaedics, 2009
This article is a brief review of the basic science research conducted in the field of electrical stimulation for fracture healing. Direct electrical current, capacitive coupling, and inductive coupling have been studied as potential techniques to enhance fracture healing through the proliferation and differentiation of osteogenic cells.
