Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy: Quantitative Assessments of Mechanical Responses upon Radial Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (Adv. Sci. 3/2018)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2018
Radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) has been widely used to treat orthopedic disorders and has shown promising clinical results. However, treatments largely rely on clinicians' personal experiences and arbitrary judgments. In article number 1700797, Xiaodong Chen and co‐workers develop a combined experimental and numerical methodology to ...

The Effect of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy in Tendinopathy: A Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 10, Page 2060-2082, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In recent years, numerous meta‐analyses have been published on the effectiveness of ESWT in treating various tendinopathies. However, due to limitations such as the small number of included studies, it remains unclear whether ESWT is definitively effective for all types of tendinopathies and what its comparative value is relative to

Shockwave Therapy or Acupoint Stimulation Combined With Physiotherapy for Spasticity and Motor Function in Post‐Stroke Recovery: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Stroke frequently causes spasticity and motor impairment, reducing independence. Non‐invasive treatments like radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and acupoint‐based transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (Acu‐TENS) show potential, but direct comparisons with physiotherapy are limited.
