Effects of PEMF and LIPUS Therapy on the Expression of Genes Related to Peripheral Nerve Regeneration in Schwann Cells.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve regeneration remains a major challenge in neuroscience, despite advancements in understanding its mechanisms. Current treatments, including nerve transplantation and drug therapies, face limitations such as invasiveness and incomplete recovery of nerve function. Physical therapies, like pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) and low-intensity ultrasound (LIPUS), are gaining attention for their potential to enhance regeneration. This study analyzes the effects of PEMF and LIPUS on gene expression in human primary Schwann cells, which are crucial for nerve myelination and repair. Key genes involved in neurotrophin signaling (NGF, BDNF), inflammation (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, TGF-β), and regeneration (CRYAB, CSPG, Ki67) were assessed. The results of this study reveal that combined PEMF and LIPUS therapies promote Schwann cell proliferation, reduce inflammation, and improve the regenerative environment, offering potential for optimizing these therapies for clinical use in regenerative medicine.
