Mechanisms of Action of Low-Frequency Pulsed Magnetic Fields in Pain Control.
Review in Bioengineering (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Low-frequency pulsed magnetic fields (LFPMFs) are a recently developed modality for managing pain and promoting wound healing. The term LFPMF is used to describe low-intensity fields in wound and tissue studies, and is referred to as magnetic peripheral nerve stimulation (mPNS) in pain-related studies. The recent clearance of the first mPNS device for treating pain due to diabetic neuropathy by the FDA marks a watershed event in the clinical acceptance of these modalities. In addition to being within the frequency range of 0.5-100 Hz, the use of electromagnetic fields rather than electrical current, which dissipates in tissues, results in several therapeutic advantages of magnetic fields. These fields permeate tissues and affect a larger area.
