Efficacy of Low-dose Percutaneous Electrical Stimulation in Patients With Erectile Dysfunction.

Erectile dysfunction is known as any alteration that produces a modification in the erectile response, whether it is due to organic, psychogenic or relational causes. Peripheral percutaneous nerve stimulation is performed using a needle to stimulate the peripheral nerves in such a way as to stimulate most of the area of the structure, stimulating sensory and motor nerve endings in the deeper tissues.

Treatment With Peripheral Nerve Stimulation of the Pudendal Nerve in Patients With Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction is known as any alteration that produces a modification in the erectile response, whether of organic, psychogenic or relational cause. In this case the pudendal nerve is addressed, since it has its origin in the sacral plexus, deriving from the S2, S3 and S4 nerve branches. Its fibers have different innervation, being the pudendal nerve a mixed nerve, and estimating that it has 30% of autonomic innervation, and 70% of somatic innervation (50% sensory and 20% motor). Peripheral percutaneous nerve stimulation (proposed treatment) is performed with a needle to stimulate the peripheral nerves in such a way as to stimulate most of the area of the structure, stimulating sensory and motor nerve endings of the deeper tissues.

Effectiveness of Personalized Alternating Current Stimulation for Treating Cognitive Impairment in CNS Demyelination Patients

Background: Central nervous system inflammatory demyelinating diseases often lead to significant cognitive impairment, presenting a critical challenge in patient management. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of individualized transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) in improving cognitive function among patients with inflammatory demyelinating disorders. Methods: This study will assess cognitive performance through standardized neuropsychological assessments before and after individualized a one-time tES intervention, measuring changes in cognitive domains including working memory, attention, executive function, and processing speed. Anticipated Results: We hypothesize that personalized transcranial electrical stimulation will demonstrate significant improvements in cognitive performance, potentially offering a non-invasive therapeutic approach for managing cognitive decline in central nervous system inflammatory demyelinating diseases. Significance: This research may provide novel insights into neuromodulation strategies for cognitive rehabilitation in patients with complex neurological conditions.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation Effect Versus Myofascial Release on Quality of Life in Female Fibromyalgia

the study was done to investigate the effect of Electrical Muscle Stimulation as muscle strengthening versus the effect of myofascial releasing on quality of life in female fibromyalgia patients while following Mediterranean diet.

Observe Intestinal Tract Cleaness of Senile Constipation Patients Used Gastrointestinal External Stimulation

This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind controlled trial. Elderly patients with constipation requiring colonoscopy were randomly divided into four groups: 1. Received both gastrointestinal external stimulation and transcutaneouselectrical acupoint stimulation; 2. Received gastrointestinal external stimulation singly; 3. Received transcutaneouselectrical acupoint stimulation singly; 4. No stimulation was given. All groups received oral administration of polyethylene glycol for intestinal cleansing. Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) score was used to assess the quality of intestinal cleanliness , with a total score of 9, and higher scores indicating better intestinal cleanliness, and BBPS≥6 was defined effective.
