AI simplified
Abstract
Five out of seven patients experienced an overall reduction in symptoms of up to 61% following treatment.
- Transcranial pulsating low-frequency electromagnetic stimulation (T-PEMF) was assessed for its feasibility and tolerability in patients with .
- All seven participants completed the 5-week treatment regimen, indicating high compliance.
- Two patients reported a worsening of symptoms during the treatment period.
