- B.F. Sisken et al.: 'Acute Treatment with PEMF and its Effect on fast Axonal Transport in Normal and Regenerating Nerve, ' Centre for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky. J Neuroscience Res. 42/5, 1995. - This study investigates how low-frequency electromagnetic fields can stimulate the growth and regeneration of peripheral nerves after a serious injury. It was found in experiments on rats that regeneration was faster after severing the sciatic nerve, but the reason for this was not accelerated axonal transport.

Walker et al.: 'Enhancement of Functional Recovery Following a Crush Lesion to the Rat Sciatic Nerve by Exposure to Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields,' Division of Orthopedic Surgery, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Shriners Hospitals for Crippled Children, Lexington. Exp Neurol, 1994 February, 125 (2): 302:5. - This study showed that pulsating electromagnetic fields are capable of improving regeneration of the nerve axon by 22%. This study confirms that PEMF is an appropriate method for functional recovery after a nerve injury.
- M. Kanje et al.: 'Pretreatment of Rats with Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields Enhances Regeneration of the Sciatic Nerve,' Department of Animal Physiology, University of Lund. Bioelectromagnetics, 1993. - In this study, regeneration of an injured sciatic nerve was investigated in rats under the influence of electromagnetic fields. Regeneration of axons of the sciatic nerve was evaluated with various tests. It was found that nerve cells are regenerated much faster under PEMF.

Zienowicz et al.: 'A Multivariate Approach to the Treatment of Peripheral Nerve Transection Injury: the role of electromagnetic field therapy,' University of Massachusetts Medical School, Berkshire Medical Centre, Pittsfield, Plast Reconstr Surg 1991 January, 87 (1): 122-9. - In this study, various combinations with PEMF were investigated. The results were so impressive that the author concluded that PEMF should be included in the fixed treatment programs after nerve injuries and surgery.
