Question
Answer
Allen   Cardiovascular Reactivity and the Presence of Pets, Friends, and Spouses: The Truth About Cats and Dogs  
🗑
Purpose = examine the effects of the presence of friends, spouses, and pets on cardiovascular reactivity to psychological and physical stress   Allen  
🗑
Results = people with pets had significantly lower HR and BP levels during a resting baseline, significantly smaller increases from baseline levels during the mental arithmetic and cold pressor, and faster recovery. Among pet owners, the lowest reactivity   Allen  
🗑
Conclusions = People perceive pets as important, supportive parts of their lives, and significant cardiovascular and behavioral benefits are associated with those perceptions   Allen  
🗑
Valbona   Response of Pain to Static Magnetic Fields in Postpolio Patients  
🗑
Purpose = determine if the chronic pain frequently presented by postpolio patients can be relieved by application of magnetic fields applied directly over an identified pain trigger point   Valbona  
🗑
Results = The proportion of patients in the active-device group who reported a pain score decrease greater than the average placebo effect was 76%, compared with 19% in the placebo-device group   Valbona  
🗑
Conclusions = The application of a device delivering static magnetic fields of 300 to 500 Gauss over a pain trigger point results in significant and prompt relief of pain in postpolio subjects.   Valbona  
🗑
Winemiller   Effect of Magnetic vs Sham-Magnetic Insoles on Plantar heel pain  
🗑
Purpose = To determine whether magnetic insoles provide greater subjective improvement for treatment of plantar heel pain compared with identical nonmagnetized insoles.   Winemiller  
🗑
Results = No significance between-group differences were found on any outcome variables studied when comparing active vs sham magnets.   Winemiller  
🗑
Conclusions = Static bipolar magnets embedded in cushioned shoe insoles do not provide additional benefit for subjective plantar heel pain reduction when compared with nonmagnetic insoles.   Winemiller  
🗑
Clift   The Effect of Monochromatic Infrared Energy on Sensation in Patients With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy  
🗑
Purpose = The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of monochromatic infrared energy (MIRE) on plantar sensation in subjects with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.   Clift  
🗑
Results = There were no significant differences between active and placebo groups at any measurement.   Clift  
🗑
Conclusions = Thirty minutes of active MIRE applied 3 days per week for 4 weeks was no more effective than placebo MIRE in increasing sensation in subjects with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Clinicians should be aware that MIRE may not be an effective m   Clift  
🗑
Leonard   Restoration of Sensation, Reduced Pain, and Improved Balance in Subjects With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy  
🗑
Purpose = We initiated this study to determine whether treatments with the ATS (anodyne therapy system) would decrease pain and or improve sensation diminished due to DPN under a sham-controlled, double-blind protocol.pain and   Leonard  
🗑
Results = Pain reported on the 10-point visual analog scale decreased progressively from 4.2 at entry to 3.2 after 6 treatments and to 2.3 after 12 treatments. At entry, 90% of subjects reported substantial balance impairment; after treatment, this decre   Leonard  
🗑
Conclusions = ATS treatments improve sensation in the feet of subjects with DPN, improve balance, and reduce pain.   Leonard  
🗑
