The Effects Of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation Applied in the Early Postpartum Period After Cesarean Birth on Healing, Pain, and Comfort
This study was conducted to determine the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) applied in the early postpartum period after cesarean birth on incision site healing, postoperative recovery, pain, and comfort.MethodsThis randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted with 138 women (TENS group n = 46, placebo group n = 46, control group n = 46) who gave birth by cesarean between January and September 2023. TENS was applied twice at a frequency of 100 Hz with a pulse width of 100 microseconds, at 10 to 12 and 14 to 16 hours after birth, for 30 minutes each. Outcomes were measured wit...

Treatment of Women with Primary Dysmenorrhea with Manual Therapy and Electrotherapy Techniques: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Manual therapy and electrotherapy are effective for the treatment of women with primary dysmenorrhea. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation combined with thermotherapy and effleurage massage stands out for its effects on the intensity and duration of pain with the application of a few sessions and their long-term effects.IMPACT: Manual therapy techniques and electrotherapy methods reduce the pain intensity of women with primary dysmenorrhea. Quality of life and degree of anxiety improved significantly with manual therapy interventions. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation combined with thermothera...

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in the management of restless legs syndrome symptoms: A single-blind, parallel-group clinical study
J Sleep Res. 2024 Feb 15:e14167. doi: 10.1111/jsr.14167. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe aim of this study was to investigate the additional effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on the control of the symptoms of restless legs syndrome (RLS). A total of 46 randomly selected patients diagnosed with RLS were divided into two groups in a single-blind study to either receive pramipexole (0.25 mg daily) plus 10 sessions of TENS or only pramipexole (0.25 mg daily) for 4 weeks. The severity of the symptoms was determined according to the International Restless Legs Syndrome Rating Scale (IRLSRS) and the P...

Efficacy of cranial electrotherapy stimulation in patients with burning mouth syndrome: a randomized, controlled, double-blind pilot study
ConclusionAlthough CES is an easily applicable and safe therapeutic option for chronic facial pain, active stimulation was not superior to sham stimulation. Among other reasons, this could be due to the short double-blinded treatment period, duration of the daily stimulation session or the small sample size. (Source: Frontiers in Neurology)

Myocentric relation in an additive esthetic rehabilitation within a fully digital workflow
Int J Esthet Dent. 2024 Jan 29;19(1):74-90.ABSTRACTIn recent years, tooth wear has been a growing concern in dentistry as it has become increasingly prevalent among the population. At the same time, the development of adhesive techniques has enabled minimally invasive treatment protocols, with the goal of preserving and protecting teeth for as long as possible. This clinical report presents the case of a full-mouth rehabilitation patient with tooth wear who was treated using minimally invasive techniques. Esthetic and functional outcomes were designed and monitored using digital tools such as digital impressions, 3D facial...
