Knee OA: Efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field and pulsed surface electrode treatments .
This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.

Dr. Negm touches on the efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field and pulsed surface electrode treatments in knee OA.
Data from 7 randomized controlled trials from 1994 to 2011, assessing 456 patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA), were pooled to evaluate the efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) and pulsed surface electrodes (PES) treatment methods. Pain, physical function, adverse events and quality of evidence were assessed. The results presented in this meta-analysis/ systematic review demonstrated that treatment using PEMF/PES resulted in improved assessed physical function but did not reduce pain.
