  2. Medical applications of radio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_applications_of...

    Diathermy equipment typically operates in the short-wave radio frequency (range 1–100 MHz) or microwave energy (range 434–915 MHz). [citation needed] Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) is a medical treatment that purportedly helps to heal bone tissue reported in a recent NASA study. This method usually employs electromagnetic ...

  3. Diathermy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diathermy

    Diathermy is produced by two techniques: short-wave radio frequencies in the range 1–100 MHz (shortwave diathermy) or microwaves typically in the 915 MHz or 2.45 GHz bands (microwave diathermy), the methods differing mainly in their penetration capability. [4] [5] [6] It exerts physical effects and elicits a spectrum of physiological responses.

    NDRIs are used clinically in the treatment of conditions including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), narcolepsy, and depression. Examples of well-known NDRIs include methylphenidate and bupropion. A closely related type of drug is a norepinephrine–dopamine releasing agent (NDRA).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_depressive_episode

    About 20–25% of individuals with a chronic general medical condition will develop major depression. [5] Common comorbid disorders include eating disorders, substance-related disorders, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Up to 25% of people who experience a major depressive episode have a pre-existing dysthymic disorder. [5]

  8. Biology of depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biology_of_depression

    Depression may be related to abnormalities in the circadian rhythm, [22] or biological clock. A well synchronized circadian rhythm is critical for maintaining optimal health . Adverse changes and alterations in the circadian rhythm have been associated with various neurological disorders and mood disorders including depression.

  9. Bioelectromagnetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectromagnetics

    Bioelectromagnetics, also known as bioelectromagnetism, is the study of the interaction between electromagnetic fields and biological entities. Areas of study include electromagnetic fields produced by living cells, tissues or organisms, the effects of man-made sources of electromagnetic fields like mobile phones, and the application of electromagnetic radiation toward therapies for the ...
