Abstract:
:Transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation relieves chronic and acute pain by blocking the transmission of pain impulses with comfortable electrical stimulation of light touch sensation. The original Gate Control Theory of Melzack and Wall provides a working model to explain the significant pain relief afforded patients. As high as 80% of selected patients presenting with a wide variety of causes could achieve some relief after treatment. This comfortable, safe method is finding wide application in clinical practice.

杂志文章abstract::To determine whether inappropriate surgical procedures based on an initial misdiagnosis affected recurrence and survival rates, we retrospectively reviewed the surgical treatment and results of 117 patients with high-grade osteosarcomas treated from January 1, 1990 to December 31, 2000. Nine patients had intralesional...
