Unlocking new Frontiers: The cellular and molecular impact of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on central nervous system (CNS) disorders and peripheral nerve injuries (PNI).

Neurological disorders encompassing both central nervous system (CNS) diseases and peripheral nerve injuries (PNI), represent significant challenges in modern clinical practice. Conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injuries, and carpal tunnel syndrome can cause debilitating impairments, leading to reduced quality of life and placing a heavy burden on healthcare systems. Current treatment strategies, including pharmacological interventions and surgical procedures, often yield limited results, and many patients experience suboptimal outcomes or treatment-associated risks.
