Article Synopsis
- Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) used in magnetotherapy operate below 100 Hz and have low magnetic field intensities, showing promise in treating conditions like skin diseases and inflammation.
- A study exposed human skin cells (fibroblasts) to ELF-EMFs for 1.5 hours and found no change in cell viability, but a significant decrease in cell proliferation 24 hours later.
- Increased expression of tubulin, a protein linked to cell structure, suggests that ELF-EMF exposure may trigger changes in cell behavior or development processes.
Seven healthy male volunteers were studied to test the effect of timing of an oral protein load on renal function. Creatinine clearance (Ccr) was measured during the 4-h period after administration of 72 g of protein in the form of cooked red meat at 1200 hours (lunch protein load, PL) and at 2000 hours (supper PL) the next evening. A low-protein meal in the form of vegetables was given as a control load at 2000 hours on the first day (supper control load, CL) and at 1200 hours on the second day (lunch CL).
