• 📄 Activation of Deep Lumbar Stabilizing Muscles by Transcutaneous Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation

  This study evaluates the effect of transcutaneous neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on the activation of deep lumbar stabilizing muscles including lumbar multifidus (LM), transverse abdominis (TrA), and obliquus internus (OI). Using real-time ultrasound imaging (RUSI), the study found that NMES applied to L4-L5 paraspinal regions significantly increased the thickness of these muscles, indicating successful activation. The findings support the use of NMES as a clinical tool for improving spinal stability in patients with low back pain or weak deep muscle activation.

• 📄 Triple-Target Treatment Versus Low-Frequency Electrostimulation for Anal Incontinence

  This randomized controlled trial demonstrated that Triple-Target Treatment (3T), which combines amplitude-modulated medium-frequency stimulation and EMG biofeedback, significantly outperforms low-frequency stimulation (LFS) in improving anal incontinence. After 6 months of treatment, 54% of patients in the 3T group regained continence, compared to 0% in the LFS group.
