Effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on cytokines in peripheral blood for healthy participants: a prospective, single‐blinded Study

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: The effect of exercise on cytokines may improve muscle strength. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a muscle-preserving therapy that benefits patients unable to participate in active exercise. How NMES alters cytokines is unclear. The aim of this study was to study the effects of 1 NMES session on cytokines associated with protein metabolism during exercise. METHODS: We evaluated the effects of NMES on IL-1, IL-6, …
