Abstract
Chronic (2h/d × 8 weeks) exposure to magnetic field (MF; 50 Hz, 17.9 T) in complete spinal cord (T13) transected rats restored food intake (FI), water intake (WI) and body weight (BW) which were decreased in the spinal cord injured rats. The results suggest a significant beneficial effect of chronic exposure to magnetic field of paraplegic rats.
