概要 This study evaluated the impact of whole body vibration (WBV) on sensory and motor nerves in rats with sciatic nerve injuries. Twenty-one female Wistar rats were subjected to nerve-crush injuries on the left sciatic nerve and divided into a control group (n=9) and a WBV group (n=12). The WBV group received vibratory stimulation (50 Hz, 20 min/day, 5 times/week) while walking in their cages, unlike the control group. Sensory thresholds and motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) were measured to assess nerve function. While no significant differences were found in sensory thresholds, MEP latencies were notably shorter in the WBV group at 4 and 6 weeks post-surgery. Additionally, there was a significant increase in hind-limb and gastrocnemius dimensions and weight in the WBV group. The study concludes that WBV accelerates the recovery of motor nerve components in sciatic nerve injury model rats.
