High-frequency electrical stimulation can be a complementary therapy to promote nerve regeneration in diabetic rats.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether 1 mA of percutaneous electrical stimulation (ES) at 0, 2, 20, or 200 Hz augments regeneration between the proximal and distal nerve stumps in streptozotocin diabetic rats.
