Abstract

Purpose: Low-induction variable magnetic fields are widely used in various fields of medicine. However, it is worth raising the issue whether treatments using low-induction variable magnetic fields applied to patients can affect the condition of tattooed skin.

Methods: In the study, 24 volunteers were enrolled (12 men and 12 women) their age range was 30-60 years (average age: 43 years), they were assigned to two groups. The study group included people with a black ink (7 people) or colored (5 people) tattoo on the skin of the upper limb. The control group included 12 participants without tattoos. The participants were exposed to variable magnetic field with low magnetic induction value applied to the upper limb area, in form of magnetostimulation procedures performed once a day, 5 days a week for 3 weeks. Using an original questionnaire, it was assessed whether the subjects experienced any disturbing symptoms related to the physical treatments during and after the treatments.

Results: After the magnetic stimulation, 2 patients from the study group (with a colored tattoo) indicated that during the procedures they felt a feeling of warmth and slight itching of the skin in the place of exposure to magnetic field. In the control group, no side effects of the procedures were noted. Dermatological evaluation did not reveal any pathological changes in the skin area exposed to magnetic field in any participant from both groups.

Conclusions: Treatments using low-induction variable magnetic fields in people with tattoos did not show any significant adverse effects on the skin in the tattoo area exposed to the magnetic field.

低磁感应强度变磁场与人体文身的相互作用——单中心观察性初步研究。
用途:低感应变磁场广泛应用于医学的各个领域。然而,值得提出的问题是,使用低感应可变磁场对患者进行治疗是否会影响纹身皮肤的状况。方法:选取年龄30 ~ 60岁(平均43岁)的志愿者24人,分为两组,男12人,女12人。研究小组包括上肢皮肤上有黑色纹身(7人)或彩色纹身(5人)的人。对照组包括12名没有纹身的参与者。参与者在上肢区域暴露于低磁感应值的可变磁场,以磁刺激程序的形式进行,每天一次,每周5天,持续3周。使用原始问卷,评估受试者在治疗期间和治疗后是否经历任何与物理治疗相关的令人不安的症状。结果:研究组有2例(有彩色纹身)患者在磁刺激后表示,在磁刺激过程中,在磁场暴露处皮肤有温暖感和轻微瘙痒。在对照组中,没有注意到手术的副作用。皮肤病学评估未发现两组参与者暴露在磁场下的皮肤区域有任何病理变化。结论:在纹身人群中使用低感应可变磁场治疗对暴露在磁场下的纹身区域的皮肤没有任何明显的不良影响。

期刊介绍: Aims & Scope: Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine, publishes peer-reviewed research articles on the biological effects and medical applications of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields (from extremely-low frequency to radiofrequency). Topic examples include in vitro and in vivo studies, epidemiological investigation, mechanism and mode of interaction between non-ionizing electromagnetic fields and biological systems. In addition to publishing original articles, the journal also publishes meeting summaries and reports, and reviews on selected topics.
