title: [Normalizing effect of rehabilitative techniques on the psychoemotional status of patients with inflammatory and degenerative joint diseases].
abstract: 120 subjects with a verified diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and 94 ones with osteoarthrosis (OA) were examined to evaluate the influence of structural electromagnetic resonance therapy (SEMRT) on psychological status of patients suffering from both inflammatory and dystrophic joint diseases. Spielberger test for situational and personal anxiety and Beck test for depression were used to detect and assess changes in the patients' psychological condition. Comparative studies demonstrated advantages of incorporation of SEMRT in combined RA and OA treatment. Wide spectrum of SEMRT therapeutic actions accounts for its beneficial action in patients presenting with anxiety and depressive disorders associated with inflammatory and dystrophic joint diseases highly refractory to routine treatment.
