About

Current stimulation induces microvascular dilation in human skin. The investigators aimed to study (1) whether the current vasodilation is amplified after two segmental current stimulation as compared to one stimulation; (2) whether this amplification relies on prostaglandin-sensitive mechanisms. A double-blind randomized placebo-controlled crossover trial is conducted in Angers, France.
