This study looks questionable.
It seems just as likely that TNS isn't particularly sensitive to the frequency and pulse width.
It also looks like a lot of the researchers have funding from pharmaceutical companies.
In this case sham is British for placebo. Only the control group got the “sham tns”.
I realise that, my point is that the "sham TNS" may be acting as active TNS.
They found no improvement in either group, so no.
