Fast cycle of vagus nerve stimulation is associated with increased sleep‐related breathing disorder in patients with epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to study the association between vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) parameters and the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) measured by polysomnography in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Methods Patients with epilepsy who underwent polysomnography with an active VNS device between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively ...

A call for the aggressive treatment of oligometastatic and oligo-recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. [PDF]

, 2012
Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) carries a dismal prognosis. Clinical evidence suggests the existence of an intermediate, or oligometastatic, state when metastases are limited in number and/or location.
