Left or right ear? A neuroimaging study using combined taVNS/fMRI to understand the interaction between ear stimulation target and lesion location in chronic stroke

open access: yesBrain Stimulation, 2023
Background: Implanted vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) and transcutaneous auricular VNS (taVNS) have been primarily administered clinically to the unilateral-left vagus nerve.

Microstructures and Properties of TiSiN/TaVN Nanomultilayers with Various V Contents

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023
Abstract The purpose of this study was to optimize V content of TiSiN/TaVN nanomultilayers. TiSiN/TaVN nanomultilayers with various V contents were deposited on 304 stainless steels and Si wafers. The structures and properties of TiSiN/TaVN nanomultilayers were analyzed and characterized.

Cerebral Hemodynamic Correlates of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagal Nerve Stimulation in Consciousness Restoration: An Open-Label Pilot Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
This study aimed to preliminarily illustrate the cerebral hemodynamic correlates of transcutaneous auricular vagal nerve stimulation (taVNS) in consciousness restoration. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) was adopted with functional magnetic resonance imaging

A pilot study assessing neurophysiological and cardiovascular effects of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation in healthy subjects and patients with restless legs syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Background: Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is an auspicious neurostimulation technique intensively investigated for its potential antidepressant, anticonvulsive, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

The effect of taVNS on the cerebello-thalamo-cortical pathway: a TMS study

open access: yesThe Cerebellum, 2023
Abstract Background: fMRI studies show activation of cerebellum during transcutaneous auricular vagal nerve stimulation (taVNS), however there is no evidence whether taVNS induced activation of the cerebellum translates to the cerebellar closed loops involved in motor functions. Objective/Hypothesis: We assessed the propensity of taVNS at 25Hz

Effects of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation paired with tones on electrophysiological markers of auditory perception

open access: yesBrain Stimulation, 2023
Background: Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) has been introduced as a non-invasive alternative to invasive vagus nerve stimulation (iVNS).

Brain Functional Mechanisms Determining the Efficacy of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Primary Insomnia

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) has been reported to be effective in the treatment of primary insomnia (PI); however, its efficacy varies considerably across individuals for reasons that are unclear.

Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation with concurrent upper limb repetitive task practice for poststroke motor recovery: A pilot study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Invasive vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has the potential to enhance the effects of physiotherapy for upper limb motor recovery after stroke. Noninvasive, transcutaneous auricular branch VNS (taVNS) may have similar benefits, but this has not been ...

Altered functional connectivity of the thalamus in patients with insomnia disorder after transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
The pathogenesis of insomnia is related to the dysfunction of the thalamus. Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) has proved to be effective in treating insomnia.
