Left Cervical Vagal Nerve Stimulation Reduces Skin Sympathetic Nerve Activity in Patients with Drug Resistant Epilepsy [PDF]

, 2017
Background We recently reported that skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) can be used to estimate sympathetic tone in humans. In animal models, vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) can damage the stellate ganglion, reduce stellate ganglion nerve activity ...

Time Series Analysis using Embedding Dimension on Heart Rate Variability [PDF]

, 2018
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is the measurement sequence with one or more visible variables of an underlying dynamic system, whose state changes with time. In practice, it is difficult to know what variables determine the actual dynamic system.

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation and emotional inhibition of return

, 2018
People suffering from chronic worries pay excessive attention to emotional information. In this study we examined whether a reduced ability to inhibit attention from fearful faces (i.e. inhibition of return; IOR) can be attributed to the low vagus nerve activity observed in high worriers.
