Forced normalization after turning off vagus nerve stimulation in Lennox–Gastaut syndrome
Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2019 Forced normalization is the development of psychiatric symptoms in a patient experiencing remission of seizures. We present a case of Lennox Gastaut syndrome in which forced normalization developed after vagus nerve stimulation was stopped.The patient ...

Physiology & Behavior, 2004 This paper reviews the experiments, which demonstrate conclusively the involvement of the abdominal vagus nerve in normal expression of most aspects of thirst in rats, by Gerard P. Smith and his colleagues published between 1975 and 1984. The nature of that vagal contribution differs with the type of primary thirst signal.

Fetal topography of branches of the cervical and thoracic divisions of the vagus nerves
Zaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2020 The study of age and individual anatomical variability of vagus nerves and their branches in different age periods of human ontogenesis causes interest among both morphologists and doctors of different specialties. The aim of the study.

Do the psychological effects of vagus nerve stimulation partially mediate vagal pain modulation?
Neurobiology of Pain, 2017 There is preclinical and clinical evidence that vagus nerve stimulation modulates both pain and mood state. Mechanistic studies show brainstem circuitry involved in pain modulation by vagus nerve stimulation, but little is known about possible indirect ...

Without getting under your skin: non-invasive stimulation activates the vagus nerve
Frontiers in NeuroscienceCervical non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) has emerged as a practical neuromodulation approach with FDA-cleared indications in primary headache disorders, yet skepticism persists over whether transcutaneous stimulation can reliably engage vagal
