Short-term transcutaneous non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation may reduce disease activity and pro-inflammatory cytokines in rheumatoid arthritis: results of a pilot study

Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 2020
Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory disease. Studies suggest that pro-inflammatory cytokines may be attenuated by the vagus nerve through the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway.

The Vagus Nerve

1976
The vagus nerve, the 10th cranial nerve, has a superficial origin from the medulla oblongata with several rootlets which merge together while passing through the jugular foramen. It has two obvious bulges, a smaller one called the jugular (or superior) ganglion and a larger one immediately caudal to it called the nodose (or inferior) ganglion.

Neurilemmoma of the Vagus Nerve in the Neck

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1968
A case of neurilemmoma of the vagus nerve in the neck is described, in which excision with preservation of the nerve was possible. Attention is drawn to the typical clinical picture presented by these tumours. Recognition of this should make it possible to suspect the diagnosis preperatively and so greatly reduce the risks of operative damage to the ...

Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Patients With Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: A Feasibility Trial

Neuromodulation (Malden, Mass.), 2020
Preclinical studies have shown that surgically implanted vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) promotes recovery of consciousness and cognitive function following experimental traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Vagus nerve (X)

1995
The vagus nerve (X) consists of autonomic, sensory and motor fibers. It emerges by six to eight roots which leave the neuraxis via the posterior lateral sulcus of the medulla oblongata (Fig. 10.1; 10.2).

Vagus Nerve Stimulation and Headache

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 2015
Neuromodulation is an emerging area in headache management. Through neurostimulation, multiple brain areas can be modulated to alleviate pain, hence reducing the pharmacological need. In this review, we discuss the recent development of the vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) for headache management.

Vagus Nerve (Cranial Nerve X)

2003
The vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) is a mixed nerve that originates in the medulla and accounts for most of the visceral innervation of the body. It carries somatic efferents that innervate the muscles of the pharynx and larynx; parasympathetic efferents that innervate the heart, smooth muscle, exocrine glands of the respiratory, and most of the ...

Vagus Nerve

2014
Literally meaning wandering, the vagus nerve (tenth cranial nerve) is an incredibly complex cranial nerve. It originates from four nuclei in the medulla and gives rise to fibers containing branchial motor, visceral sensory, visceral motor, special and general sensory fibers.
