Transcutaneous Sonography for Detection of the Cervical Vagus Nerve
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2021 Cervical vagus nerve is not identified by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Transcutaneous sonography may be the best imaging study to evaluate the cervical vagus nerve.

Neurofibrosarcoma of the vagus nerve [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1983 Summary A patient whose symptoms of cough and intermittent hoarseness were due to a neurofibrosarcoma of the vagus nerve is described. Attention is drawn to the rarity of the tumour and a short review of the pathology and treatment of neurofibrosarcoma is discussed.

Therapeutic Potential of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The vagus nerve is a mixed nerve, comprising 80% afferent fibers and 20% efferent fibers. It allows a bidirectional communication between the central nervous system and the digestive tract. It has a dual anti-inflammatory properties via activation of the

The role of the vagus nerve during fetal development and its relationship with the environment [PDF]
, 2021 The autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulatory capacity begins before birth as the sympathetic and parasympathetic activity contributes significantly to the fetus' development. Several studies have shown how vagus nerve is involved in many vital processes
