Forced normalization after turning off vagus nerve stimulation in Lennox–Gastaut syndrome

open access: yesEpilepsy 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 ...

Neural Stimulation Hardware for the Selective Intrafascicular Modulation of the Vagus Nerve

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023
The neural stimulation of the vagus nerve is able to modulate various functions of the parasympathetic response in different organs. The stimulation of the vagus nerve is a promising approach to treating inflammatory diseases, obesity, diabetes, heart ...

A Comprehensive Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Depression

open access: yesNeuromodulation (Malden, Mass.), 2021
Objectives: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is reemerging as an exciting form of brain stimulation, due in part to the development of its noninvasive counterpart transcutaneous auricular VNS.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Behavioral Neuroscience Reports, 2014
The vagus nerve is a major component of the autonomic nervous system, has an important role in the regulation of metabolic homeostasis, and plays a key role in the neuroendocrine-immune axis to maintain homeostasis through its afferent and efferent pathways.

Organ-Specific Activation of the Gastric Branch of the Efferent Vagus Nerve by Ghrelin in Urethane-Anesthetized Rats

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014
.: Ghrelin plays multiple physiological roles such as growth hormone secretion and exerting orexigenic actions; however, its physiological roles in the electrical activity of autonomic nerves remain unclear.

Clinical perspectives on vagus nerve stimulation: present and future

open access: yesClinical science, 2022
The vagus nerve, the great wanderer, is involved in numerous processes throughout the body and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has the potential to modulate many of these functions.

Fetal topography of branches of the cervical and thoracic divisions of the vagus nerves

open access: yesZaporožskij 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.

The vagus nerve and thirst

open access: yesPhysiology & 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.

Human organ donor-derived vagus nerve biopsies allow for well-preserved ultrastructure and high-resolution mapping of myelinated and unmyelinated fibers

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The vagus nerve provides motor, sensory, and autonomic innervation of multiple organs, and electrical vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) provides an adjunctive treatment option for e.g. medication-refractory epilepsy and treatment-resistant depression.
