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

Vagus nerve stimulation and inflammation: expanding the scope beyond cytokines
Bioelectronic Medicine, 2022 Approximately 20 years ago it was discovered that the vagus nerve regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine levels and inflammation. Subsequent research using several preclinical models revealed that vagus nerve stimulation evokes a protective decrease in pro ...

Vagus nerve stimulation is a potential treatment for ischemic stroke
Neural Regeneration Research, 2023 Microglia are the brain’s primary innate immune cells, and they are activated and affect pro-inflammatory phenotype or regulatory phenotype after ischemic stroke.

Human vagus nerve branching in the cervical region. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 BACKGROUND:Vagus nerve stimulation is increasingly applied to treat epilepsy, psychiatric conditions and potentially chronic heart failure. After implanting vagus nerve electrodes to the cervical vagus nerve, side effects such as voice alterations and ...
