Vagus Nerve Stimulator Implantation in Children [PDF]
Archives of Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery, 2002 Vagus nerve stimulation was approved in 1997 as an adjunctive treatment of partial-onset seizures refractory to medical therapy. Subsequent to the initial clinical trials, few studies have been published specifically addressing perioperative management issues.To review the operative technique and perioperative management of patients undergoing vagus ...

Fluorescence Guided Surgery in Gastric Cancer: What Do We Have and What Can We Do?
Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objective Fluorescence imaging has emerged as a valuable adjunct in gastric surgery, enhancing resection precision and oncologic outcomes. However, the use of indocyanine green (ICG) remains controversial due to uncertainties in efficacy and administration. A lack of standardized protocols persists.

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 ...

tVNS Increases Liking of Orally Sampled Low-Fat Foods: A Pilot Study
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020 Recently a role for the vagus nerve in conditioning food preferences was established in rodents. In a prospective controlled clinical trial in humans, invasive vagus nerve stimulation shifted food choice toward lower fat content. Here we explored whether

Solving the Amyloid Paradox: Unveiling the Complex Pathogenicity of Amyloid Fibrils
Aggregate, EarlyView.This review addresses the gap between strong evidence for the involvement of amyloid fibrils in neurodegeneration and the failure of anti‐amyloid therapies, a phenomenon herein termed the “amyloid paradox.” To address this paradox, we provide a comprehensive summary of the current understanding of fibrils' pathogenic properties and mechanisms ...
