Self-Administration of Right Vagus Nerve Stimulation Activates Midbrain Dopaminergic Nuclei
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Background: Left cervical vagus nerve stimulation (l-VNS) is an FDA-approved treatment for neurological disorders including epilepsy, major depressive disorder, and stroke, and l-VNS is increasingly under investigation for a range of other neurological ...

Treatment of vagus nerve stimulator-induced sleep-disordered breathing: A case series
Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2019 Objective: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a treatment option for patients with drug-resistant seizures, but it is also associated with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB).

Brain Stimulation, 2020 Background: Recent experiments in rats have demonstrated significant effects of VNS on hippocampal excitability but were partially attributed to hypothermia, induced by the applied VNS parameters.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS): Utility in Neuropsychiatric Disorders [PDF]
, 2003 Early in the last century, neuroscientists initially speculated that it might be possible to influence brain activity and associated behaviours by stimulating the vagus nerve in the neck. Several animal studies pointed to this possibility.

Solving the minimum labelling spanning tree problem using hybrid local search [PDF]
, 2007 Given a connected, undirected graph whose edges are labelled (or coloured), the minimum labelling spanning tree (MLST) problem seeks a spanning tree whose edges have the smallest number of distinct labels (or colours).

On the algebras \(VN(H)\) and \(VN(H)^*\) of an ultraspherical hypergroup \(H\)
, 2022 A topological hypergroup \(H\) generalizes in many ways topological groups. In a topological hypergroup, no algebraic operation is assumed on \(H\), most of the results are obtained via the convolution algebra defined on the vector space of Radon measures \(M(H)\).

Vagus nerve stimulation parameters evoke differential neuronal responses in the locus coeruleus
Physiological Reports, 2023 Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is used to treat drug‐resistant epilepsy and depression, with additional applications under investigation. The noradrenergic center locus coeruleus (LC) is vital for VNS effects; however, the impact of varying stimulation ...

European Psychiatry, 2021 Introduction Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) is a neuromodulatory intervention which involves attaching an electrode to the vagus nerve. Studies investigating VNS as an acute treatment method for treatment resistent depression have shown very limited ...
