Vagus Nerve Stimulation Amplifies Task-Induced Cerebral Blood Flow Increase
BackgroundVagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an established palliative surgical treatment for refractory epilepsy. Recently, pairing VNS with rehabilitation received growing attention for their joint effect on neural plasticity.

Self-Administration of Right Vagus Nerve Stimulation Activates Midbrain Dopaminergic Nuclei
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
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).

Vagus nerve stimulation parameters evoke differential neuronal responses in the locus coeruleus
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 ...

On Frame Asynchronous Coded Slotted ALOHA: Asymptotic, Finite Length, and Delay Analysis [PDF]
We consider a frame asynchronous coded slotted ALOHA (FA-CSA) system for uncoordinated multiple access, where users join the system on a slot-by-slot basis according to a Poisson random process and, in contrast to standard frame synchronous CSA (FS-CSA),
