Vagus Nerve Stimulation Affects Pain Perception in Depressed Adults

open access: yesPain Research and Management, 2005
BACKGROUND: Previous research suggests that vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) affects pain perception in epilepsy patients, with acute VNS decreasing pain thresholds and chronic VNS treatment increasing pain thresholds.

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-58, Spring 2025.
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

The effect of MS procaine injection on VNS-induced HPC field potential and related power-frequency (FFT) histogram.

open access: yes, 2018
(A) VNS is marked with a horizontal line. The parameters of VNS are marked below this line. Arrows indicate the power-frequency histograms calculated from the analog examples of hippocampal field potentials taken pre-injection of procaine (control), 15 ...

The impact of private equity acquisition of US hospitals on patient outcomes: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Private equity (PE) firms are increasingly acquiring US hospitals. While PE ownership may infuse capital and managerial expertise, restructuring by organizations with limited patient‐care experience raises safety concerns. The effect of PE ownership on hospital outcomes remains poorly defined.

Cognitive neurobehavior and synaptic plasticity after vagus nerve stimulation in female rats: Interaction between estrous cycle and neurostimulation

open access: yesBioelectronic Medicine
A single session of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has been shown to improve cognition in male rodents, but the influence of sex on the effects of VNS on behavior and synaptic plasticity are poorly understood.

Noninvasive or minimally invasive neuromodulation in animal models of acute ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis assessed the cytoprotective effects of neuromodulation in preclinical models of ischemic stroke. Pooled analyses showed that neuromodulation significantly reduced infarct volume and improved neurological outcomes.

The effect of MS gallamine injection on VNS-induced HPC field potential and related power/frequency (FFT) histogram.

open access: yes, 2018
(A) VNS was marked with a horizontal line. Parameters of VNS were marked below this line. Arrows indicate the power-frequency histograms calculated from analog examples of hippocampal field potentials taken pre-injection of gallamine (control) and 15 min
