Different Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation Parameters Modulate the Anti-Inflammatory Effects on Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Inflammation in Mice

Yoon-Young Go et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effects of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) on systemic inflammation. The results showed that taVNS with a frequency of 15 Hz had a higher anti-inflammatory capacity than taVNS with 25 Hz, suggesting the importance of taVNS parameter selection in acute inflammation treatment.

Summary: Abdominal surgery can activate immune cells in the bowel wall, leading to inflammation and bowel paralysis, resulting in postoperative ileus. Major surgical trauma may also cause systemic inflammatory response syndrome, leading to multi-organ dysfunction.

Mechanisms underlying antidepressant effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation on CUMS model rats based on hippocampal α7nAchR/NF-κB signal pathway

Jun-ying Wang et al.

Summary: The anti-inflammatory signal of the vagus nerve mediated by alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (alpha 7nAchR) plays a critical role in the antidepressant effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). The hippocampus region regulates emotions and has the most distribution of alpha 7nAchR, indicating its involvement in the taVNS antidepressant effect.

Use of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation as an Adjuvant Therapy for the Depressive Symptoms of COVID-19: A Literature Review

Zhi-Peng Guo et al.

Summary: COVID-19 not only affects the respiratory system, but also interacts with the cardiovascular, nervous, renal, and immune systems, increasing morbidity in patients with underlying cardiometabolic conditions. Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) can improve immune function and depressive symptoms through various pathways, making it an important treatment option.

Vagal Nerve Stimulation-Modulation of the Anti-Inflammatory Response and Clinical Outcome in Psoriatic Arthritis or Ankylosing Spondylitis

C. Brock et al.

Summary: This study investigated the acute effect of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation on patients with psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. The results showed that the stimulation had anti-inflammatory effects, reducing disease activity and CRP levels in both conditions.

Hemodynamic and anti-inflammatory effects of early esmolol use in hyperkinetic septic shock: a pilot study

Bruno Levy et al.

Summary: The Esmosepsis study aimed to investigate the effects of Esmolol on heart rate control in septic shock patients. The results showed that in the early phase of septic shock, reducing heart rate using Esmolol was associated with an increased risk of hypotension and decreased cardiac index, despite adequate tissue perfusion.

Cynthia Aranow et al.

Summary: In this study, non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation was shown to significantly reduce pain, fatigue, and joint scores in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Further studies are needed to evaluate the intervention and its mechanisms.
