Vagus nerve stimulation modulates hippocampal inflammation caused by continuous stress in rats

Uk Namgung et al.

Summary: This study suggests that vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) may be involved in modulating the pathophysiological processes caused by continuous stress (CS) in the brain. VNS can regulate the production of proinflammatory cytokines and the cholinergic anti-inflammatory activity, thus improving pain sensitivity and depressive-like behavior.

Summary: In this study, Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) treatment following cardiac arrest (CA) was found to improve neurologic outcomes by promoting cerebral blood flow (CBF) recovery, reducing oxidative stress and autophagy levels. The VNS group showed better behavioral performance and less neuronal death, indicating a potential therapeutic strategy for post-CA brain injury.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation and Atrial Fibrillation: Revealing the Paradox

Rohit K. Kharbanda et al.

Summary: The cardiac autonomic nervous system plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation. Neuromodulation therapies targeting the vagus nerve have shown promising outcomes, but can have both pro-arrhythmogenic and anti-arrhythmogenic effects. Low-level vagus nerve stimulation has emerged as an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation, with the anatomical site and stimulation settings playing a crucial role in its efficacy.

Effect of vagus nerve stimulation paired with rehabilitation for upper limb function improvement after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Kehong Zhao et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) paired with rehabilitation on upper limb function recovery after stroke. The meta-analysis results showed that VNS had a significant effect on Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) scores compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference in adverse events associated with device implantation between the invasive VNS and control groups.

Summary: Cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease is caused by disturbances in neuronal circuits and can be improved by vagal nerve stimulation, which enhances synaptic plasticity and reduces inflammatory signaling. Non-invasive VNS shows promise as a therapy for early AD, but further research is needed to determine its effectiveness and compare it with invasive VNS.

Christopher W. Austelle et al.

Summary: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has a long history, with literature mentioning it as early as the early 1900s. Initially gaining attention in the 1980s, VNS showed promising mood effects during epilepsy trials in the 1990s, leading to FDA approval for depression in 2005. Advances in understanding the mechanism of action, including neuroimaging techniques, have furthered the field of VNS therapy.

Brain plasticity and vagus nerve stimulation

Marius Keute et al.

Summary: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) enhances the effect of motor rehabilitation training on functional recovery by fostering a neurochemical milieu that facilitates synaptic plasticity and supports reinforcement mechanisms. Optimal VNS delivery is time-critical and parameter space needs to be titrated for effect maximization, with promising results seen in both invasive and non-invasive VNS studies in stroke patients.
