This anti-TNF-alpha effect of the vagus nerve can be used in the treatment of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, represented by Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis where this cytokine plays a key role. Bioelectronic medicine, via vagus nerve stimulation, may have an interest in this non-...
Respiratory problems are another common symptom of vagus nerve damage. The vagus nerve plays a crucial role in controlling the muscles involved in breathing, so any damage or dysfunction can lead to respiratory difficulties. Individuals with vagus nerve damage may experience shortness of breath, a f...
After losing about 10 pounds, my laughter no longer "pinches" my nerve knocking me unconscious - but my kids keep trying. I can believe that bearing down for a bowel movement could result in a VN massage causing black out. I can believe hard coughing doing the same, or a cancerous ...
Recent pilot clinical trials using implantable bioelectronic devices have demonstrated the efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in adult patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) as an alternative to drug treatments. However, the use of non-invasive VNS should be of interest in adults ...

Lesions of the forestomach distal to the reticulum or involving the abomasum include a diverse group of problems such as lymphosarcoma and other neoplasms, diffuse peritonitis, peritonitis caused by perforating abomasal ulcers, abdominal abscesses, vagus nerve damage, vascular thrombosis secondary to rig...
“Inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and severe central nervous system injury (of which the vagus nerve plays a dominant role) can lead to intestinal mucosal barrier damage, which can cause endotoxin/enterobacteria translocation (movement, or better thought of as escaping to other ...
It has an important role in gastrointestinal function too. It may promote stomach acid production and digestive enzymes while improving intestinal motility and managing bowel movements. Alcohol’s Impact on the Vagus Nerve Your vagus nerve might be impacted greatly by alcohol consumption. Alcohol impact...
Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) has been investigated as a novel neuromodulation tool. Although taVNS is generally considered safe with only mild and transient adverse effects (AEs), those specifically caused by taVNS have not yet been investigated. This systematic review an...
aImportantly, in animal models,decreased activity of the vagus nerve has been implicated in the inflammatory outbursts of colitis induced by depression, and the beneficial effect of tricyclic anti-depressants on inflammatory bowel markers is blunted by vagotomy 重要地,在动物模型中,迷走神经的减少的活动...
