Treatment-resistant depression.While researchers are still investigating how the vagus nerve is involved in mental health, studies show that vagus nerve stimulation treatments can helpdepressionthat is resistant to treatments like talk therapy or prescription drugs. Experts believe this may be due to a ...
However, due to the unclear nature of the stomach ascending neural pathway, treatment strategies are very limited. The present study identified a complete ascending neural pathway mediated by the vagus nerve, encompassing the NTS, LPB, PVT, and PL, which transmits gastric pain signals. Therefore,...
vagus nerve n. Either of the tenth and longest of the cranial nerves, passing through the neck and thorax into the abdomen and supplying sensation to part of the ear, the tongue, the larynx, and the pharynx, motor impulses to the vocal cords, and motor and secretory impulses to the abdom...
Interventions Eligible participants were randomly assigned 1:1 to vagus nerve preservation distal gastrectomy (VPG) or vagus nerve resection distal gastrectomy (VRG). Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was the incidence of postsurgical gastroparesis. Secondary outcomes included postopera...

What happens if you cut the vagus nerve? Damage to the vagus nerve If the vagus nerve is damaged,nausea, bloating, diarrhea and gastroparesis(in which the stomach empties too slowly) may result. What happens when the vagus nerve is overstimulated?
[28].Auricular acupunctureto stimulate the vagus nerve has even been studied to reduce doses ofgeneral anesthesiaused during surgeries[29]. Given the limitedpharmacotherapyto improve the sensory abnormalities associated with gastroparesis, this points to a potential treatment avenue for the management of...
Neuromodulation by vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) provides therapeutic benefits in multiple medical conditions, including epilepsy and clinical depression, but underlying mechanisms of action are not well understood. Cervical vagus nerve biopsies were procured from transplant organ donors for high resolution ...
