Heart period variability during vagal nerve stimulation
Vagal nerve stimulation is an emerging therapy for epilepsy, yet little is known regarding the effects of this stimulation on heart period variability. We selected 10 patients (two female, eight male) who were receiving high-frequency, high-intensity left vagal nerve stimulation for intractable epilepsy. Electrocardiogram data were recorded for a 7 min baseline, 2.5 min of stimulation and a 7 m...
متن کاملInhibition of baroreflex vagal bradycardia by nasal stimulation in rats.
Nasal stimulation provokes hypertension and bradycardia. We report here that such stimulation inhibits baroreflex vagal bradycardia (BVB). In chloralose- and urethan-anesthetized, β-adrenergic receptor-blocked rats, the aortic depressor nerves were cut and electrically stimulated to induce BVB. Nasal application of smoke, warm distilled water, or cold or hot Ringer solution suppressed BVB, but ...
متن کاملthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
Vagal nerve stimulation—the Norwegian experience
The purpose of this open retrospective study was to analyze the efficacy and tolerability of vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) in a Norwegian cohort of referral patients with refractory epileptic seizures. A total of 47 patients have been assessed after a mean follow-up time of 2.7 years. Mean age was 34.4 years, mean duration of epilepsy was 25.3 years. Forty-two patients (89%) had localization-re...
متن کاملNatriuretic peptides like NO facilitate cardiac vagal neurotransmission and bradycardia via a cGMP pathway.
We tested the hypothesis that natriuretic peptide receptors (NPRs) that are coupled to cGMP production act in a similar way to nitric oxide (NO) by enhancing acetylcholine release and vagal-induced bradycardia. The effects of enzyme inhibitors and channel blockers on the action of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain-derived natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) wer...
