Erratum to: Effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation on impaired glucose tolerance: a pilot randomized study
BACKGROUND Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is a pre-diabetic state of hyperglycemia that is associated with insulin resistance, increased risk of type II diabetes, and cardiovascular pathology. Recently, investigators hypothesized that decreased vagus nerve activity may be the underlying mechanism of metabolic syndrome including obesity, elevated glucose levels, and high blood pressure. METH...
متن کاملVagus nerve stimulation in the treatment of nervous system disease: a review article
The vagus nerve (VN), the longest cranial nerve and an essential part of the parasympathetic system, connects the central nervous system to respiratory, cardiovascular, immune, gastrointestinal, and endocrine systems and is involved in the maintenance of homeostasis by controlling these systems. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is related to any method that would stimulate the vagal nerve via elec...

متن کاملTranscutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Neurological and Mental Disorders: From Germination to Future
Auricular therapies have been applied to diseases since ancient times. Inspired by auricular acupuncture of TCM, and to overcome the disadvantages classic vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), we developed transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). It was applied to neurological and mental disorders, and also shows a bright prospect to these diseases.
متن کاملTranscutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation for pediatric epilepsy: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
BACKGROUND Recently, clinical observations reported the potential benefit of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) for pediatric epilepsy. Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (ta-VNS) is a newer non-invasive VNS, making it more accessible for treating pediatric epilepsy, yet there is limited clinical evidence for its effectiveness. METHODS/DESIGN A three-center, randomized, parallel, con...
