Despite the vagus nerve stimulator (VNS) being used in neuroscience, it has recently been
highlighted that it has cardioprotective functions. However, many studies related to VNS are …

The vagus nerve is a major component of the autonomic nervous system and plays a critical
role in many body functions including for example, speech, swallowing, heart rate and …

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are accompanied by autonomic nervous system
(ANS) imbalance which is characterized by decreased vagal tone. Preclinical and clinical …

I mbalance of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems is probably the most
prevalent autonomic mechanism underlying many a rrhythmias. Recently, vagus nerve …

Autonomic imbalance with increased adrenergic and reduced parasympathetic activity is
involved in the development and progress of heart failure (HF). Experimental data have …

The autonomic nervous system exerts a fine beat-to-beat regulation of cardiovascular
functions and is consequently involved in the onset and progression of many cardiovascular …

Vagus nerve stimulation was performed experimentally for the first time more than 150 years
ago. In the 1980s and 1990s, vagus nerve stimulation was shown, both in the anesthetized …

Autonomic dysfunction and chronic inflammation contribute to the pathogenesis and
progression of several cardiovascular diseases (CVD), such as heart failure with preserved …

Autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction is a well-known feature of cardiovascular
diseases (CVDs). Studies on heart rate variability (HRV), a non-invasive method useful in …

Enhancing vagal tone by delivering electrical stimulation to the vagal nerves (VNS) is
emerging as a promising novel therapy in heart failure. In addition, VNS is already an FDA …
