Objectives: Autonomic regulation has been identified as a potential regulator of pain via vagal nerve mediation, assessed through heart rate variability (HRV). Non-invasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) and heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) have been proposed to modulate pain. A limited number of studies compare nVNS and HRVB in persons with chronic pain conditions.

Diagnostic accuracy of heart rate variability as a screening tool for mild neurocognitive disorder.

Background: Mild neurocognitive disorder (mNCD) is recognized as an early stage of dementia and is gaining attention as a significant healthcare problem due to current demographic changes and increasing numbers of patients. Timely detection of mNCD provides an opportunity for early interventions that can potentially slow down or prevent cognitive decline. Heart rate variability (HRV) may be a promising measure, as it has been shown to be sensitive to cognitive impairment.

Article Synopsis
  • The pathogenesis of long COVID (LC) involves uncertainty, complicating the search for effective therapies.
  • The hypothesis suggests that chronic damage to the body's anti-inflammatory mechanisms, particularly through the vagus nerve, HPA axis, and mitochondrial function, plays a crucial role in LC development.
  • The theory posits that SARS-CoV-2 alters these systems at various levels, leading to persistent inflammation due to impaired anti-inflammatory responses from acetylcholine and cortisol, warranting further investigation into glucocorticoid receptor sensitivity and potential long-term epigenetic effects.

Transauricular vagal nerve stimulation suppresses inflammatory responses in the gut and brain in an inflammatory bowel disease model.

December 2024

Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Neuroscience and Neurotechnology Center of Excellence (NÖROM) and Neuropsychiatry Center, Gazi University, Ankara, Türkiye.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a major health problem on a global scale and its treatment is unsatisfactory. We aimed to investigate the effects of transauricular vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS) on inflammation in rats with IBD induced by trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). A total of 36 adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were given TNBS, or vehicle, and tVNS, or sham, every other day for 30 min for 10 days.
