Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Peripheral Targets
Although vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is nowadays frequently used in the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders including epilepsy, depression, and... -
Enhanced peripheral nerve regeneration by mechano-electrical stimulation
To address limitations in current approaches for treating large peripheral nerve defects, the presented study evaluated the feasibility of functional...

Repetitive high-sustained gravitoinertial stress does not modulate pressure responsiveness to peripheral sympathetic stimulation
PurposeWe evaluated the hypothesis that repetitive gravitoinertial stress would augment the arterial-pressure response to peripheral sympathetic...
