Non-invasive Access to the Vagus Nerve Central Projections via Electrical Stimulation of the External Ear: fMRI Evidence in Humans.
TL;DR: Findings in humans provide evidence in humans that the central projections of the ABVN are consistent with the "classical" central vagal projections and can be accessed non-invasively via the external ear.

Vagus Nerve and Vagus Nerve Stimulation, a Comprehensive Review: Part III.
TL;DR: Progression in VNS clinical efficacy over time suggests an underlying disease‐modifying neuromodulation, which is an emerging field in neurology.

TL;DR: TVNS can significantly modulate the default mode network (DMN) functional connectivity (FC) in mild or moderate major depressive disorder (MDD) patients; the results provide insights to elucidate the brain mechanism of tVNS treatment for MDD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation Using Functional MRI.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to determine the most effective location for tVNS, and they found that stimulation at the ear canal resulted in the weakest activation of the solitary tract (NTS), the recipient of most afferent vagal projections, and a brainstem nucleus that receives direct input from the NTS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vagus Nerve Stimulation
TL;DR: VNS deserves further study for its potentially favorable effects on cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, metabolic, and other physiologic biomarkers associated with depression morbidity and mortality.

TL;DR: When used in concert with authors' deeper knowledge of an experiment, the TD system provides consistent and comprehensive labels for brain activation foci, which is better than that of the expert group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linear Systems Analysis of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Human V1
TL;DR: Results from three empirical tests support the hypothesis that fMRI responses in human primary visual cortex (V1) depend separably on stimulus timing and stimulus contrast, and the noise in the fMRI data is independent of stimulus contrast and temporal period.

Brain structural and functional abnormalities in mood disorders: implications for neurocircuitry models of depression
TL;DR: Because the MPFC and related limbic structures provide forebrain modulation over visceral control structures in the hypothalamus and brainstem, their dysfunction can account for the disturbances in autonomic regulation and neuroendocrine responses that are associated with mood disorders.
