Vagus nerve stimulation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:"Anti-inflammatory effect of vagus nerve stimulation in a rat model of inflammatory bowel disease" in Autonomic NeuroScience (2011)
"Vagus nerve stimulation reduced the degree of body weight loss and inflammatory markers as observed above the lesion by histological score and myeloperoxidase quantification. This anti-inflammatory effect was also demonstrated by the improvement of the multivariate index of colitis. These data argue for an anti-inflammatory role of vagus nerve stimulation chronically performed in freely moving rats with colitis and provide potential therapeutic applications for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases."
