Why the study?
Does vagus nerve stimulation improve neurophysiological parameters and reduce cellular immune response in the brain in a rat model of systemic inflammation?
Does vagus nerve stimulation improve neurophysiological parameters and reduce cellular immune response in the brain in a rat model of systemic inflammation?
Vagus nerve stimulation attenuates inflammatory responses and preserves brain function in a rat model of severe sepsis-like endotoxemia.
