DOI: 10.1007/s00455-019-10051-8
Abstract: The vagal afferent nerves regulate swallowing and esophageal motor reflexes. However, there are still gaps in the understanding of vagal afferent innervation of the esophageal mucosa. Anatomical studies found that the vagal afferent mucosal innervation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2019.113092
Abstract: Dramatic impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function accompanies high-thoracic spinal cord injury (T3-SCI). The vagus nerve contains mechano- and chemosensory fibers as well as the motor fibers necessary for the central nervous system (CNS) control of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2021.04.004
Abstract: BACKGROUND The mechanisms underlying premature ventricular contraction (PVC)-induced cardiomyopathy remain unknown. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) afferent fibers are implicated in the reflex processing of cardiac stress. OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine whether cardiac… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.vph.2018.08.001
Abstract: The lymphatic system has long been known to serve as a highway for migrating leukocytes from peripheral tissue to draining lymph nodes (dLNs) and back to circulation, thereby contributing to the induction of adaptive immunity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41593-018-0211-4
Abstract: In vivo calcium imaging from axons provides direct interrogation of afferent neural activity, informing the neural representations that a local circuit receives. Unlike in somata and dendrites, axonal recording of neural activity—both electrically and optically—has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-67403-w
Abstract: The sensorimotor integration during unconstrained reaching movements in the presence of variable environmental forces remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to quantify how much the primary afferent activity of muscle spindles can… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/a-1997-9382
Abstract: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) with a lumen-apposingmetal stent (LAMS) (Hot Axios; Boston Scientific, USA) effectively manages afferent loop syndrome [1, 2]. The LAMS prevents stent migration and fluid leakage. However, because the distance between the… read more here.
