DOI: 10.1002/dneu.23019
Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a multifactorial neurodevelopmental condition defined by social deficits, stereotypical or repetitive behaviors, and anxiety. This study evaluates the therapeutic potential of transauricular vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS) in a valproic acid… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00464-025-12028-1
Abstract: Accurate intraoperative detection of nerves in critical anatomic regions during oncologic resection, such as the vagal nerve, is crucial. The vagal nerve regulates many internal organs and is at risk during surgeries, potentially leading to… read more here.
