Vagus nerve stimulation intensity influences motor cortex plasticity

Vagus nerve stimulation intensity influences motor cortex plasticity

Background: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with forelimb motor training enhances reorganization of movement representations in the motor cortex. Previous studies have shown an inverted-U relationship between VNS intensity and plasticity in other brain areas, such that moderate intensity VNS yi...
